All Chapters of Promised to a Ruthless Mafia: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Conrad's POVI hugged Veronica until she calms down.When her sobs subsided I bravely face her and upon looking into her eyes I already knew what I wanted but I don't dare to say it."Do you still love Atasha, Conrad?" she asked while looking me directly in the eyes.My heart said yes to that question but my mind keep telling me that I love Veronica and I should stay on her side because that is the right thing to do."I..." I can't finish my sentence. I am afraid that if I gave my answer now I will regret it later on."You still love her," that wasn't a question but a statement like she already figured out the thing I am confused about.I reached for Veronica's hand but she hid it on her back refusing to be touched by me."Did you ever love me or you are just convincing yourself that you love me because I am the one who stayed on your side when the world turns its back on you?" she asked and I can feel pain in her tone."Do you love me or do you just love me because I love you?" she a

Atasha's POVI saw relief in Conrad's eyes when Veronica's heart started beating again.Tears fell from my eyes while watching the monitor and seeing Conrad happy.I watched him walk towards Veronica's bed. He held her hands and softly caressed them.I saw in my peripheral vision that Sebastian is looking at me so I turned my head to him and simply nod.Sebastian talked to Conrad first for a few minutes before walking towards me. "How is she?" I asked the moment he reached me."We still have to monitor her condition. If she didn't wake up within 24 hours there is a possibility that she will fall into a coma," he said. I felt heaviness in my chest when I heard that but I still believe that Veronica can make it."She will wake up," I said filled with hope.Sebastian let out a deep breath and then nod his head."I am hoping she will," he said then tapped my shoulder before walking away.The hospital is too busy so even though I can see on his face that he wanted to stay he chose to leav

Conrad's POVWhen Atasha went home I stayed outside the operating room praying for Veronica's successful operation.Hours feel like days and during those times I am being embraced by fear.When Sebastian finally stepped out of the operating room I immediately stood up to talk to him."How is she?" I immediately asked.Sebastian removed his mask then tapped my shoulder and smiled at me."The operation is successful Conrad," he said.I hugged him quickly when I heard those words.The heaviness in my chest was lifted and I felt like I was freed from fear."She will be transferred to her room. We still have to monitor her," he said then tapped my shoulder once again before leaving.Sebastian looks mad at me when I first saw him but I can say that he is a good doctor. He doesn't involve his personal life to work and he treats everyone equally.After a while, Veronica was transferred to her room as Sebastian told me.Before entering Veronica's room they made me wear gloves and gowns.Upon s

Atasha's POVMy father looked at me intently but our conversation was interrupted when I heard my phone ring.Upon answering the call I saw Grace's name flashed on the screen."She woke up! Veronica woke up!" she announced the moment I answered the call.My eyes widen. I immediately stood up. My father looked at me completely confused."Why? What is it?" he asked with curiosity laced in his voice."Veronica, she's awake," I uttered filled with happiness."Do you want to go there?" he asked.I looked at him intently and then flashed a small smile before shaking my head."I won't be needed there and besides Veronica and I aren't on good terms," I said.My father nods his head. I sat on the swing once again and continued watching the twins.When they finally noticed my presence they started running towards me and pulled me into a tight hug."Mommy you're here," they happily uttered while hugging me tightly.I hugged them back and kissed them on their cheeks."Did you miss Mommy?" I asked

Conrad's POVA week had passed and Veronica was discharged from the hospital.Her doctors allowed her to stay at home as long as she will take all the prescribed medicines and she won't force herself to work.Veronica and I agreed that she would stay in my unit while she recovers.She needs someone to take care of her since her body is too weak to do any kind of work."I will get your bed ready," I said then assisted her in sitting on the couch.I headed towards her room and then changed her bed sheet and pillowcases. When I am sure that her room is clean I stepped out and then walked towards the living room where I left her."Your room is clean. You should take a rest while I prepare our lunch," I said.Veronica smiled and then nodded her head.I held her waist and supported her body on standing up.We walked towards her room and when we finally reached it I helped Veronica in lying on her bed."Take a rest," I reminded her and she nod her head like an obedient little kid.I was abou
