An Italian's Virgin Escort Series novel Chapter 42

Leonardo Point of View

What the F*** was he speaking?

Noah Thomas was not guilty? The f***?

The matter was going out of hand and I need to do something before Lilliput come to know about everything. I shouldn't let her know the whole story at any cost.

No, I can't lose her.

After going through a lot I was finally happy to marry the girl I love so much and she turned to be Noah's sister.

What if she knows about... No, No I should not let her know about it any further. Not when Noah was proving to be a loyal person for Bianchi's.

"Are you – sure?" I asked Paolo who was quiet and anxious. He nodded in confirmation and looked away from glaring Val.

"You – killed my brother?" Lilliput caught my collar and shook me rashly. She was crying so hard and I know that the pain that consumed her right now is consuming her control.

How? How did take such a decision of killing someone in such haste?

Oh my god, why didn't I double check it. Why didn't I confront him directly?

Noah was not my PA. He was one my tracker. My grandfather use to handle few underworld stuff to get our empire to this position and we always have personal trackers and investigators with us who would do those underworld dealing and unfortunately Noah was one of them.

Noah was hard working and was a very smart person. He was always loyal to us and I was so blinded by the rage that I didn't even double check the facts.

What am I going to answer Lilliput now?

I was quiet and lowered my head in shame. I want to tell her something – anything that would sooth her ache and agony but I found no word to talk. I couldn't lift up my head and look into her eyes.

I'm so disgraced by my own actions.

"Father ordered Noah to investigate about our mom. He got smoke of mom cheating on him so he ordered Noah to keep this investigation a secret until they find proofs." Val explained with teary eyes and looked at Lilliput with painful eyes.

Wait... a minute.

She knew about all this?

Val knew?

She f***ing knew about everything and didn't think to tell me at all?

"Why did you kill my brother? You should've checked before ordering your people to kill someone. Oh no, killing itself is the worst punishment for any mistake then why did you do it? WHY DID YOU KILL MY BROTHER, YOU MONSTER? WHY...Y...YY" She screamed and bawled out loudly throwing punches at me. That's when I noticed that her hands are bloodied.

Ah no!

"WHY?" She yelled again and again slapping me hard over and over. Phoebe immediately pulled her off from me and hugged her tightly, crying hard herself.

"Phoebe, he – he killed my brother. He's a monster Phoebe. How can someone kill another? How can he kill my brother? Didn't he know my brother had a family too who were dependent on him?" Lilliput cried and hugged Phoebe. "Why did this happen to me, Phoebe? What had I and my brother ever done to receive such a harsh punishment? WHY?"

"Ssh, calm down dear. Calm down. Ssh. You need to control yourself or you'll be sick." Phoebe patted Lilliput's back and tried to control her.

I felt tears forming in my eyes and I did not make any effort to wipe them. These tears are not mine. They are Sienna's. These painful tears are my Lilliput's, whose life I destroyed completely.

She was right. I am a monster. A monster who don't have a heart.

I'm a monster to kill the only family she had. Her parents were already dead when she was small and I am the filthiest person to take her only family away from her and...and...

"W-wait. Wait a second." She whispered softly getting out of Phoebe's hug and looked at me accusingly.

Oh no! No Sienna, I know where your thoughts are going but please, please do not go there.

"If Paolo killed my brother on your order, then –" She paused her sentence and looked at me with Millions of hard and painful emotions which seems to be getting unbearable for me to bear.
