“Any call from him?” Antonio whispered to Helena while keeping his smile intact on his face. This was Lomabary’s biggest philanthropist society. It organises a charity event every time before the elections. However the reality of these charity events was as dark as the moonless sky at night. These events were used for lobbying. Helena smiled, her gaze like Antonio darted around the grand ballroom before shifting back to Antonio. “No, I tried to contact him many times but his phone is off,” she answered over the dim of conversation making sure her voice remained audible to Antonio only. Antonio let out an exasperated sigh. “He never acted like this before. Didn't he know how important this event is for us? Italy's most influential men are here and my godson is missing! I have called him approximately a hundred times since last night.” Helena remained silent. She didn't know what to say,it's not like she was his real fiancèe, He didn't tell her anything about his whereabouts aft
Evan's eyes burned with fierce intensity as He noticed Giampaolo's tight grip on Helena's hand. Angrily, with a sudden burst of strength He freed Helena's hand from that old bastard’s hold. Helena's eyes welled with happy tears. “Evan…” a choked sob left her throat as she eyed her very much alive fiance. But she stiffened in horror when she noticed the small bandage on his forehead. She understood that something bad had happened to him. Nancy, Giovanni and Giampaolo’s taunts buzzed in her ears. She almost raised her hand to check him but Evan's icy gaze stopped her. The tears in her eyes infuriated him. “A lioness never shed her tears over rumours, Helena. Never!” He told her in a gentle tone but his eyes held anger and warning for her which didn't go unnoticed by Helena. She gulped down her emotions and He understood she made a mistake by showing them her fear. “Evan I…” “Why don't you go to your friend Isabel and Vienna, Love. And Let me have a talk with Mr Moretti and Mr R
Giampaolo’s eyes widened in horror as Evan's words hung in the air like a thick guillotine blade. He never thought the problem he thought he ended would once again came and stand in front of him like a deadly disease. Giovanni Rossi forgot to blink, he was dumbfounded to see the past of his wife’s standing in front of him. He made sure the child didn't survive but he did. Evan's eyes glinted in satisfaction to see the men standing startled in front of him. His mind is reeled with various implications right now. What would happen if Nancy Rossi found out about it? Evan moved and got into Giampaolo’s face. His icy blue eyes bore into Giampaolo's dark soul, “You see Grandpa, a long ago, I started a game with you years ago. The game of survival. You wanted to end my life, but you failed. And now it's my turn,” He gritted out in venom lacing his words. Giampaolo stiffened. The malice in Evan's tone and hatred in his eyes illustrated him that Evan was after him, after his life. “S
Vienna couldn't stand Helena when she walked up to her and Isabel. Her sister-in-law was happy with her friend's company as she took her aside to talk. Her brother kept her company but he too was busy with talking to some important businessmen there. She was fine with that, because Vienna's eyes were searching for someone too. Nancy Rossi! The woman came to Evan's house to warn Helena. Now she was going to help Vienna get Evan somehow. Her search finally ended when she found Nancy heading towards the restrooms and she excused herself from her brother, Making sure that they couldn't find her talking to Nancy. “Nancy Rossi, Can we talk?” Vienna asked as soon as she caught her near a silent corner in front of the washroom. Nancy turned her head to the new face. “Sorry, I don't recognize you…” Nancy said with a frown as she tried to recall Vienna but couldn't. Vienna smiled. “I am a well-wisher of your son.” Nancy’s eyes narrowed at the corners. There was a hint of something mor
“Evan…”“Silence!” He snapped, interrupting whatever she was about to say. Evan showed her a finger in warning. “Silence, Helena,” his eyes were exactly like smouldering coals. Today, Evan couldn't hold his burning anger on her. “You will not say a word as long as I speak. I ask you something! So Remain silent and listen.”Helena blinked at him in apprehension as He continued, “You are Evan Conan Hemsworth’s fiancèe. You know what it means!” His commanding, dominating voice thundered around the room making Helena jolt in fear. Today, Evan looked different to her. Someone scary and Beastly. “Answer me damn it!” He sneered again in that same roaring voice. Helena instinctively stepped back from him but He swiftly advanced towards her. “Tell me, dear Fiancèe?” She was fearing him at that moment as she stepped backward again. With every step Helena took back, Evan took forward towards her. This kept going until Helena’s back hit the wall. Evan placed his hands on both sides of the wa
“Hey Liam. How is your school going?” Vienna asked Liam while buttering her bread. “School is going good,” Liam answered as he continued peeling his egg for breakfast. His mother was late for breakfast today. Neither she or Evan was at the breakfast table. Even Antonio was not there today. He wanted to go and call his mother but Vienna stopped him by saying it's not wise to disturb them early in the morning. Antonio also said the same thing to him once so he agreed. Vienna asked Jenny for breakfast and they both were now sitting at the breakfast table together. Vienna smiled. “Hmm. Just good? I thought you would say your school is rocking. Now that you have Evan as your Dad.”Liam’s hand on the egg stopped and he looked at Vienna. “Dad? He is not my dad.”Vienna smiled sweetly. Too sweetly, “Why, he is marrying your mother. After marrying her, he will be your Dad. You can still call him that if he allows you,” Vienna said, placing the slice of bread on her plate and taking the hal
Evan reached the said meeting place an hour later. He stopped to check some of his ports where his men caught a drug consignment of Cosa Nostra. Good job done by his men. Now He would see what the Don had to say to him. “I hope I didn't make you wait too long, Mr Knight,” Evan said, his voice firm and deep while his eyes were vigilant and cold as He eyed Aaron with his brother cum consigliere Asher Salvatore Knight. Aaron raised his grey eyes to him, “Just an hour,” He said while getting to his feet and gesturing to Evan to take a seat with the beckon of his hand. Asher and Richard nodded at each other as they both remained standing behind their Capo’s.“You are blessed that I am here to talk and not kill, Mr Hemsworth. Had I been here for a later motive, you would have been ten feet under the ground by now.” Aaron simply voiced out. Evan chuckled, leaning back on his chair. “The man who could send Evan Conan Hemsworth ten feet under the ground has not been born yet, Mr knight. You
Helena was setting Evan's schedule for tomorrow when her cell phone blinked and an unknown number flashed on screen. She wondered if it was anyone from the Rossi family. Taking a deep breath she accepted the call. “Hello. Who is it?”“Your father. Arom Gelati,” Helena paused, for a moment she couldn't believe her father called her. Her eyes narrowed to slits as she recalled this man was also involved in killing her.“I do not remember having a father, Mr Gelati. You have dialled the wrong number,” She said and was about to end the call but Arom was fast. “Don't, Helana. Don't end the call. You do not know how much effort it took me to call you, my doll.”Helena closed her eyes tightly hearing the endearment her mother used to call her. Doll. Her doll. “Don't you dare call me that. Only my mother had the right to call me by this name!”“I am your father, Helena. I hold the same right over you. I know you are angry with me for not taking a stand for you seven years ago. But you must un
“Happy birthday Matteo,” Viso's four year old daughter wished her friend with a shy smile as she handed him the toy gun she brought as a birthday present for him.Matteo smiled at Rosa, his friend while taking the birthday present from her. “Thank you, Rosa.” Helena smiled over her son's manners. She was a proud mother of two handsome and chivalrous sons. Liam and Matteo. Isabel kissed Matteo's head. “How happy are you, Matteo? It's your fourth birthday.” she asked, pulling his cheek, while her friend handed her a glass of mocktail.“I am very happy, Isa, because you and Rosa came. She looks very pretty,’ He whispered, his cheeks turned pink as he blushed. Rosa too looked down shyly.The two friends exchanged a look and chuckled silently. Matteo turned to his mother. “Mom. I want to marry Rosa once I grow up.”Helena’s smile ceased as she froze and Isabel choked on her drink. She snapped her eyes to Matteo and Rosa. Isabel looked at her friend. “Don't you think your son is demandin
Antonio sighed after Evan left from there and turned to Richard. Their revenge was fulfilled, he was relieved for his one son while still worried for the other. “Still not gotten over her?”Richard’s throat bobbed up and down as he chained his emotions. “I don't know what you are talking about,” he muttered and walked past him but the old man stopped him and gave a firm squeeze to his arm.“You want her?” Antonio again asked and Richard closed his eyes in shame. “I know it's wrong. I should hate her but…”Antonio chuckled. “The girl regrets what she did.”“Her regrets meant nothing!” Richard snapped, opening his eyes. “Look how many people suffered because of her.”Even though Richard still had feelings for her but he knew it was his problem. This time he was not going to prioritise his emotions over his duty. “Yes. I can see who suffered the most,” Richard looked away and Antonio sighed. “Give yourself some time, Boy. Give Evan and Helena some time. I am sure things would work out f
“Dad, Mom is calling you, Zio Richard and Nonno for dinner. She made Pasta, pumpkin soup and almond cookies for dessert,” Liam chimed, opening the door of Evan's home office with a huge smile on his face.It looked like the kid had forgotten everything, he was happy with all the attention he was getting from his mother and Nonno. But Evan knew better. He knew Liam was still fearful to go outside. But he would overcome this fear. He had too because Liam was his heir. Heir to Evan's damn empire. He was going to the Capo Dei capi of La Famiglia once he turned twenty-five. “We are coming, ask your mother to set the table,” Evan responded with a smile. Once his son left He turned his attention back to Richard and raised his eyebrows in question.Richard nodded. “As per your order, Capo, he is tied in the cell, without food from the last two days. Crying and begging for release.”“Tonight. Giovanni Rossi is going to have the meal of his lifetime,” Evan said smirking before getting to his
“NO! Mom…wake up. Wake up!” Evan wailed like a broken wolf. “MOM!”“Capo. She is no more,” Ricahrd softly said from behind, making Evan freeze. He could only stare at the body of his lifeless mother. She was dead. She left him. Again! In the pin drop silence, Evan slowly rose to his feet not breaking his gaze from his mother’s lifeless body. Today He lost his last blood related family. He stepped back, face blank but eyes filled with unshed tears. The child inside him still craves that motherly’s love. They could have a normal bonding, She could have been alive and with him now that their misunderstanding was clear but… Evan's eyes went red with madness as He snapped his gaze to Giovanni before shifting them back to Richard. “Take this bastard to Milan. I want him tied up in our cell!” Giovanni was too stunned to react to his order right now. He also lost his family too. His wife got the shot to save his enemy. Richard nodded. “And what about…” He stopped and getsured at Nancy.
Giovanni glared at Saint, not paying heed to his wife’s emotions. “Why did you let her down!” He barked and ordered him to take her back to the room. “Take her back!” “Nooo. I am not going anywhere!” She screeched and strode to him and pushed him hard in the chest. “I will kill you, Giovanni! I will kill you! You ruined my life. You killed my husband! You separated me from my son. You ought to die, you bastard!” She screamed, her whole life flashed in her vision. The horrible night. The horrible day she married Giovanni. The day when she sacrificed her love for Conan and accepted Giovanni in her bed.Everything about her life disgusted her today. “You cunning bastard, you deserve nothing but death!” She spit on his face and Giovanni’s eyes went wide in rage.Evan narrowed his eyes seeing her actions, her words and Giovanni’s reaction to her. It all looked too real to be an act. But again, He would be a fool to believe her. While Giovanni and his men were busy in the drama Rossi cou
“Any news?” Evan demanded Richard who shook his head and Evan's nose flared. “What the hell have you been doing till now? Give me my son's location, Richard. I do not have time!” Evan snapped before walking out of there to talk to mafia heads of other countries himself. Richard sighed and was about to make some phone calls when he received a call from someone he was not expecting. Vienna! His heart wished to talk to her but he ended the call. He was done with this girl. Forever! However his phone kept buzzing from her number. “Richard, I…” “I don't want to talk to you," he snapped, “Don't call me again, Vienna. I am done with you!” He snapped before listening to what she was saying and ended the call. Richard officially closed her chapter from his life. But soon his phone buzzed again, this time with a message and the context of the message shocked him. She was apologising to him and asking for another chance for his love. The picture she sent was proof that she was trying to c
“High blood pressure due to heavy stress. You are lucky, she didn't have a stroke. But there is nothing to worry now, we have given her sedatives. She is sleeping now. She will be fine but you have to be very careful with her now. Nothing should give her stress. Nothing,or this could be harmful for her.”The doctor informed Evan who closed his eyes in anger and exhaustion.Failures, Evan never liked them. Never! But regarding this case He had been failing every single day. He clenched his hands tightly and opened his eyes.He needed to find Liam before his wife woke up. Anyhow! He had to give his wife her happiness back. Her son back!“Capo.” Evan snapped his head at Richard who approached him. “Have you found out where he took my son?” Evan demanded before Richard could speak further. Richard looked at him apologetically. “It seems like he vanished into thin air, Capo. I have tried everything but he is nowhere to be found. Infact, he didn't even appear at his party meeting. His wif
“Giovanni, what you are doing is wrong! Leave the child, can't you see how distresee he is!’ Nancy tried to snatch Liam from Gabe but Giovanni held her arm, stopping her struggle. “Nancy. Don't make me hurt you. Your bastard son killed my son! And I am barely in control. Stop interfering or things could go very bad for you,’ Giovanni warned her in a cold tone. “Are you threatening me, Giovanni?” Nancy widened her eyes and demanded. Giovanni got into her face. “Yes, My dear wife, I am threatening you. So shut the fuck up and come with me!”He said pushing her in the waiting chopper which Elijah wanted to board to go to Fiji. But his location would slightly change.“No Giovanni, give me Liam please!” She lashed out ignoring his warning and once again tried to go to crying Liam. Giovanni, in rage, raised his hand and struck her hard. “Sit silently or you will see a face of mine you have never witnessed before!” He screamed and Nancy for a moment froze at Giovanni's action. The man who
Evan didn't say anything and was about to turn to go to his wife and child but the air of the place once again turned violent as They heard the landing of a chopper and the sound of bullets! Richard, who left with Titus before, came running. His eyes were full of tension. “Capo, We are under attack!” Viso gave him a questioning look. “What happened?” He asked pulling his phone out to call Titus to make sure Vienna was alright. “Sage called. Giovanni Rossi attacked us!”“Fucking Rossi bastards….” Evan snarled and Just then the sound of door breaking was heard and bullets started raining over them. Evan ducked his head and pulled out his gun to fight. Viso and Richard did the same as they got into the fighting stance with Giovanni Rossi’s goons which started invading the place. “Richard, Call Sage and ask him to protect my family with his life! If anything happens to them, I won't leave anyone alive!” Evan ordered in a grave tone while running to the safe point to fight. He was ten
