Ari and I haven't seen each other since she came last time to see me at work. We've both been really busy. She's been working on the hotel expansion plans and probably spending more time with her boyfriend than I ever wanted. While I've been working on finding out more about Dimitri Wilson with Kyle and Brit.

Later today, Kyle and I will meet with both of our fathers. We both agreed that now was the perfect time to inform them about Dimitri Wilson's re-emergence. We have been taking all the steps we could think of to learn more about the groups that have been causing me headaches for the past few weeks, but it all turned out to be futile. At this point, I'm becoming very upset that I'm being blinded by facts.

We were in the warehouse getting ready for the parents' meeting when Briton entered the room. As soon as he walked in, he greeted, "Boss."

"Any urgent news and reports, Briton?" As I beckoned him to come inside, I inquired.

"All of the other warehouses have been renovated. To

    My father and Kyle's father appear to be conversing in their own minds. It's as though their minds are intertwined in a never-ending loop of possibilities. "Hey, old man, we're still here and waiting for an explanation." By shooing his father's arm away, Kyle disrupted our fathers' stares. His father reacted to him and said, "Asshole! Better act your age, Kyle." He added, causing a laugh from Kyle and me despite the seriousness of the conversation we were having. "Whatever you say, dad. So, what are your thoughts on this?" Kyle inquired. Without saying anything, both of them continued to stare ahead. I shifted my position in my seat, apprehensive. Isn't that what I was expecting? This reaction from them? Is it really a significant issue? Were we put in jeopardy by Dimitri Wilson's abrupt reappearance? What is it that they want? I despise it when I'm so powerless and unaware of what's going on around me. As I lean back in my chair, I throw a glance at my father. I remarked, "Hey, d

    I haven't seen Ariella for quite some time now. I'm not sure how I'm going to react to her engagement to the jackass. Who would have guessed that the dickhead would even consider doing something like that? Who would have anticipated, that despite our attempts to eliminate him from the scene, he would strike us back with a vengeance? And right now, I'm so enraged that I want to fucking kill that piece of crap. I'll have to come up with a way to get him out of our lives completely. So, do I have to murder him? Is it a good idea to shoot him in the skull to put an end to my misery? It's either in his heart or in his head, maybe? As long as the fucker dies in an instant, I don't care. I need to think quickly and well, regardless of the situation. Aside from my concerns about Ariella's relationship, Kyle and I have been looking everywhere for information about Dimitri and Lucio. In our warehouse's basement, the spy is still breathing, and Briton never lets a day go by without striking him

    Surprise, I quickly stood up, almost making Marga fall from my lap if she hadn’t held on to the table. "What the fuck, Elliot?" Marga hissed while trying to fix her clothes before turning to Ari. Ari, on the other hand, was the one who was glaring daggers at the both of us. "Care to explain, boyfriend?" She snapped back at me, her eyes strained at Marga. I try to compose myself and fix my clothes as well. "Boyfriend?! Whom are you referring to as your boyfriend?" Marga roared in response before I could even utter a word. And I wish Kyle would suddenly appear at that moment. "My boyfriend is the man you're straddling with. Inform her, Elliot. Clarify who I am to this narcissist of yours." Ari screamed, leaving me stunned as I stared at her. Is she now referring to me as her boyfriend? Didn’t she say I'm just a fucking best friend? I'm a little perplexed now, but my chest began to pound furiously. I'd like the sound of that. I like being called her boyfriend. What the fuck, Elliot?

    When I walked into my warehouse office, Kyle and Briton were both staring at me, well, glaring at me. And I can understand Kyle's anger and I understand his frustration. I went out of the office with Ari a while back, while he was nagged by Marga. "What?" I inquired in a skeptical tone. "Where the fuck have you been all this time?" he asked. I responded, "I told you I'd just drop Ari off at her place." "What a wonderful gesture to drop her off at her place. Even though you knew we were going to have to talk about a lot of shit, you even stayed for a long time!" "Boss, you must have forgotten, several of our guys have been assigned to lady love's safekeeping. The guys follow her wherever she goes." Fucking shit, I totally forgot that. I cannot lie about this, I guess. "The both of you, don't you forget who I am-" As they cut me off, they both shouted, "Yeah, you're the fucking boss!" I couldn't keep myself from a tight smile that escaped my lips. "I'm not sure why you're even s

    When I saw that bitch straddling Elliot, I don't know what it was that made me respond the way I did. I'm sure I shouldn't have made such a fuss. I'm sure I shouldn't have been so enraged. For the love of God, I'm engaged. What I don't understand is why I behaved the way I did. It bothered me that she was all over him, while Elliot was clearly enjoying every moment of it. I was furious when I caught her kissing my boyfriend! Yeah? Your boyfriend, Ari? Are you sure he's the real boyfriend? Gosh! I'm talking about my fake boyfriend! I'm a total shameless flirt! What is it about Elliot that makes me feel this way? I fucking have a boyfriend, and I just got engaged to him, which is a huge plus. But why do I still have the impression that the feelings I've had for Elliot that I tried to bury are slowly seeping back into my life? Why is it making its presence felt so suddenly? And every day, I'm left perplexed. I'm trying to convince myself that Matt's absence makes me miss him more. And

    The following weeks flew by without a trace. Matt and I don't get to talk or video call as often as we would like because Matt has been so busy with his work. Everything is simply so difficult when you factor in the time difference. Instead, we used messaging to stay in touch as often as possible. When I get up, I'd text him, but he was probably still asleep. When he awakens from his slumber, he will reply to me while I am still asleep. I have no choice but to understand our situation, as difficult as it may seem. I kept reminding myself that we are making these sacrifices for the sake of our future together. Just a little bit of sacrifice and then we can be together again. He can either return to work here in a few years, or I can come to him. We haven't really talked about our plans for the future, especially when it comes to tying the knot, because we're so focused on the moment, especially since Matt is slowly achieving his dreams. I checked my phone as I got out of bed to see

    I planned a surprise visit to Ariella's apartment today. Over the last few weeks, I've been extremely occupied with a range of tasks. And my business does not revolve solely around black markets and lawful ventures. A significant portion of my attention was devoted to strategizing and ensuring Marga's capacity to execute her job accurately. To say that I was startled by Matt's ability to switch off his desires is an understatement. If it weren't for the fact that he's Ari's fiancé, I'm positive I'd be impressed with him. He was able to disregard all of Marga's advances, forcing me to contemplate alternative options. I figured he must genuinely care about Ari, huh? This merely suggests that I'd have to improve my game. I can't seem to find a way to remove him from the picture. It's as if every time I come up with a brilliant scheme, it either backfires on me or the asshole comes up with a bigger and better strategy to derail my plans. And I'm a tad irritated. How much luckier can he g

    I'm not sure what came over me as I said those words, but that everything she wanted, she would get for today. Because, for the love of all things holy, this is the second chick flick we've watched since she finished her breakfast. And, as much as I wish to support her on this, I am literally pissed off with all the crying in the movie. I can absolutely not stand these kinds of films. Goddammit! I'm a mafia boss, and here I am, sitting and pretending to be completely enthralled in the film. The only benefit I get from all of this is the ability to get all touchy-feely with her leaning over to me. To be honest, I haven't been paying any attention to the movies because I've been too preoccupied with watching her. And every time I see her reaction, my pulse quickens. Despite not liking the movie we're watching, I have a sense of contentment in my heart. Being with her warms my heart in the same way that just looking at her does. And what would I be willing to give up to be able to enjoy

    Two men could be seen discreetly bickering over something in the stillness of the night. And although what was happening was visible to the rest of the men on the ground with them, they all chose not to interfere at this moment. They know better than to meddle with something that is not their concern. No one can genuinely understand what the verbal hubbub that is occurring between the two is all about as well. But whatever it is, it begins to appear to be about something big and important for the two to face off on the grounds just like that. The two men exchanged dirty, mean looks as they awaited each other's next move. And it also seemed as if they were about to each draw their firearms and end this ordeal between them, but both of them subsequently changed their minds and thought better of their situation. It really shouldn't reach such an extent once more. They now behave more calmly and rationally with each other than they used to in the past as a result of the changes in their

    The wedding ceremony is happening in a blur for both of them. They are just too focused on each other all the time, as they are both holding each other's hands. The couple is so overjoyed about everything that is happening that they were smiling all throughout. And why wouldn't they? They are getting married! "Now that you can, Elliot, you may now recite your vows." The priest directed him. Elliot wasn't accustomed to these situations, of course. He's never been kind to express how he really feels, especially about love topics, and most of all not in front of other people. Kyle and Brit are the only people who could possibly know everything about what his heart desires. Nevertheless, today, he is willing to voice his opinion openly about Ariella and take away all his inhibitions because he wants Ari to understand how important she is to him. Before actually beginning to say his vows, he even took a deep breath to compose himself. "Hey, you know how hard this is for me, Ari, sweetie.

    As I stood beside Kyle, my heartbeat was thumping frantically in my chest. I am anxious and excited, and I can tell that every person in the hall is feeling the same way as I am. This is where it all ends now. This is the culmination of everything that we've worked so hard to achieve. Today is a very special day for me and Ari, and everyone present here today is going to celebrate this momentous occasion with us. And I've honestly been eagerly awaiting this moment as well for a very long time now. But, in addition to that, I am currently experiencing a wide range of emotions. And for the very first time in my life, I can feel my hands and legs trembling at the same time at just the thought of Ariella Gregory. A distinct kind of nervousness is what I am starting to experience because, even though I'm anxious as I stand here with my best man, my excitement for what today will bring outweighs my nervousness by a long shot. Today is my most anticipated day. I'm going to get married tod

    "There may still be time for you to make up your mind and change the decisions that you made, so are you sure that this is exactly what you intended to be doing?" Markus is acting like an a-hole as usual at this moment. "Sure, everything else with the villains of your lives is done and over with, but are you absolutely able to say that you wanted to marry him, that douche? Just tell me, Ariella, and I am willing to save you from this misery that you are about to get yourself into." I scowled at him as I crossed my arms in front of my chest to just let him know that he was not in the least amusing me and that I was beginning to get upset and clearly annoyed with him. "Markus, are you done grating on my nerves? If you are, can you shut the hell up now?" "What the heck, pumpkin? Why are you being so rude and surly? I'm merely trying to provide some clarity to your muddled and disorganized thinking. And I just want to let you know there is still enough time to back out." "Shut the heck

    "It’s alright, dear. It's actually a very sweet gesture from you. And it just shows how much you really love my daughter." "I really do love her." He said proudly. Ari is too pleased, and she can feel the butterflies in her stomach again just hearing Elliot's words of affection for her in front of her mother. "And I love him too, so much, mom." She said proudly as well, then turning her attention to her fiance she said. "And yeah, I'm actually making your breakfast, but I thought that something must have happened because you kept calling and shouting my name that I have to see you. Are you seriously missing me all that much?" He replied confidently, "I certainly do." Then he lowers his voice and whispers to Ari, "Let's go back up into our room and I'll show you how much I miss you and how much I love you." "I like that." Ari answered grinning. She then turned to face her mother asking her, "Mom, will you be an angel and take over in the kitchen? Elliot and I just need to discuss s

    Elliot immediately woke up from his sleep when he dreamed about Ariella not being beside him. He tried to reach for her but was surprised to find out that she was really no longer lying next to him. "Ari!" He exclaimed in an instant. He's been so protective of her since the recent incident that the prospect of losing her again fills him with dread. He has lost her so many times in the past that he will not allow it to happen again. He jumped out of bed and briskly walked into the bathroom to look for her. "Baby?" He called out to her again but still got no response. He then tried looking for her in the walk-in closet, but still, she was nowhere to be seen. "Baby, where are you?" He says to himself. Instantly, he began to feel uneasy. How could she have gone anywhere without him? Did she abandon him? But why? What did he do to merit that from her? He tried reaching out to her all the time, but Ari is still finding it hard to get through the events of last time, and as he and Ethan d

    It is extremely simple to fool this young man who thinks so highly of himself, and as Mattias nods his head in agreement with Lucio, the elderly man feels he has done an outstanding job. With that being said, he has to leave immediately before Mattias poses a lot of questions that he wouldn't be able to answer. After concluding his report, he said, "With all of that information revealed to you, I will put it to rest at that for the time being." He then grabbed the money and, having to put it in his bag, rose up from his seat and proceeded to go. "I need to leave right now because I have somewhere I need to be. Call me if your big boss has another assignment for me." He declared, turning to leave without waiting for Mattias to respond. "The Allisters—what's up with them then?" The moment Mattias posed that query, Lucio halted in his tracks. "What? What about the Allisters?" "Isn't it that you told me you have information concerning both Gregory and Allister?" Mattias inquired as he

    Lucio was so excited about this meet-up that he greeted Mattias as soon as he came through the door, saying, "Mattias, it's been quite some time since I last heard from you. What surprises do you have in store for me now? Did the boss seem to like everything that I had to say about the Gregory and Allister families? I need details about what went through with your plans." The most recent incidents involving the Wilsons, Gregorys, and Allisters are still unknown to Lucio. He still doesn't know that Mattias and his men have been captured and are under direct orders from Elliot, nor does he know that Matthew is already dead. He made the decision to maintain a low profile after receiving numerous threats from an anonymous gang, and since he doesn't have anyone to back him up solidly, he decided to stay put and keep silent for a little while. And now he's overjoyed that Mattias has summoned him. He may not have information now, but Mattias won't know that, so it will be easy money for
