Chapter 110 Warning I swallowed.
âAlice is worth more than my pride, and more than my life. My mistake is undelayable, and it will torture again. Iâm choosing her.
It doesnât matter what price I have to pay for itâ
I still kept my head lowered.
âYour family members turned their backs on you. You are alone. How could you protect her?â
âIâm strong and prestigious enough to create a new group, if that is necessary.â
âAre you?â
for a lifetime. I failed once. I wonât fall He walked to the window. It took a while for him to speak.
âI watched you for a while, Gideon. I know you could change for Alice, but you still have to prove that you are worth being with my daughter, and you are good enough to belong to my family. The only reason Iâm going to give you a chance is because my only daughter loves you.â He remained quiet for a little while, then he continued.
âI always tried to find her, and I missed a lot. Now that she is with me, I try to give her everything that I can, and you have to know she is under my protection. She suffered enough. She canât be harmed anymore.â
He walked in front of me and motioned for me to stand up. I did. He looked into my eyes.
âOnly one chance, Gideon. Keep that in mind.â
I nodded. He nodded too. He walked back to sit down.
âItâs nearly time. Donât let her wait for you. Carlo will take you back to the lounge, wait for her there.â
As soon as he finished the sentence, the door opened, and Carlo looked at me. I turned around, then I walked to him. I knew that my family would abandon me for what Iâve just done. What I just did was called betrayal, but I kept thinking about them doing the same to me.
I followed him. He led me to a living room.
âlet Signorina Dâangeli know you are here.â
I nodded, then I walked to the window. I was thinking. Riccardoâs words echoed in my head. It wasnât just it seemed like Charles was more clever than we thought, and that meant he probably was the part of a bigger group, but he perfectly planned every single step, including the accident. I knew that from now on I couldnât underestimate him, no matter how small he seemed like.
I needed to recruit new people around me, which was hard, as our groupâs principle was trust. And trust canât be built up in a short time. I knew a few people around me from the club who would be loyal to me over my family. I thought I should start there.
And how to prove that I was worthy to be next to Alice? There was only one thing that could amaze Riccardo. If I could catch Charles before he did.
âGideon.â
1 turned around with a sudden move to feel the amazement that my beautiful girlfriendâs look gave me. Her new, lightly curled hair lightly covered her shoulder and back. She chose a nice blue dress which followed her lines gently with a sexy but restrained cleavage, and her stilettos made her taller.
She smiled at me and walked closer. I smiled back. I held her waist to pull her closer gently, and I gave her a light kiss on her lips.
âYou look beautiful.â I whispered to her, keeping her close. Her smile widened âThank you.â
âAre you ready?
She nodded. I lifted my arm up, offering her to wrap hers around it, and we walked to the door. Carlo waited for us to open it and let us out. I still Chapter 110 Warning hated to see him close to me, but my beautiful girlfriend smiled at him.
âThank you, Carlo.â She told him while she walked out, followed by me. I didnât even look at him. Seeing one of their cars waiting for us made me surprised. I was about to show my disappointment, but I reminded myself, itâs not the time yet to go against Riccardoâs wish.
We got into the car, and the driver drove the car to the gate of the land.
I held Aliceâs hand, then I just caressed it with my thumb. She looked calm and happy. That was enough for me.
reached the gate, the driver stopped. I wondered how come my car was parked at the gate. A man came to the car and opened the door. We got out of it.
Wiben âEnjoy your evening,â he said, and he let us go to my car. 1 led Alice to it, and I helped her to get in.
I waited for her to fasten her seatbelt, then i turned the engine on âWhat did Riccardo tell you?â Alice asked me on the way.
I smiled, but my smile wasnât happy at all.
âNothing really.â
âNothing? Really?â She asked me with a slight laugh. I smiled this time widely.
âHe quickly got used to the fact that he has a daughter.â
âHe is nice, Gideon.â
I sighed.
âWell, I donât really know his pleasant side, but if you say so.â
She laughed.
She rested her palm on my tighter remaining quiet for a little while, she turned to look at me.
âWhere are we going?â
âYouâll see that soon. We arenât far awayâ
What I said was the truth. We arrived in five minutes. To see her looking around curiously made me smile. I remembered she said no one ever took her on a date. I was the first in that too.
I got out of the car, and I helped her out too, I thought that was the right time. I looked at her wrist and I was happy that she didnât wear a bracelet. I took the box out of my pocket.
She looked at it, surprised.
âWhat is it?
âPresent.â
She smiled while I opened the box. As soon as she saw its content, her eyes widened âGideon, that is beautifulâ
I took the bracelet from the box, and I put it on her wrist. She looked at it with a broad smile.
âDo you like it?â
âYes,â she said, d, while s she didnât inme her gaze from it.
âDiamonds?â She asked, still avoiding looking at me.
Chapter 110 Warning Her facial expression changed to a satisfied one, which angered me a bit.
âI think I have to ask you to take me on a date more often.â She said.
I stopped and looked at her with a frown. She stood my gaze for a little while, then she bursted into laughter. After holding my waist, she pulled me close. She leaned her head on my chest, still laughing.
âIâm only joking, Gideon.â aking, Gideon.â
I looked down at her.
âYou want my money so badly?â I tried to sound indifferent. I lowered my head.
