Chapter 0103 +25 BONUS Chapter 0101 ELODIE Bloody hell! where did he cfrom? Olivia just scoffed then left us there. I wanted to stop her, tell her to saveand that I was sorry. That I didn't mean to hit her. But it was too late, she was gone, and I was left with the monster I used to call my brother. Right now, he looked exactly as he did the day he wanted to kill me.
The day my father pardonedand banishedinstead of havingkilled. Luke was livid that day, he wanteddead, but he could not killwhen the Don had already pardoned me. "You think you can do as you please with my daughter like your father did, is that it Elodie? Or you just don't respectenough to stop yourself from doing shit like this?" A shiver ran down my spine, I got cold and yet it was hot outside. "Luke, I didn't mean to but the things you are doing are leavingwith no other choice but to take my revenge on her. you are hurting my son, Luke." He gavea dry chuckle.
what t your father did to her andis not enough. You have to go and hit her, is that right?" I kept my mouth shut. There was no point in saying anything to him when he was like that. I regretted hitting Olivia as well. I didn't mean to. But I got so angry when she didn't show any concern for Nick He did a lot for her and yet she forgot all about that. “AnswerElodie, or do you wantto show you how angry I am?" I scoffed, what was he going to do? We were in a hospital for goodness's sake and one that I now OWIL.

I yelled but he wouldn't listen. The funny part was that the hospital staff that we passed, did nothing.
They just looked and continued with what they were doing didn't understand how people could just watch a woman being dragged away like that and do nothing. Just what kind of people did James hire in the damn hospital! When we got to the stairs Luke let go then glared at me. “Do you think I wouldn't do anything to you because we are here or because we were raised together or maybe because you are a woman. Which one is it?" I knew better than anyone that it didn't matter that I was a woman.
Luke and I had the straining and woman or not. The mafia didn't care, if they want you dead, you die. I kept quiet, the hope I had now gone. "I thought as much.” He said then lunged at me. I dodged the attack, and he stumbled almost falling down the stairs.
He steadied himself then chuckled. "That's what am talking about, that is the Elodie I want not the rich housewife you have been pretending to be." I threw my bag to the side and ripped the opening on my skirt to givemore room. It was tI fought back against Luke.
Money and men we both had. Our fight had nothing to do with that, if we wanted, we could go into war for months, even years with no one surrendering. If that were to happen, many innocent people would die. I didn't want that.
"There you go little sis. Tto show big brother what you are made of." He taunted me, just like he did when we were growing up. But back then it was different, he was my big brother, and he wantedto be able to defend myself when the tcame.
Now, we were fighting for our offspring. This time, I was the one who threw a punch. Luke didn't dodge, he welcomed it then smirked. From there on it was a full-blown fight with us exchanging punches. I could fight, but I felt his hit, he was a man and when he hit me. he made sure I felt it.
At spoint we fell and ended up at the bottom of the stairs. "Stop!" he stopped and looked at me. "I get the point Luke, I do, and I am scared of you. But how long are you going to punishfor, you already killed my +25 BONUS Chapter 0101 husband and my father Luke. What more do you want?" That was when I broke down and cried. Pain of losing James sat heavy on my shoulders, my chest tightened. I was not sure if it was because of exhaustion from the fight or because of the pain in my heart. I sat there feeling helpless and heart broken.

"You did what?” a familiar voice sounded, and I lifted my lead to look.
Tears stained my cheeks but seeing him madecry even more. He looked like a younger version of father; I never notice how alike they were until now. Uncle went into hiding the moment we got to New Village but protectedfrom the shadows. It had been years since I last saw his face and seeing him now madebreak down. “I killed the Don, good to see you again Matteo."
"You killed my brother?" he closed the small distance between him and Luke. I stopped crying and watched. "Why would it bother you that I killed him? the man took your wdman and married her, then banished you for sleeping with her. you still want to fight for him?" what? "He was my brother!" Luke chuckled. He was not bothered at all by uncle's outburst. But if I were him, I would be afraid. "You know, Matteo. I found something interesting in the Don's office when I went through his things. Want to know what I found?" Uncle backed up. “Leave Luke and never show your face in New Village again." Luke laughed like he heard the biggest joke. "And if I don't leave, what are you going to do?" uncle glared at him. "Don't tryLuke..."
Luke cut him short. "No, don't try me, Matteo. You left Summer Strand with your tail between your legs and m chose to leave with Elodie. I never understood why until now. Why don't you tell her why you chose to leave with her and why your brother spared you." Uncle said nothing and cto helpup. “Like father, like daughter." Luke said then laughed walking away. Uncle froze and so did I.
