Revenge After Divorce by Black Rose

Chapter 0076 ELODIE My hands shook at my sides as I continued to watch him. He has grown so much that he had grey hair on his head and beard. But still had the sscary eyes I always avoided looking into. The last tI saw him, he had a gun to my head. His hand trembling with anger, his eyes looked like those of a predator watching as his prey was being taken away.

Anger coated those features, and I knew he wanted blood. Not just any blood but mine. I never understood that, I thought he loved me, that he would do anything to protect the. but on that day, gone was the protective brother I once knew and was replaced with a monster who wanteddead.

A smile appeared on his face and even that got my blood running cold. He opened his arms, and I regretted not bringing a weapon. I thought I would just scare Faren into tellingwho she was working with. Never did I think I would run into him. "CEllie, give your big brother a bug, it's been a while, little sis." Ellie, that was the nicknhe gave me. "My little Elodie. Your big brother will always be there to save the day, no matter what situation you find yourself in. Just know that your big brother is not far away. That he will always arrive just in tto save you. My little Ellie" he used to say that to me. when I had messed up a mission and had to call him to helpfix it before father found out.

He would crunning, he had my back, and I had his. We were a team, at least I thought we were, until that day. "Oh well. I thought you missedas much as I missed you" he studied me, fear paralyzedas I wished he could stop looking at me. I wanted to turn around and run away but fear gotstuck in one place with my feet feeling like they weighed a ton.

"Your look today remindsof the good old days, God! We had sof the best of times together. Do you remember Ellie?" he looked like the brother I once knew, spoke like him as well. But I would never forget the monster I saw that day, I thought I would die by his hand.

"Okay, since you don't want to talk tothen, I will leave Maybe we will see each other again when I am in New Village." He walked past me, and I didn't know where I got the courage from, but I found myself talking. "What do you want with my family?" I watched as those deadly eyes of his turn cold.

He then shook his head as if trying to control his anger. "Let's not talk about that. let's talk about us, how is life with the rich boy, has he been treating you well?" I tensed; I didn't want him talking about my family like he knew them. I wanted him to tellwhy he was after them "I am sure you know everything aboutand my family Luke. Now tell me, why are you after them, did father order it, the council?" the council, ruthless old bastards from each mafia family. They made the rules and detected how we lived our lives. The order to killdidn't cfrom them according to my uncle.

It cfrom my father, but I knew they would have given the sorder. "Don't ask about things you don't want answers to Elodie." He calledby my full name, he was getting angry, something is wrong, something was happening back home, within the mafia but what.

"I have two children now, a daughter and a son. My son is younger than Nick by five years and my daughter..." he looked sad when he spoke of his daughter. Also, I never heard anything about him having a daughter. His wife, Emily had a son. "My daughter was born first, and she is two years younger than Nick. beautiful that one." So, the way he spoke toldthat his daughter was alive, but it sounded like they were estranged.

"I would like to meet them one day and maybe you can meet Nick." He gaveand evil smirk that send cold chills down my spine. "I have already met Nick, in fact, we have been working together for the past five years." My insides grew cold, worked together for five years, that was when Nick opened that mall in Summer Strand. Oh Lord. When he saw the horror in my face he laughed. “You didn't think that anyone could cto Summer +25 BONUS Chapter 0076 Strand, our territory and build a mall without us having a stake in it? Con sis, you know us better than that and I must say. Your son has a neck for business and has made us a lot of money." Oh Nick, child am sorry I failed. I should have kept an eye on you and who you went into business with. I thought they leftalone and forgot aboutsince they bannedfrom my hand hometown. Nothing had happened over the years, and I relaxed and let my guard down.

"Don't worry sis, I will take good care of your son, but..." that cold look in his eyes returned and a shiver ran down my spine. "But what, what does he have to do to get out of the deal?" I knew it was impossible, but I had to try.

"Now you know we don't work that way. Not unless your son dies." I knew that but he didn't. Nick didn't ve know he was doing business with the mafla. I should have told him about my family a long tago and maybe. I could have prevented this.

"Ohh, don't look sad now. I am just getting to know my nephew." Somehow, I didn't believe that was all he was doing "She"Xpointed at Faren who shook in fear when my brother looked at her. "She said you ordered her to cause Olivia's accident. Why would you do that? Olivia did nothing to you." he nodded.

"You are right, she did nothing to me. that was to show that son of yours that my power was akmore than he can imagine. To show him that I can get to his son and even his wife. But that was not the lesson." "Then what was the lesson?" a devilish smirk appeared on his face. "That he should not mess with what is mine and there be no consequences." +25 BONUS Chapter 0077
