Tomasso looked at me as though I had grown two horns on my head then he chuckled. “Where?” He questioned, amused.Even Marco paused as his eyes darted between the two of us.“I don't know, you tell me.” I replied, juggling my memory.“Hmm?” He leaned into his sit and looked at me. “Are you tryna joke with me? I'm hungry can we do this later?”“You don't have regard, do you?” Marco scolded him and then looked at me. “Don't listen to him ma'am.” Then he scratched his head. “Hanging out with Tomasso requires so much apology from me, I think I'll request to work with someone else.”“You take him too seriously,” I addressed Marco with a smile. Tomasso stuck out a tongue at him and Marco balled his hands into a fist and shot daggers at him. “And you can call me Bella, Marco.”Silently he nodded.“Tell me about you Tomasso.” I demanded in an attempt to understand where I had seen him previously.He paused his food as his eyes darkened. He stayed quiet for a while which came out oddly but I k

He looked away and sighed, his features hardening. “I'm not allowed to talk about it. If you simply want to know maybe you can ask your husband?” He shrugged. “Don't mean to be rude though.”“I get it,” I nodded. “I'm having a conversation with you, but I need to ask my husband about something? Hmm.” I replied.Tomaso's face fell. While he was about to say something, I cut him short. “I understand if you don't feel up to talking about it sincerely.” I said to him.Relief washed over his features as he inhaled. “I feel really guity, I couldn't tell my mother about the truth, I knew she'd define be disappointed.” He replied, shaking his head.From the way he sounded I knew this was not really about his mother. He had done a few things he didn't really like that had also affected him. He was grappling with his conscience but it was just a situation otban unfortunate circumstance that left him tongue tied.“See if you ever want to leave this life, you could reach out to me and I could ta

BELLA POV some weeks later...Lonely. Desperate for someone to talk to. Someone who would listen to me. I picked up my phone to put a call across to Lucy so I could at least tell her what I'm going through, I know she would listen.After three rings Lucy picked the phone up with her voice piercing my eardrums.“Yes, you call. I'm so excited and I have great expectant news.” Lucy cheered, cutting me shut from speaking up. And I whimpered, letting her go now with her chatter, barely hearing others even though I couldn't end the call. “Lucy, please can you let me say something. I called you and not the other way round. Girl!’ I whispered, and she laughed.I breathed out in relief, at least I would be able to say something now. “Yes, sorry I forgot to fill you in the juicy details. You would scream out of excitement too, listen carefully and ignore my screams.” Lucy warned playfully. I held my breath again, she was annoying the shit out of me. And I nodded like she could see m

BELLA POV “You need to calm down and listen to me, I'm sure you would understand when you hear my side of the story." He said, walking slowly and closer to me until he held me in his embrace.“I'm listening to you. Go on. Tell me everything." I replied, folding my hands as I placed a killer look on my face.He chuckled and I raised my eyebrows in suprise wondering what he was finding amusing. “What's funny about my question or look?" I asked, and he shook his head." You look anything but funny.” He replied, turning down the temperature and I began to feel hot."You are free to open a button if you feel very hot, I don't mind.” He added, I ignored him till I couldn't take it anymore and I opened two buttons to let more air. “You look ravishing and I want to have you…” He smiled, bending down as he placed a kiss on my breasts and I shuddered.“Stefano stop. You are distracting me from the issue at hand." I whispered, biting back the sounds that threatened to escape from my lips.“I

As the tears begin to fall, I knew there was tendency Stefano was right about this before his intel never failed him. My chest twisted with disappointment, I never believed that my father would do this to me but oh well, it was happening right before my eye and what could I do? Nothing. I just had to confirm first to be sure.I already made a fight with Stefano because of this, I couldn't hesistate to find out the truth again. I called Marco to book the next flight to the US and get Tomasso ready because we're leaving to see my father soon. His response was affirmative and I set out to pack my bags and get ready because this was just a journey to the truth. I'd knew moving in circles if I didn't attempt to find out the truth for myself. Nobody had to tell me, it was glaring that was what I had to do. I might as well as be certain of the heartbreak now so I could heal faster and carry on with my life. Instead of going back and forth with Stefano who was trying to help me. Soon, Marco s
