Sherly stood inside her office. She smiled after the call from her father. However, it had just been a minute before they hung up when her father called again. She was a little worried and thought that her father might have changed his mind, but it was all in vain. Her worries aren't needed at all."Sherly, I... we can call you, right?" Her father's voice was full of worry. Well, who is the kind of parent who does not worry for their child? After all, she has been away since birth, so it was given to her father to worry about her."Dad, I need to be honest with you," she began, her tone serious as she prepared to deliver the news. Her father's face came from worries about being cold. Sherly shivered, as she could imagine her father's expression right now. She bit her lower lip before she continued, "I won't be able to talk to you for the next few days. It's... it's not safe for me to be in contact."Even though her father couldn't see her, even though she couldn't see her father's gl

Before the party started, Sherly sent a confirmation that she and her assistants would come. She told them the alias that would be the new name of her aids. Maria is Virgo, and Kim is Taurus. She couldn't even believe that they would use the zodiac names for themselves. After all, it wasn't the reason why she chose the Scorpio name. The grand doors of the venue swung open, revealing Sherly, Maria, and Kim as they stepped into the opulent surroundings of the Mafia ball. As they approached the reception desk, the receptionist greeted them warmly, a knowing glint in her eyes as she recognized them as representatives from the Information Center.Who wouldn't know that these people are from the Information Center?

In the corner of the ballroom, George and Liam stood side by side, their glasses of champagne glinting in the dim light as they observed the scene before them. He and Liam, as well as the other of their allies, couldn't help but frown. It was because these idiots seem not to be able to see if the person they're trying to talk to wants to talk to them or not. Their eyes were fixed on Sherly, Maria, and Kim, who were surrounded by a group of eager guests, all vying for their attention and trying to extract information.With a soft chuckle, George shook his head, a wry smile playing at his lips. "Would you look at that?" he remarked to Liam, his tone laced with amusement as he pointed his finger to the group gathering of the three people. "They're like vultures, swooping in for any crumb of information they can get their hands on," he said, shaking his head as if he had seen the most funny thing in his life.Liam nodded in agreement, a smirk tugging at the corners of his mouth. Of course

As George and Scorpio stood together on the balcony, enjoying a moment of respite from the bustling ballroom below, a sudden chill swept through the air, causing George to shiver involuntarily. Sensing a prickling sensation at the back of his neck, he couldn't shake the feeling of being watched.Who the hell has the right mind to look at him like that? He knows that there are plenty of people who want him dead and who want his head, but he can't believe that there's someone so eager to do so.Glancing around the balcony, George's eyes darted across the dimly lit surroundings, searching for any sign of the source of his unease. Yet, to his confusion, he saw nothing out of the ordinary, only the faint glow of the moon casting shadows across the elegant architecture.There's no one around, but if he felt that way, who would it be? "Scorpio, do you feel that?" George whispered, his voice barely above a murmur as he turned to his companion, a furrow forming between his brows. Even though

However, as he began to decipher the code in his mind, a realization dawned on him—it was Sherly.Sherly has her phoen with her. He thought that the boss of the information center doesn't bring any gadgets but an advanced one in her body. How could she give him a message?Furrowing his brow, George couldn't help but feel a surge of frustration and admiration at Sherly's cunning. No wonder everyone fears her. The way she deals with everything is really impressive.

Liam looked at him and wanted to ask, but he refrained. With George's expression, he knows that something good happened while he was gone, and he doesn't want to talk about those things.

As Sherly sifted through the stack of documents on her desk, her brows furrowed in concentration. Two days had passed since the ball, yet the memory of the mysterious figure who had glared at George lingered in her mind like a haunting specter.

"Do you know this woman?" Hideous asked as he placed a picture flat in front of her.As Sherly confirmed her recognition of the woman, a tense silence enveloped the room. Hideous's brows furrowed deeply, his gaze piercing as he absorbed the implications of Elisia's involvement.

Claiming Mr. Mafia [ Book 1 ] Chapter 69: Article About Keisley
As Sherly scanned through the article on her phone, her classmates crowded around, their voices a cacophony of curiosity. She really had no idea about this. Maybe because it was just posted and she has no idea about it. It was because she hadn't been opening her phone. "Is it true, Sherly? Your parents are really getting divorced?" one of them asked, eyes wide with disbelief.Though she doesn't know about it happening right now, that does not mean that she wasn't aware of it. Sherly nodded, her throat tight. "Yeah, it's happening.""Wow, that's intense," another chimed in. "What caused it?" he asked again.Sherly hesitated, unsure of how much to reveal. She doesn't want them to know because her father hasn't given a statement about the reason yet. "Um, just... differences, I guess. They've been drifting apart for a while. I don't really know about that. Besides, I don't interfere with the adult's decision," she explains.The questions kept coming, each one digging deeper into Sherly

After indicating everything that she needed to send to her father, she smiled, and she did not hesitate to send it to her father's email. Of course, she used her own underworld email. After all, it was more secure, and besides, she doesn't want to pose any danger to her father.Sherly's phone rang, and she saw her father's name on the caller's ID. Answering with a smile, she listened as he questioned how she obtained the information. Wow, how fast was her father contacting her? Maybe her father is waiting for her email. With a playful tone, Sherly replied, "Dad, a magician never reveals her secrets."Her teasing is different, so all that her father could do was chuckle, but his curiosity lingered. Sherly relented, explaining that it was a trade secret and leaving it at that. However, she quickly shifted the conversation to her strategy. Excitedly, she outlined her plan to set a trap for Joseph Santos.She explained everything to her father after she read that information. "All those

The man sighed as he received the call from Lilia. How long has it been since he has been working for her? It's been so long. Now, the contract is finally done. This is her last work for him.

Sherly slept deeply after George tucked her to sleep. George saw how tired she was staying by his side, and even though he is happy for it, he still has no heart to let her suffer like that. Not only that, that woman even tried to ruin their day. He took his phone and dialed Sherly's father's number. He didn't want Sherly to stay in that mood, so it was better for her father to deal with it sooner. In the middle of the night, someone posted a video. It has only been an hour, but it has gone viral in no time. The video of Sherly and her surrogate, Marie, arguing in the hospital quickly went viral, garnering overwhelming support for Sherly.

He sighed, knowing that their friendship wouldn't be able to go back to what it used to be.Liam's eyes narrowed. "So, what's your take on this? Should we hand him over?"

Without any words, as Sherly was on top of him, she bent closer and kissed him. She couldn't care more. The drug inside her finally kicked in and totally made her unable to think of anything. All she wanted was to get fucked by the person she loved. If it were the other people, she wouldn't let them get their way on her. She would do her best to get away from them. However, the person in front of her is the one she accepted, the one with whom she wanted to spend this night. George flinched when Sherly immediately inserted his rod inside her.
