Alessandro is looking at his Livi, who is sleeping peacefully. Despite gaining a little color on her cheeks, she is still not the same Livi. She lost some weight and he felt her bones poking his arms when he carried her inside their room. She looks fragile, which is still making him worried about her. He could never forget the fear he experienced when she was lying on the hospital bed in an unconscious state. Hera came to visit Livi, but the latter was sleeping. So Hera did not disturb her and left after making sure that her friend was doing well. Kyle, Nero Chole, Reed, and Mia, everyone came to visit Livi in the hospital. They all try to offer some strength to Alessandro, but they all know it's useless. Despite that, they used to visit every day and stay with him for hours taking turns. Not once did they leave him alone with Livi. They were equally worried about both Livi and Alessandro. And he will forever be grateful for their support. Slowly Olivia woke up. Her sleepy gaze met h
"Don't say that" she whispered. Suddenly she started feeling too cold. Goosebumps appeared on her skin and her teeth started chattering. When Alessandro noticed that her body suddenly started turning cold, he frowned."Livi?" he asked with panic, as anxiety started bubbling inside him. She lost consciousness before she could reply. After that, everything happened faster than anyone could blink."Kairo" Alessandro yelled. The Italian, who was in a bad mood after his not-so-friendly chat with Antonio was in the living area, getting ready to go out for some work when he heard Alessandro's voice. He recognized the fear and panic in the Russian's voice. He rushed upstairs as fast as his feet could carry him. Czar, Naim, and Carlos followed closely after him."Naim, go and bring my grandfather" he yelled while making his way towards Alessandro's room.Naim took a 'U' turn and rushed to fetch the old doctor. When Kairo, Czar, and Carlos walked inside the room, Alessandro was cradling an
"Antonio, what is happening between you and Kairo Bianchi?" one of the clients who is into women trafficking asked Antonio. This man named John is the biggest investor in women's trafficking and Antonio receives most of his profits from John. All of Antonio's dealings in human trafficking are partnered with Kairo. Most of the money is invested by the Italian boss, but more profits are taken by Antonio. The Italian used to trust the Portuguese so much that he never bothered to check if Antonio was cheating or not. So Antonio used to gain more money with little to no risk from this business, until now."What do you mean, John?" Antonio asked, feigning ignorance. John is quiet for a moment before answering."Kairo Bianchi took all the women away, whom you both sold to me. He even paid me the money I gave you guys for them. He declared that he stopped doing this business and threatened me not to buy or sell women in his outfit. I thought you already knew about this" John explained. Anto
The doctor, who is Russell Bianchi's friend changed a lot after Russell disappeared. But the older Bianchi doesn't know that. He became corrupt. He turned into the kind of person who would do anything for money and fame. He was one of the doctors who treated Olivia before Russell appeared in the picture. He knows how complicated her case was. No one could treat her. But after Russell came, she started recovering. That amazed him to no end. He tried to ask Russell about the miracle medicine, but the old man told him about the name of a leaf, the likes of which are not listed anywhere. Now, he is appointed to treat Olivia, and he will soon get his hands on the medicine. Alessandro didn't trust this new doctor who was claiming to be Russell's friend. He is so sharp, that he refuses to hand over all the loaded needles to this doctor. Safely he hid the needles in a safe. Only he knows the passcode of that safe. He appointed a man to keep tabs on this doctor, and the doctor doesn't know ab
"What do you want Antonio?" Kairo snapped angrily.After Czar told him about their spying messenger from Antonio, he became furious. He has been ignoring Antonio's calls intentionally. He decided to stay as far away from Portugal as possible. Antonio is agitated. "What happened? You tell me what is happening with you. John called me. He told me that you refused to do business with him. You didn't even think it was necessary to tell me before taking such a big decision" Antonio fired.Kairo gritted his teeth. He indeed decided never to do business with people again. Alessandro helped him to arrange a new livelihood for the people rescued from John. That gave him immense relief. He vowed to never treat any woman harshly or with disrespect again. His mother and sister were at the receiving end of that kind of thing. So he decided not to let any woman suffer under his watch."Why should I tell you anything? The money we used in that business was mine. But you used to reap the profits. I
"Don't peek" Alessandro instructed her for the third time. Olivia's curiosity is spiked so much, that she is tempted to take a peek and see what the fuss is all about. But she controlled her urge."How much longer?" she asked impatiently. It's just been a couple of minutes from the time asked her to come out of the car and made her close her eyes. When they parked their car, it was pitch black everywhere. Even if her eyes were open, she was sure she wouldn't be able to see anything. "Now, you can open your eyes" he spoke softly near her eyes. When she opened her, she gasped with surprise. Lights are lit everywhere. It feels like a carnival, but they are the only two people around. Small food stalls, games stalls, Merry go rounds, and there are many more games spread in front of her."Wow," she whispered, truly amazed.From a very young age, she used to love carnivals. But neither George nor Catherine took her there. They simply made it a point to torture her with everything they coul
It's been two days since Russell went back to the rain forest. He called and informed Kairo when he landed in Peru. If everything goes well, he is set to return back by tomorrow evening. And the next shot to be given for Olivia the day after in the morning hours.Stephen was kidnapped from his own cabin in that reputed hospital, where security is high. Despite the heavy security, no one knew where the doctor had gone. People saw him going inside his cabin and he treated a few patients as well. But after lunch, a nurse found his cabin empty, and no one found him since then. By evening, the hospital hid the news about his sudden disappearance. Because they don't want the media to splash news about their hospital and they are worried about bad publicity. The hospital claimed that he did not come to the hospital that morning. All the footage that can prove otherwise was deleted. On the other hand, in a warehouse outside the city premises, Stephen was tied to an iron chair. He is bleeding
Thiago, the mob boss of Peru is on a video call with John."Thiago, we have been in business for years now. And in all these years, we never came across a single issue. But today I need a little help from you. I don't have the habit of asking for favours without offering anything in return. If you help me with this, I will give you ten million dollars. All you have to do is, hand over that old man to me, and those leaves he wanted to collect. It's your turf, and things like this are easy for you" John spoke with confidence.Thiago smiled gracefully. "Of course. Who is this old man we are talking about?" he agreed instantly.John clicked a button and Thiago's screen lit up with the picture of Russell Bianchi. When Thiago saw that man, he is stunned."John, are you out of your mind? Do you know whom you are going against? They will bury you alive if they find out. Don't ask me these kind of favours again. You will be killed for sure, but if I help you, they will kill me as well. Find s
