Chapter 127 A hidden girlfriend
He sighed.
“Why do you think there is something wrong?”
*Because you are not like this”
“Like what?”
“Gentle.”
“Can’t I be gentle with you?”
“Gideon…”
He sighed, and he caressed my face with his fingers.
“Alice, you know I love you so much and you are the most important thing to me. You are the best thing that could ever happen to me.”
Normally, I would have felt thrilled to hear him saying these kinds of things to me, but this time, I had a bad feeling.
“Gideon, you make me scared.”
“Alice, you know what is going on with my family?”
“You mean they are changed toward you because you didn’t give up on me?”
“No, I didn’t mean that. I meant Amber.”
Mentioning that name not just hurt me, but it also made me angry. I sat up, breaking free from his embrace.
“What about her?”
He sat up too.
“My father wants to bring her into the family. He completely changed. Even Seth thinks that isn’t normal. He was waiting for me here yesterday and we had a good chat.”
I looked at him, worried.
“Did he sees?”
“Yes, he knows I’m with you, and he won’t say anything to anyone. That isn’t a problem.““So, what is the problem?”
He sighed again.

“Dad always loved us. He never been like this. I wouldn’t have imagined one day he would want to force me to someone who I hate just to bring 08:3: person into the family. Seth and I both think somehow someone is threatening him. He ordered Seth to find out where I was and make me obey. He told him if he doesn’t want to do this to me, then he is the next to divorce.”
What he said made me frown. That was indeed weird. He continued
“Seth asked him what was wrong, but he said he didn’t need to know everything. He doesn’t want to talk about it, Alice. So the only solution is to find out what is happening without his knowledge
“Riccardo could help”
He shook his head.
“No, Alice, please don’t forget that the D’angeli and the Sullivan family are on the opposite side. I mentioned it to Seth, but he doesn’t even want to hear that. There is no way he would accept Riccardo’s help.”

“But Cidron, I’m his daughter.”
“Yes, and in Seth’s opinion, I should just make you come with me, leave your family and join mine.”
“I would never leave them. I finally have a family and
they are treating me so well.”
“i know, Alice, but in
it in this case.
what I would really want is just to
to run away with you. To live with you.”
“Then what is the problem?”
He looked at me suddenly, and it seemed
ed like my question angered him a little.
“The problem is my father is in trouble, my family is in trouble. And when I say trouble, you know what I mean. Missing people, killed and sold people and God knows what else. I just can’t let that happen. They are my family and I love them. I must help them, Alice.”
“So, what do you want to do?” I hugged my knees, afraid of his answer.
He sighed as he lowered his head. I didn’t like that at all
“Alice, you know I haven’t touched another woman since I have you, and I have no intention of doing that, but I’m afraid in this case I’ll have to play the game.”
I looked at him suddenly this time.
“Wait, what? What do you mean?”
I trembled inside. I felt a massive pain in my chest, and what he said angered me as well.
“I mean, I would play the game, so my father would think I became obedient, and I will do what he says. If I could do that, we could earn time to find out what is happening and solve it.”
I left the bed, then I put my clothes on. I was angry and hurt..
“So you literally would be with the two of us, am I right?”
“No. You misunderstand. I would work with her and I would endure that she will be next to me at events, dinners, whatever, but that is all Alice, I love you, and I would never touch that whore. I would touch no one else.”
I laughed out painfully. It made me remember something.
