THE SINFUL BONDAGE OF MAFIA PRINCESS
038. PAST TIMES

Ruella looks so angry at both guards that she releases a slap into Fazio's face.

"I'm sorry, madam." Said Fazio who understood his mistress. "But you're okay, right?"

"What if they see me? What if they shoot me, too?" Ruella asked furiously.

His anger made him feel a pain in the head until the woman held his head. Soon he removed his anger so that his head would not hurt again. Then walk up to Ciro to find out what he wants to know about Hugo.

"Have you managed to do it?" Ruella asked with a sharp look at Ciro.

"Yes, I managed to shoot him but when I was about to shoot him again, Hugo's men came first." Answer Ciro.

"What does that mean?" Ruella looked annoyed at Ciro's reply. "Why did you have to shoot him twice?"

"My first shot missed his shoulder, so he didn't die right away." Ciro.

"What did you say?!" Ruella screamed until her head felt throbbing from the pain.

"I'm sorry, ma'am. I failed to do it." Ciro looks scared because of Ruella's anger.

Ruella held her breath to deal with her cringe which instantly made her head ache even more. Then he took out two envelopes with money and gave it to Ciro and the woman who was there.

"You two get out of Italy. Don't let them catch you. Your faces are already known to them, if they find you two... Before you speak, I'll make sure I kill you myself." Ruella Exclamation.

Savero snorted at Ruella's words threatening the two men. He was very inexhaustible, with ease the woman said about the murder with his voice. But it's no wonder, however the background of Ruella who is the daughter of a mafia leader must have been used to it. Even the woman had also killed her best friend—Matteo.

"You both understand, right?" Ruella's gaze was extremely sharp from trying to threaten.

The two people who received the money Ruella gave nodded their heads quickly.

"Alright, I don't want to see you two again in this country." Ruella.

After that Ruella turned to look at Savero who was just silently watching her. He stepped in to leave the place. The pain in his head grew more and more from thinking about his plan that failed to kill Hugo—the man who had once stained himself first.

When he stepped past Savero, his gaze turned dark and his surroundings were like swirling so that it made him waver. Without Ruella being able to endure it, the woman lost consciousness.

Lucky Savero who since Ruella turned to look at her noticed the change in the woman's face that looked pale, she immediately grabbed onto Ruella's fallen body before the woman fell.

"Rue, are you okay?" Savero asked trying to shake the body of Ruella who was in his arms. "You hear me?"

Ruella tried to open her eyes and look at Savero even though her head still felt spinning at this moment.

"Sav..." Answer Ruella

"Calm down, I'll take you to the hospital." Savero.

"Ja—don't... Just take me home and don't tell Don." Ruella cried with her eyes closed.

Savero took Ruella back home and put her to bed in the woman's room. Paola who saw the presence of the two of them looked worried.

"Mrs, how's madam doing?" Tanya Paola looked worried looking at Ruella who looked so weak from the way she looked. "Sir, why don't we take him to the hospital? What if something happens to her pregnancy?"

Savero did not answer Paola's words filled with panic. He had checked on Ruella and nothing serious was feared by Paola.

"Big master... Did you tell him? The great lord must come home soon to see the state of the madam now." Paola.

"No need. He's just exhausted. Nothing serious happened." Finally Savero answered the words of the butler in his house. "Tonight accompany her here, Paola. Don't leave Rue alone."

"Good sir." Answer Paola.

"Rest, don't go anywhere else. Your content is strong but your body condition is not." Savero spoke to Ruella.

After saying that, the man walked out from there.

When the morning is not yet approaching, Savero who can not fall asleep woke up from his sleep position. He looked at his phone to see the time. It's only four in the morning.

Since last night he could not close his eyes. Many things filled his mind at this moment, all of them were about Ruella. After learning of the woman's past being victimized by the prosecution*saan, Savero completely changes his view on Ruella.

He understood why Ruella wanted so badly to kill the man who had raped her first. And seeing his current condition made Savero worry about him. Her pregnant state must have made her more tormented.

Soon Savero got out of bed and put on his t-shirt, then walked out of the room. He intends to see Ruella's current condition.

When Ruella opened the door, the room was bright but she did not see Paola there. He immediately stepped into the room.

"Would you like to come here?"

Ruella's voice made Savero shocked. The woman looked at Savero who was walking closer to her and stood looking at him.

Savero didn't think that the woman wasn't asleep at the moment. For a moment he noticed Ruella's face that looked swollen from crying. He understood, no matter how strong a woman may be if faced with a bitter past will keep her crying. Savero.

"Where is Paola? Why isn't he there?" Savero asked with a casual look at Ruella, not wanting to show that he knew about the woman who had just cried.

"I told him to go back to his room." Ruella replied showing her usual attitude towards Savero. "I'm fine because you don't have to come here either."

Savero did not immediately respond to Ruella's words. Now there was something he wanted to ask the woman. Something that at first made her hate on Ruella.

"What's wrong? Out now. I want to go back to sleep—"

"Matteo, do you know who he is?" Savero's question cut through Ruella's words.

Ruella seemed to think and bite her lower lip. His gaze looked at Savero without blinking.

"Isn't he your best friend? Flavian Lover?" Ruella answered. "What's wrong? Why are you asking me?"

"Don't it feel weird if you don't remember who you hit three years ago? Or from the beginning you just pretended you didn't know?" Savero asked with a full glance.
