“You didn't have to do this. It's not like I'm dead,” Alfredo said when Sydney brought him breakfast in bed. He wasn't shot. However, the woman was treating him like a special case. “I know… it's just that I can't let you die without giving me my first salary,” Sydney said and watched him eat. Alfredo gave a helpless smile, “So all this is about money?” “Yeah… I've worked for two weeks … if you die I won't ever get my payment,” Sydney remarked, she felt bad about all this. As much as she wished for the Garcias to pay. It wasn't clear to her why witnessing the scene the previous night made her agitated. Someone tried to shoot Alfredo, just like they did with Luciano. “I'm sure you would have loved it if… I died… that way you would have gotten your revenge,” Alfredo said while eating his food. She made delicious omelets. And pancakes just the way he liked it. It had been a while since he ate good food prepared with love. Silence fell in the room. Sydney swore her breathing could be
Pedro had gotten Olivia safely back to the villa. It had been a long night, but he did his best to make sure she was safe. Jason Philips was a fool to trust him again. After what happened. Pedro was certain. The man would still want to hurt Olivia. “Boss… everything is good,” one of Pedro's men said, handing him two guns. Pedro took the guns and nodded at him. “Go back and burn the warehouse… give Jason a taste of his medicine,” Pedro ordered, and the man nodded with a bow. “And boss, something happened,” the man said hesitantly when Pedro was about to walk back upstairs. “Did something happen?” Pedro asked suspiciously. “It's about well… Mr. Zane tried a murder attempt against Mr. Alfredo Garcia” the man finally said nervously, “Punish him the right way…” Pedro said and made his way to the stairs. Zane was insane to attempt something without asking for permission. Pedro reached Olivia's bedroom door just in time to change her bandages. “You came…” Olivia said and tried to stan
Olivia stepped into the shower. She was feeling a bit bad. However, Pedro had done more than enough to take care of her. The man was cold but caring, for a mafia man, Pedro wasn't so bad. At times, he appeared to be scary. However, with time. She learned that every person has a soft heart. Olivia smiled faintly and finished up her shower. In two days, it will be her parents' death anniversary. She didn't even know if it was a death anniversary, but all she knew was that. In two days it would be her birthday. A year ago, she celebrated her last brother's birthday because now it was the cruel day when her family died, and her child was brutally killed. Her little brother was innocent, Lalo had a bright future ahead of him. The Garcias did all that to hurt her. Olivia sat in her chair in front of the mirror looking at her reflection. She didn't know who she was anymore. There was no more Olivia. She thought one day she would wake up and everything would be a dream, unfortunately tha
“Get away… get away!” Antonia was like a mad woman once she excluded the bathroom from fright and started throwing things around her room…breaking stuff and shouting for help. She didn't stop until the bedroom door opened and Bianca and Alfredo, who heard the noises, rushed in. “Mom! Stop it now!” Alfredo held his mom, stopping her from breaking things around. Bianca called for the servants to help them… Antonia didn't stop shouting and protesting, even when she was shoved on the bed. The two doctors attending to Luciano rushed in to see what was happening. “She… I saw her… she was there… She came” Antonia kept saying. “Mom stop it… please just like down” Alfredo coaxed, not sure what happened to his mom for her to go crazy so suddenly. She was fine a while ago, so now what. “Get out already!” Antonia shouted at the doctors and servants to leave. Out of fear, they stormed out of the room, leaving Bianca and Alfredo sitting on the bed beside their mother. “Mom, what's all this, hu
“How come, this is a joke, right?” Alfredo was in disbelief, there was something huge going on. Everything was falling apart. “I'm afraid this is bad… the factory blew up in flames, “Luciano's trusted manager said, lowering his gaze. Alfredo slammed his fist on the table, causing a loud sound. Which had the man trembling. “Did… did you find out who did it?” he asked, narrowing his eyes into slits, something was happening right under his nose. And Alfredo was shaken. His family was in chaos. The media were going on about accusing them of all sorts of things. “For now I have the team investigating the matter… within this week I'll find out the main culprit,” the man said. He was loyal to the Garcia's. His boss Luciano had been generous to him. The fact that Luciano's hard work was threatened bothered him. “Keep me posted. I want the culprit behind bars… it seems they are daring us” Alfredo said sternly. He knew the same people who shot Luciano, stoned his mom, sent his sister to ja
Pedro's wildness was something Olivia couldn't take. The fact that he was demanding and domineering. She couldn't get him off her once he had decided something. A crazy afternoon in the pool with a hot and sexy man was something she didn't expect when she decided to go for a swim. Pedro made her wrap her legs around his waist while he supported her back with his strong arms. He didn't stop kissing her hungrily, as if he had been craving her his entire life. What surprised Olivia was how she was responding to him. The strange sensation rushed through her body and deep into her bones. It was something she had never felt before. The need to have all of him was imperative. Her heart was on fire. Yearning for something she didn't think she would want. “Mmm… I want you, “Pedro murmured in between kisses as he cupped her face with one hand. The woman in his arms was panting and catching her breath as she held on to him. Everything was blurry. She wasn't sure if it was the water. But the s
He laid her on the soft bed and climbed on top of her. Kissed her mouth with passion. His hands roamed around her wet body. Caressing her flesh as he left her mouth. He could feel her wanting her. She was innocent, so innocent that he hated how she was taken advantage of in the past. “Relax sweetheart” he mumbled when he felt her trembling. He wanted his touch to soothe her. To be the only man, she wanted and craved. Pedro's eyes roamed over her body. Her eyes were shut. His gaze was with interest and admiration, the way she shivered under his touch. When he tugged at the waistband of her panties and snapped it, she bit her lower lip. Pedro was losing it. “You look so beautiful” he mumbled as he sucked on her belly, licking every water dripping on her. Olivia felt his hot tongue on her. A warm sensation between her thighs had her squeezing her legs tightly. “By the time I'm done… I want you to… Only think about me” he mumbled in between kisses. His right hand roamed over her fl
Olivia was in the kitchen, gulping one glass of water after the other. Nothing felt right, or maybe she was just exaggerating things. With each slam of the glass on the kitchen counter. Olivia felt her throat getting drier. It happened a day ago and now things are getting worse. The man who said so much to her was ignoring her. He was too busy for her. The only woman he saw was Hannah. The sick girl who was attacked and badly hurt. “What's up girly?'' The kitchen door opened and Gabby walked in. Ira came in too. Olivia didn't look at them. “So others drink liquor when frustrated,” Gabby said with a chuckle and pulled out a chair and sat down “Not water… so I'm thinking,” Ira too chimed in and both laughed as if everything was funny. “So what's wrong baby doll… you've been like this for two days,” Gabby said and took a plate of food given by Ira. It was interesting how everyone knew of everything going on in other people's lives. “And what do you think?”Olivia said sarcastically
