AUTHOR POV Dave smiled at Landers. But the smile on his face was really scary. It sent shivers down one's spine. Landers could not help but crawl back. "You....you......" "You're happy right?!" Dave asked while still smiling, he kept moving closer to Landers.Although Landers was scared, he stopped trying to get away. He had been raised in the mafia all his life and he had learned not to ever run away like a coward. Even if he's going to die, he should at least face it with his head held high up like the man that he is. "Yes of course! I know that you and Marco are probably going to kill me and make sure my wife and son suffer an even worse fate but I don't care at all! I'm sure that Marco's woman will be dying with me. It's such a wonderful way to die! I think that I've avenged my father by dying like this. There's nothing better than this feeling!" Landers said. "That's great in theory but the thing is you Landers are not going to die!" Dave said. Landers was confused and sc
AUTHOR POV If only he had listened to her....if only he had let her leave when she told him she wants to to leave....why did he have to be so stubborn?! Just then, the operating theater door was pushed open and a doctor came rushing out. He rushed to the doctor. "Doctor, how are they? How is my wife and my child doing? Are the both of them going to survive? You have to save the both of them!" Marco yelled at the doctor. Marco felt like that baby was the only thing connecting him to Mia now. If she still has the baby, she won't leave for it's sake. But if the baby is gone, knowing the kind of woman Mia is, the only thing that's left for the both of us is seperation. He just can't stand the thought of that. He can't be seperated from MiaAlthough he can definitely make her stay, she won't listen to him. She will do anything and everything to get awayThe doctor looked at Marco with sympathy in his eyes and shook his head. "I'm really sorry sir but we've tried our best. The mother h
CHAPTER 118AUTHORMia... Mia...Mis...why didn't he just listen to her when she told him that she wanted to leave? If he had listened to her, then all of this won't have happened. And that Landers, Marco swore that he will never let him go! He'll make sure that he tortures him and make him pay for everything that he has done!Just then, Dave came running into the hospital. Marco knew that Dave did not follow him out because he personally wanted to take care of Landers himself so he didn't ask him. He trusted him to teach Landers a lesson while still keeping him alive. He can't just die yet. Dave walked over to Marco and sat beside him. "How's she?" Dave asked. He averted his eyes as he talked to Marco. He felt a bit guilty how things had turned out. He knew that it was his fault actually. He was the one who did not consider her life. It wasn't that he didn't think that things could do wrong or that he was too confident, it was just that Mia's live never mattered much to him anywa
CHAPTER 119AUTHOR"Boss...I was just thinking...don't you think that you should just let her go? She is going to be really hurt by the death of her baby. I know that you feel guilty for what happened to her but you can't change what has happened now. Since she can't be with you anymore...let het go. Give her some compensation so that she will keep her mouth shut. In a while, she will forget about this experience!" Dave said. Marco looked at Dave like he had lost his mind. "Do you even know what you are talking about?" He asked him. Dave shrugged. "I am just trying to do what's best for you sir. Mia is not good for you and that is the truth. You are starting to fall in love with her and she's starting to affect your life and decisions. You can't let that happen at all. You don't need anyone who will just be a weakness in your life Sir!" Dave said. "I think that you're crazy Dave! Who told you that I am in love with her?" Marco asked Dave. He is in love with Mia? Why didn't he know
CHAPTER 120AUTHOR"Dave...I don't know what you have been thinking or who put it in your head that I am going to have anything to do with Isbaella but that's just a lie! She and I were already over a long time ago! It's never going to happen between us. And Mia....don't ever talk about her like that again!" Marco said. He was still coming to terms with the fact that he is in love with her. But he won't let his guards talk about her like that. Not even someone who was as close to him as Dave is. Dave nodded his head. Since his boss had already told him to stop, he won't be bringing it up anymore. ....."What?! She was shot?!" Isabella said to the person on the other end of her phone. "Okay. I got it. I will be there! I have to at least see her face for myself!" Isabella said. Anna looked at Isbaella after she had ended the call. "What happened?" Anna asked. Isabella smirked triumphantly. "Mia was in an accident. She was shot. She was pregnant and she lost the baby!" Isabella sa
CHAPTER 121MARCONo one even told me if she has any hopes of surviving this. I felt like I was the biggest asshole in the world. All of this is my fault...If only I had not been so stubborn. If only I let her leave when she said that she wanted to leave...There was no guessing now for me....I just have to wait for whatever it is that the doctors had to say. About thirty more minutes later, a doctor walked out of the operating theatre. He had a sombre look on his face and I could not help but feel scared. Did something happen to her? Is she going to survive this? I rushed over to him. "Doctor...what happened to my wife? Is she going to survive this?" I asked the doctor. He took off his face mask. "Sir...your wife survived the operation. But we can't tell if there will be any complications. We need to wait for her to wake up first before we can do a more comprehensive test!" The doctor said.."What do you mean you don't know her condition? How can you not know her condition! I t
CHAPTER 122MARCOI turned to see my sister and Isbaella walking over to me. They both had solemn looks on thier faces. I did not have the strength to think about whether the looks on thier faces were sincere or not. "We heard about what happened...we are really sorry that something like this could happen....she did not deserve it" Anna said as she shook her head ..Anna had never liked Mia before and I knew that Mia wasn't someone who forgot about thier grudges just because something happened to the other person. In fact, she's more likely to rejoice that something had happened to her. "I am sorry too Marco. She did not deserve this to happen to her. I heard that she was pregnant. It's a shame that she lost the baby" Isabella said..I took a good look at her face. Anna may have done a good job hiding her gloating but Isbaella could not do that. It was clear that she was here to gloat. "What are the both of you doing here? And who told you that Mia was in an accident?" I asked them
AUTHOR POV She gave Marco a glare and then she ran away dramatically .Marco rolled his eyes. Thank goodness she's gone!His sister was still standing there giving Marco an angry look"Do you seriously have to be this much of a jerk to her? All that she ever did was love you. And she is still worrying about you right now I'm thinking of how she is going to help you. She is even willing to talk to her father for your sick if that means that you will be okay. Even if you don't like or don't you think that you should appreciate the things that she does for you?" Anna asked him. "You don't need to beat around the bush Anna. You and I know that you are just here to find out if I was attacked or not and to find out if you have a chance to take over. I can assure you that I am not going to die anytime soon so whatever plans you have of taking over you can forget about them because it is never going to happen" he said to her..Anna's face burned in embarrassment. Probably angry that she ha
AUTHOR POV "What happened? Is Marco on his way here?" Isabella turned to him and asked. "What exactly did you say to Marco? He already rescued Danielle!" Mia's eyes perked up when she heard this. Her heart beat fast against her chest as she thought of her sister. She felt happy that Marco had saved her. She should have known that Marco would never abandon her. No matter what, he was going to come help her. Isabella turned to glare at Mia. "What the hell are you laughing about?! Do you think that Marco will come here and save you? In case you don't know, we already have this place surrounded! You won't be able to get out without us! Even if he does come here to save you, he still won't be able to do it. So forget about leaving this place!" Isabella yelled at Mia. "Don't worry Isabella. I believe that Marco will have a way to save me! I believe that he is going to get me out of here alive. I don't need you to tell me anything!" Mia said to Isabella. "You are just delusional if yo
MIA POVWhen I opened my eyes, I immediately felt myself tied to a chair. I looked around the darkness, trying to make out my surroundings. I tried to make sense of what was going on but I could not understand it. I had been sad after Marco told me that you won't be able to trust me after what I had done and I had cried my eyes out for a few hours before I stopped. I ended up going to sleep after I was done crying. So how did I end up here ? Was Marco the one who brought me here? He told me that he won't forgive me but it doesn't mean that he would be so cold to me right? He won't do this to me. "Hello....is there anyone here? Please.... please somebody come help me. Marco, I am sorry for what I did. I know that you are mad at me. I know that you hate me but I promise you that I will never do that again. I will always tell you the truth from now on. I won't keep anything from you. I thought you said that you loved me. So why are you doing this to me? Can't you just forgive me?"
ISABELLA POVI lay on m bed thinking about the words that my father had been saying these past few days and how he was going to force me to go abroad. I cussed him in my head. Just because he was weak does not mean that I was weak too. I was never going to leave this place if I didn't get my revenge. News had reached me that Marco and Mia were preparing to get married and I no longer felt anything for Marco except extreme hatred right now. Who does he even think he is to reject me and to go after someone like Mia? There are so many other people who would give anything to have me in their lives but he pushed me aside for that woman and he is even going to marry her. I don't think that I had ever been this embarrassed in my life before. I have to get my revenge on him if I am ever going to let go of what he has done. I was still fantasizing about my revenge when my phone rang. I picked it up and saw that it was the number of the person who had promised me to get revenge on Mia and Ma
AUTHOR POV Mia was the only one left in the room with Marco. He still at that blank expressionless look on his face and it made her really scared what is he thinking? "Marco, I know that you are mad at me full stop and I can understand if you hate me full stop in fact I know that I don't deserve a chance to apologize to you but I just want to tell you that I am sorry. At the beginning I was really going to do what they asked me to do because I didn't know you and because I just wanted to save my sister. My parents had just tired and I didn't want to lose my sister along with my parents. But then I started to fall in love with you and I feel too guilty every single day that I spent with you. But I still did not know how I was supposed to talk to you about this or even bring this issue up. I felt that I was going to lose you and I really did not want to lose you. But then, I started to think that you were going to abandon me anyway once you find out the reason why I was with you in t
MIA POVI was in my bedroom pacing up and down. I had no idea what I was going to do or how I was going to get Marco to see that I really did not mean to hurt him. The worst part was that I did not even know what he was feeling about all of this. I had no idea if he was mad because he just asked me to go back to my room in a calm voice. Was he planning to kick me out of his life for lying to him or was he planning to torture me before he let me go? I was still worrying about this when my door was pushed open and someone barged in angrily. "What are you doing here?" I asked her. "I think I should be the one asking you that question. What are you doing? No, just tell me exactly what it is that you are trying to do Mia. You have already been exposed. You've been trying to kill my brother ever since you were with him. Since he already found out about it, you should be getting the heck out of here right now! But you are still here and you are still pretending to be the victim! You know
MARCO POVI looked at Mia with a cold gaze that made her shiver. She was probably wondering what I was he going to do to her. "Get out and go to your room Mia" I said coldly. Mia looked at me with a confused look on her face. She looked like she had more to say but she bowed her head and just walked out slowly. "Marco! What the hell are you doing right now? You should be kicking her out and making sure that she can never step a foot into this house again! Do you not realise the extent of the damage that she would have caused to you if I did not find out about what she has been doing? Even if she was indeed doing all of this to save her sister and even if she did care about you, your life is very important. Her sister's life is not the only important life here. Are you really going to forgive such a crime?" Anna asked me. I glared at her as she said this. I knew that she wasn't saying all of this just because she cared about me but because she wanted to get rid of Mia. Anna must
MIA POVThey never cared about me before and thet won't care now. Don't worry, I will never let her break the both of us up" he said..I shook my head. "That's not it...Anna is right" I said. Marco looked at me in shock. "What are you talking about Mia? What do you mean by Anna is right? I said that you don't need to be scared. If she really did frame you then I am going to stop at nothing to expose her. I thought that she was going to stop since I already taught Isabella a lesson. But Anna doesn't want to listen. She seems to want to go on the same path as Isabella so I am going to make it easier for her" Marco said. I was sobbing loudly now. I could not keep it in my heart anymore. "No, you don't understand Marco. Anna really did not do anything wrong. It was all me. I have been lying to you about where I came from. Remember I told you that my parents died in a motor accident and my sister and I were the only ones left in my family? I lied about that my parents did die but they
MIA POVI really don't want to hurt your brother at all. As you said he has done a lot for me and I love him very much. I won't be able to live if he dies"Anna looked at me with disgust in her eyes as I said this. She had always looked at me with disgust because she look down on me and thought that I will never be good enough for her brother but it was a different kind of disgust this time. It was as if I was dead and she could not stand to look at me any longer. "Do do you think that I am an idiot? Or do you really take my brother and I for fools and believe that we will believe whatever nonsense you tell us ? there was money I mentioned to which means that you are doing this willingly if you are going to get money from them. You know what? I don't want to talk to you anymore. Marco is the one who should deal with this because he was the one who refused to listen to me no matter what I said. He believed that you are the best person on Earth and he did not want to accept that y
MIA POVI was in the bathroom for a long time. Seeing all of those wedding gowns but a lot of memory for m. There was a time that my sister and I had talked about our wedding and we had said that we both wanted to be the bridesmaid at each other's wedding. We were so excited talking about it back then. But now she has been kidnapped and I don't know if I would get to go through with this marriage or not. My entire head was a mess as I thought of the many ways that this could go wrong. I wanted to just run away but I can't do that. My sister is still in the hands of those people and I love Marco too much to just leave him without a word. I decided to go back to Anna. I knew that she was probably bad mouthing me with her friend but that was the least of my worries then. As soon as I got there however, I met her rambling about me. "You can never tell what is going on in the heads of these women. But since I now know what is going on, I am not going to let this be. I am going to ex
