Chapter 205 SUED 1
Maisha knew that witch had something to do with all of these, no wonder her Dax was still yet to be found. She should not have accepted her at the beginning, but what could she do now?
.
Elsa arrived at a mansion different from the usual ones she knows or goes to. This mansion felt more like home, and she couldn't wait to meet her parents. She's not been able to see them since she returned home with I am.
"Welcome young Miss Elsa." The butler welcomed her in bowing slightly and she smiled. Stepping into the mansion she could already see her father in the lounge with a man. "Miss Elsa has arrived." The butler announced gaining the attention of the man.
Life has been a mess with her family and living without her parents was now a part of her life. The bond they once shared as a family was no longer there, not that she didn't love them. She loved them so much, but the closeness that once existed between them was now a tale.
Maybe all they needed was a vacation or some time together to create that bond again, but would Liam let her?
"My love." Antonio rose to spread his hands for a hug. He was grateful Liam was with his daughter, the last thing he wanted was her getting worried and worked up over anything. His family was going through a lot right now, keeping Elsa away is the best thing to do.
Earlier Beufort's sisters had sued his wife accusing her of killing their brother, Lou was still undergoing some therapy as she has not fully recovered from the shock.
"Dad!" Elsa rushed in for a big hug, if there was any other way to squeeze the man further she would have done that. She inhaled his scent but didn't love it as much as she loved Liam's scents. "I've missed you so much." She muttered.
"I've missed you too." "Where's mum?" They let go of each other. "Love, mum is fine, she went out for some shopping." That's the only excuse Antonio could think of at the moment. The last thing he wanted was to see a sad expression on his daughter's delicate face.
"Alright." She sounded a little disappointed at what he said but had to believe him.
"This is my daughter." Antonio introduced her to the man sitted on the couch and Elsa gasped. He had a vicious smile on his lips at her reaction, she just didn't think she would see him here. What is he doing here? She thought.
"You don't have to do that Antonio, I already know who your daughter is, I was privileged to have met her," Breitbart said with a smile. The girl looked more beautiful than ever now, he wished his nephew never survived that accident.
After Liam had taken Elsa away, Breitbart was forced to move to the city to find things out for himself, he wanted to know the truth behind everything. He wanted to prove to Liam that everyday thing he heard was framed by his P.A and that Elsa has been taken away from him.
But arriving here and meeting Antonio personally, he feels so ashamed of even attempting to fight with his nephew over his wife. He wouldn't say he wasn't into the girl, Elsa is a beautiful girl, growing rapidly into a fine woman, one that will make both men and women drool over her.
He would make sure to stay far away from her in the future to avoid her seduction, one thing Breitbart has learned from this little woman was that she was a full-time seductress. Hers comes naturally without stress and could lure any man to sin.
"How did you know my beautiful Elsa," Antonio asked curiously. He just met the man a few days ago, it was kind of strange this man already knows who his daughter is. "It's not important, we just happen to know each other," Breitbart explained briefly. He didn't want to ruin the friendship between himself and Antonio, especially now they have a good business deal together.
From his few talks with the man, he knew Antonio's a lord when it comes to business. Elsa had to excuse herself from both men as she stepped further into the mansion. This place was another world on its own, the decor of the mansion was on another level.
The design was exquisite, the master craftsmanship and period finishes blended seamlessly to create a historic masterpiece while embracing comfort and a home-like feeling. She got into different rooms admiring the works of art done there.
She stepped into the study room can't to see a stack of letters on the table. Elsa smiled, she knew the man was fund of not reading his letters, what she could not understand was why he still accepted these letters when he didn't want them.
She picked a letter from the rest, she could recall the business-related stuff that always came with these letters. Back then those kinds of stuff were boring to her, even if she liked reading different things. But today's mail was different, it was a court case, someone had sued her mother for murder.
Elsa couldn't believe her eyes, but her father had said her mother had gone shopping, she should have found such a statement suspicious cause her mother hated shopping that she just ask them to do the shopping in their mansion.
Did her mum really kill someone? But she's not a killer to hurt someone, she needed an explanation, her father has to explain to her what this letter was about. She was not a baby for them to hide this stuff from. She sauntered out of the study room and headed back to the lounge where she last saw her father, only to see the one person that makes her heart skip.
As if he felt her presence, he met her gaze. Liam raised a brow, his little wife was the last person he wanted to see here today. After dealing with his family members, Antonio had asked him to come here for an important meeting that was yet to be said. He noticed the grave look on his little wife's face which concerned him greatly.
"How could you hide such from me Dad, mum's accused of murder and you said nothing." She was hurt, she felt terrible, at why they were hiding things from her. She was a part of the family, their only child at that, she shouldn't be happy when her parents were going through a hard time.
"Baby, I didn't want you to worry, you've been through so much to be bothered by all of these. Besides this is a small case that we can just handle." "D... Did mother really kill someone?" Antonio that curious and innocent gaze, they are as curious as his wife's when she was younger. That woman has been through a lot to this day.
He's tried to protect her, keep her happy, he's fought for them to have a normal peaceful life, for them to love as others, but it seems that cannot be done. The last thing Antonio wanted was to end up being like the men sitting next to him.
These men were devourers, Liam could get Beaufort sisters to keep calm forever but that was not what Antonio wanted. He wanted to go through the normal peaceful way to remove any sort of grudges in the future against his family. The last thing he wanted was anyone attacking them in the future.
"She did, but you don't have to worry everything will be fine, why not trust your father." Elsa couldn't help but sob in his arms. Antonio hugged his daughter, this is exactly what he's been avoiding, he didn't want her to worry about anything. She should always live happily, she's gone through a lot for a child her age.
He met Liam's gaze and the man understood his stare, Antonio has entrusted his daughter into the man's hands. He knew Elsa staying with him will only endanger her life the more and that's the last thing he wanted. Beaufort's sisters are not only fighting them through court but he's noticed some unusual movement around the estate lately. Thank goodness he doubled the security.
"We have to leave now Love, let your father handle things as he has said." Liam rose to his feet as he took his little wife away.
While in the car, "Did Dad ask for your assistance?" She suddenly asks after her continuous sobbing. At this point Liam wished she never went to that mansion, he should have invited her parents over to their mansion to avoid this. "No." Came his short reply.
Hearing Liam was not going to be of any assistance to her parents broke her heart, even more, those people play dirty and are very dangerous, her parents are honest people, and would let anyone poke them in the eye.
He was heartbroken seeing her this way, he knew he had to do something to end this misery once and for all. This will be the last time anyone would mess with her family. After these, Antonio's will be revealed to everyone again, so the man can live his normal life.
