Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 48: Where is she now?
A few days went by and Mirable was doing a better job in adjusting to the office environment but it wasn’t easy to overcome the constant challenges that employees secretly threw her way, and even now, she’s still struggling with making any sort of genuine connection.“You there, come” Mirable politely walked over, she has gotten so used to being referred to as ‘You there’ that it has subconsciously replaced her name. “Yes, senior” “Take” she passed her a file “As the boss’s secretary you should be the one to handle this deal”“Pardon?” Mirable asked in puzzlement. Since she started walking in Maston Corp, the people she saw as seniors never offered her the task of landing a deal, why now?“Don’t ask silly questions, you should be thankful we’re giving you a chance to prove yourself” the lady scoffed.“No no, I’m very grateful. I’m so overjoyed that I couldn’t believe it, that’s why I asked. Sorry”“Humph! You better do a good job” the lady drawled as she walked away and Mirable act

The door to Franklin’s car sounded with a loud thud as he ran straight into the building, arriving at the front desk to inquire.At first they didn’t want to disclose the room number but after revealing his identity they spilled it. He took the elevator and immediately it opened his eyes rested on Rose whose hands were massaging her nape in exhaustion. “Huh, what are you doing here?” She asked in amazement but then fear crept in next as she thought,Did Donovan send him?…“Have you seen Mirable?” He questioned while walking out of the elevator and turning on the corridor. Rose followed behind and although she breathed a sigh of relief that he wasn’t here for her, she felt a new emotion engulf her heart.“Is Mirable in trouble?”“We’ll have to find out” He stated and suddenly walked up to a man who appeared to be a guard, he kicked him down and landed punches after punches, a second later he slammed open the door and Rose just watched with her mouth slightly ajar. What in the

One hour ago…The night sky was getting darker and Mirable was drowning further into the darkness of her mind. She could barely recognize her surroundings and Mitch knew it was time to finally get into action. He inched forward to nudge her like she was some undiscovered artifact in his possession. Technically speaking he wasn’t wrong for treading with caution. Mirable hung her neck down and her hair fell forward, completely covering her face and making her look like a ghost in transformation. “Hey” He nudged her again, almost in a whisper but her figure only swayed gently without a response. “What’s wrong with you? Is this your first time getting drunk or something…”“Ah!” He shrieked like a child caught redhanded, she suddenly flipped her head and stared him straight in the eyes like a vengeful spirit.“S-something is definitely wrong with you, stay away from me…” he retreated into his seat in fear but next she stood and approached him with wobbly steps. “P-please…sign the

Mirable’s POVWho does he think he is to boss me around? I blinked repeatedly as I watched him take steps away with my phone in his possession. I could barely balance myself and it felt as if I was as light as a feather. Somehow I managed to get my butt on the bed and flung my shoes every which way.Watching my heels fly in the air was like an exotic scene, it cracked me up so much and I found tears leaking from my eyes from excessive laughter, I couldn’t control my emotions, like hell! I couldn’t control anything! My body seemed to have a mind of its own!I slumped into the bed and got comfortable at the edge. I usually can’t sleep without the quilt covering me but my bones felt heavy, the thought of raising it over me was exhausting so I just laid there. Some time later, my eyes suddenly peeled open and I found a tall man standing beside my bed.“What is this? Who is this handsome man? … is this a dream?” My silly questions made me smile sheepishly but the man of my dreams had
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 52: Be my plaything
Mirable’s POVHe pulled away the next minute and my knees buckled resulting in my butt landing on the soft bed. All my life I’ve never been kissed! Yes, I was that innocent, I spent all my time studying to get good grades so I could get a good job, not sparing even a single evening for the party life.Right now my brain couldn’t comprehend what just happened or worse, it was done by the stone-cold Franklin!“W-why did… you do that?” My shaky voice came from my lowered head.“I’m gonna kill you if you still don’t remember”My brows knitted in frustration, what the hell is he talking about? He just kissed me yet he’s still going on about remembering stuff!I adjusted my hair and raised my head but when I met his piercing gaze I instantly darted my eyes away. I do remember I had a weird dream last night but it had nothing to do with him… Unless…“Ahhh!” A sharp gasp leaked from my lips, if that wasn’t a dream then does that mean I…kissed him? Wait, that’s far from the proble
Last Updated : 2024-10-29Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 53: The Lion’s den
Rosella’s POV I didn’t sleep a wink last night, the case with Mirable kept me up so I was well aware then Donovan didn’t resign to the bedroom. I should be thrilled by this information and take the opportunity to have a good night’s rest without his overwhelming presence but the situation at hand robbed me of sleep. By first light I had jumped out of bed and prepared myself, waiting for Franklin or even Mirable to show up. This feeling was new to me, I never had someone to care for except when I was with Jake but this time it’s different, I feel like I wanna protect her from the dark world of the elite but I can’t even protect myself. How frustrating is that?I waited in vain and fell asleep in the living room, it was only when I detected footsteps that I jolted awake. “Franklin” my throaty voice called out and halted his steps. “Where is Mirable? How is she?” I eagerly pressed for an answer and I noticed a flicker of emotion flash through his eyes which was very strange. F

Rosella’s POV The universe was at it again, I only just arrived but Olivia had already spotted me and was taking majestic steps toward me. Will it make me a coward if I make a run for it? I really don’t wanna get involved in any drama!“You came…” she looked above my head tentatively “…You’re alone” She ended her drawl with a victorious smirk. “Are you already being abandoned by Donn? Oh my!” She snickered with her delicate manicured fingers covering her lips. I didn’t have any reaction whatsoever, I just couldn’t be bothered but I must make one thing clear.“We aren’t close and we certainly aren’t friends. In the future let’s try to minimize our interaction to nothing” I said my piece and circled her frame to get away but of course, things weren’t that simple with someone like her. After our last interactions, I did my homework and one thing’s for sure, if you asked a hundred people what they thought of her, a hundred and fifty would describe her as a troublemaker!“Stop rig

Rosella’s POV My breathing became haggard as inexplicable fury consumed me.“I will only ask once, delete that picture” I said through gritted teeth.His audacious expression aggravated my lividness.“You don’t seem to get it, You’re not in any position to make demands. Do as I say and hope I’m benevolent enough to delete it. Understand?”I chewed the inside of my mouth, how in the world was I ever in love with such a nuisance?!This seems to be my thing, getting associated with mentally deranged individuals!“Look here, as you know I’m nothing but a mistress to Donovan. I have no say in whatever he chooses to do. I can’t stop him! Your tricks will only negatively affect the company”“That’s not my business!” He sharply retorted and my fingers twitched. I was itching to leave my print on his face. “Find a way to stop him tonight, otherwise… we’ll make headlines tomorrow”I had my doubts regardless of his threats. There was no way he would drag his name to the pits just to punish

Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 100: My Wife
Rosella’s POV Although, I hate the idea of going to a party organized by Olivia and her minions, but the getting ready process allowed me to see Mirable after some days. I knew she was working so I didn’t want to disturb her but I can’t help but feel I caused such a mess that night at the club. After all it was my exclusive idea to drag her along, she was against it and look what a mess happened. Maybe it was because of guilt but I didn’t communicate with her like I normally do when we go for dress fitting and styling. Or maybe I just didn’t have anything to say because my mind was busy thinking of Felix. I still haven’t reached out to him and I wondered if he would even have me. “All done” The attendant announced and I stared in the mirror. I looked stunning but my countenance wasn’t on par with my looks. “Mirable…” The moment I called her she had a call and shot me an apologetic look. It was a business call so I understood and while she left to take it I also left to attend th
Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 99: I need you
Rosella’s POV I was cornered by his chest and the look in his eyes told me he was highly suspicious of me but it still had a flicker of flirtatiousness. I knew I needed to save myself immediately!“I was looking for you, I just got a little carried away by the sculptures and antiques” I said in one breath and the smirk on his lips broadened. “And why where you searching for me, Rose?”I was racking my brain to think of an answer and I suddenly blurted out. “Because when I woke up you weren’t there”What the hell am is saying?! My words would only give the wrong idea and they did just that!“So you missed me that much?” His eyes widened a little with surprise and his appearance evidently got lighter. He was in a good mood over the wrong thing!“That’s not what I meant” I gritted out either way. It’s best I think of a different excuse. “Then why?” He questioned and covered the last straw of distance between us. How was I supposed to think with such proximity?! My brain immediatel
Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 98: An invitation
Rose had no intention of holding back her tears and she definitely had no intention of stopping. She grabbed onto his shirt and bawled her eyes out. Retching out the pain that was killing her inside. “What did I ever do wrong?! I wasn’t the best daughter but I wasn’t irredeemable either! I was so young! She could’ve waited a little bit longer! She could’ve been my mother for a few more years, then I wouldn’t resent her this much! Arrrrrgh!”Donovan didn’t say anything, he just let her cry to her heart’s content while gently stroking her head and patting her back. “If only I could meet her once, just once in this lifetime, that’s all I ask. I’m not hoping for a reunion or anything, I’m not that naive. I just want to know why she left me that night. I want to scream my lungs out and say. Why did you abandon me, Mother?! You told me to wait! You said you’d be back! Wasn’t I worth it?! Was I not f*cking worth it?!”“It’s okay, I’m here for you, Rose”Those soothing words from him fel
Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 97: The rain and snow
Rosella’s POV“What?” Before I could comprehend what was going on he pulled me by the hand into the now empty theater. He really sent everyone out! I stared at him in disbelief. I held his gaze for a minute longer and suddenly stared laughing. I wasn’t just laughing, I was wheezing. For odd reasons, I found the reality very absurd. The fact that Donovan actually has the potential to go crazy was exhilarating. The heavens really shared problems for everyone. Why was he so paranoid over such details? “Are you done laughing?” He sounded pissed. Maybe I did overstate the problem but it was still award-worthy. I cleared my throat and adjusted my hair.“Since you already chased everyone away like a petty two-year-old, I guess we have no choice but to see the movie, alone”Wait, alone?! I just realized that the jokes are on me! I’m trapped here alone with Donovan! What could be worse than that?We sat for the movie and after a moment the film started rolling. Maybe if I focused o
Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 96: Blonde and beautiful
Rosella’s POV “I already gave you my cycle report. I’m not ovulating now so give it a rest, will you?” I tried to act nonchalantly even though my heart was pumping blood faster than normal! This man might really end up killing me with a heart attack if he keeps this up. He wasn’t saying anything so I took that as my cue to slip away because no good could come from being naked in his presence. I was finally out of the puddle but he suddenly held me by my wrist.“Let’s help each other shower”“No!” I shouted instantly, I was against any unwanted attraction and I’m sure as hell the only reason why he was holding back was because of the injury otherwise, I would’ve really been in trouble. Still, I don’t have much time. His wound got so much better overnight, on that note he wasn’t lying, he even removed his IV drip. How audacious!“Why not?” He had nerves to ask after just threatening me with a dark promise. The reason was quite clear in my opinion.“Because I’m perfectly fine. Als
Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 95: Body Heat
Rosella’s POV I came into the room soaked from the rain, it was only a small distance I ran but the rain was so heavy that I got drenched in a matter of seconds.But when I entered the room, all thoughts of myself that clouded my mind ceased. The food tray I dropped on the shelf remained the same. It wasn’t even touched and the heavy wind from the window blew the curtains like it was going to cut from the rails any minute. Yet, my attention was on Donovan who was shivering so much. I didn’t know what else to do but call his name and run over to his side. “Donovan!” I nudged him and he responded to my call but his body vibrated more and that was due to my cold wet hands. “Sorry” I retracted my hands “I’ll go see if Alice is around to check on you” I stood to leave but he caught my wrist. “Don’t go” It was just like when he was asleep but this time he was awake, even though the illness caused his eyes to be barely open, I knew he was awake.“I’ll be back, let me just find he
Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 94: My Home
Rosella followed behind Odessa and was led to an outdoor balcony. Today was a sunny day so she wore a sundress and had a light scalp over her neck. Its blue color highlighted and ocean eyes and made her look refreshing in the midst of the swirling breeze while Odessa on the other hand, was on her usual heavy makeup with a red lipstick that stood out any day. If you were looking for the perfect woman to describe an aristocrat who doesn’t hold back in blinding everyone with her elaborate fashion sense. That position would already be taken by Odessa!And if no one told you, you definitely wouldn’t guess that she was in the medical field because she had a wild feel that made her perfect for the entertainment world yet, she was trapped in an office with a lab coat hanging from the coat holder. “You asked to speak with me” Rose was the first to break the ice, watching her sip a glass of juice and stare at the sky wasn’t really what she expected when she followed her all the way here, p
Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 93: Lingering lips
Rosella’s POV What in the world is wrong with this man? I didn’t reply and increased the pace of my cleaning, the faster I’m down with this the better for us all because he kept staring at me like I was a feast for his eyes. It’s a good thing he’s currently injured otherwise… I’d rather not think that because I’m still freaking sour from last time!I cleared my throat nervously for letting my mind wander and I carried on my act diligently but that’s not to say someone had the decency to curb his behavior and stop staring at me like that. “I’m done” I announced and that’s when he finally took a look at my hard work. He had the nerve to look skeptical about my cleanup.“I think you missed a spot” He said pointing to his lower abdomen like a four-year-old. For odd reasons, I found his behavior funny but I quickly regained my composure.“How would you know if I missed a spot when you had your eyes someplace else the entire time” I argued but he was just as thick-skinned as ever, ne
Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate Chapter 92: Locked doors
Rosella’s POV Donovan holding my hand in his sleep and telling me to stay was definitely not the outcome I expected. I couldn’t even leave if I wanted to because his grip on my wrist was made of iron so I lay there and miraculously he calmed down.His brows relaxed and his breathing stabilized. An intrusive thought tugged my heart but I brushed it off. Why on earth would he be dreaming of me and it looked pretty serious like he was scared I’d leave. I shook the thought off my head and slept and thankfully when my eyes opened it was morning. The bright sunny weather reflected from the huge curtains and sliced through to meet my cradled figure. I felt extremely comfortable clinging to my pillow and I didn’t want to wake up. I hugged it tighter but it suddenly made a sound that scared the living daylight out of me!“Ah!” I shot open my eyes and raised my head only to be staring Donovan straight in the face and my supposed pillow was nowhere in sight. I met his relaxed gaze and fel
