Chapter 136

• "So because of that, I cut off all contacts with my family, only calling them with unknown numbers once in every six months. I always called to check up on them, but never stayed on the line long enough to be asked where I was. My mom had been so broken by my disappearance, but I convinced myself I was doing this for her good. Meanwhile, Patawan had brought me into a kind of life I least expected. It was later on that I realized what he had done to me. He had trafficked me. He had sent me off to the Russo drug factory, where I worked day and night shift for him. He was caring the least bit for me and I was slowly becoming a shadow of myself, falling into the pool of addiction all the more. One day, I had blacked out during an inspection on the factory, and that was how I met Alexander. He was the Don at the time, and had been the visited for a special inspection. For Alexander, he was just concerned about the woman who had passed out from excess coke in her system."
• "He always came over to the factory to check up on me and it was weird that a man who oversaw a large scale cocaine factory such as that of the Russos, was bothered about an addicted woman. But I guess it gradually turned into something more as time went. Somehow, Patawan heard about it and decided to use it to his advantage." She suddenly paused, tears cloud her eyes once more. In that moment, everyone knew this was the part they had all been waiting for.
• "Go on." Alexander's father urged impatiently, and she nodded.
