Chapter 140 I planned it all
VICTORIA'S POV...
'It was never your fantasy.' This one line has become a part of my life these days. It's been two days
after that night and it all felt like a dream. A very real one.
Two days ago and I was introduced to a word that I never imagined even in my dreams that it existed.
Sage does not remember anything. I don't know why, but I do. Every detail of it.
That night, I realised one thing too. The time never changed! When we entered that wizardry world,
passing the stone gate, it was ten p.m. exactly. We stayed there for at least fifteen minutes but when
we returned and in the car, it was 10.05 p.m.!
If I think that way then the time had stopped when we were in the wizardry world! It's so illogical!
Guess this is why this quote formed, when there is magic, there will be no logic...
When I think of this, I feel so heavy in my head and this time also nothing exceptional. It feels weird but
it's not! Way too confusing.
Now I know, why should the human world and their world not collide. Now I understand why Grandma
Nina broke her ties with her family. For a human, it's too difficult to survive in that world.
Our worlds should be parted from each other...
"huw." A sudden jumbled sound broke my trance as I looked down at my son who is now staring at me
with his big bluish-green eyes and his small lips parted in an 'o' shape.
Is he trying to gain my attention? I watched him and suddenly noticed his small lips curved a little... Oh!
He... He smiled! He smiled at me!
This is the first time! Oh God! I couldn’t help but smile while my eyes started turning blurry. As if he
understood the meaning behind my tears and his lips stretched more, making me chocked on my tears.
My son smiled at me! For the first time in these days! Fuck! I need to tell this to Aless!
Immediately, I picked him up and get down from the bed. Just as I was about to walk out of the room,
Maria hastily came to my door with a worried face.
I raised my brow at her. "What happened?"
"Your aunt-in-law came." She mumbled.
"Aunt-in-law?" I frowned. "You mean, Giana?"
Maria nodded. "Yeah, she is looking for you and Aless. Aless is downstairs, you should go there. She
seems in trouble and kept crying."
I blinked in a daze. Aunt Giana is here? Troubled? Crying? And then suddenly one thing hit me hard,
Aless has given his shares to Dominic and in the allocation of properties, Aless got the old Devonte
mansion, where Aunt Giana and her daughter live. If Aless has given his properties to Dominic, does
that mean Dominic kicked them out of the home?
I sighed, giving Leo to Maria, I went downstairs.
It's already messy there. Both Mama, Papa and Aless are sitting on the sofa and Aunt Giana is sitting
on the other one, sobbing uncontrollably.
The proud and arrogant woman is seeming helpless now. Is she here to complain against Dominic?
Then I am out of it and also pulling Aless out of it. I don't want to involve any matter with Dominic nor
do I want Aless to be involved.
Moreover, she has her husband's house, right? Why she didn't go there?
With thoughts in mind, I went close to them. "What happened?" I asked, not finding any other words to
say.
Everyone turned to me, including Aunt Giana.
"Victoria... You came." She said between sobs.
I turned to Aless and he stood up, coming close to me. "Aunt Giana wants to talk to us."
I nodded and Aless brought me to take a seat beside him, holding my hand.
"What happened, Aunt Giana?" I asked, suddenly feeling chilled.
She looked up. Her eyes were puffy red and tired. It seemed she cried for a long time and those dark
circles are the proof of sleepless nights and worries.
Her beautiful face is haggard and gives away her real age.
A person wouldn't be this much broken to be kicked out of their home when she has other
arrangements, right? Is it not about home?
She looked at us, still sobbing.
"Aunt Giana, please tell us, what happened?" Aless asked, still holding my hand.
"Li... Lisa is (sobbed) Missing..." She said with difficulty.
"What!?" I gasped "What are you talking about!?" Aless was also stunned. Even Mama and Papa too.
"Since when?!"
"For last two days... (sobbed)"
"And you are telling us now!? Did you complain to the police!?" Mama asked.
She shook her head. "No... It won't help. I can't go to police... I know who did it..." She said between Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
her sobs.
"You know? Who it is?" Aless Asked.
"Do... Dominic. (sobbed) He did this... He... He kidnapped my daughter."
"But why would he do that?!" Aless yelled at this point. "Have you gone mad!? He has everything now!"
"I know..." She cried hard this time. "I know he did. He wants to take revenge for Victoria!"
"What!?" I was stunned. Well, we all are. "Aunt Giana, so you even hear yourself? What are you talking
about!?" I am getting annoyed now.
"I know what I am saying! He did it! Because of you! I..." She once again broke down in crying.
"Because of one mistake I did in the past and now that came on me." Her tone suddenly turned slower
as if she is well aware of the reason but helpless and could do nothing.
"What mistake?" Alessandro sat straight and his tone alerted.
"A mistake... No, A crime I did. To you, to Victoria..." She shook her head helplessly. "Now, this is
happening to me..."
"Don't waste a fucking time and tell me what did you do!?" Aless snapped this time as she once looked
up at us and then her eyes lowered. she covered her mouth, seems like she doesn't want to say but
she is forced to do it.
"I... Four years ago, Victoria's miscarriage wasn't an accident... It was me who planned it all ..."
