“Ah! It’s my dear sister Helena,” Victoria chimed with a fake smile, however, her eyes reflected her true emotions. Anger and enviousness dripped out of Victoria Gelati’s features seeing Helena’s glowing face and body wrapped in a lavish gorgeous attire. “Where have you been for the past seven years? I heard that you gave birth to a bastard son.”Helena straightened her posture, her eyes flashed and wrath filled her gaze. She wanted to rip Victoria’s tongue out of her mouth but Evan’s words about losing control buzzed in her ears and she gave her a stretched smile. “Miss Gelati…”“Nah,” Victoria raised her finger at her. “Mrs Rossi. While you were giving birth to Elijah’s bastard, I married him, Dear sister,” She announced proudly with a mocking gleam. Helena’s nose flared in fury, she clenched her hands tightly in a fist. “Mrs Rossi, I suggest you watch your words because if you call my son a bastard one more time, I will rip your tongue out of your ugly mouth and hand it over to
“The diamonds in this necklace are one of a kind, the design is inspired by a wild rose,” The auctioneer informed about the exclusive diamond necklace engraved with small diamonds shaped in petals around a thick chain, “The bid for this will start from 25 million euros.”“Elijah, I want this necklace,” Victoria insisted to her husband, clinging to his arm while her eyes were on Helena whose gaze momentarily shifted to her. Elijah smirked, staring right at Helena as he raised Victoria’s hand and kissed it. “It's yours.” The husband and wife were trying to make Helena jealous. Victoria spoke loud enough for her ears to hear as their tables were not far from each other. Helena turned her cold gaze ahead silently and fisted her hands tightly under the table as she turned to Evan. “How much is this necklace really worth?” Evan, who really wasn't paying attention to this stupid auction, looked up from his phone hearing her low voice. He glanced at the diamond necklace carefully on the scr
Evan spun her around before pulling her back into his arms. Helena landed in his arms smoothly as He held her waist tightly. Her eyes wide with the sudden move but Evan gave her a twisted smirk. He neared her ear and whispered sensually, “Welcome to my dark Kingdom, Mia Cagna. I knew you would be a perfect match for my darkness. My corrupted queen.” Then He placed a soft kiss on her temple, lingering on her skin for two seconds before leaning back his face, sealing the sub deal of their private promising words. Goosebumps rose in Helena’s body hearing his dark words but his lips created havoc inside her. She gulped her saliva and smiled at him when she felt eyes on them. People’s eyes! Helena knew what He was referring to. Corrupted Queen! Helena was stunned by the title. Yes, she was no longer a naive forgiving girl, she was corrupted by the thirst for revenge. Evan smirked seeing her grim expression. “Calm yourself, Mia Cagna.The road to becoming a fierce lioness is longer
Evan lightly messaged his forehead and heaved out a tiring breath, He was close to losing his patience. The person who called him to meet had been staring at him from the past fifteen minutes without uttering a single word and it was irritating Evan. “Will you say something or do you want to stare at me the whole night, Compagno?” Evan asked when Viso D’Angelo remained silent for another ten seconds. “How does it feel, Hemsworth?” Viso questioned his best friend leaning back in his chair and pinning him with a disappointed stare. “I am getting the news of your engagement from the fucking media.” Viso was not pleased with the news. Evan’s engagement didn't surprise him but what stunned him was the person whom his friend got engaged to. “There are billions of women in this world. Young and old. You could have chosen any of those women but you chose Her!” Viso spat. “Helena Perez! Why do you want to spoil your life by marrying her, Evan? She is a nuisance to live with and not to
“I wanted to tell you but it all happened so suddenly that I didn't get the chance, Isa,” Helena pleaded with her friend to uplift her mood who was upset and angry at her at the same time. “Are you serious, Leena!” Isabel almost screamed in disbelief. “I can't believe you are marrying Evan. You never told me anything about being in a relationship with him. Where did you two meet, Leena? I want to know everything. You have been hiding from public eyes for years and now you are suddenly attending parties with Evan. Parties where Your family and Ex were present. I find all this fishy, tell me what is going on, Leena?” Isabel demanded over the phone call. Helena sighed. The news of her engagement with Evan went viral within a few hours. It became hot news in the whole country, let alone the state of Lombardy. She had ten missed calls and many messages from Isabel when she woke up the next morning. Helena knew what was waiting for her, so she called her only after Liam left for
Evan walked around his desk and stopped in front of her, his intimidating straight posture didn't fail to affect Helena as she cowered back though she was fumed at his question. Evan invaded her personal space, getting on her face, “Helena!” His voice held authority but Helena pressed her hands to his chest and shoved him back though He didn't budge. “You tell me what that was, Evan Conan Hemsworth!” Helena asked sharply. “You had no right to humiliate me in front of your staff like that. The news of our engagement is viral. Isabel called me to ask for an explanation. I lied to her because according to the contract signed between us, I can't disclose the truth of our relationship to anyone. Soon, Liam will know about us too and here you were having a great time with your publicist!” Helena busted on him, tears of irritation and anger pricked her eyes. Damn her emotions! She roughly wiped her tears and pointed a sharp finger at him. “I will not stand you humiliating me like this
“He broke my son’s nose! Is this kind of behaviour acceptable in school, Mr. Gilbert?” Liam’s classmate's mother, Mary, exclaimed at the Principal Head of the school while giving a heated glare to Liam who returned it with the same intensity. He stood there wearing a smug look on his face as if he owned the place. The only reason that the woman couldn't dare to raise her hand on Liam was because of the two bodyguards standing behind him like shadows. “What kind of administration do you have here?” She demanded, “You allowed goons in the school, I will complain about you and your school to higher authorities, Mr. Gilbert.”Mr Gilbert sighed deeply seeing the infuriated lady, Mary, creating commotion around his office. “Mrs Spears, please calm down, we have contacted the ward’s mother. She will be here anytime soon. I assure you, The matter will be taken into consideration,” The head principal tried to calm the lady but She once again glared at Liam.“Fine! Let his mother come, I wil
“Are you hurt by the other kid in any way? You can tell me if someone…” Evan stopped his inquiry seeing Liam who was fuming in anger while sitting beside him in the backseat of the car. His blue eyes narrowed in glare at Evan. “I don't need your help to defend my matters. I can take care of the bullies,” His big words didn't fail to impress Evan. The kid grew daring nerves but his reaction to the engagement news was worrying Evan. He predicted his anger but this was more than anger. This was rage. Evan wondered how Helena would handle this rage. Now thinking about it, He apprehended that this kid literally took his mother’s stubbornness and fierce attitude. Evan thought about some way to calm Liam, “I can hide this incident from your mother, if you want,” He said, trying to break the ice between them. “It could be our secret, you know,” Evan shrugged, “A man-to-man secret.”Liam once again watched him through his lashes. He was nervous about his mother coming to know about his viol
