LAKE“No.” I swallowed down my emotions. Owen and Homer might have sensed something went wrong inside my father’s office.“That’s sad. I missed her, honey. You should go and take her home.”“She chose to stay. Why would I?”“What’s upsetting you, Lake?” she asked and must have sensed the heaviness of anger in my voice.I squeezed my eyes shut when it began to burn and pressed my fingers against my aching temple. “Is Dad sick? Is it true? Aurelia just told me, and I don’t believe a word coming from that woman’s mouth.”When I heard her sigh, she didn’t have to say yes.I blinked off the tears behind my lids. “How long have you known?”She went quiet momentarily before she spoke, “Your father tried to conceal it from anyone until you came back to take over the seat. If Aurelia told you, then this is not good.”“So, it’s been fuck— it’s been months, and he didn’t even tell me. Instead, he chose to hurt my wife. He chose the hardest fucking way to convince me to turn away from my wife. Wh

MAVERICKI rushed outside, surrendering to my humiliation. My chest filled with regrets as I succumbed to my heartbreak. I cried in silence, gripping the wall, holding on to my dear life when I felt like I was about to collapse and I couldn’t breathe.“Mrs. Winston?”I bit my bottom to stifle my cry, but it still slipped out. I punched the elevator button, but it somehow didn’t work until Owen pressed his card.I was so stupid to come back and think it would be the same. He helped me inside the elevator as I hid my face and cried against the wall.“He’s been stressed out. I’m glad you’re back.”I shook my head repeatedly.“Let’s get back inside.”“No. I’m going to Nana.” I wiped my tears with the back of my hand as I tried to stand straight, still holding my suitcase.“Your grandmother has been staying at your home.”“Home?” I met his gaze.“Yes. I will take you there.”“No.”Once we reached the parking area, I walked past him, dragging my suitcase away while he followed me easily.“A

LAKE“Why the fuck did you lie to her, boss?”My eyes narrowed at Homer. “How is it your fucking business?”For a second, he was taken aback. “Yes, it’s none of my business. As far as I know, she saved you from humiliation, from losing your companies and your money, and prevented you from going to jail. She also saved her grandmother’s life. I think she doesn’t deserve what you did tonight. Maybe a little gratitude would be nice to a poor woman, boss.”I inhaled a deep breath as I accepted my defeat. I’d been gripping the glass of whisky. I’d been avoiding alcohol at all costs for months, but I’d been tempted many times. Maybe it was time for me to get back to how it was supposed to be.I raised the glass, and it was snatched from my hand. I watched with open mouth as Homer downed it empty, then set it back in my grip.“Thanks.” He then walked away.“Homer.”“Yeah.” He turned around. “If you wanna fire me, go ahead, but I won’t apologize for what I said. I like your wife. She’s full o

MAVERICK“Nana, I’ll see you soon. I love you.” Damn it. I hung up the call. I missed her appointment. I forgot she had a monthly doctor’s visit for six months.“Where do you think you’re going?”I was picking up some cute dresses when Terzo came to inspect the clothes I would wear for tonight.“Jeez, Terzo. I can’t just sit here and be bored to death.”“You’re going to a club?”I exhaled a breath and sat on his bed. “I need a life. Don’t worry, you can do your little uncle’s duty if I try to drink. I’ll have a club soda. I promise, and I’m a responsible person.” I picked two dresses, white and black.“I went to see Moses Braddson.”“What the hell?” I was quickly on my feet. “Why can’t you just stay dead?”“Why? I don’t want to be dead anymore. I love my life.”I shook my head in annoyance. “You’re stubborn. It’s better that people know you’re dead, Terzo.”“You’re stubborn, too. I wonder where you got that from.”I rolled my eyes.“Why don’t you go back to work and show your stupid,

LAKEIt breaks me.She broke me to pieces. The way she looked at me, crying before me, and those eyes clouded with so much pain, I lost it. I blinked away the tears in my eyes but eventually fell.How did we get to this point? I had no idea.Our elevator ride to the penthouse seemed to become more unnerving as if we were going to a war with no return and no chances of winning, but I took that leap.“Can I get you something to drink?”“No.” One word was all it took.I couldn’t take it anymore. “I lied.”She settled on the couch, and I sat across her. “Which one?”“I didn’t file a divorce.”Her eyes shifted to me. “Why did you lie to me?”I let go of a hard breath. “I haven’t been with anyone nor looked at any women—” I raised my hand. “Okay. I looked at women. It would be another lie if I said I didn’t. I looked at Mom, but you know what I mean. The last woman I had was you in our bed thirty-one days ago.”She wallowed hard.“I didn’t break my promises nor my vows.”“Why did you lie th

LAKE“I’ve given you chances to lay down your daddy issues, and I’ve sacrificed my life for you, but you chose to hurt me instead of being happy that I’m back. Go to hell, Lake. Leave me alone.” She went to her room and slammed the door in my face.“Fuck. Fuck.” I scratched my head in anger and annoyance.“OB! Huxley, get in here!”They came running upstairs.“Fine out, and what bank did she open that safe deposit box? Now!” It seemed it was too important to her. “I didn’t give a damn if it was midnight or morning. I need to get into that bank and take what she has in that safe.”“We can just ask her.”“Good luck with that.” I glared at Owen as I went downstairs.Five minutes later, Owen came. “You should call the bank manager and tell him to open the bank. You’re the boss, the rich, and tell him it’s a matter of life and death.”In about an hour, we arrived at the bank after I promise the manager that I would open an account and deposit fifty million dollars, so he agreed.“It’s numb

MAVERICKHow could I stay angry when he looked about to break down before me? As stupid as it may sound, I felt the sincerity in his apology, and on top of that, he had a lot on his plate the other night. I understood what physical, emotional, and even financial struggles meant. I went through that for years.When I found out Nana was sick and I couldn’t help her even financially, it broke my heart. I felt like my world stopped at that moment, and she was the only family I considered at that time.After I ate the ice cream, I went to my room and brushed my teeth. Then I tucked myself in bed. My phone buzzed.TERZO: You left with your dick husband.I rolled my eyes.MAVERICK: My husband is also the father of my child, Terzo.TERZO: How could you stay with that guy?MAVERICK: He was mad the other night. He just found out his dick father is sick. He lied, btw. He did not cheat on me nor file a divorce.TERZO: So that’s it? You’re back together.MAVERICK: Testing the water. My child needs

LAKEWhen I sent a group chat to everyone and asked them to bring some balloons, I did not expect them to go overboard.Augustine and Mom called me to ask about the occasion. They were the first to know that Maverick and I were having a baby.Thinking that I was going to be a father was overwhelming. That thought of it scared the hell out of me that I might turn out to be my father, but my child would never experience what I had been through. I would make sure of that.The look on her face was priceless. At the same time, it scared me that she looked so shocked.Of course, the surprise party wouldn’t be complete without our family and close friends. I even called her brother.“Are you mad at me?”“For breaking the news without my permission? I’m used to it by now, spoilsport.”“Sorry, baby.”“It’s fine, really.”“You made me happy, darling.” Watching Mom hug my wife was the best image I could show the world. I took a picture of them together, even if Cooper got it covered.“I told you

TERZOThe thick wooden doubled-door swung open to my father’s office. It was one of the biggest rooms in the house where business was discussed and where the most secured safe and panic room were situated, where he kept his most valuables.I was assaulted by the scents of cedar wood and expensive cigars hung thick in the air.I let go of a shuddering breath as I stepped inside. Gaetano Siciliano, the patriarch of the family, the Don— one of the most powerful and feared heads of the mafias in Italian history— my father was sitting in his chair before his massive desk. His thick brows knitted together, hanging low over his dark caramel eyes and gray hair cut stylishly. In his sixties, he was still fit, strong, and could beat me in the ring if he desired to, but he always humbly said his prime was over.“Figlio.”“Come va, papa?”Papa nodded in acknowledgment. “Come in. How’s your sister?”Standing in the left corner that caught my eye was Celestina, my other beautiful sister who had bee

MAVERICKI smiled as we finally had time for each other. Atlas just fell asleep.Lake cupped my face and traced my lips with his thumb. “Thank you for making me complete, the happiest man on this planet, and for being my wife.”My heart exploded with his words with so much joy. “Ditto. Now, no more talking. Just get rid of your clothes.”He held his laugh, shaking his head as we began taking our clothes off. There was nothing much to strip off. I was in my sexy red lingerie, and he was in his pants.To be honest, our only problem was our time for both of us— most of the time while we were naked in bed, Atlas began waking up and started to cry.“I love you, baby.”I parted my lips as I watched the desire flicker in his eyes. He then dipped down, tagging my bottom lip between his teeth. He groaned as he pressed his hard cock against my lower belly and then cupped my ass as he finally captured my mouth in a passionate kiss, gliding his tongue inside, dominating me.Moaning, I instantly w

MAVERICKEight months later, Southampton I had a teary-eyed earlier as Cooper carried the precious angel I’d never thought I could love beyond anything in this world. He was five months old today and became the center of our universe. He was our ringbearer, and everyone, oh and ah, as he put on a cute little suit, while Nana and Beatreigh had been giggling since I walked down the aisle with my father, Gaetano.Like what he promised to my husband when Lake asked for the blessings he would be here, my friends and family, everyone I loved, including Terzo and Celestina. Lake did his luck inviting my mother. Surprisingly, she was here alone.“What’s in your head, baby?” the most handsome groom I’d ever seen smiled. He still took my breath away when he did that.After all these years of finding my perfect one, he came to me at the right time, even for the wrong reason.Then, our whole universe, Atlas Sawyer Bates Winston, came into our world, adding more colors to our lives. Sawyer was my
Marrying the Mafia's Daughter Chapter 185 - Mamma Maverick and Dada Lake
LAKE“Oh, my God!” My mother was the first to react, seeing the golf ball pop into blue smoke as soon as my uncle executed a stroke.“I knew it. Look at her abdomen,” Augustine said to my mother.“I told you, remember?” Mom seemed to find a new good friend in Augustine. They went to coffee or shopping together and sometimes baked at home. I was glad they got along so well. They were going to be excellent guides in raising our child.When we held our gender reveal party, Maverick was already six months pregnant. It was worth the wait. Everyone was here— our families, close friends, her friends from the Bazz, and, of course, our extended family.“You should promote my baby products, Maverick.”Amused, I shook my head at Estelle. “Give my wife a break.”“You’re the one who’s not giving her a break,” London replied. “She’s going to wear LH maternity dress for the photoshoots.“Congratulations, cuz.” Striker came to me.“Thanks.” We hugged each other.“Are you ready to be a father?”“I don

MAVERICK“Whoa. Why the long face?” I shoved a spoonful of butter pecan ice cream into my mouth as I watched Lake’s face seemingly in deep, miserable thoughts. “Babe?”“Yeah?” He looked at me, looking guilty.“Did you just cheat on me in that four hours?”“Baby, why do you always think like that?”“Lake, cheating doesn’t only mean you’re sleeping or kissing the other woman. Could be lying, keeping something important from me.”“I know.” He rose from the chair to join me on the couch. Then he pulled me close to him so he could hug me. “You like that?”“Yeah. You want some?” I scooped and offered, but he shook his head.“I want to tell you something.” I could feel the heaviness of guilt in his voice. Whatever he was about to say, I was sure he had reasons.“Shoot.”“I went to Nana.” It lightened up my chest when he called my grandmother Nana. One time, when he talked about my father, he called him Papa even though I still called Gaetano by his name.“And?” I met his gaze.“Your mother w

LAKE“She did not ruin your life. You ruined your own life by sleeping with the most dangerous man,” Augustine spat her anger out.I felt her anger towards her daughter was decades long, and she just had time to let it out of her chest.“You were only eighteen,” she added. “I had high hopes for you, but you disappointed your father. You were reckless and stupid and slept with a married man. You didn’t even know what care and love meant, and after you were gone for months, you came to me five months pregnant. Don’t blame your miserable life and poor choices on the poor, innocent child. She’s been through enough and all of that because you caused her so much pain.”“What do you want from my wife, Florence?”She lifted her chin. “I just wanted to meet her.”“Why now? Why not before when she didn’t have a mother at her first school recital? On her first time having a period? I’m your last to get out of here without being dragged into a van. Terzo is still in town, Florence.”She blinked t

LAKE“Are you okay?” I glanced down at Maverick working on her tan beside the pool.She looked pretty satisfied and comfortable in her yellow two-piece swimsuit and sunglasses, which shielded her eyes from the blazing sun.“Why do you keep asking me that?” She slightly lifted her chin.“Did you put enough sunscreen on?” I wanted to see her eyes but was disappointed that she kept her sunglasses on.“Don’t worry. I need more Vitamin D.” She strolled her gaze at me.“My Vitamin D isn’t enough for you?”When she saw me smirking, she slightly tipped her head down, glaring. “Not everything is about your dick, Lake. Going somewhere?”“Yeah. I’ll be back in a couple of hours.”“A date?”“Yes, Maverick. I have a date. You might as well put Airtag on me.”“Can you buy butter pecan ice cream for me?”“Of course. Anything else?”“Bring your cock back untouched.”I laughed, making her frown. “My cock is exclusively yours, baby.” I bent down to cup her face and kissed her on the lips. “I promise yo

MAVERICK“Linden made fun of me. He sent me every copy of the books he read while Estelle had their first baby, Gabrielle. I’m done reading the first two books.”“Is that why you’re so calmer than me because of these books?”“You may be stubborn, but when it comes to our unborn child, you’re very responsible. Hence, we never argued about it. We most argued about money and my spending on you.”“I did not tell you that I love the ring.” I raised my hand. It was a Marquise cut, the same size as my first engagement ring.“Thank you, baby. I have good taste, you know.” I found some meaning in his words.“I bet.”Once he was done eating, he went to a small fridge and brought two bottled water. He opened one and gave it to me.“Thank you.” I drank it.“Can you stay a little longer?”“Why? Isn’t a chairman and CEO has a lot of work to do?”“That can wait.” He stood before me, cupped my head, and kissed me hard.My hands came to his arms, gripping them as he deepened the kiss and shoved his to
Marrying the Mafia's Daughter Chapter 180 - What Happens in the Office
MAVERICKWe finally found out the gender of our baby this morning. I could see the joy in Lake’s eyes as the doctor told us. He was excited and couldn’t wait to meet our baby. He was even teary-eyed as he kissed my tummy.One thing he assured me was that he didn’t care about either a boy or a girl as long as our child was healthy, and I couldn’t agree more.On the other hand, I was a little bit scared of a lot of things, including labor and the pressure of being a first-time mother.I was still astounded at how lucky I was to be his wife. Aside from being overprotective and bossy, he was also thoughtful and loving.After Beatreigh, Nana, and I visited a bridal boutique, we had a late lunch, and then I decided to pay a visit to my husband, who was never invited to the Chairman and CEO’s office. The last time I planned on walking into this building was my confrontation with Wallace, but it didn’t happen.So, I thought I would surprise Lake.I knocked on his office door when Venus told m
