Chapter 96 The sad truth
“Signora, may 1 ask where are you going?”
“Some private matters. Signore D’angell doesn’t need to know about it. Do not to disturb him. He is celebrating his wedding anniversary with his wife. I have all of your numbers, and I can ask for help if needed.”
“But Signora
“I’ll be back soon and please just do what I said”
He nodded, but his face showed disappointment. I didn’t really care if he would tell Riccardo I left. I didn’t plan to stay out for long, but I felt like I had

I typed the place’s name into the GPS, and my heart started pounding faster when I saw the familiar building. I just sat in the car for a while watching the club that belonged to him.
“Do it, Alice.” I ordered myself, and I left the car. I walked to the main entrance, and I paid for the entry. The guys were familiar, but I didn’t expect them to recognise me I changed a lot since I met them, and that was useful for me at that moment.
04:30
I walked inside. The loud music hurt my ears, but I moved on. I knew the room where he had his private table. It was on the top floor in the VIP room. I walked inside, but I was stopped at the entrance.
looked at the guy. I didn’t know what I should say.
“Lessard, but I’ll make it easy for you. I’m not on the list.”
“Then we can’t let you in.” They laughed. I lowered my head while my lips curled into a smile.
“I can pay for it.”
They laughed again.
“You look pretty. You could start with me then.” One of them said, which angered me.
“What about this?” I showed a bundle of money, which apparently made them think. They looked at each other, and they looked around. One of them took the money from my hand, then opened the cordon rope.
“If you make trouble, we will get you and throw you out mercilessly.” He talked to me seriously. I only smiled at him, and I walked into the room.
I knew where I had to go to see him. First, I walked to the bar. I only asked for water. The bartender put it on the bar, but I didn’t touch it. I just looked at his private table. It was empty, but there were a few empty glasses, a woman’s suit jacket, and my heart pounded faster to see another jacket as well. I recognised it. It belonged to Gideon
I looked around, searching for him, but I couldn’t see him anywhere. I desperately searched the crowd, hoping I would find him. Just to Gemma was wrong. After searching for a while, I nearly gave up on seeing him, when a strange feeling of someone watching me moved my gaze. That
PROVE that was him. He looked straight into my eyes. He was surprised, but what really took my attention was that blonde, whorish slut that stuck to him like glur.
I felt like someone was ripping my heart out. My chest was heavy, and if I couldn’t cry before this time, I felt I wouldn’t be able to hold my tears ba
I back.
I turned around suddenly and I ran out. I didn’t know if I only hallucinated hearing hins shouting my name, but I felt like I had to get out of there, and most of all, I had to forget him for a lifetime. Even if it would hurt me for a long time, maybe in my whole life, but I had to forget every single thing about him. Forever.
I quickly got into my car, then I turned on the engine. I didn’t wait. Not even a second, I drove away. I couldn’t really see the road as my tears flowed. I have never felt a pain like that.
When I was far enough, I pulled the car on the side of the road. I clenched the steering wheel, and I pushed my forehead to it, sobbing my heart out
At that moment, I hated I got to know him. I hated I hoped I could be happy with him, I hated everything that all happened to me.

phone pulled me back to reality from my daze, I looked at it. It was Riccardo. I took a few deep breaths, hoping he wouldn’t notice I was crying.

“Alke, what happened? Where are you?”
“I
just. forgot my skates at the sports centre. I just wanted to see if I could get in and take them. Finally, I broke them in and that would be a time loss to get new ones.”
The line was quiet for a while. He was still at the party. I could hear that, but he was somewhere outside.
“Alice, I’m worried. Just go home, please.”
“I’m on my way now. I’ll be there in about fifteen minutes.”
“Okay.” He remained quiet for a moment, then he sighed. “Call me if you need me.”
