Helen struggled to get out of the grip of the men who were holding her. Alessandro pulled out a file that he had with him and presented it to them, placing it on the dining table."Mr. Volkov, we are sorry if we offended you, but Yulia has always caused a lot of trouble for the family." Reign muttered. "We had to teach her a lesson, and we also had no idea that you were dating her."Alexander pulled out another chair and sat on it. Solia was about to take another seat when he pulled her by the waist and placed her on his lap.He held her close to himself as he stared at her parents. "Here is the document for you to sign over the properties to Yulia. I am giving you the chance to give her back what belongs to her, even if you don't comply. I am going to take it forcefully."Reign teeth clenched as he listened to Alexander. There was no way he was giving back those shares. Raquel Storm's shares were worth more than a billion dollars.If he could give it back to her, their position was g
“Hey, when are you letting her come out?” Alexander demanded, gently placing her on the passenger's seat of his car.She gazed at him as he did the self-beat for her. He closed the door and turned around the car to sit in the driver's seat.“She usually comes out herself,” Solia explained. “Or I go in.”“Why isn't she out yet?”“I have no idea.”Alexander buckled his seat belt; his eyes were still on her when he leaned closer to her and untied her hair.“Hey…” Solia attempted to stop him, but the hair was already falling over her back."She looks better now,” he commented, carefully stroking her hair.He ignited the engine and began driving back. She gazed outside the window as he drove. It had been a while since she had been out this much.Yulia had always been the one to come out and take over everything. Even though she could be out for a long time, she usually got fed up and let Yulia take the body.The world was a bad place, and only if you're worse would you survive. That was he
Her eyes widened as she heard those words. She hadn't been expecting that; it was too sudden for her. Since she had worked for the Rumrat, she hadn't thought about the ones she killed.Well, she could blame it on the rumrat because if she didn't, they were going to kill her too.She knew that, as she had quit, they were going to be after her since she knew almost everything about them.“They killed your parents? I wasn't expecting that.”“They are the mafia, a terrible one, I might add.”“Wait, what? I thought they were a private security organization.”“They lied to you.” He answered through clenched teeth. “They saw your potential and got to you first to protect themselves.”“I never knew they were that bad.”“They are worse. Although I am a mafia lord too, I might add. I am not as ruthless as they are; I don't go after innocent people.”She looked away from him. “Do you know who exactly did it?”“You mean I killed my parents?”Nodding, she peered at him. “Do you know who did it?”H
Alexander got out of the car before she could say anything else. "Make sure to lock the door as you follow me."She nodded hastily before getting out of the car and slamming the door shut. "What does that mean? Is he going to come after me? Why?"He gazed back at her. "You took his wedding ring, and then you quit. He wants you to be the one framed for my parents' deaths. You should be grateful I bought you.""That doesn't even make sense." She fell into step with him. "Why would he come after me? I did nothing wrong.""He is the kingpin of the Rumrat. You owe him your life in exchange for his. Like I said, you should be lucky that I bought you.""And why is that?""I know you are not the killer now." He gazed at her, the sides of his lips curling into a smile."Why does he want me? I don't get it."He increased his walking pace. "Do I have to explain this to a kid now?""I'm not a kid." She bawled as he walked farther away from her. "I just don't understand what you are talking about.
"You can't understand all of it. It's understandable since you walked for the mafia without knowing it was the mafia." He let out a sigh. "You were also used to.""Are you calling me stupid?" She demanded. "You might have purchased Yulia, but you didn't purchase me.""You are the same person. Unless you can..." He paused, knowing fully well that her mother's assets were hers now."Unless I pay you back?" She raised a brow at him. "You are going to let me go?"He nodded. "Yeah, but you can't leave yet because you can't fully buy your freedom.""Chill." She chuckled softly at how ridiculous he looked when trying to keep her. "I already said I am not leaving; I don't think she would leave either. She is already blind, and living with you will save us more money.""If you say so.""Why don't you want us to leave, though?" She inquired, her curiosity at its peak."Who would want to letWhere do their assets go?" He replied with a question. "You have such a talent that the Ramrat wants to r
When they got home, Alessandro was sitting on the large couch. Holding the remote in one hand, he was watching a movie, and Yulia found the movie weird and surprisingly familiar.They made their way towards the couch, and Alessandro turned around to look at them. He had a huge smile on his face as he turned his face toward them.“You are back.” He muttered.“Of course,” Yulia replied. “What movie are you watching?”“The one about the monster, the ghost, and the girl who turned out to be their stepsister. You know I can't say the title out loud.”Yulia turned around to look at Alexander, who raised a brow at her. She looked away from them after they were done eating at the restaurant. Yulia had gotten her body back after Solia claimed that she needed to rest.“He can't say the name of the movie; he is super shy about it, but he loves that movie,” Yulia announced and began heading for the stairs, but paused halfway. ''You stayed back when we left; what did you do to them?”Alessandro av
“Prince Q, what do you think about it? Would you still be able to race with a different car? And what happened? I haven't seen you for a long time; I saw you yesterday, and that's how I knew that you were around.”Yulia let out a loud sigh. “It was nothing. About the car, I can race with anything.”Y seemed satisfied by what she said. “Was that your boyfriend yesterday?”“Kind of.”He looked at her through the rearview mirror. “You date that guy? He isn't even up to your type. You like dangerous guys…”She rolled her eyes at him. “That would do about that. When are we going to be there?”“If we go through the shortcut, we might get there before the race begins.”They said no words to each other, and he drove the car to their destination. By the time they got to the racing center, all the cars were already arranged, and the place was already crowded with the audience.As soon as Y drifted the car right beside the racing field, the audience's curiosity piqued as they waited for the pers
Yulia was still with the other men after they had received their prizes. They were heading towards the other racers who had lost.Trye stretched his hand with a tired look on his face. “I couldn't sleep a wink last night because I practiced too much for this race.”"Do you all practice?” Yulia asked.“Of course we do; my coach is super strict,” Rider replied. “Who is your coach?”She shrugged. “I don't have one.”Y appeared and handed a bottle to her; she took it and gulped in half the content. The girls in the audience squealed in excitement at how cute she looked.“Do you want to grab breakfast with us?” Rider suggested. “You should be friends with racers like us; we haven't seen you after your last match, and I am quite glad that you are talking to me.”“I am not that special." Yulia chuckled softly.Trye gave her a once-over glance. “If it isn't because of your height and how flat your chest is, I should have called you a female; you looked much like a beautiful female.”What he s
