The girl who followed Jane is Paris.
Emma was right she is crazy.
Crazy for him.

When I try to leave someone pulls me.
When I look who it is I see Trisha the assistant.
"whoah, whats going on?" I ask
"We need to talk it's urgent.. "Trisha says
"Okay, what is it?"I ask curious
"It's about Lorenzo" She says
Lorenzo? Is he okay?
"Whats up with him? "I ask her
"He... I have never in my life saw him like this.. He is ruined.. ",She states
"What happened?"I ask
"His father.... they took him"She cries
"pshh,"I hug her
"who are they?"I ask
"Your uncle took her before you killed him" She says.
what???? my uncle took Lorenzo's father?? No? nooo.... Thats why he is ignoring me. I destroyed his chance of getting him back. Omy gosh
I destroyed Lorenzo. I destroyed us. Before I killed my uncle he was trying to say something to me probably this.He screamed no when I killed him. Its all my fault. If he never knew me his father wouldnt be in this place.
Its all my fault. Maybe he will never find see him again and was taken somewhere to torture and slave or maybe he died. Its all my fault. I need to bring him back.

----------
I drove for hours before finally arriving at her home. When I step out of the car she opens the front door and run thought them into my hug. She cries and so do I.
"Honey I cant belive you are here again after so many years. Are you okay? I thought your mom found you already. Oh my baby I am so happy . Lets go inside my child " She smiles.
She lives in a big modern house alone. Her husband died of cancer years ago. They never had a child because Lillian cant get pregnant. She always loved me even more brcause pf that. I feel like I am her daugher for real. She takes care of me like a mother. She is the real definiton of a mother.
I dont know what I would do if she wasnt here.
"Hope, Are you sure no one followed you here? I dont wat you to die on my watch. I couldnt stand it" She cries hugging me thigthly
"Lillian" I say slowly breaking the hug
"My mother..she" I try to tell her but she interups
"psh, hope, Its okay. You are safe here. She cant hurt you around me okay? She will suffer" Lillian comforts me
"My mother" I cry
"She is ..... " silence
"dead" I say
"She is what???" Lillian asks in shock
I repeat myself.
"You ... killed her?" She asks me hugging me .
"Yes" I cry and I cry
still hugging her she says
"Hope I know its hard.. to kill your own mother.. But lets be honest she was trying to kill you for 4 years" She says and I nod in agreement.
After we talk for a while to catch up , she made me breakfast and coffee. I love her taking care of me.
"So what now? I killed my mother and uncle"I ask
"What do you mean? now?" She sruhgs and furrow ber eyebrows.
"how do I take over the family buisness..How do I become gang leader? I ask her curious
Shr seems to be in shock because I asked her that.
"Hope, I will tell you everything you need to know, but first I just want to warn you what are you getting yourself into. Gang is drug trafficking and also they are trafficing human. All you would have to do would be illegal. Gangs would try to kill you because you are the last blood of your family. Just please Hope, you need to continue your family's honor. Its your duty to become a gang leader. It will be full of danger and deaths but Hope you will be safe at least
"she says and I nod
"I know. Thank you. I really appreciate your consern. How do I become one?" I ask again
"As you already know if you want to become a gang leader you need gang's blood. Now you already have gang in your blood. So that wont be a problem for you. You also need to have a partner( husband) and the most important thing you need are those two:
1. You need to make a child with your husband who will have your gangs blood
2. You need to kill someone" She ends
"Kill someone? Like shoot them?? No way I cant take someone's life. It would be selfish. I cant sorry. What if I dont continue the family buisness?" As Im about to cry she hugs me and says
"Hope..Then we will have a big problem. Listen, you are one step ahead of the other gangs. Until they dont find out your mother and uncle are dead you will be safe and alive. A month ago the rumours started that your mother is very ill. All of the gangs are just waiting for the day she dies so they can attack you. every gang in the world will come after you because you are the last blood of the family. They will want you so they could make a ceremony where they would take your blood and kill you with that they will take your family's gang.And you will be gone.
Hope please belive me when I say you this. Please think about it. You should really do that. Its the only way for you to be safe. I give you about 10 days before the others find out. The news always share quickly.Think about it honey. I will help you and take care of you." She ends
"okay, I will.. But what if they kill me when I am pregnant?" I ask
"They are not allowed to. When you say you have a husband and a child coming your way they will leave you alone. If there is a chance of you having a child they wont hurt you. They want your kid as much as you would. Because they need his blood even more than yours. The childs blood is pure" She ends and I nod
"Okay, now, why I really came here is beacuse I need you to track one of my friend's father. He is the mafia leader. I think my uncle kiddnaped him and took him somwhere before I killed him."I say
"Let me hear who that friend's father might be?" Lillian asks me
"Aldegro Esposito" I anwser.
I trust her with my life.
But as soon as I mention his name she jumps out of chair and agrees with it.
"So you will call me when your men find something?Whatever clue? " I ask Lillian
"Ofcourse, honey. I will call you as soon as I get any tips or any idea od his whereabouts" She huggs me
I trust her.
She is like my mom❤️
After eating we go out for a walk. I missed her.
I missed a "mother"
I am really grateful for Lillian.
The following day we spent laughing, baking, cooking, watching tv or playing golf.
I forgot how horrible my life is.
I felt normal.
I want to be normal
