Chapter 88 The end of the game 

We sat there for a little while, when I heard dad sighing 

“Maybe they told the truth then, and she is fine.” 

“Why do you think that?”

“Look son, we know that Alice’s mother was one of them. Bianchi was the first guy of the old D’angeli. Even if they never forgave Fiorella and Charles, they might have welcomed their never–seen relative back. In that case Alice belongs to them, they protect her, but that also means Alice can’t be a 

Sullivan.” 

“Is Bianchi still alive?” 

“No, the Devilles burned their house down long ago, after Fiorella left. Signore & Signora Bianchi died in the fire. They had a horrible death and the old D’angeli took his revenge in a way that we have never seen, not even since.” 

“How? 

“You don’t want to know that Seth. You know, maybe after I had my own family I softened a bit too, I don’t want to tell you about it, because I never want any of you to experience the world that we were living in at the same age that you are now. Think about the Devilles. They never softened nor changed. Think about hell and multiply it by a hundred.” 

Even if I thought about my stupid brother this time, I felt it right 

at to ask him th 

the question what I always wanted to ask, but I never dared to do so 

“Why me, dad? I have a nice family, who I’d die for, I’ve never been reckless or unobedient. Why 

by the?” 

My dad sighed. 

“The reason is exactly what you just said. Unfortunately none of us could choose if we want to live this life, we just continue what we were born into. You know the value of our heritages, and just like you said you never were reckless. Your calmness and smartness makes you able to do this safely as possible, protecting our loved ones. I’m not saying that Gideon won’t get there. Alice changed him a lot, but I think he still needs time.” 

I sighed. Somehow it was nice to feel he trusted me that much, but still I hated that I can’t change my life. 

I turned on the engine, and I drove back home. We didn’t talk on the way. I think both of us were thinking. I felt sorry for Gideon. 1 felt that this had to be the end of the game, and for our family’s sake he must accept that 

What my dad told me made sense. It really seemed like Riccardo didn’t want to hurt Alice. By taking her he might have brought her home only, and if she was one of them, then she had indeed nothing to do in our family, I was sure if they would be together happily my family would accept the connection with the Italians, but it wouldn’t work the other way round. Riccardo would never let one of them be a part of us, and Gideon must understand that. 

“How much do you want to tell Gideon?” I asked dad. He was thinking. 

“I think the best would be to tell him everything as soon as possible. If he’d know that belongs to, he would understand, he must forget about her.” 

is fine, he could be at ease, and if he knows who Alice 

“I think he’ll go back to the life that he lived before then I was seriously worried about that 

“I know, but hopefully we’ll be able to hold him back.” 

“I don’t think so, dad.” 

He lowered his head, and his facial expression changed. I never saw him like that before 

“Seth, I have a plan, and you have to help me.” 

I frowned, while I stared at him. 

Eart, dad.” 

The shook his head

“Just promise me.” 

I looked into his eyes for a few moments, and I saw that he was serious. I nodded, 

“Good, and now we can go.” 

We went back into the house. The gazes questioned us, how it went, but the questions were answered by our faces. My mum looked at us sadly then lowered her head. I never saw her like this. She was hurt and I could see she held her tears back. 

“Hey beautiful, would you come with grandpa? I got you a present.” My dad told Ava. She looked at him and smiled while standing up and walked to 

him. 

I knew why he did that. He wanted to take her away, so I can tell everything to mum a
