Chapter 217 PRICE TO PAY 2
The news got to the Benzoyls about the tragic demise of William's Benzoyl, Faith hasn't stopped crying. He had to die when Bianca just found out about the truth, he had to die when their family was upside down. If his family, friends, and relations are aware she has no child for him, it's totally over for her.
Faith mourned, aside from being her husband, Williams was a brother, a friend, a father, a mother, sister, he was her everything. She would die without him, she just can't leave him alone. "Where are you headed to Bianca, you just lost your father." Hannah addressed the girl walking down the stairs with her luggage in her hands.
She said nothing to Hannah as she stood before the woman on a couch with her fake family and relations. Bianca had a lot on her mind, all she needed was a calm space alone, maybe thinking about her life and her birth parents. She still couldn't believe Faith and Williams are not her biological parents.
They both called Florence mad for speaking the truth, Williams threatened to destroy her a couple of times cause she was saying the truth. "I'll be back to pay all I owe, for now, don't bother looking for me." She stated with an impassive face and stormed out of the room.
"What is wrong with her Faith, I know Williams spoilt his kid, but she can't keep acting this way, especially with her father dead." Hannah addressed. "I'm sorry for that, she's just so heartbroken. She'd be back to her senses in no time." Faith defended. Deep down she was hurt, she was the only one who knew the reason why Bianca's acting this way. Maybe if Williams was alive he would know how to settle this.
She's tried talking to her daughter, but that resulted in a slap and curses. For the first time in her life, Bianca threatened her, she hasn't seen the girl this furious before which baffled her.
.
The news of William Benzoyl's death was all over the city, those who benefited from him mourned, and those who knew nothing about him continued with their normal lives without care if he ever existed. Back in a country held a woman of power, a power that is just given to her in space of a day.
Her shoulders were held high, she sipped from her glass of apple juice as she watched the news, with a subtle smile on her lips. Florence was very happy about her accomplishment, at least an enemy has been eliminated. Now her daughter can breathe freely, move freely and have the life she deserves.
Williams's death didn't seem like the only thing she was excited about, it turned out Bianca has left her fake parents after her little reveal. Florence was aware cause the girl called and is on her way there with Claire. She lied to them it was a Vacation to get a lot off their minds before breaking the news fully to her daughter.
"You seem to be pleased with the news?" Harbetto stepped into the lounge after his long bath. "Yes, thank you." "I told you I would do anything for you, all I ask is you, your love, your all."
"Can you kill Mr. Black? Only then can you gain my love and all."
.
While Lou and Elsa arranged dinner due to the lack of maids in the mansion, Liam and Antonio talked about other important business-related stuff. It's only right for Antonio to reveal to the world he's not dead and was never dead. Both men had a good talk before sauntering to the dining room for dinner.
"You should eat more Liam, yours was specially prepared by your wife." Lou chimed in. Elsa couldn't help but blush at her mother's words, especially with the way Liam stared at her. His eyes yawned lust, those eyes that made her skin burn, the same that made her heart skin rendering her 18 years of morality useless.
The eyes that turn her wild and crazy, the kind that does foreign things to her body. He was doing it again, Liam has not to stop staring at her, he didn't look like he would stop anytime soon. He was trying to understand what his heart was doing to him, it was beating loud for this little woman again.
No, his love for her was not the sex love, he loved her genuinely, more than he does for himself. Everything about her was special, the way she chocked at his stare from time to time, yet she wouldn't stop staring back at him.
"It tastes awful, just like her other meals," Liam said calmly adding more lemon to his meal, he loved them without spice but he loved lemon juice in his food. She got the taste right, but it's not cool if he doesn't tease her a little. "I did it the same way you did the last time." She said calmly chewing the food in her mouth.
Liam raised a brow, 'like he did the last time, yet she couldn't come up with a simple breakfast this morning. Was she just pretending? Antonio and Lou understood what was going on and decided to keep mute, this must be their first fight as a couple. If there was a camera right now, she would have recorded everything they were doing.
Moments like this only happen once in a lifetime, they felt like everyone's first time having sex, those are the moments and memories that cannot be changed. That innocence is incomparable, unretainable. But she knew not to interfere in their issues and problems, it's always fun watching from afar. Her baby's stubbornness is next to no one's, Liam's just the perfect match for her.
.
"What are you talking about sweetheart, you must be joking right?" This was the most insane thing Harbetto has heard about. What does she think he is? God? Even God will not accept that ruthless man in the underworlds. Most times they felt like, he was sent down to earth to punish the world.
People like this tend to exist after decades, and he came in their time. "He's an enemy Betto, he locked me up in the slave establishment a few months back and didn't plan on getting me out till after his attempted murder which I wish I accomplished." She broke in. She didn't know if Harbetto will hate her after now, and she cared less about it. This was the perfect opportunity to know if he truly loves her.
She could already see the deep frown on his face, Florence and slave establishment was not something that went along. She's his, his property, just as he would never touch Liam's property. That little boy.
He gritted his teeth at the thought of what his wife to be must have gone through in the hands of those slave men. "D... Did they do anything to you?"
"I was turned into a sex toy for random men Betto, Mr. Black disregarded me, my personality. I want him dead Betto, his existence sickens me." She concluded. Betto is the man Florence has been searching for for the longest time. She's finally found the perfect person who could blindly be an instrument for revenge.
She's finally done with Williams next Is Liam and then his foolish wife Elsa. She was sure Lou's death would be as easy as before if not easier, cause that woman is the most fragile being she's come across. "You could align with others if Liam's too tough for you." She suggested but was mocking him.
"You don't have to worry, I can handle that boy myself." He said through gritted teeth. For the first time in years, Florence saw a man in Harbetto.
.
Everyone got to their rooms after dinner to freshen up and rest, they each had the rest of the next day to bond well with each other. Liam had no issues with his in law's living with them, infact they were welcomed to stay as long as they pleased.
"You remembered my recipes for my type of stake how adorable." He stood before the floor-to-ceiling mirror as he took off his black shirt. Elsa gulped, she knew he would use his words against her, but as he didn't say a thing on the table anymore, she thought he had forgotten. Elsa only took off her clothes quickly putting on her robe and was ready to step into the bathroom, when a strong arm picked her up.
She wimped a little, "Liam please put me down." "Of cause, I'll put you down, you still have punishments to do." He said stepping into the bathroom. On getting there, Liam placed her feet on the floor and got into the tub. "How can I do punishments when it's bedtime?"
"Scrub me, that's your punishment." Her lips were slightly parted as she stared at him in disbelief. Elsa blinked a couple of times to be sure she was not dreaming, touching his body? How can she handle that? She gets paralyzed by his gape not thinking of touching his body.
I've got injuries on my fingers." She showed them to him, and with a swift movement, she could already find herself in the tub with him. "You always find a way to skip my punishments and then make me do them." She could not understand what he was talking about, she only reminded him about her injured fingers, not telling him to clean her.
Liam smooched her lips with his taking off her drenched robe as he threw it on the floor. A hand moved to her half-wet hair and another on her waist pulling her closer to himself.
