LORENZO POV

Ever since Ari revealed to us about the imposter, my time at the company was cut off as I was helping Verzi to catch the mole. It wasn’t like he needed help, he was perfectly capable of doing it all by himself. I just wanted to share the burden with him, more so because Ari was involved. And wherever she is concerned, it goes without saying; I had to be there.

If it were just anything, he would have had the reigns all to himself.

We‘ve been doing things secretly, not showing because there were eyes and ears everywhere. And if that was how things were, we weren’t going to just go head-on towards this issue. We did most of our talking in Tower Lounge because it was private. We didn’t trust anyone lately around the west wing, because maids were parading the whole wing and who knows, (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) the mole might be just anyone of those. So the Tower Lounge was the safest place to go about the

issue.

After making the thorough plans, Verzi would go out to dig, and then we’d come to discuss his findings. That routined just fine.

And Ari, our baby girl was doing very well with her training. I loved her enthusiasm and the fact that she didn’t need to be reminded about something she had to do. On more occasions than one, we found her in the gym on the treadmill, and then this one time she was sparring with Ciello and I was really proud of her. Raquel took her smoothly on a match but I was proud of her improvements. Her speed has improved a lot and she was so alert and sharp. Things were going really well.

I can still remember her first day of training. She had looked like a train wreck. Just the mere thought of it sent me doubling up with laughter.

I was currently typing some document when Verzi burst through the door looking so furious like he’d butcher anything in his way.

“Found something?” I asked even before he could say anything. He didn’t need to. It was written all over his face and whatever he found, it wasn’t good.

“You’ve got to see this one.” He said and then turned back to leave. I shut off my laptop and followed him. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) He was stomping angrily as we made our way to the security room. As soon as we entered, he barked to the poor guy who was on duty, and he in return didn’t even question, just scurried off silently leaving us in the room.

I turned the lock on and it made a soft clicking sound as it shut us inside.

“What have you found?” I asked walking closer to where he was. He was typing insanely fast a t the keyboards, and after a few heartbeats, a few clips appeared on the huge screen that marred the entire wall.

“No fucking way!” A shocked gasp tore out of me. It couldn’t. It just couldn’t!

“These are the deleted clips. I don’t know why, but Valerie has been up to something very shady.” He pointed to the small box which showed Valerie sneaking out of her room, at night. And she was sure to avoid all the cameras and be in their blindspot.

“But why? I don’t understand.” I said defeated. I couldn’t have thought that of all people, SHE, I mean She, Valerie Romano would be plotting something against our woman.

“Shit!” I cursed and slowly sunk into the chair while staring defeatedly at the monitors, showing her as she sneaked out of her room at night. These were just a few clips Verzi managed to retrieve, although

they didn’t show the whole picture, the truth was right in front of our eyes.

The whole videos have been deleted, leaving just a few clips. They could mean anything, just anything at all which had nothing to do with the imposter. But why were they deleted? What was it that she’s been doing in secret that had to be deleted from us?

“I am going to kill that son of a bitch.” Verzi yelled as he slammed his hands against the keyboards.

“But why would she want to get rid of Ari? I thought she knew her place?”

“I don’t care. I don’t give zero fucks if she knows her place or she doesn’t. But she is going to explain what she has been doing when everyone went to bed. See? All of these clips show that she sneaked off around 1 am. Why? Because all of us are sleeping at that time. Yes. And she thought she could take that as an advantage and plan something evil against Leigh. Oh, God help her.” Verzi let out a series of curses as he began pacing up and down. I was just as baffled as he was.

I tried to find reasons why she could possibly hate Ari to the extent that she wants her dead, but I came off with nothing. I thought they were cool? I mean they hung around a lot, they had fun when they were together and I’d find them gossiping and laughing on more occasions than one. Didn’t that mean anything to Valerie? Like she hated Ari so much that she bared her teeth to her while being in cahoots with her? Who would hate someone to that extent? And Ari liked her. (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) I have seen how she looks at her with appreciation. And all along this bitch has wanted to get rid of her? And Xander, how the hell did she even manage to get Xander scooped in all of this? Has she been planning it all along? Because if Xander was in the picture, it meant things weren’t as simple as they looked. But why? Just why would she want t o take Ari from us?

The more I thought about it, the more my blood boiled. I couldn’t begin to think of the things I was going to do to her if I laid my hands on her. She could steal my wealth, sell off my company’s biggest trade secrets, kill me for all I care, but for goodness sake, laying a hand on Ari meant doom for her and everyone she cared for.

“This is going to crash Ari.” I pointed out. My girl was so pure and so kind. And this world

didn’t deserve her. No one deserved to be Ari and her pure heart Heck, even the wretched us weren’t worthy of her. We were sinful, full of hatred and scars, impure, unworthy of redemption. But she, our beautiful angel chose to love and accept, despite everything we’ve put her through. Since the very beginning, we have always been full of greed when it came to her. Possessiveness, being territorial, that’s how it has always been because that’s how fucked up we were.

In middle school, we crippled a fucker with braces because she put a fake rose in her bag on Valentine’s Day. We beat every asshole who claimed to love her to poop. And she never knew a thing about that. She didn’t have to. Because she has been ours. And we even went on by taking her innocence, even when she was unwilling. But we forced ourselves on her You see that right there? That showed we never deserved her. For all the things we have done, we never deserved her. But our girl still accepted us, regardless of us being so ruined and damaged. 1

“More reasons to kill the bitch before she knows.” Verzi spat and halted his steps.

“You know she’s going to ask where Valerie is. She will be suspicious if she just disappeared into thin air. You know her.” I said staring at him. He was right on the verge of losing it. He was at the pinnacle, just waiting to tip over the edge. And if he did, God help whoever stood in his way!

“We don’t say anything. I get rid of Valerie and it’s all done Simple. The bitch deserves to burn in Dark Woods. Even burning is a smooth way to die. I have to cut every finger from her hands, and then break every single bone in her. One by one. If she passes out from pain and shock, I will put her in a tub of ice, let her freeze until she is blue and frosted….”

“Guys…” A soft muffled voice followed by a small knock sounded on the door.

“Hello, are you in here? I am done with Ciello, ready for the next round” Ani’s angelic voice penetrated through the door, reaching to us and freezing us in our positions. Verzi stared at m e with wide eyes and

then looked back at the monitor.

“Shit!” We both cursed and jumped onto the keyboards, then typed hurriedly as to hide the clips on the monitor.

“Vernero why is the door locked?” She asked in a much louder voice this time.

“Are you doing something shady in there? I bet you have a girl with you.” She said in a sing song voice.

“What? No…. I am just deleting these clips.” Oh, fuck!

“Shut up.” I whisper yelled and kicked his leg. This fucker couldn’t take a joke. Ari was joking, and he got so worked out and even spilled that he is deleting something.

“Enzo is that you?” She asked and that’s how I knew we were fucked. She heard me too.

“Yes, Tesoro I’m in here,” I said and got from the seat Verzi looked at me like I was crazy

“I have to open for her,” I whispered and pointed at the door. If I didn’t open while she was still in a good mood, then we were all as good as dead.

“What? We have to get rid of this before she enters in here.”

“I am waiti n g!” Ari taunted from the door and I couldn’t help myself. My feet moved o n their own accord and I unlocked the door, and then softly opened it. I found her seating down with her back against the door. As soon as it creaked open, she jumped up and smiled, then stood on her tip-toes and sneaked a quick kiss on my lips that shot a sharp shock of electricity to my brain; and then pushed me to the side and maneuvered inside.

“So, whom are you shagging in here?” She asked as she walked towards Verzi and hugged him from the back.

I shook my head and closed the door, then walked further inside. Leigh-Ari was one hell of a kitten full of curiosity. She was just so full of energy and always supercharged like oh my goodness. And seeing her in the cute tights and bra with trainers, her hair all messy on her head, I just had to remind myself how blessed and lucky we are every day to have this woman by our side. She had on this pair of gloves that she was so obsessed with. She always put them on and claimed they give her some energy! As to how they do that, only she could answer that question.

“What are you doing?” She untangled herself from Verzi and walked beside him, then stared a t the screen as Verzi typed furiously at the keyboards. Why were these things taking forever?

“Wait, that’s Val?” She pointed out and placed her hands on and stopped him, (This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com) but Verzi quickly swatted her hand away and increased his speed in typing. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Nope. That’s not her.” I said casually and walked to her, then pulled her so that her attention was all on me while Verzi finished up.

“Hey, I am not stupid. I saw Val. What was she doing? Show me.” She turned in my hold and stared at the screen. Luckily, Verzi had just completed deleting everything and then strained up and looked at her. We had to change this system. It complicated things!

“It’s nothing. Stop being so nosy.” Verzi said in his usual cold tone. She thinned her eyes at him and stared at him for a good minute, and the said:

“You are hiding something from me.” She pointed out plain, and flat.

Verzi seemed to be caught off guard. He opened his mouth to say something, then looked at m e with a bewildered look and closed his mouth yet again. We were caught!

“Enzo, what is it?” She stared at me from her shoulder.

“It’s nothing to worry your pretty head with.” I leaned in to kiss her neck, but she turned full and looked at us, then bundled her arms across her chest.

“Lorenzo, Vernero, I am not going to ask again. What are you hiding from me?” She asked in a

much more serious voice this time. I looked up at Verzi to find him staring at me. He wiggled his eyes urging me to say something. I arched my brow at him because there was no way I was going to walk into the lion’s den. How could I possibly tell her that Valerie, whom she held in the highest regards was the one who wanted to kill her?

“Fine! Since you all don’t want to talk, and then just keep with it.” She said and angrily walked away, after bumping us with her small body.

“It’s Valerie.” I blurted out just right before she yanked the door open. She huffed and turned, then placed her hands on her waist.

“Yes I saw that it was Valerie on the screen. What about her?” She was pissed off right now.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)

“We did a little digging and it’s her.” I tried to explain in a much smoother way, but my brother had a very different plan.

“She’s the imposter!” Verzi ripped off the band-aid, causing her jaw to drop with shock ! “What?”
