Chloe is sitting on one of the chairs sipping water. Juan thinks that it's vodka. By the look on his face, he is hoping that he could get lucky today.
But little did he know that Nero switched the vodka he offered to her with water.
They let them believe that Chloe is drinking alcohol and even Nero and his men pretended to get drunk as well.
Juan is enjoying himself with a woman currently sitting on his lap and who is giggling at his silly jokes.
He already drank half a bottle of whiskey. By the drooping lazy look in his eyes, one can say that he is drunk.
Everyone around them is laughing and talking among themselves. They are all drunk to the point that they couldn't stand straight.
It's already 12 in the middle of the night, but Nero decided to wait for a little longer, as the number of people in the house is more than he expected them to be.
He wanted to kill Juan right here and right now, but it's a risk he is not willing to take
Juan is furious after learning that he was tricked. He couldn't believe that Chloe escaped."How? How did it happen? Who helped her and why? We killed Nero. Now it's just that old man Luca Vitiello manages that outfit. Then who is cunning enough to help her get out of here? " Juan yelled with frustration.Luis winced at the intensity of Juan's voice. He is scared out of his mind. But Luis has a person in mind, who can pull this off seamlessly. But as far as he understood Juan, he doesn't like to listen to anyone when he is angry. So he promptly kept his mouth shut.Juan is breaking everything he could get his hands on and it's making everyone around him uncomfortable. They are scared that he might kill any of them in a fit of rage.Just then, one of his men came running back."What is it?" Juan barked at him."Boss, I cannot find Lucas and his men anywhere, " he revealed, making Juan Fernando frown with irritation.
The news of Nero being alive hit the internet and the world like a storm. Like Nero said, people were getting comfortable thinking that the man who can command them with just a nod of his head is no more. But when the news of Nero being alive hit them, they shook with fear.Now they cannot do as they please. At least not in the New York outfit. In the Vitiello Mansion, Luca, Emma, and Mia left a couple of hours ago. Mia wanted to stay for a couple more days, but both Nero and Luca were firm. They wanted her safe and back on the island. Sending Chloe to the island is out of option because Juan is after her and it might endanger everyone on the island if the location is comprised.As they were so tired both Nero and Chloe dozed off after lunch. Nero wanted to go to work, but he couldn't leave Chloe so soon after what she has gone through.So he too laid down beside her, even though he couldn't sleep. His body is tired, but his mind is res
Chloe is waiting for Nero to come out of his office for the past one hour. Half an hour ago Matteo left the house and she locked the door after him. It's just Chloe and Nero now. The guards are guarding the door outside and the cook left a couple of hours ago. Her mind kept wandering back to his tensed frame. She is not naive. She understood something is bothering him, but she is not sure if it is Juan or something else. She waited for another half an hour without any sign of Nero. She sighed heavily and decided to go check on him herself. Slowly she walked towards his office and knocked on the door. But no one answered it. She frowned but decided to open it anyway. She opened the door and entered the room, which is basked in darkness. The moonlight streaming from the window behind his desk is the only light in the room. She can see his dark frame sitting on his chair, and his eyes are closed. By the way, his body is still and his fists
Nero carried Chloe towards their room and gently let her feet touch the ground. She stood in the middle of the room facing him. He tugged at her clothes and helped her to get undressed.Her t-shirt, jeans, innerwear touched the ground one after the other. She stood naked in front of him. He caressed her body like she is precious to him. She closed her eyes at the feel of his hands over her body.He bent down and softly kissed her eyes, forehead, cheeks, and then her lips. He didn't deepen the kiss, but it's rather a peck. He let the back of his palm move from her neck down towards the sides of her breasts and then her waist before he moved away from her.He stood more than a couple of feet away from her and slowly began to unbutton his shirt. He removed his shirt and then his slacks followed by his briefs.Then he carried her towards the bathroom and then made her stand under the shower. He cleaned her body without leaving an inch. And then he
Nero's plan to suffocate Juan worked out well. He was busy with implementing his plan for the past one week. He barely had time for Chloe. But every night he will come home to her and sleep beside her. But by the time Chloe wakes up, he would have already left for work.He always asks if she had breakfast, lunch and dinner. He skipped most of his meals to ensure that Juan is helpless and is on the verge of desperation. His guilt that he couldn't protect Chloe in the first place is what is driving him to finish Juan off before he could plan to hurt Chloe again. Nero is determined to make an example out of Juan.Nero advised Chloe to rest for a few days, as she had suffered so much both physically and mentally. This time she agreed without a fight."You are mine to take care of. If you agree to that, then stay home and rest. You can start working again when you finish your education. You don't have to struggle so much anymore. Concentrate on your studies for
Chloe is sitting in her class, listening to her professor. She typed down the key points in her laptop. She is aware of the stares of the men around her. But she is not interested in any of them. The one she wants dissapeared like smoke in the air.That day one year ago, all she remembered is the unbearable pain and then she woke up to a worried Mia hovering near her bed in the hospital. She doesn't know what happened and how she ended up in the hospital. But all Mia shared with her is that, I passed out and she admitted Chloe in the hospital.Since that day forth, neither she saw Nero nor he answered any of her calls. It's as if he is just a figment of her imagination now a days. Even Mia is not talking about her brother anymore. Which is even more depressing.After her class, Chloe packed up her stuff and walked out."Hey, are you done?" Mia asked, walking up beside her."Ya, I am done for the day" Ch
After 3 years"Dr Chloe, you have a patient waiting for you in your cabin" nurse Lisa gave her a heads up, as soon as she stepped outside the elevator on the second floor."Thank you Lisa" Chloe smiled at the nurse.Chloe is now a successful physiotherapist working in a big hospital in the city. She worked as an intern in this same hospital and they hired her directly after completing her masters.Chloe would be lying if she said she is surprised to see her immediate Boss David waiting for her in her cabin. Since she started working in this hospital as an intern two years ago, David is after her.He is handsome, successful, kind, and very persistent. He confessed his feelings for her more than a hundred times and every time her answer remained the same.'No'Her heart indeed is stuck up in the past with certain someone. She is sure he is happy with his wife and kids. But she couldn't convince her heart that he moved on and she s
Nero is looking at Chloe's picture, which he always carries with him in his purse. Matteo is standing in front of his boss's desk with a frown.He looked at his boss, who looks so cold and unapproachable. Since he separated himself from miss Chloe, he became colder and meaner. Matteo knows the real reason behind his boss's behavior. But he himself is at the receiving end of his anger for far more times than he could count in these past four years.But it is what it is. His boss is now immersed himself in boxing matches with people more stronger and skilled than he is. To Matteo's surprise, Nero never lost a single fight. His anger and frustration are fueling him and no one could defeat him."So you are telling me that after four years Juan is regrouping and might go after Chloe again?" Nero repeated Matteo's earlier words in a deep tone.Matteo tried his best not to flinch or show his fear in front of his boss. He is loyal to Nero and it means that he cou
