My Back-Up Boyfriend is a Mafia Boss Chapter 23
Recently, I've been depressed quite a bit. Matt's phone calls and messages have been dwindling with each passing day. I can't stop thinking about what I heard that night during our last conversation. I am sure that I heard a woman's voice, but I don't want to cast any doubt on Matt. I know I shouldn't. After all, it's me who's been enjoying Elliot's frequent kisses these past several days. Since that day, Elliot and I have been sneaking kisses at each other whenever we get the chance. And I can't stop thinking about Ethan's words from the night we ate supper together. What transpired during that conversation is still fresh in my mind. "So, Elliot, your best friend has spent the entire day with you? Is Matt aware of this?" he inquired, inquisitively. Elliot had already departed before Ethan arrived for our supper, which I appreciated. I don't want Ethan to see him and say things he shouldn't say to him. "It's not a huge issue, Ethan." I answered. "As I've already stated, Elliot and I

For a long time, I've been on top of my game. And everything is progressing according to my plan. In just a few days, I'll be able to taste victory. Ari's fiancé, Matt, has been having a hard time trying to stay away from Chloe, and he'll be at a stalemate very soon. My office door slammed open, and Kyle walked in with a grin on his face. "Is there any new information? What do you want now?" I inquired. "What's the first thing you'd like to know? Legal, illegal, or a one-of-a-kind effort for your lady love?" "How about we start with the business side and then move on to Ari-related issues?" Even though I'm curious to know how her fiancé is doing, I'd like to learn more about our businesses first. "Fine. In terms of the legal side of things, the hotel expansion is progressing smoothly, and we expect to start construction in about three months. Ariella has been working hard on the project and has made significant progress." "Hmm." I mumbled. I'm confident Ari will be a terrific fit

I have no idea what occurred or how it happened, but the next thing I knew, I was driving myself to Ari's place. I got the chills when I heard her declare she actually hates Matt. That's it! This is the exact moment I've been looking forward to. The moment she realizes her fiancé is nothing more than a douche. This is also the ideal time for me to feature Elliot Allister, the adoring, devoted, and passionate lover she could ever have. I could sense my victory as soon as I hung up the phone and told her I'd meet her at her apartment. Kyle is irritated at me once again for leaving him with the majority of the day's work, but what can he do? Nothing! I'm the fucking boss, after all! I didn't even wait for my fucking driver because I was so desperate to see Ari that I drove myself. As I headed to Ari, a few of my men were following me. I can't go anywhere without my bodyguards, especially taking into account how perilous the life I'm leading is. One of the men approached me as soon as

When I received Matt's intimate photos with a lady I didn't know, I was distraught. I'm not sure what to think or feel about it. But it was the same woman in all of the photos and videos I viewed. And it only signifies one thing: they're having a relationship. Matt is cheating on me behind my back. Matt had the audacity to lie to my face and pretend to me that he was still in love with me. Elliot had been with me the entire day, and I was glad for his presence. I needed someone to comfort me and tell me that everything was going to be alright. I needed someone to listen to me and help me through it all. I couldn't even go to work because of how depressed I was over everything that had happened in my relationship with Matt. I never expected that we would end up like this. I never once thought he could do this. And, luckily, Elliot, my boss, has been really sympathetic to my predicament. He understands the pain that I am going through right now. I tried to keep my thoughts away from M

I'm not sure if I made the right decision. I'm not sure if I acted unreasonably again by not bothering to listen to Matt's explanation. I'm just completely messed up because he keeps lying to me. He says he loves me all the time, but does he truly mean every word of it? My phone notified me of an impending message. And it was Matt, as I had predicted, who had sent me a message. "I love you, Ari. Let's have a conversation about all of this. I have no idea what has happened and I'm not sure what you're getting at when you call me out like that. You know, I'd never do anything to purposely hurt you. Please talk to me if you have any issues with something I did. Let me understand all of this because I am completely lost. Ariella, let's figure this out together. You're aware of how much I love you and the fact that you're breaking up with me is killing me." When I read the message, a tear welled up in my eye. I'm befuddled and aching. Should I have given him an opportunity to explain him

When I heard her say those words, I froze in place. I stopped kissing her and was completely taken aback. I took a step back to give her adequate distance from me. Those are the words I've been waiting to hear. And she just blurted it all out right now. I'm not sure if I'm hearing things or if she actually said that. She whimpered, "Elliot." I tried to find justification by staring her in the eyes. I'm sure she doesn't mean what she states. Not at this time, when she had only recently discovered that her fiancé had cheated on her. When she's just broken up with Matt, how can she claim she loves me and mean it? "I'm sorry, Elliot. I'm sorry if I scared you." Ari stumbled over her words, unable to articulate what she had spoken. But this time, I'm not having it. "Baby, believe me when I say that I enjoy hearing those words from you. And I'd love to hear that over and over again, but I'm sure you don't mean it that way. You don't intend those words in their truest sense. Not now, when

"It's wonderful of the boss to come here today after being away for several days." As soon as I walked into the warehouse office, Kyle said sarcastically, "And look at that with a bright smile on his face." "Boss!" greeted Briton. "How polite of Briton to welcome me first, while you, the jerk, greeted me with sarcasm the instant I walked in." I muttered as I walked straight to my office chair. "For fuck's sake, I almost believed we'd lost you somewhere because you've been missing for several days and can't be reached. I'm on the brink of sending out a search party for you. So, boss, how do you want me to react now?" Kyle is clearly irritating me, but I'm not going to let him ruin my good mood on this good day. "You know, I was intending on giving you a big bonus for a job well done, but since you're being such a jerk, I'd be happy to change my mind." Kyle's eyes widen in response to my statements, and I can't help but smirk back. "Wait, you don't mean everything between Ari and yo

"From a legal standpoint, everything is fine with their transactions. Contracts and plans were all in sync with their operations. Gregory's group, in my opinion, is no longer relevant to our concerns. Their dealings have nothing to do with us." Kyle said after we ended our talk about the A-hotel group's development and projects. "Brit, any updates on that potential lead we're tracking on?" I asked, nodding my head and turning to Briton. "According to the most recent information we have, the Lucios and Dimitris conspiracy appears to have disintegrated. According to insiders, both factions are now on the lookout for each other after a recent deception." This piqued my interest even more. It appears that the closer we get to the information we seek; the newer loops emerge to bind us. "What started going down between those thugs?" I inquired, intrigued. With this incoming knowledge, I can see Kyle being more serious as well. "It appears that Lucio defrauded Dimitri about something. We

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
My Back-Up Boyfriend is a Mafia Boss Chapter 193.2
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
