He sturties nut of my office and I glance around for a window to jump through.
“How much? Her cold eyes hold mine.
“Tor what?”
To get out of my son’s life,” she snaps angrily. “What else could it mean? Do you really think you can seduce my son, get pregnant without taking him, and turn up three weeks before his wedding to the love of his life, ruin everything and get away with it? You are nothing but a manipulative hitch and
I won’t stand for it.”
My mouth falls open in shock, she did not just say that,
“Let me goess. You secured bim on his desk one night after work?”
Her eyes hold mine. Tin assuming you were wearing something sexy, maybe a suspender belt that you purposely let him see? Her smirk breaks into a sarcastic smile. “And the earth minced for you, but he wanted nothing to do with you after?”
I stare at her, shocked to silence.

I pick up a framed photo from my desk and I pass it to her. The illegitimate bastard children you speak of have names, Lucia and Dominic. They are
Her face falls as she looks at them, the resemblance to Gabriel is striking, she can’t deny it.
“They are just like their father,” I whisper. “Take a long last look at that photo, Mrs. Ferrara, because over my dead body will you ever see them again.”
The air swirls between us, a couring of evil like you’ve never felt before.
“Dent underestimate me. Seraphina,” she sneers. That could be arranged.”
“Is that a threat? I feel a line of my equilibriu return. “Please, threaten
