Jett"I'm sorry, Jett." Our family lawyer surrendered and sighed. "You know the madam's last will cannot be revoked. It's a genuine and notarized will. My power is limited in this situation."I gritted my teeth. "But it's an absurd will! How the hell is that kind of will even be allowed?"He only shook his head again. Mama's last will is unbelievably ridiculous. I can't believe she didn't tell me about this when she was still alive. I needed to be wed for a year first before being able to claim her assets. Bullshit!And this was approved by American law? Another bullshit!Grunting, I mumbled, "American law is hilarious."When I consulted Old Barry about it, he only laughed and said, "Well, you should go on and find a wife.""What? I'm saying I need suggestions on how to get the fortune without doing the will!" Then I paused and studied his face. Puzzled, I asked, "You're not in on this too, right?"He chewed his grapes slowly. "I was one of the witnesses of the madam's last will.""Ah

I punished myself by overworking and stressing over the pile of workload. It was a good respite for a few weeks. But the days went by agonizingly slow. I felt like such a different man after Fallon came into my life.I hated the change so much that I started blaming her.My past women didn't keep me up all night thinking about them. I was only there for the pleasure, and so were they. But with my wife, her sweating face and hair sprawled on the bed kept me awake all night.I was becoming a stranger to myself. I didn't know what I was feeling. And I feared the unknown the most.I felt like that week with her was the best week of my life. And I didn't even know what a 'best' week felt like before that."I don't understand what I'm feeling, and it scares me," I mumbled, half drunk."Do you like the young madam, Jett?"When I ran to Old Barry one night asking for help, I didn't understand his advice."I don't...I don't know.""Well, you don't feel hostility or dislike towards her, don't y

JettShe has been asleep for three days straight.The news of her kidnapping alarmed the guests of the casino that day and they kept annoying me for updates. I had to stay at the casino to settle the situation for those days that she was asleep and I felt gut-wrenching that I couldn't look over her personally.The workload piled more than before. It was keeping me in that office.For days, I holed up in that room again. I could only visit her late at night when I would see her in a slightly different position than last night's. That night's events traumatized her and exhausted her body, I thought.On the fourth day, I visited one of our ports for underground business. I had a ship full of traded goods arriving today, but I was informed that they were late for over an hour. I figured to personally check up on the situation, to find an excuse to leave the office for a moment."What did the pilot say?" I put my hands on my waist as I stood by the pier, awaiting the cargo ship. An umbrell

FallonThe next day, I was visited by Rory.I woke up late and was only informed of her arrival after I showered. I was still worn out from sneaking out yesterday and using a private plane to get to the Long Beach port and back.I received Leo's message on the Elite Ai that relayed HQ's orders to intercept an arriving cargo ship that closed a deal with Rios Mafia. It was a high-profile side-task which is why I met with other field agents in the private plane, and we invaded the ship.I remember I was almost caught by Jett, too.My colleagues had to finish up the task by collecting evidence and then I had to go back by plane to the mansion, which took me over an hour. I was faster than Jett, who had to drive for over four hours.And now, I must entertain an uninvited guest. Sighing, I descended the stairs wearing a simple black cropped shirt and white shorts, courtesy of Linda."Fallon!" Squealed Rory as soon as she saw me from the stairs. I plastered a smile on my face as I neared her

I wore the red dress freshly bought just earlier that day, as well as a small body bag. I sneaked back in and out of the mansion, with only Linda knowing my whereabouts. Now, I'm back inside Rory's Mazda and we're on our way to the notorious nightclub where the street deals mostly occur. These are more small-scale, informal trades in between accomplices of the Rios' and other "businessmen"."Well, there's no backing off now," Rory said as we stopped in front of the club. I nodded, trying to hide my excitement.I glanced at her.Sorry, Rory, you'll be alone most of the time tonight. I hope you keep yourself safe.As we entered, the club was already in full swing. Night has fallen and I see suspicious people everywhere I look. This place is undoubtedly the one in Fox's description. I asked him to dig into this club and he found out nasty stuff, and my side task tonight is to gather concrete evidence for those.We won't be raiding this place soon enough, though. If I do, they'll be suspi

I returned to the mansion at nearly midnight as if nothing happened.My eyes found Rory half-asleep at one of the tables, alone, and I felt slightly bad for leaving her. I dragged her back to the mansion and lent her one of the guest rooms before I texted her husband and he came to pick her up."Sorry for this, Fallon," Krieg apologized, his sleeping wife in his arms, "She's a very light drinker. Beats me how you managed to convince her to drink with you two, alone."Krieg was a light-hearted and bubbly man, like Rory. He was cool about it but did mutter a punishment before leaving. I chose not to dwell on it too much and climbed to my room, eager to send my first intel to HQ after starting this mission. I'd rather finish this as soon as I can, seeing how things are becoming more personal—especially with him.On my way to my room, I met Noire wandering around in one of the hallways. Noire was Ross and Niamh's 5-year-old child, and to see the little girl walking around alone is rare si

"Oh! What's Fallon doing here?"I slurred awake with the noise and was greeted with Niamh's face. She leaned into me and winced, "Did you drink?""Hmm?"She sniffed and gasped. "You did! Don't tell me you slept with my daughter while drunk?"Daughter? I looked around with a frown.Suddenly, I was reminded of last night's events. Huh. I did have a Smirnoff last night, and Niamh's daughter did ask me to sleep with her. I sat up and cleansed sleep off my eyes."Where were you last night? Noire was scared and asked me to sleep with her."Niamh climbed the bed to caress Noire's sleeping face. "We were doing... something."Frowning, I asked, "What? Is it something I'm not supposed to know again?""N-No... I mean-" She denied, avoiding my eyes. "We were directly ordered by the boss to keep it confidential. Sorry, Fall."They're still secretive from me and I've been noticing how careful Niamh speaks to me compared to when she speaks with the others. She may be the closest to me in this house,

Jett's hands were all over me like my lips were all over his. I couldn't think straight because of the liquor I know, and it's frustrating. The frustration was surely channelled in my kisses and he noticed because he pulled away.Dazed, he said, "Am I a bad kisser?"I immediately shook my head. He was a wonderful kisser. I didn't know if I meant that sincerely or if I had just been touch-deprived for so long. But what I know, is that the butterflies in my stomach are going wild. He made them go crazy with his touch and needy for his kisses.I pulled him in without another word. I was already catching my break after the intense make-out session, but the screw in my head was too loose to stop now. And so I gripped his buttons with so much thirst that even I surprised myself.Did I deprive myself of pleasure this much? I couldn't help but wonder."I didn't know the shy Fallon would have such an aggressive side."I groaned. "Shut up, you speak too much."My remark earned a grin on his fac

“One hundred! One hundred going once…” The auctioneer’s voice echoed inside the art studio, but it was slowly zoning out from a young man’s ears as he stared intently at the painting getting auctioned. “Going twice… No more? And…sold! Item 34 sold to Number 456 for 100,000 dollars!”Sebastian never imagined himself in an auction, better yet coming home with a bought item. He smiled and sat through the rest anyway, keeping his number on his lap. He’ll only auction for that one painting since all he needs is the experience for their next big assignment.After the auction, he went to the cashier to pay for the item and he was guided backstage to claim it. He thanked the cashier curtly, maintaining as minimal eye contact as possible, and pulling his black fedora hat lower as he picked up his item.It was an original painting by an international artist. It was half his size and had a simple but deep drawing. Sebastian sighed and left the auditorium with the painting. This can be his birthd

In a quiet neighborhood by the north, where a recent historical moment took place, lived a small family of three.

Note:This is the last chapter. Thank you to everyone who made it to this point!

Love in Deceit: Mafia Boss's Enigmatic Wife Chapter 94 – This is home
Warning: mature content.On a private island in Jett’s homeland in Madrid, lived a small family of three. It was a secluded island with only one mansion of marble and glass standing by the beach.From its lounge, a woman sat with crossed legs and a warm cup of coffee on her lap, watching the rising sun from the horizon of the sea. Her pin-straight black hair draped over her shoulders as her freshly returned bangs gently swayed over her forehead, inhaling the sweet morning dew. Her satin robe slipped and showed her smooth legs as she crossed her legs, letting the cold air seep into her nakedness under the robe. She paid it no mind and continued to appreciate the serenity the new dawn offered.Ah, this is the best retirement life she could’ve ever asked for, the woman thought.After years of constantly glancing over her shoulder, keeping her guard up, and longing for someone, finally, it’s all over. To live a life of languid and slow-living. To live without any reservations and … to ha

“…Therefore, the judge’s verdict shall be…”Warren Mongarde, who was once a mighty powerful man in a suit, looked as if he aged so much after a few weeks in trial. Cuffed and unshaved for days, he looked forlorn and misunderstood, to appeal to the jury.But it was all for naught when he heard it.“Guilty.”And the judge slammed his gavel decisively.Guilty. Such a small word for such a big thing.He knew his life would change drastically from here on out. It was inevitable. But for his age, he’d say he’s achieved enough. He’s already been the President of the US; is there anything more he can achieve to top that?So he laughed. He laughed loudly, his voice resonating in the court. All eyes were on him, but he continued to laugh. Their once dignified President now looked like a crazed serial killer who had just been sentenced to a life sentence.He doesn’t care anymore.Maybe, if he was given the chance to exact revenge…but he’s too old for that. He’s past his prime. He can’t even prop

FallonI was on the stairs of the jet when they pointed a gun at us. When I turned, I saw a Jaguar with a gun. Behind him were Leo, Rhino, and Panda. They all wore serious faces. I involuntarily gulped.From in front of the airport, I heard the cops’ sirens and sounds of shots being fired. Matt must be shooting them down as we speak.I put Sebby down and whispered, “Go inside.”“But Mama…”“Go.” I cut him off. “Mama will follow, I promise.”Sebby hesitantly entered the jet. Jett, who was also in the process of climbing, stared at Sebby with quiet reassurance. Once he was inside, I pulled out my gun. The pistol is in the hidden compartment with the silencer. I can’t believe my last use of this would be towards my colleagues. I roamed around the hangar and found one of its CCTVs.Jaguar found out what I was looking at and said, “It’ll only be hijacked for one minute more. We took too long.”“I see,” I said and locked eyes with all of them. My arm holding the gun was trembling. Everyone

FallonI watched Jett stagger backward and cough up blood.The man laughed, a mocking laughter. It irked me. Subconsciously, I was in the air and my feet connected to the side of Rhino’s head. My body twisted and delivered a clean flying kick to his head. It was over before I knew it, and the six-foot-tall giant was already clutching his head and groggy. I didn’t mean to attack one of them like that…but after I saw Jett and heard the man’s derisive laugh, I guess I lost it. “That’s all you got?”I heard a sneer from behind. Realizing what I’d done, I sent an apologetic gaze to Rhino who was still dazed and visibly disoriented. “Looks like you’ve lost your touch.”“Why don’t you come at me, then?”The man chuckled and walked toward us, provoked.“Fine.”I backed away, giving them space to fight. Jett was only barely taller than him, and the man was more buff. Jett was in his stance. The latter was standing upright, relaxed.I thought he’d go on the defense, but after Jett’s first pun
