Mafia King’s Innocent Bride

SOPHIE’S POV

Then the lights suddenly turned off. Everyone started panicking.

‘What happened? Where’s everyone?!’

All the people around us started yelling and wondering why it happened.

Then I heard Vincent spoke again.

“Let’s go, Sophie.”

“H-Huh? Where to?”

“Somewhere far from here.”

“What? But—

I just felt him grabbed my hand and we started running away to the direction that I don’t even know where.

“Vincent, where are we going?” I asked him.

Then the lights went on again and that’s when I realized that we were already outside the venue. A helicopter was in front of us and also Vincent’s men.

I looked at Vincent who was still holding my hand.

“What is the meaning of this, Vincent?”

“Please, go with me, Vincent.”

“But Vincent…”

He let go of my hand but he was still looking at me. “Will you with me?”

“Sophie!”

All of a sudden, I saw Lance together with Miss Felestine and Sabrina.

“Sophie, don’t go with him! Don’t go with that man!” Lance kept on yelling.

I didn’t know what to do. I kept on looking alternatively at Vincent and at Lance. They were both looking at me.

“Honey, come here. Don’t go with that mafia boss…” Even Miss Felestine said.

They were all asking me not to go with Vincent.

But I guess I’m really just a fool because I keep on choosing things and people that would only hurt me in the end.

“I’m sorry, Lance. I’m sorry, mommy…” I whispered before I finally turned my back at them and reached for Voltaire’s hand.Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

In the end, the heart will choose what it wants.

And in the end, I am still willing to take everything risk, for Voltaire. Because the man who can hurt you the most, is also the only man who can mend your broken heart.

Lance’s POV

The moment that Sophie turned her back at us and held Vincent’s hand, that’s when I knew that I finally had to let go of her.

After all the things that happened, after all this time, it’s still Vincent. Vincent is still the one that she loves.

“Go and follow them! We can’t let that mafia boss take my daughter!” Miss Felestine yelled to her men.

“There’s no need for you to do that anymore, ma’am. She’s safe with him, Vincent loves Sophie so much. He wont hurt her.”

“Lance, how sure are you?! That man is a mafia boss! She might hurt my daughter!”

“Vincent is my younger brother.”

“W-What?”

I nodded. “I’m sorry, but can you excuse me, please…”

I went back inside and told the audience to just continue what they were doing. Good thing the event organizers were also quick to fix the problem.

I just sat on a corner while drinking some whiskey.

“I don’t think whiskey can make someone drunk.”

Then I saw Sabrina standing in front of me.

She sat next to me and started drinking some whiskey too. “Sophie keeps on telling me how much she hates Vincent but look at her, she still chose that man over you. Don’t you feel mad about it? Doesn’t it make you upset?”

“Of course, it does. I want to follow them and take Sophie away from Vincent. I want to tell her to just fall in love with me. I want to tell her that she’s so idiotic to choose my younger brother over me, but of course, I wouldn’t do that. I wouldn’t do that not because I am a coward, but because that that won’t change the fact that Vincent is still the one that she loves.”
