Speak Of The Devil Chapter 82
Early the next morning, Aurora had woken up late despite setting the alarm as early as six. She knew that Luca would leave for work that early and she wanted it to seem like she'd bumped into him. She wanted to speak to him however it was impossible now.The waist trainers she had worn caused her a lot of pain and inconvenienced the kids. Still, she had sauntered to Luca's room hoping that by some miracle he would be around. However, that was not the case. Sighing, she turned on her heels but did not expect Sandra to be behind her. The latter laughed."What are you doing here?" she asked Aurora "You snitch! Aren't you standing before me in that big belly?? What did you use to hide it, huh? Why didn't you tell everyone the truth?! Just like me, you love the wealth and luxurious life that comes with being married to Luca. Yet you stood against me when I have every right to be married to Leo. I am with his child! But you're carrying a bastard!""I'm not like you," Aurora replied calmly "

Sandra was not satisfied. She had her nose stuck everywhere. The moment she saw Aurora leaving the mansion, she had followed suit and was now seated few meters away with a man she had paid to take photos.She thought Aurora had come to see Matteo, her lover but was disappointed when she saw that it was only a friend. She decided to wait a little while but was getting fed up. However, left with little patience she was prepared to leave when the person she had been waiting for showed up. Excited, she got the henchman to be at alert and take photos which she would send to Luca and Leo at the office.On the other hand, Matteo had waited all night for Aurora's response but there was none. By sheer luck, he'd overhead Amber asking if it is the ice cream shop. He'd come by a little later and was glad Aurora was there.Amber got up on her feet, "Are you crazy?! How dare you follow me here!Aurora also stood up and held Amber back."Don't create a scene, people are watching" Aurora whispered "

At the office, Leo finally found an avenue to speak to Luca. Walking in with a folder in his hands, he shut the door behind him.Seeing the documents in hand, Luca said nothing.Leo dropped the files on his desk and noticed that Aurora's picture that had replaced Rachel's was face down on the desk. It was a warning not to broach the topic but still Leo wouldn't leave without accomplishing his goal."These are the files you requested from your secretary," Leo broke the silence.Without looking up, Luca said "I requested the secretary to bring them to my office, why are you here?"He added sarcastically, "Since when did you turn to my secretary?""I..I happened to be passing by when you placed the order from the intercom. I saw that she was busy so I helped her with it. It's not bad to help is it?""Don't play smart with me, Leo." Luca still had his head focused on his laptop, "Were you just passing by or were you in fact with my secretary?""What??""You already have a marriage prepar

Aurora absentmindedly shut her room door behind her and flopped on the bed. Things were becoming tough day by day and she didn't know what to do.She only knew that when the truth eventually surfaces, she would have to leave the house and maybe Luca's life. She would be alone with absolutely no one.She thought of getting a job but it was already too late. Her pregnancy is slowly coming to light at three months and no one would employ a pregnant woman.What to do then? Return to Matteo? They're his kids anyway but Aurora ruled out this option. Perhaps she would have to seek a menial job anyway. Something to get her and her kids in good condition.Amidst these thoughts, she slept off but not for long. Still sleepy, she was startled awake when her door flung hard against the wall. The impact created a loud thud that made her sit up on the bed.She was surprised to find Luca in her room. She swiftly jumped out of the bed and continued to stare at him.Although she had been looking for a

The night was tough for all of them.For Luca because he blamed himself for everything and believed that Aurora was only getting back at him for the times he'd hurt her. Sitting by the side of his window, he drank to stupor.He wished that she had just forgiven him and let him show her how much he was sincere of his actions. "But it's fine," he mumbled incoherently.For Leo, he was in a confused and frustrated state. He began to wonder if his decision to let Andrea go and remain with Sandra was the right decision. He became even more frustrated when he got to a dead end. The dead end was a reminder that his unborn child is completely innocent of his mother's sins.Unable to stop thinking, he grabbed a bottle of Scotch and found solace in it.Sandra did not expect that things would backfire and cause her pain. All the years she'd known Leo, he'd never laid his hand on her say less of raising his voice on her. That aside, he rarely got mad at her. Her feelings were hurt by his choice o

Despite the acceleration of her heartbeat she still walked into the room. The stench of vomit and alcohol crept into her nostrils. "Luca?" she called but did not receive an answer. She placed the tray on drawer and looked around for him but he was nowhere there. Aurora stared at the bottles at the side of the bed. She didn't want to count but she was sure it was up to ten. Did he drink himself to stupor? She panicked as she opened the bathroom door and peeped in.Luca was bent over the basin, his muscular body seemed as if it would give way and fall any moment. She rushed back to the room and grabbed a glass of water and returned to the bathroom.She went in front of him and held his face."Here, have a drink." she pushed the glass of water to his mouth and he only had little before he spat out the rest. Breathing heavily and still rooted in the hangover, he knew who it was beside him. Even though she was trying to help, it only rekindled the anger he had downed with alcohol. Seeing

When Aurora became fully awake, she found Luca beside her. His arms were wrapped around her and her head rested on his broad shoulder. Again, she found herself staring at his handsome face. His well chiseled jawline and pointed nose.Shutting her eyes, she squeezed herself against his warmth and caressed his face, smiling as she did so.After several rounds, she was overwhelmed with fatigue and let Luca take her to the bath. She didn't know when she fell asleep but she was glad to wake up beside him and in his arms.But the happiness was shortlived the moment she realized that she'd be leaving today. Guilt welled up in her knowing that despite being pregnant for someone else, she still let Luca lie with her.She sighed and her hand dropped from his face to his chest."Luca," she whispered "I remember the day my parents told me I'd be getting married to a Mafia. A man with no regard for humans and someone I had no feelings for."She continued, "Then, I was in love with Matteo, my first

On getting to her room, she locked the door behind her and began to pack her things. It was past noon time and it wasn't until she finished packing did she realize that she had no where to go.Going back to her previous house was an easy way to be found. Since she had only little money left, she decided to sell the house and use the little amount for her kids before she could get a stable job.While she was deep in thoughts, her phone began to ring.Her gaze landed on the drawer table where her phone was left. She picked it up and saw that it was Amber. Gosh, could she have been calling since her phone had been in here? Aurora wondered before clicking the answer button."Oh goodness!" Amber shrieked on the other end "Aurora are you okay?! Why didn't you pick up your phone?? You scared me!"Aurora chuckled silently. Amber would have her head should she tell her that she was with Luca enjoying a sizzling romance while Amber was worried."I'm fine. I had to help Mrs Genovese over some th
