Chapter 86 A missing idol Alexandra listened towith interest when I showed her what I bought. It really was like when two friends get together after shopping- +109 Bonu 07:03 Matten woke up from his afternoon nap shortly, and we all went out to the garden to play. He was a lively little boy. When I played with him, I could forget all of my problems. We had a great toutside. Matteo began crying when Hosa announced dinner, but his tears vanished once he saw the tasty food From the next day, the torture started. I woke up really early, and I went to the sports centre. I knew that from then this place would be my second home.
I spent a week getting back into the routine. My new coach organised my schedule. When I saw I felt it wouldn't be easy. Actually, their plan was harder than the one I got from my old team, but there wasn't anything else I wanted more. Maybe one. Maybe for him I would have left the ice as well, but T kept telling myself that I shouldn't have thought about this.
My days passed quickly. I felt exhausted every single day, and I couldn't wait to get into bed each evening, to open my eyes to my alarm early in the morning to start everything over again. Riccardo and Alexandra worried about me, but I tried to make them understand what they saw in the videos was only the smallest piece of the art. I told them how many times I got through this, and I made them understand that was my normal life since I was four.
It seemed like they understood me, however Riccardo mentioned he hoped I don't want to continue this lifestyle forever. That madelaugh. I explained that a figure skater is qualified as old at a young age. So mostly they end up as a trainer in a coach, guiding and training a new young talent, *Then you should start that after you get the gold medal in the Olympic games, Alice." Riccardo said with seriousness in his voice. I smiled at him.
"I'm nearly nineteen, maybe a few more competitions to come, then I think we all have to know where to finish our journey without ruining our glory." "Well said. And I like that." Riccardo nodded, still seriously, I shook my head with a smile.
Seth "Dad, I want to call her." Ava beggedwhile she shook my hand that she was holding. We sat outside in the garden. I needed to be out nearly all night, and I only longed for a calm, deep, and long sleep "Ava, we can't reach her. I told you a hundred times." "Then I want to ask Gideon, She is his wife, so he must be in contact with her." "Ava, we can't do that, and please letrest a bit more." "But... How could I continue skating without her?" "Ava, you h a, you have your trainers, they are for teaching you skating" "But they are not the same. They are nameless. Alice is the best. You saw her videos, and you saw how she jumps the Axel and her quads, I can't be an ice princess without her." And here we go, I thought. Her voice trailed off, and the first tears appeared in her eyes. I hated to see her like this. My only little daughter, my little princess, got hurt. And I couldn't do anything. I couldn't calm her down. I couldn't tell her it would be better. What I wanted to protect her from just happened. And I couldn't do anything. I opened my arms, and my beautiful walked into my embrace and cried. I held her tightly, and I poured kisses on her face.
I hated to see her like that.
Leah looked atsadly. I knew she felt the same. She was with her all day, I didn't know how she could bear it. Ava wanted to skate because she loved Alice and was inspired after seeing her skate. That was one way for her to get close to her. I still didn't know if she seriously wanted to beca figure skater, but I thought she was still too young to decide. I hoped she would forget this slowly, just as fast as she'd forget about Alice's existence.
About Alice, we still knew nothing. They took her to the D'angeli house for sure, but we didn't know if she was still there. They said she is fine, but we had to be realistic. In my opinion, they lied. Riccardo wanted to take her as a revenge for something that my stupid brother never did. The best case, which was maybe the worst case for Alice, she has been sold to be a slave or a prostitute, and Riccardo could hide her easily from the market, avoiding us to buy her back. The better case was they killed her instantly, but they didn't want the conflict, so they tried to make us believe she was fine.

He was still mad. Ve knew he tried to go to the D'angeli house often, mostly at night, drunk, but they always said the same.
06:51 I honestly was afraid that one day Riccardo would have enough, and he'd shoot a bullet in his head. It would have meant a war, but maybe he wanted that as well. Everyone in the family wanted to help Gideon, but if I wanted to be honest with myself, I would act the sway as Gideon, if that would be aboutand Leah.
He couldn't stop blaming himself. 1 didn't want to hurt him more, but he should have protected the one who he loved a way better indeed.
While 1 tried to calm Ava, my phone was vibrating. I looked at the sky in disbelief when I saw who it was. That was my dad, and I knew if he wanted to talk to me, that means I could forget about getting back to bed.
"Dad." "Seth, are you at home?" "Yes. Why?" "I got snews from the D'angelis." +10% An Ice Queen for sale Chapter 87 Interrogation Bonus 06:43 That madecourageous. I moved Ava from my lap, caressing her head, just to make sure she wouldn't hear anything from the conversa.......
"Listening" "One of their staff just left them. She was a housekeeper. I found out where she lives. I think we should visit her." *Dad, I don't think they just let their ex-staff tell us about what happened in the D'angels house." "Of course not, but haven't we got sways to make someone talk?" "You want to scare an innocent woman?" "If there isn't another way." I sighed, then I stood up to walk farther from my family.
*Dad, do you seriously think that we could find her? A long thas gone, and if I want to be honest, even if she is alive, they probably took her out of the states a long tago." "Seth, she is our family member. She is Gideon's other half. We can't stop until we find her alive or dead." I sighed.
"Yeah. I think you are right." "Get yourself ready and chere. Gideon is coming here as well today, but I don't want you to tell him about this." "No, I won't" Obviously, he wouldn't want to harm that woman, but if she wouldn't want to cooperate, then probably Gideon would lose his mind. I thought. After he hung up, I went back back to my loved ones. Ava laid in Leah's arms, and she looked atwith he her teary eyes.
"Get yourself ready princess, we are going see grandad " She smiled unhappily, and she got free from her mother's embrace.
"Mummy, would you helpdress up? "Yes darling, just go to your room. I'll follow you in in a minute." She nodded, and she strolled back into the house. Leah looked atworriedly.
"What's happened, Seth?" 1 sighed.
"Dad found an ex-housekeeper of the D'angeli house. She left her job when they took Alice. He wants to make her speak.
Leah sighed. Apparently, she didn't like what I said.
"Are you going to hurt her?" I smiled sadly "No, of course not." "Then what is on your mind?-s She ctoand held my waist. I pulled her closer.

She was next tofor a long time, and I have never lied to her, but she remained naive s06:3 "Yeah, you may be right. Let's hope everything will be fine." I smiled at her, and she smiled back at me.
"When do you want to leave?" She asked.
"As soon as possible." "Okay." She nodded, and after caressing my face, she went back into the house. I took a deep breath, I stood up, and followed her shortly.
We were all quiet on the way. I hated to see my little family like that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmm Usually we laughed a lot during a route, mostly Ava entertained us, but now she just sat there quietly, looking out of the window.
When we arrived, I helped them get out of the car, and we walked inside together. Mum hugged us all, and told Ava to go into the living room, as she had a surprise for her. She held Leah's hand and walked with her into the living room after she toldthat Dad was waiting for me. I frowned.
"Where is Gideon?" "Tasked Sloane to make him delay, so so you can get I things done with your father." I nodded.
I ran upstairs, then I knocked at his working room door. He shouted to cin, so I entered. He stood up, then he searched for his car keys in his pocket.
"Are we in such a hurry? "Yes. I don't know how long Sloane can keep him away." I nodded again. I watched him to search his keys in vain, getting nervous.
"We can go with mine." I said, and he looked atsuddenly.
"Okay." He said.
When I turned on the engine, he looked at me.
"I put her address in here." He put his phone on my dashboard and started the GPS
The area was nice and tidy, nothing dodgy. We quickly found the right house. I hoped she'd be alone, I rang woman at her middle age opened the door. Her eyes widened in fear when she saw us with our guns, but I quickly grabbed her and covered her mouth the ball bell, and the door opened shortly. A "Calm down and don't shout, then you won't get harmed." The woman heaved for air, and I felt her body shaking out of fear, but she nodded.
"Are you allone in the house?" I asked.
She quickly modded again.
I pushed her to move in the front, and we found the living room quickly. I pushed her to sit down on the sofa. My dad sat down opposite her, and I stood next to her.
