Speak Of The Devil Chapter 68
Leo dashed out of the ICU almost bumping into Luca."Luca," he shook his head, a hint of worry in his tone "The doctors say he's far too gone."Just as Luca was about to reply, the ICU doors pushed open and a team of doctors arrived. Luca and Leo hurried towards them."Mr Genovese," one of them spoke, a forlorn look on his face "I'm sorry.""What the hell do you mean by that!" Luca shouted"We have done all we could, but he's not coming through." the doctor turned down his gaze "He has only few minutes to live, Mr Genovese. I'm sorry."Luca watched in silence as they turned and walked away. He shut his eyes as the pain coursed through him. Yes, he'd done bad things and maybe he is part of the reasons Mr Tate would lose his life today. Luca never envisioned this. He'd spent millions of dollars, gone as far as bringing the best doctors from overseas however the man's health was not getting any better. He felt guilty."Have the driver get Aurora down here," he said to Leo "Immediately an

It was night when Aurora awoke. Andrea who was resting by the side of the bed was elated to see her awake. She thought carefully before opening her mouth to speak."Aurora," she whispered as she stared down at her "Are you okay?" she asked however Aurora said nothing. She continued to stare at the ceilings while bold tears fell from the corner of her eyes.Andrea felt heartbroken to see Aurora in such state and sadly when both her and Luca were already trying to work things out."Aurora, I'm sorry for..for your loss." Andrea wiped the tears on her face "And I want you to know t-that it's not Luca's fault. Luca really did everything humanly possible to help him."Andrea waited for her response but saw that she wasn't going to speak. Her gaze was still fixed on the ceilings while tears continued to pour from her eyes."Please stop crying, for the sake of your kids." Andrea said but that didn't change a thing. She got up and was about to leave when she saw Leo standing by the door.She w

Leo and Andrea alighted from the car. The rain was pouring heavily and it thundered loudly in the distance. Tightening her coat over her body, she gazed at the sky while waiting for Leo to join her."I hope he finds her," she sighed "It's so cold." and then she turned to Leo, wondering why he wasn't beside her yet. He was on his phone and as he typed into it he had a serious expression on his face. Andrea had noticed this since they were at the hospital but she attributed it to his busy schedule and didn't bother to ask.Leo lifted his head and caught her staring. He looked surprised because he thought she must have gone in."Hey, it's cold. Why are you still standing here?""Is something wrong, Leo?" Andrea decided to ask him "You've been on the phone even while you were driving.""It's.. it's work related and I'm afraid I'll have to be there in the next few minutes.""But Leo, it's raining heavily. The roads are not safe and you just got back!""Listen, I know but it will be fine."

"Aurora," he cupped her face in his hands "Let me fix this. I promise I'll change. I'll do anything to keep you with me. I..I don't want to lose you."Hearing all of these caused adrenaline to surge through Aurora's nerves. She was happy yet sad. While she wanted to jump into his arms she couldn't. Anytime she opened her mouth to tell him about the pregnancy, nothing seemed to come through. "Aurora??" he called when he noticed how reluctant she looked."Luca," she began while stepping out of his grip. She downcasted her eyes "I'm glad things would begin to work well now and it's great too that we've cleared up the misunderstandings but,"She let out a sigh before saying, "I can't continue this relationship.""Aurora, what are you saying? Why??" he was losing his cool again and the torment began to mock him in his mind. His arms were all over her as he spoke "Do you not feel the same way for me? Are you saying you don't love me?"She hesitated and then spoke, "I'm in love with someone

"Look who's here," Sandra got up on her feet and entwined her hands with Leo's "Honey, you didn't tell me you brought someone along."Andrea's eyes fell on the woman's protruded belly, the drinks on the table and the pizza that was half eaten. On the mahogany wall was the large projector that had the image of Sandra in Leo's arms displayed on it. They were both smiling happily and Andrea had to admit that she had never seen Leo that happy ever since they got married. She felt like the other woman who'd come between Leo and his happiness. Even though she knew that someday Leo would leave her due to the fact that she cannot conceive she still felt hurt and betrayed."Andrea," Leo stepped out of Sandra's arms "W-what..what are you doing here? It's raining heavily and you're freezing." he then pulled off his jacket and attempted to place it over her but she stepped away.She couldn't even look him in the eye."Andrea please let me explain," he dumped the suit jacket on the couch "This isn

"How dare you think of showing your face here," Mrs Russell thundered "Your husband almost killed my son!"Aurora stood dumbfounded. "I'm really sorry, it's just I..I didn't think that it would amount to that.""Shove your sorry down your throat!" she hissed as she fished out an envelope from her bag "Get out of my building. I never want to see your face here ever again"As she was about to leave, she stopped and said,"You're so lucky that nothing worse happened to my son, you wouldn't be breathing as we speak." with that she strode out with two of her bodyguards.Needless to say, inside the envelope was a sack letter and although Aurora did not expect this she quietly bottled it up.Amber came to her that instant,"I'm so sorry, Aurora.""What are you apologizing for? It's not your fault.""I'm just expressing my sadness," Amber explained "Don't be sad, take me to Ethan" Aurora asked and on the way to Ethan's ward Amber stared at her friend."Why do you keep staring at me? Did she

She did not waste a second staring at his face and he was too dumbstruck to say anything. He watched her leave and wondered what changed about her. He felt hurt at her choice of words and even he couldn't deny that in the course of his deceiving her, he grew feelings for her no matter how small.He wished that time had better timing for both of them, things would have surely taken another turn.Aurora returned to what used to be her office and stared at it for a minute after closing the door behind her. After dropping out from school, this became where she could hide her pain. A place where she would run to whenever the frustration became too much.Her eyes fell on the desk and then to the couch. The spots where Matteo and her made up countless times. Despite being deceived by him she agreed that the relationship was a rollercoaster of sizzling romance and hot passion. He just couldn't stand up for her when her father gave her off. But this isn't worth thinking now, she thought, Luca

"What?!" he got up on his feet in rage."Listen," Leo began "It's not what you think." However, Luca had circled around his desk and given him a resounding slap. He grabbed his collar."How could you do that? What about Andrea?! Are you crazy?!""Luca.. Luca" Leo tried to explain but Luca didn't let him speak. In rage, he punched him to the ground and nearly didn't stop."It wasn't recently!" Leo yelled out and Luca stopped and got off him. Leo helped himself up on his feet and wondered what had gotten into his brother.On the other hand, Luca had seen an outlet to empty his grieving heart. Aurora pushing him away didn't sit right with him."It's been seven months now, Luca." Leo said "It was the result of our making up...months ago. I..I didn't expect that she'd get pregnant."Luca asked only one thing, "Where's Andrea?""I..I don't know. It's what I came here to ask for help for. She left and has not returned.""How could she return?" Luca turned to his brother "You hurt her badly,
