“Eat it,” said Rey, while thrusting the food in front of Mia, which the woman again didn’t touch.She chose to stay in her room since she woke up in the morning. So Rey had to be patient and wake her up so they could sit together at a restaurant table not far from there.Mia seems reluctant to touch the food on the plate, and somehow the woman has played with the food several times by stirring it with a spoon and fork.In the end, Rey just let it go because Mia’s mood seemed to worsen.And when he turned his head towards the window, Rey’s body tensed up instantly because he saw a very familiar figure at the end of the parking lot.“Huh,” Rey muttered as he rolled his eyes and waved his hand faintly in the air, signaling the figure to leave immediately. Not long after, Rey’s gaze grew sharper when he found the figure chose to stay where it was.That is leaning against the body of a car in a parking lot. The rest of the Red Cage seemed to restrain the figure from going further.“You stu
Gideon parked the van he was driving in front of a mansion surrounded by gates. He looked around for someone to open the gate in front of him. However, after a long wait, there is no sign of their welcoming arrival.“Are you certain the homeowner will accept us?” Gideon eventually questioned.All the men looked out the window at the same time, and as Gideon had predicted, the homeowner had purposefully ignored their presence.“I just called him, and he didn’t answer,” Danny said, drawing a sharp glare from five pairs of eyes.“How come you didn’t tell me sooner?” Nicko inquired, followed by another irritated growl.Danny shrugged, his face innocent.“We can try it again,” he said to the men around him, who grunted.“Okay, just once more. If he doesn’t answer the phone, you should forget about him. We can think of a new strategy after we get to the house,” Nicko explained, receiving approval from the four heads.Danny stared blankly at his friends before calling the homeowner again.Th
Sean Reviano looked at the group of men who had just gotten out of the car in front of him in the same way he looked at insects in the back garden; it was very irritating.“I thought you came alone,” Sean Reviano said, his hands in his trouser pockets, his gaze sweeping over all the new faces in his memory box.Danny simply stretched his arms in the air as if to say, ‘You look at them. I have no choice.’ Sean snorted and opened the mansion door wider.“Come in,” he said coldly, eliciting the same expression from five pairs of eyes.Sean calmly took his visitors into a big meeting room. He didn’t have to respond to who the intruders were because both of his parents were outside.“What exactly do you expect from me?” Sean asked, closing the door behind him and allowing the six men to sit on a sofa in the center of the room.Jaxon fixed his gaze on the man in front of him as if judging Sean Reviano from head to toe. Sean followed suit.Meanwhile, Danny, seeing that the table in front of
“Do you want me to wait for you?” Rey inquired as he drove Mia to the Deli.The woman shook her head, indicating that she didn’t see the point.“Go, I know you have a lot of work,” she said, looking at the restaurant entrance where she used to work. “And if that’s what you’re worried about, plenty of people there will look after me.”Rey simply stared at her instead of leaving, as Mia had requested, creating an awkward atmosphere that forced the woman to clear her throat while lowering her head.“For many years, I’ve known this city and its people. So you have nothing to be concerned about. “Mia raised her head after saying that, but Rey remained expressionless.Knowing she couldn’t easily escape the man in front of her, the woman sighed and said, “Okay, you can do whatever you want as long as you don’t disrupt my friends’ time there.”The man smiled after saying these words, making Mia curse herself for thinking Rey was only looking for sympathy so he wouldn’t be kicked out.‘You ob
“Try again?” Mia’s former Deli coworker, Dorothy, suggestedMia was nervous because of her friend’s reaction after she said something personal, so she widened her eyes as if her eyeballs were about to roll out of the socket.“Which one?” Mia inquired a little hesitantly.Seeing the woman in front of her who pretended not to know, Dorothy slammed into the table so hard that their drinking glasses flew into the air, unexpectedly surprising Anne, a new employee at Deli, and Ruella, one of the restaurant’s loyal customers.Because the Deli is currently understaffed, the restaurant only operates for half a day.This is due to Matt’s desire to travel out of town for business while one employee is on leave, another is hospitalized with severe flu, and another is absent. Only Anne and one other employee remained. As a result, the man decided to close the Deli early after lunch.As a result, the four women were free to use the space as they pleased. And here they were, exchanging news after a
The women fell silent again after Mia’s sobbing stopped. They gave the girl some space to relax. Only the hiccups were audible.“We should talk about something else,” Ruella suggested, and the other two women agreed.“You’re right,” Dorothy murmured, then asked, “So, what are your plans for the future?”The room fell silent again as all eyes returned to Mia.The woman shook her head slowly, indicating that she, too, was at a loss for what to do next. Because everything happens all at once.Mia’s decision to go to Blueberry was also hasty, as it was the only place she knew.“Perhaps... I’ll stay at Blueberry and work at the Deli again,” she replied quietly. She sounded uncertain about what she had just said. Meanwhile, under the table, her hands were fidgeting.“If Matt doesn’t give you a job, you can come to me,” Ruella said, giving Mia a weak smile.In addition, the lady owns a boutique at a crossroads. Not far away from the restaurant.Due to the size of Blueberry, all market activi
Mia took her time leaving the restaurant. She looked around and noticed Rey leaning against the car door. Anne, who had been following from behind, also came to a halt.They both looked at Rey, who was still waiting with their eyes fixed.“Is that your husband?” Ruella inquired as she approached the door.There were now three pairs of eyes on Rey at the same time.“No,” Mia said as she walked ahead. “He is my husband’s friend.”“I assumed your husband was following you here.”Mia’s steps were almost halted by Ruella’s words. She covered it up, however, and resumed her walk.After all, it’s already been three days.Even though she didn’t want Jaxon to follow her, it didn’t mean she didn’t expect him to be there. Wouldn’t that show her how hard he’s trying to win her back? Or she’s simply too naive.Why had Jaxon come there after she had clearly left him?“I don’t think he’ll come,” Mia said quietly, blocking the wind blowing her hair.“How do you know?”Dorothy emerged unexpectedly amo
Jaxon was staring out the window. He’d been doing it for a few hours, which worried some of his friends nearby, but they chose to let him sink into his own thoughts.“Is it okay if he’s always like that?” Gavin, sitting on the couch with a deck of cards in his hand, asked.Nicko only raised his head briefly before returning his focus to the game on the table.“Mmm... mmm,” he muttered to himself.Gideon, who didn’t play the game, did the same thing, so Gavin tried not to overthink his friend’s condition.“I’ve never seen him like this,” Danny said abruptly, prompting Gavin to return his gaze to Jaxon.Now, his best friend approached the bookshelf, his fingers touching each title stacked in front of him. His demeanor may appear calm, but the five men in the room who had known Jaxon since they were children knew he was lost in his thoughts.“Look, he’s sadder than a broken-hearted teenager,” Danny added, prompting a loud snort from the subject of the conversation.“Hey, I can still hear

Mia appears to be talking and laughing with Disya in the gazebo when they both hear footsteps from the right side of the garden. At the same time, the women turned to face the source of the voice, who was none other than Allana.Mia greeted the arrival of her closest maids with a smile and invited her to join the table. On the other hand, Allana refused, turning her head slightly towards the path she had been on.Mia and Disya were also drawn to the female servant’s gaze. However, they discovered nothing, which puzzled Mia.“What exactly is it?”Allana returned her gaze to the two women in front of her and responded with a wave of hesitation.“There is... someone who wishes to meet... you and Miss Flontin,” she said, looking over at Disya, who was still sitting quietly with a cup of tea in her hand.Mia’s brows rose to her brows upon hearing this explanation.“Would you like to... see this person?” she asked, unsure.Because no one would look for her during her time in Aurelia, especi
Jaxon walked into the family’s living room, and there sat Jeff Bradwood, accompanied by his stepmother, Ruby. Jeff’s shoulders tensed as he noticed the presence of Red Cage members in the room, even though he had heard them before reaching the gate. However, seeing the parade of men enter the room, Jeff couldn’t even move from his seat on the sofa.“Jeff,” Jaxon said, putting his hands in his trouser pockets.Instead of responding, Jeff Bradwood simply cleared his throat and looked around. He consciously avoided his son’s bored stare.Jaxon’s gaze was drawn to Ruby, who smiled sensuously. But he ignored her. His attention was drawn back to his father, who was attempting to maintain a poker face.“I see you’re doing well,” Jaxon said as he sat down on the couch and made small talk.He gave the two people in front of him a difficult-to-read look.Meanwhile, the rest of the Red Cage appeared to be dispersed throughout the room. He seems to be on guard and keeping an eye on the situation.
Salvador arrived at their hidden island a few hours after the morning had passed. However, Fabiana was not among the people taken by the man.“Did you leave her in Chicago?”Jaxon’s gaze followed the people Salvador had brought to their island, one by one.“Yes,” the man said as he approached Gioluca’s nursing home. “But don’t be concerned. That woman is in a safe house, and only a few people I trust and I know about it.”Jaxon was aware that asking someone how effective they were at establishing people in organizations similar to their own would undermine their credibility. He stopped asking inquiries as a result.“Has Uncle Gio’s consciousness returned?”The question made Jaxon aware of his wandering thoughts.“He's still sleeping. And trust me, you have to be careful when you talk to the elderly guy about Mia and Disya.”Salvador gave Jaxon a weak smile. He was already aware that this was devastating news for him.“I see what you mean.”When the two arrived at Gioluca’s treatment f
Jaxon was alone on the balcony smoking when Nicko appeared from behind. The two guys stood parallel to the railing, seemingly in silence. Jaxon made the motion of passing smokes between them, indicating whatever had been previously forgotten between them.Now one could see the two males sharing a cigarette. They were admiring the lovely sky, which had a layer of Milky Way far above them.They both have access to a view of the night sky on this island, which is uncommon in urban areas. The sky there was considerably brighter than what they were accustomed to. Additionally, the moon’s crimson light seems to hover gracefully amid the various nighttime sights as if trying to distract the watchers’ gaze from what lies below.Jaxon finally spoke after a long silence. He held his stiff neck from looking up too long.In between cigarette puffs, he added, “Mia met Disya at De La Crush.”Nicko just nodded and murmured in response while placing the end of his cigarette in the ashtray.“She also
Four hours later…Six pairs of irritated eyes were staring at Jaxon.Nicko appeared to be the most agitated of the men at the table.“I told you not to kill him, Jax!”Rey attempted to calm him down for a brief moment.“The situation has now returned to normal. It is no longer necessary to make everything complicated,” said Rey, who attempted to take control of the situation. “Besides, no matter what we tell him, the possibility of a heart attack exists”Nicko tried to take a deep breath and massaged his throbbing temples.“Shit,” he exclaimed, clenching his fists and spilling them onto the helpless table.Meanwhile, Jaxon, who had been on trial earlier, could only look at his friends with resignation. He should have taken a more straightforward approach, but for some reason, his mouth was too bold to reveal everything. There was no way to open the conversation with a topic like that.“I’m sorry,” he said, sighing tiredly.Fortunately, Gioluca is in good health. And it is still being
“Did you tell him?” Jaxon chases after Nicko as he exits the treatment room.The man gave a weak shake of his head. And, he added emphatically, “No, not yet. I’m not going to be able to do it. “Jaxon drew Nicko into a hug after noticing his friend’s expression. One hand gently patted his back as he whispered encouraging words.“If you want, I can do it.”The sad-faced Nicko was skeptical after the two separated. He didn’t want to get carried away, as he had been when he arrived.“Thank you very much, Brother.”The two men exchanged understanding glances.“All right,” Nicko said, leaving a group of friends sitting on the waiting chairs, each holding the bags of chips and bread Gavin had brought.“Bye, brother,” the men said in unison, bidding each other farewell for the time being.Five pairs of eyes were now staring at Jaxon at the same time. They were waiting for the head of the Red Cage organization to confess to the future in-laws who were in that room.When he noticed his friends
Meanwhile, Jaxon looked silently at the two guys in the room from behind the glass pane outside the treatment room entrance.His firm lips twitched in a slight grin. He was comforted when he watched Gioluca treat Nicko so warmly.Nicko had one ambition since he was a teenager; to become a respected Famiglia member.Isolation, bullying, and harsh words are little Nicko’s daily fare. So, since he was a teenager, he had worked tirelessly, even harder than the others, just to be noticed. Nonetheless, despite his early success, his status in the Famiglia was still meager.Perhaps God has answered his prayers all along and provided him with the opportunity to realize a long-held dream.“He deserves to be there, Jax,” Rey Fredrik said, standing next to Jaxon. His hand caressed his friend’s shoulder. “Of all people, Nicko understands how the Famiglia lives.”Jaxon nodded in agreement after hearing Rey’s explanation.“I’m aware, and I’m not interested in anything. Mia is sufficient for me.”Th
When Nicko heard Henrieta’s report, he hung up the phone. He took several deep breaths before slowly exhaling. When he returned, he would explain himself to his lover.Even though he had no idea what was waiting for him, Nicko hoped Disya would listen to an explanation.He was about to turn around when a soft voice called his name behind him. As the person said his name with slightly trembling voice, Nicko’s heart raced.“Nicko … Anderson?”Nicko slowly turned his head towards the old man lying on the bed with his eyes closed before. Now that those eyes were staring at him, Nicko subconsciously lowered his head.Children born into the Famiglia have been taught not to look their elders in the eyes since they were toddlers. Because it was an unacceptable form of contestation. Unfortunately, the habit is solid, making Nicko sick of his previous life and he can’t change his behavior.Even though he is now the most feared and influential man in the state, he is still a doormat for those bo
