"Why me?" Zoey inquired.
She had been wondering about this for a long time. Nikolai was a smart guy if she set aside his violent tendency.
To be honest, Zoey respected Nikolai. In the past, she considered him as her family — Inigo as well. She was a kid when she joined the Silva Family.
Her life in this crime family might not be all rainbows and butterflies. However, she got to enjoy some days because of them.
They were all innocent, albeit not purely innocent. Still, they were all like siblings. Just what had happened?
If Nikolai didn't resort to such tactics, they would still be good friends. Zoey wouldn't hesitate to take a bullet for him just like in the past.
So, why?
Why would he resort to such underhanded tactics? Why wouldn't he let her go? Why can't he just be happy for her? And… Why would he need to ruin everything just because he wanted to keep her by his side?
