~*~*~*

Adriana's POV:

I, once again am a prisoner for Noah Massarotti

I actually never thought I'd ever talk to him again... The plan was so simple

I was supposed to be marrying Luca tonight, we were going to finish what we plotted against Noah and then we were going to travel somewhere so far from everyone and focus on ourselves and our relationship

Noah just had to ruin everything for me, all what I want. AGAIN.

"I don't know what you think you're gaining from kidnapping me and keeping me here, but I swear Noah I will make you regret this, and everything el-" I was saying but before I could utter the next word completely Noah stuffed a cloth in my mouth, by that blocking my next screams of frustration

THAT SON OF A PUTANA

"Consider I just did you a huge favour because in a few minutes you will be regretting everything mi carina" he said as he placed a stool in front of me, turning it oppositely and sat on it, his eyes met mine and he smirked, I cringed

"You are wondering why I brought you here, and I'm sure the thought of me wanting to kill you have crossed your mind at some point, but it's the total opposite linda. I just saved your life, you've been manipulated by your dear mother and your supposedly husband to be, and you were so naive and blinded by your desire to avenge on me that you couldn't realize the truth" he spoke with so much sarcasm and cockiness

That f*cker?!!!

I can't believe he has the balls to keep lying and he thinks I'm going to believe him. Haaah.

I just glared at him but very deep inside something was telling me he was telling the truth and that something very fishy was going on, around my back

I can't trust Noah though

I need proof

"Knowing you, you're now very interested in knowing what the hell I'm talking about, and you need proof that the two most significant people in your life, well currently, have manipulated, used and deceived you" he continued with the same tone

Is he reading my mind, wtf

I watched as his hand neared me and he removed my gag; I spat.

"Oh wow, you have some serious psychic powers Noah, you should team up with a tv channel and create your own show, that's so Noah! Suits you very well don't you think?"

"Seems like a great idea, you could be my co-star, the naive girl with serious psychological issues,trust issues, and mommy issues who needs help figuring out her own destiny because she's too blocked my her mixed feelings to differ between what's right and what's wrong. Pretty spot on, no?" He bit back, hard.

Ouch. That was accurate

"Can you two stop bickering like young highschool lovers? And get down to real sh*t before it's too late" Max hissed from behind and Noah sent him a death glare

"Sorry boss, but you should know better" he sighed

I heard fast footsteps thumping and then the door flew open with Andres barging in

My eyes instantly met the floor, after our last encounter and when I kicked his ass, well more specifically his precious gems, I felt embarrassed and ashamed to look at him

He was always the nicest to me and all I kept doing was tryna ruin his future

"Noah, he's here and he got everything you asked for, also we searched him up, all good. Want us to bring him here now?" Andres asked and Noah jumped up from his seat, he looked down on me and smirked then looked back at Andres "Bring him" he ordered sternly and I watched as Andres ran back out

Bring who?

Who is here?

Why did he smirk at me?

Oh shit

I'm doing it again, overthinking, over worrying

"Oh you've got nothing to be worried about bebe, well except for your mental health" he said so smoothly as if he didn't just warn me that my mental health is in stake

What mental health, its been dead for months

"Aw Noah, always so considerate!" I squealed in fake excitement & gratitude he just rolled his eyes

"Ok but listen, I need to get out of this dress because it's so uncomfortable and I do not want to ruin it even more, also this scene of you keeping me here while we wait for someone mysterious while I'm in my wedding dress is too dramatical for me, feels like I'm the star of a Spanish soap opera or like-"

"shut up" he interrupted, his tone changed dramatically and he was so serious & scary right now

Bipolar

I can only wonder what hell is about to break loose

I can't believe I still communicated with this f*cktard, what is wrong with me

I could hear distant voices that got louder and I swear I recognized both of the voices, one is andres' but I couldn't tell who exactly was this other man with him

"Ah, finally" I heard Noah whisper to himself frustratingly so my head snapped to the door and that's when my jaw hit the actual core of the earth and confusion clouded

What the ?????

How does he know him?????

Why? What???

Omg?

"Ernesto, let's make this quick" Noah said but my eyes were still focused on the man standing at the door

Noah neared him my eyes went from Noah to Ernesto and nothing was making sense to me

How does Noah know my mom's who knows number what boyfriend?

Suddenly I remembered what mom said about him working against her with Noah and how he overtook her company

The world's biggest d*ckheads were in one room right now, under the same roof, and with me, the person they harmed the most, their victim.

"Oh wow hahah! Adriana Lockwood! Glad you're still alive kid" Ernesto exclaimed and started walking towards me

"Fuck off, sadly I can't say the same about you & im not a fucking kid, it is my wedding night"

"it was your wedding night" Noah corrected me and I was a ticking bomb ready to explode at any moment

I felt nothing but rage, pure rage & disgust.

"What the fuck is he doing here Noah, what do you want to proof? My mom right? That you both worked together? Well congrats you just did" I said and next thing I know both men started laughing

SERIOUSLY?!

"Fuck you I'm not your little clown I'm not humouring you both so stop fucking LAUGHING, I hope you choke!" ughhhhh I can't believe this

Noah's fit of laughter instantly died and his expression turned cold again and he turned to Ernesto who too stopped laughing, he took him aside and they started talking in low voices

I couldn't comprehend a word they were uttering

They stopped talking and looked at me simultaneously, then they grabbed their stools and a small wooden table and sat in front of me placing the table between us and they sat across of me

"Ok Adriana, I'm not going to stall anymore and will get straight into matters. To sum everything up in 4 words: You have been played. Ernesto & I will explain everything to you, and I brought all the proof you want, it's in that bag over there" he pointed towards a guard that was holding a suitcase

"And just to be clear, the only reason I'm telling you is because Luca fucked with me, completely fooled you and was planning against me by using you. So was your dear mother. And it's only fair if you know the truth and open your damn eyes and think rationally. They've corrupted you my dear. I will talk and you will listen, don't try to interrupt me."

"Aight, so you know I was the one behind the destruction of my good Ol' father's ship, that night rosalinda teamed up with me, she knew all about my plan and she was willing to help me because she needed money, your company wasn't doing so well. Like any normal person I told her I needed a good deal, a bargain. Why would I let her help me when I didn't need her help & then give her money after. I take over everything my dad owned? Your mother was so desperate that she offered you. Then I met you and decided it was a good deal, you would do me good, that's the only reason you survived, I sent max & Andres after you when the ship sank and they left you on one of my islands so you wouldn't figure anything out. Your mother left you for me, for a price. She sold you. She was so desperate to get you out of her house that she used you & sold you" he stopped to take a breath then continued "Ernesto was with us when your mother & I were negotiating, I even have our entire conversation recorded" he continued then reached out to the suitcase and pulled out a small device and placed it on the table with headphones

"That's true, I was there, your mother even sold her company to Noah then Noah and I started working together and I took over it and left your mother because her actions got worse, she spent the money on plastic surgeries and herself, and she bought new cars and just spent the money on useless luxurious items, then when she was almost broke she started contacting Noah and threatening him that she would contact news stations for help to share your picture and say that you're lost, even though she arranged her own fake death & the fake will to make you give up on her, then she started playing dirty and wanted to seem like the victim, when Noah threatened her she and Luca became allies" Ernesto explained and my heart was getting heavier by the second

"Ah Luca, sí, the only reason he proposed that night is because he wanted to nail the deal with the Shepherds, Leonardo told him it would be perfect for promotion of a Lockwood & a Di Vaio got married, two of the biggest names in the business world, and If you agreed to this marriage only then the deal will be sealed, then you came over to my house, but little did you know Luca was there, in the same room & he threatened to hurt you & even tell you that your mother is still alive and accuse me of lying to you about everything, obviously back then I didn't want that even though I could prove he's wrong but for your own sanity I didn't want you to know the real truth about everything, you were already hurt about that will, truth would've ruined everything, wouldve ruined you. So if I didnt push you away and help push you into agreeing to this marriage and in return I'd know you're safe and I would get myself a business deal too, he would've told you" his tone changed and his voice got thicker, like it hurt him to talk about this

"Then... You did that horrible thing and I took care of you, I was also planning on telling you the entire truth when you came back. Luca he never visited you more than once and it was only to check if his precious key to the deal was still alive. I fought with him and warned him about turning up again or contacting you ever again, little did I know though that he would contact your snake of a mother & they worked together and plotted against me, they deceived you. Luca knew you'd want to avenge & he would manipulate you into believing that your marriage with him would actually destroy everything for me, but that's also not true" he sighed

"Now, I'm going to leave you with these" he turned to the suitcase and took out papers

"These are the contracts signed by your mom, the company contract, the one regarding you, and everything else, and you can listen to our conversation" he got up and I was speechless, I honestly couldn't muster one word.

I was shocked beyond belief, this was too much to take in.

"Guys release her and leave her here alone" Noah ordered and one of the guards complied and they released my hands

"I'll be back in half an hour" he said and then he left

Everyone left

Leaving me alone with evidence that my own mother despised my existence, that the guy I thought was my hero was the villain

That my entire life was just a lie

And that I was such a gullible person.

I took a deep breath and started shuffling through the papers

Not knowing where to start and wether this too was scam. Wether I was being deceived right now too.

I've never felt lowly of myself like this

Tears clouded my vision as I started reading

No f*cking way.
