He could not believe what he was seeing. His hands trembled like they had just been scaled by hot oil.It was like, the moment he opened that phone, his world grew dark alongside his emotions.His face was blank... void of everything.Lady Camilla stared at him, understanding instantly that was a look from one distressed.She wondered what was the problem and why he looked like he had just seen a ghost.“Marco? Marco! Is everything okay?”No answer.Marco did not hear Lady Camilla calling his name at first. His eyes were still locked on the phone screen, his breath turning shallow, his fingers tightening until his knuckles turned pale. The video kept looping… an image he could not tear away from, no matter how violently his heart begged him to stop watching.It was right there before him.The woman crying… begging for her life and to be spared as Stefano demanded her silence like he had taken a job at the killers unit.She looked scared, so much that goosebumps suddenly started sprea

As soon as Don Lugard had gotten off the call with Sal, he headed back to Empire Fortuna immediately. He did not go to his office this time around as he usually did. He went downstairs where Susan was already tied up and tortured very well."So you were the one who had been giving Dante information about the club all the while. How dare you betray Empire Fortuna?" Don Lugard questioned her without seriousness in his face."Sir, I did not give him any information about the club. I have not been in contact with him since he was expelled, and I have never betrayed the club," Susan said as she was crying in pain."I can see that you are not willing to speak up and tell me what you and Dante have been doing, but guess what, if you don't speak up and tell me everything that has been happening, I am going to kill your son," Don Lugard threatened her.Susan was shocked because she was unaware that he knew she had a son. She had not told anyone that she had a son because she was trying to prot

Margaret looked up from the couch she had managed to sit on. The sound of the front door caused her to turn, only to see David coming in. She had just tried Elena's number for about the sixth time and it was not going through. David's face was unreadable, probably returning from one of the places he usually went. She had to ask him and see if he knew Elena's whereabouts."David, do you know where Elena went?" she hastily asked, hoping he would give her a good answer.But David shrugged reluctantly with his hands open and said, "How am I supposed to know? We both saw her leave."The look in Margaret's eyes showed him that a dismissive response was not going to work in this case."I don't know about your daughter and her exploit," he said with a vague expression and turned to leave.This was when Margaret informed him that Elena had not come back home since she left that morning and that her line was not even going through.David stopped at a step and turned to her."I think I should ca

As Dante left where he had the meeting with Don Lugard, he went straight to his warehouse as he called for a meeting immediately.He called his men to a meeting so that they could discuss the next step they were going to take and he could tell them of the meeting he had with Don Lugard.They all assembled as he told them everything and mocked Don Lugard in front of them all.As they were still gisting and laughing, Sergio walked in angrily as he approached Dante and began questioning him."Uncle, what have you done? What do you think you are doing?" he asked Dante, and then Dante dragged him into his office.As they reached the office, before Sergio could say anything else, Dante had already given him a hot slap on his face and warned him never to talk to him rudely in front of his men again."I am sorry about that, I did not mean to speak to you like that," Sergio apologized, and then Dante hugged him and patted his back.Sergio went ahead to ask him about Elena because Elena was mis

"What do you mean by do I want to see my daughter alive?" Margaret asked the person on the phone call."Madam, it is just a simple question. Do you want to see your daughter alive or not?" the person answered her by still asking her the same question."Of course I want to see her alive, and every mother would want to see their child alive." This time around, she answered the question without making an argument because it was very necessary and important to her."Okay, since you want to see your daughter alive, I think we are going to play a game. Are you in for the game?" the person went ahead to ask her."What game are you talking about? In fact, I am in, so stop…tell me the game and I’m ready to play it," Margaret responded."All right. Since you are in, a text will be sent to your phone immediately. Just follow exactly what you see there, and by that, you are going to see your daughter alive," the unknown person said to her and hung up the call.As Margaret was about to speak, she
