"Are you really insane, Lexy, to say something like that to Ari?" Markus snarled angrily. And I wanted to react the same way, but I chose otherwise. I may not agree with what Lexy said, but I also don't want to fuel their argument further, so I'd prefer to let this go for the time being.

"Do I appear to care whether you agree with me or not? I have the right to my own opinions and thoughts, you jerk." I've never seen Lexy so enraged as I see her now. "Also, why do you care what I have to say when all you care about is her? Oh, that's right on point! The reason why you are caring right now is because your little, Miss Perfect over here is being targeted by no one else but me."

"Lexy!" grumbled Markus while clenching his teeth in displeasure.

"Lexy, you're clearly making a mistake at this point. This is a misunderstanding, as this is absolutely not at all what he was trying to say to you."

"Don't even try to explain it to her, pumpkin. We don't owe her any explanation at all for how

    "What the hell is going on around here? Who would murder who?" Ethan's voice was the next to be heard on the scene, followed immediately behind him by Luke. And it's even better now that my brother and his underboss have arrived to add to the confusion in this already difficult situation. And what seemed to have been merely a miscommunication between Markus and Lexy would now escalate into a mafia clash if worse came to worse. Elliot remarked seriously, not even bothering to gaze in my direction. "Ethan, it is fortunate that you are here." If he is annoyed, I am significantly more peeved at him that he is believing Lexy's accusations over my explanations. "Your capo's declaration of love for Ariella cannot be taken lightly just like that. And with particular respect to you, I would really like to challenge the capo you have here, who is an asshole, to a brawl. I'm entirely alone with him on this match." "What?! Are you insane, Elliot?! Ethan, no!" I shrieked in panic. I am not ter

    I'm betrothed. We're sworn in. The reality of the situation is that Elliot Allister and I are engaged. Finally engaged at that! The entire scenario felt surreal up until this point. The fact that I am donning a diamond engagement ring on my ring finger, courtesy of Elliot Allister, continues to be beyond my comprehension days after we returned to Elliot's mansion. I still feel like I am on cloud nine, and whatever I do, I just can't keep the smile off my face. Who would have predicted that my fiancé would end up being the boy I grew up with, the one who began making me experience a wide range of emotions all at the same time? The man I tried to suppress my feelings for, and the person I never thought I would see again? And the one with whom I openly confessed to falling in love but who got me rejected in the end? The path to where we are was never easy. But the fact that Elliot Allister is my man is something I wouldn't trade for anything else, even if our lives aren't ideal or anyth

    Upon entering their hideout, Mattias was instantly welcomed with several irate questions from the boss. "What's the latest, Mattias? It's already been weeks since I heard the latest update about the work I gave you. You seem to be taking too much time and are laxing again." He has so far been gone for the past few days trying to conduct additional surveillance and gather more information about their target, and yet when he makes it back to base, the proclaimed boss is once again ranting at him and is still dissatisfied with the way he handles things, when in fact he is the one doing most of the work between them. "We can't remain slow if we want to reign in the underground. So what happened to the job I ordered you to do? Damn, you're being slow as nothing more than a turtle again!" Mattias fights the impulse to respond to trash talk like this. A part of him even regrets taking in this asshole and jerk because he is actually growing increasingly impatient with the way they are being

    Matthew Wilson. Almost everyone else came to believe that he had passed away. The general notion was that they had killed him, much the same as what they all did to his father, Dimitri Wilson. But almost every one of them harbored the wrong perception because he is still here. He is currently alive and is now on the hunt for vengeance. If they all genuinely thought that his near-death experience would deter him from exacting his bloody revenge on everyone who threatened his existence, they have all been mistaken once again. Because of his set of circumstances, he has now become all the more thirsty for blood as repayment for what he has experienced from them. He wished for everyone involved in his near-death experience to share his fate, but they, unlike him, will undoubtedly die in his hands. He is crazy and mad because that is all he can even think of since the moment he regained his consciousness and strength. And he won't be able to stop all of this desperation unless the Gregory

    Mattias Wilson. He was generally considered by everyone as the rotten apple, simply because he was a child born out of wedlock. He was unintentionally conceived by his parents, who can never be together. His father is a married man, and in no way can he take responsibility for him. He has always been the unwanted child who will never be good enough to compete with the crown prince. After all, he's nothing more than the result of his father's lust and carnal desires. Mattias was the son of a house servant, whom his father willingly took in out of concern for him as a young child. And everyone was gullible enough to believe those lies because they were perpetrated by his father. However, all of those statements are untrue. It was all made up to fool everyone and put an end to the rumors about his parents' secret affair. Yes, the fact that his mother was a servant was never actually true. His mother was initially Dimitri Wilson's love interest and the only woman he promised to bring to

    As soon as I walked into the coffee shop, I was accosted by a whiny voice with a barrage of questions, saying, "Oh my gosh! Ari, is that you? Ariella Gregory, is that really you? Where the hell have you been all this time? What actually happened to you that you were just suddenly off the radar?" Of course, seeing Trish here startled me. And now a big part of me wants to regret even passing by here. I don't want to explain myself, and I am not ready to see anybody just yet. I made the choice to stop by for a coffee while I was out conducting market research and making a trip to visit several A-hotel sites. "Trish?! Such a long time has passed. How have you been? We haven't really seen each other in such a long time. I believe it was during the gala event at that time that we last saw each other." She asked eagerly as she scanned the shop, "Yes, I know. It's been so long, but more than asking me, I should ask you the same thing, how have you been? Why did you suddenly leave your job?

    Elliot is slowly beginning to inquire about the reason behind my phone's continuous beeping since we arrived home, which I had anticipated from him. "Your mobile's been blaring since hours ago, sweetie. What is it all about? Who would that be? And why don't you just check it out and find out what it is that whoever that was wants from you?" Nobody but Trish could have been the one who was constantly sending me messages. I checked a few of her texts earlier but didn't bother replying since Elliot and I haven't actually talked about it yet, but my silence just encouraged her to bombard me with more and more messages. Following our chance encounter earlier today, she has already been contacting me to remind me of the night out tomorrow, which I haven't really committed to, but she is assuming that I already do. "It's not that important, babe. I'll attend to whoever that was after this movie that we are watching." I answered, trying to keep my focus on the screen again. "Baby, would you

    "Are you like fucking kidding me now, Ari? Is this what I actually took time to prepare for? When you said you were down with us bonding tonight, I didn't expect something like this." Trish simply cannot help but bitch and moan to me about the situation that we are in. And as much as I'd like to be irritated with her, I can't, simply because she does have a point to make me feel that way. "A picnic of sorts, really? What are we? A grade schooler?" "I am sorry. This is not how I intended this to be for us, but Elliot can really be way over the line with regards to me." She keeps rolling her eyes at me while continuously flipping her hair over her shoulders. "So what do we have to do? Just sit here all night and wait for El to be back? That is just so boring." I did not make more of an effort to control my giggle, even though I could feel her displeasure over it because I somehow wanted to continue to highlight to her how much Elliot values me in his heart. "At least I was permitted t

    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

  • My Back-Up Boyfriend is a Mafia Boss   Chapter 193.1

    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
