2026-07-24 19:53:27Renata drew her shoulders back as she gave her a look of surprise. “Are you kidding me? The hall is filled to the brim, and we have more patrons queuing outside and begging to come in. some are even offering to pay twice the entrance fee... Although just one special guest of honor is yet to arrive, it’s typical of him to be late anyway, but since he already gave me his word that he'll be here, he will be.”
Angela’s face fell now. “I do hope he keeps his word. They haven't visited the Burl

Saving Sarah 32. Cocky bastard!
"Where are we going?" She tried again.He scrutinized her for a few seconds. "To dump your lot in some volcano in Indonesia and be rid of you."Sarah frowned. "Funny!" She stated snidely.He cocked an eyebrow and said gruffly, "You don't see me smiling, do you?"Sarah didn't answer. "You are not going to answer me, are you?""No, I am not...Now, you are beginning to talk too much, so how about you shut up and go back to being mute?" He stated, gesturing with his cigar between his index and middle finger.Her glare had a certain intensity to it now. Her imaginations were also running wild. If she had the strength, she would probably toss him off the plane, but she was at a disadvantage because not only did the plane belong to him, from the way his muscles flexed or occasionally bulged through his shirt, she knew she might be the one ending up being tossed out of the plane. As a matter of fact, he was visibly bigger and stronger.She suspected he was a
Saving Sarah 31. Stefano speaks to Sarah
The man didn’t reply, he just avoided the mafia boss’ gaze, clearly petrified, yet adamant.Stefano who was rather displeased with the man's quiet reaction grew livid and fired a shot right at the man’s wound, making him scream and howl in agony and causing Sarah to flinch in her corner. “Chi cazzo ti ha mandato!" (Who sent you, God-damn-it!)”The man continued howling in pain as his leg bled profusely, while Stefano cussed under his breath, wiping above his lip with the wrist of his hand which was wielding the gun. “Egli e dannatamente inutile per me. (He's useless to me.)” He said through gritted teeth, then fired two shots into the crown of the man’s head.Sarah suddenly gasped, but quickly clamped her hands over her mouth, breathing hard in terror , while her eyes were wild in horror. Stefano’s impassive steel eyes found her and held her gaze for a moment. Just when Sarah thought he might shoot her too, he said instead to his men without taking his hard gaze off her. “Questo ca
Saving Sarah 30. Blood and champagne
Stefano subtly chuckled, then said to Dino, gesturing with his chin at the stage. “I think that one likes you.”Dino continued staring at Angela who had quickly averted her gaze, and was now trying so hard not to look towards his direction again while she resumed dancing. “I think not.”“C’mon, fool...” Stefano said. “Even a blind man will notice. She's got her eyes on you all night.”“Whatever you say,” Dino said indifferently and placed the hat on the table in front of him. “I will return it to her when the show is over.”“Playing the gentle man, uh?’ Stefano took a gulp of whiskey from his glass cup and frowned as it burned down his throat to warm his insides. “Do you have a taste for black women then? “I have a taste for beautiful women, skin color does not matter to me,” Dino simply said.Stefano nodded. “You could catch her panty too if she does throw it your way...I'm actually looking forward to that,” He ended with a sly grin.Dino shot his boss a quick glare but said nothing
Saving Sarah 29. She likes you, Dino
"Which one did you say he is?" Sarah asked as they both peeked at the guests through the stage's Red grand curtain."The one over there… with the brown shoulder holster," Angela pointed.Sarah frowned, noticing the guns on him. "Is he a cop or something?" Angela shrugged. "I think not, but does it matter what he does for a living? I like his demeanor, and that has covered for every other thing."Sarah scrutinized Dino for a moment. "Well, he's quite a handsome one," she admitted."I know, and I hope to catch his interest tonight, Sarah.""Then flaunt that body like you have never done before," Sarah advised in a sultry tone.Angela laughed. "Now, you sound like Adele."The stage director appeared at the other end. "It's time, girls. Get out there and look lively."Angela and Sarah smiled eagerly, and hurried to pose at the center of the stage as the curtains began to rise to reveal them and their backup dancers and singers.When the curtain was pulled out of view and the show began w
Saving Sarah 28. Take my girls
Stefano and Dino stepped into the Burlesque. They both lingered close to the doorway for a moment, observing the crowd and well-decorated hall. Stefano had a cigar hanging from the side of his lips, wearing his smoky hot look. He looked indifferent, and his face, hard and unsmiling as usual. An almost nude usherette who was clad in a scanty costume approached them both with a pad and pen at hand. "Mr. Franchetti?" She inquired, smiling."Yea," Stefano answered. The girl's smile broadened in admiration, obviously trying to mask her flirty smile with a formal one. Stefano could tell this difference due to years of experience. "This way, please. A special seat has been reserved for you upfront," she said.Stefano nodded and sauntered after the sexy usherette, with Dino by his side. "Tell me, Dino, do you think Renata intentionally picks the girls with dazzling smiles to always attend to me? It seems more like she is trying to entrap me."Dino shrugged nonchalantly. "They don't have d
Saving Sarah 26. Special guests
SEVEN MONTHS LATER..."It's the big show tonight!" Angela stated. "You have gotten so popular in such a short time; you know? Not even Adele reached limelight this fast, but somehow you learned quickly and managed very well on your own, even better than I had expected. I always knew you had it in you." Sarah briefly dabbed at her cheeks then wore a fake sapphire necklace around her neck, which was part of her costume. "Oh well, how time flies, right? I know, but what's so important about it? To me, tonight is just like every other night. Put on a big smile and pour your soul into the performance," she replied drily "It took me about two months to learn how to dance and lip-sync with style and charisma. Now it's taking longer to get Adele out of my skin," she stated irritably.Angela snorted and dismissively said- "Forget Adele. She's only mad at you because-""Because she thinks I stole her spotlight!" Sarah interrupted. "The fact that I get to perform the lead shows doesn't mean tha

They turned their heads at the sound of her voice and Fred quickly jumped off her with a shocked expression mixed with guilt and fear. Without taking his eyes off Sarah, he reached beside him, and with one hand, he quickly loosened the cord around Helen's wrists, setting her free.Helen, however, d
Saving Sarah 1 - Betrayal

“What do we do?” Fred asked as he paced the living room, one hand on his hip and the other on his head. He was greatly distressed unlike Helen who comfortably sat in the couch, watching him go back and forth.“Do you think she is really serious about becoming a nun?”
Saving Sarah 4 - A father's despair
"I want to be a nun." Declared Sarah.Her father sauntered out of his wine bar, holding a bottle of whiskey in one hand and a burning cigar between the fingers of his other hand. "Another ploy you brought from Chicago to rattle my chains, uh?" He casually asked, putting the cigar between h
