*Please wait for a moment” My ex–father–in–law’s deep voice vibrated across the hall. I turned to face him with my face devoid of any
emotion.
“I do not approve of Vanessa’s cruel acts, and for that, I will surely punish her.” He began, making Madam Vanessa tremble in fear.
His tone was clipped when he continued, “Since it’s our Giovanni family’s fault you can ask for anything in return I will make sure to give it to you be it money or estate to make a for your loss.”
“Then please tell me what amount of money could make up for the pain I received in here?” his expression turned cold when I refused the insulting offer.)
“You are still the madam of Giovanni family’s young son because I will never give recognition to this divorce of yours.
We’d like you to return to the mansion,” he continued, his sharp gaze fixed on me and Damien. “As Alex’s wife, if you agree to it I will name you the CEO of Maximum Enterprises and would not interfere on how you treat Vanessa.”
“Excuse me?“My breath caught in my throat as I looked at him incredulously. Not only did he want me to forget everything but did not even care if I tortured his wife to death.!!
‘Baby…Elena, I know I have messed up, but I will do whatever you want for you and our children. If we could just start over I will make it up for you?
Alex pleased with the proposal, stepped forward, his expression softer.
“I am waiting for your answer Elena, do not disappoint me Mr. Maximus Giovanni, my father–in–law continued only to be interrupted in between by a bone–chilling laughter!!
The word disappointment does not suit Elena but your father. After killing my mother are you still not satisfied that you are trying to take. away Elena from me too? Damien spat in rage, almost losing his patience with his father.
I clutched Damien’s arm tightly giving him reassurance when Maximus Giovanni looked ready to murder, his aura
chilling
Other family members and the extended family held their breaths, not even daring to even breathe loudly in the tense atmosphere. “Damien!” Maximus Giovanni roared in warming “How dare you drag Elizabeth into this matter?! She was my wife too-
“Was she now? Or maybe she was just a tool to make you feel satisfied by securing her innocent love and trampling upon it. Trying to be the prince charming for a woman who did not knew of your dirty world of conspiracies?!
Do you feel so guilty of Elena’s poisoning incident because your aunt too tormented my mother while you pretended to be unaware and just enjoyed the show?”
“How dare you?! My father–in–law came down his fists clenched in rage.
“What do you fucking know! I never intended Elizabeth to be harmed, but the family needed me!”
“So it has always been about money and empire, right?
Now that I think about it, you and Alex are just the same, both throwing away the person who sacrificed everything for them and destroying their family. But I will not let Elena end up like my mother
