As the meeting with The Lord of the Rings members came to an end, I sighed and sat back in my new office chair. Mrs Camilla's PA was assigned to me. I was now her right-hand woman, which terrified me.
That was my father's position in The Black Mafia, and how it ended was not pleasant. I sometimes wish I could just quit everything, but looking back 17 years, I couldn't. The murderer is still alive and well, with no sense of guilt or remorse. And this irritates me even more.
I want to strangle Salvador to death one day, and I'm sure it's not far away. I will do everything for my boss, just like my father, but I will not become her puppet; I have self-esteem and a plan for myself. It will only take a while; my business is to simply kill Salvador; that is the reason for all of this, and I intend to do so soon. I guarantee it.
"Anything for your penny," Jackson said from the opposite seat. "Not at all; I was simply overwhelmed by the position." You know it wasn't eas
After having lunch together with the old man in a good restaurant, we spent some time together touring around the city of Mexico in my new car. I felt so good like nothing was wrong again. At night I parked the car and we strolled on the street together with the old man, making me laugh.We stopped at his favourite place and bought rotten potatoes. He helped me, pilled mine, and fed me, while I fed him back. My leg started hurting from the long trek and the old man bent to back me up. I laugh at him and turn him down, "I can walk on my own old man, are you even strong enough to carry me on your back? I'm heavy" I boost."Just keep shut and climb my back okay," he said and I did just that, and without a complaint, the old man backs me home without even a groan."I never knew you're this strong," I said, massaging his back."That's why you should always trust me, Cynthia. It's getting late, are you not going back" he asked and I only shrugged.
Santos TorialbaAs soon as we drove into my parent's mansion I sighed and came out of the car even before my driver did so. I was not in the mood for any pleasantries and so I walked past the maid and made my way upstairs to my step mum's room; dad should be in his office by now.I knock at the door and walk myself inside her elegant room. "Son" she called surprisedly and I cringe at the name."How did you arrive in Paris without letting me know first?""Is that necessary now?" I retorted. "How could you allow your husband to make that trash decision? For God Sake, I am old enough to take care of myself and I don't need you both to interfere in my relationship," I said angrily."Laura is a nice girl from a good family; we love you so much that your father agreed to the engagement," she explained."God forbid! I don't need anyone's fucking attention. That is something I am capable of doing. You both dropped it when you were suppos
After receiving an urgent call from the boss early in the morning, I quickly dressed up and stuffed some clothes into my suitcase; I couldn't believe I'd be flying out of the country that morning; it was all very sudden, and I'd never boarded a flight before.My boss and Jackson were already waiting for me when I arrived, as was my ticket and everything else. I can't believe she does all of that in such a short period. It came unexpectedly, she said, and there was no time to announce it.So we left for Paris around 10:00 p.m. that day and arrived the next morning. It was a long flight, but I was excited to fly for the first time. It was beautiful to see the nature of things from above, though I was scared at first until Jackson reassured me that I would enjoy it.When we arrived, a chauffeur greeted us and immediately loaded our belongings into the car. I was exhausted from the long journey, so I dozed off throughout the drive until Jackson woke me up and inform
Salvador Epiphora"How did Camilla reclaim her belongings?" I can't believe everything falls apart so quickly after everything I've done, including the money I've spent, vanishes into thin air. Camilla lacks the courage to pull that taunt." I told my gang."Who provided them with the information?" I questioned them, and non of them respond. "Goddammit, I'm so going to kill someone here right now, who spilt out the information," I exclaimed, enraged.Pablo called "Boss." "Please don't tell me it was you," I pleaded angrily."I...im sorry_," he was still saying when I shot his left ears; that was a sign to cut to the chase and stop the fucking apologies.As he fell to his knees in agony, blood dripped from the left side of his ear. " You'd better speak up right now if you want to stay alive," I yelled, He should have known better than to cross the line. Despite Knowing the fact that I hate betrayers."She told me she was down and needed to get
I was bored at home and needed to get some fresh air; Jackson was not available to assist, so I took my car key and drove out of my apartment.I drove to the old man's cottage and exhaled a sigh of relief when I got out of the car."I'm home, old man," I said as I took off my shoes."Cynthia," he exclaimed, surprised."Yes, old man, you're always surprised to see me," I say as I raise my brows."It's simply overwhelming to see you all the time. You never forget about me, even if you're living better out there and always feel more at ease here "he said, and I dashed over to hug him, calming him down."I will never forget you, old man, and I will be eternally grateful to you."I kissed his cheeks and said."I hope you don't beg on the street again, old man." I had enquired."It's difficult to stop Cynthia," he said quietly."Old man,""I'm already addicted," he admitted to me."It's okay, I won't blame
I can't believe I did what Henry advised me to do: I said they should freeze Cynthia Delacruz's account if she used any of my banking services. That way, I'll be able to see her again. I also request that her information be sent to me via email after it has been frozen; hopefully, she still lives in Mexico City."Come in," I mumbled as I heard the doorbell ring.Clara entered, "Sir, you have a visitor at the door," she said."Do I have a meeting with the person?" I inquired."No, sir, but someone has asked to see you.""You know what to do with anyone who wants to see me without an appointment. Get lost now "I said as I drew my tie-down."I'm sorry, sir," she apologized as she stormed out of the office. She believes I will be gentle with her because I have allowed her to have her way.I finished a meeting and returned to the office a few hours later. The image of the girl in red flashed through my mind, and I couldn't help but feel a
I hissed in annoyance as I exited the bank and drove my car out. How fucking dare that scumbag freezes my account without remorse; he had better fix it before I do something worse.I drove faster at high speed. Hoping I don't get into an accident. I'll just end up dying in regret because I didn't fulfil my fathers' wishes. That jerk will not be the end of me. I thought he was a nice guy; I couldn't believe I fell for his blue eyes; if only he knew how much I despised him; he should be grateful I didn't punch that cute face of his.Why did I find him attractive in the first place? Before horning at Jackson House's gate, I cringe at the thought. . After the security guard opens the door, I drive-in. I park in the front, ignoring the parking space, and walk into the living room.My nostrils were welcomed by the good aroma that came from the kitchen, and I couldn't help but walk into the kitchen, where Jackson was busy cooking."You should have opened a resta
Santos Torialba"Follow them and make sure they don't notice you're following them," I told my driver."All right, sir," he said as he drove out of the street as Cynthia walked away.Dammit, I want to know everything about her; I can't believe she pointed a gun at me last night; I was stunned, and now I'm curious what triggered Cynthia's defensiveness."We've arrived," said Robert, my driver.I watched as they exited the car and walked into the building hand in hand. The house was unfinished, but the amusing part is that it burned down completely. I asked my driver to follow them inside without being seen and gather information for me.He reappears a few minutes later. "What exactly happened there?" I had enquired."It appears that her house was burned down some years ago, and after identifying a family photo, she completely breaks down." He elaborated."Wait, what could that be?" When I saw them come out of the building, I ask
Six years laterLove is the condition in which another person's happiness is essential to your own, and in the end, the love you take equals the love you make. It is when the happiness of another person is more important than your own because they mean a lot to you, and in the end, the love you take equals the love you make.Since it was the weekend, I was busy doing something in the room while Santos worked in his system. When the twins, Aiden and Juliet, called out to me, "Mummy, what is this use for?" And when I turned around, I saw the twins holding a gun.I yelled, "Aiden, drop it!" "It's in our Aunty's textbook, Mummy," Juliet stated. And I put down the file I was working on and turn to face the twins. "A gun is used to protect ourselves, but it can also be used to kill someone," I explained to the four-year-old twins."Wow, mummy, I'd like to use it one d
Flashback Three days priorAt midnight, I couldn't sleep because my mind was so preoccupied with what was going to happen. I kept tossing on the bed until a phone call jolted me out of my reverie."How are you, did you find him?" I requested that I pick up Santos' phone call right away."Calm down, babe, we just got him out, and we're on our way to the hospital; he passed out immediately after we rescued him because of the shock." He stated."Just give me the address and I'll be right there," I said."Don't worry, babe, it's already past 2 a.m., you should wait until daybreak," he suggested, but I insisted, "it will be dangerous." He added"I can handle that; just send me the address," I said as I hung up the phone.The message had already beeped by the time I got dressed. After getting dressed, I grabbed my phone and car key and dashed o
SalvadorAfter they kidnapped the old jerk, I made certain he was held captive in an unexpected location. Allow him to be dumped inside for a while. Until that girl either return my drug or gives me money.I had nothing left because I had sold everything to repay the loan. Only my secret account is left, which I don't want to touch for the time being; let's see how this ends first.After the meeting, I returned to my office and was preoccupied with how to simply finish that girl who dared to come within me and my properties. Cynthia already had a death wish, so I'm only going to leave her for a few days until she returns my drugsDaniel entered the office and informed me of the Gala night that will take place today. I'm not going to embarrass myself. I had to be there to save my life; after all, even without the money, I'm a billionaire.No one will ever be able to compete with me because I am already so far ahead.For me, getting horny has
When we got closer to his mansion, we saw cars coming out of the gate. "He should be on his way to the party already," Veronica said."How do we get inside now without raising an alarm from this security outside?" I asked."There is an underground at the back that is used for urgent alerts, which can be used to escape in case something happens. And since no one knows about it, I am sure there won't be any guard surrounding the place." Mr Jay said."This is perfect, let me park the car at the back. So we can get in." I said. I made sure I hid the car under the tree that was across.We got down with our backpack on our back and Mr jay led us through the underground. It was so dark that we could not see even a thing from the inside as there was no hole to bring out the light.After we got into the house, Veronica started checking for the location. And was directing us. We stopped right at the corne
I was simply in my office, going through the file of previous investments and the one Jackson proposed for the future. My phone rang, and after checking the ID, I was surprised to see Veronica calling; we had only been on the phone for a short time. Perhaps she's already missing me"Hello," I said after answering the phone."Cynthia, you need to come here right away; I have something to tell you." After I agreed to meet her soon, she said goodbye and hung up the phone.I'm curious what happened to Veronica; she appears to be upset; what could be the problem? I thought as much before picking up my car key. I hope everything is fine with her though I am already worried."Alex report to Jackson's office, I will take my leave for a while," I said and took my jacket and left for my car.In a situation like this, I always get nervous and prefer to drive myself. Others won't put a lot of speed the way I want it to.I got into the
SantosInside the jet, I was worried and had no shoulders to lean on; only if Clara didn't try that nonsense with me, only if Cynthia didn't witness the scene, I hope deep within her that she will trust me even for a single time not to have anything to do with Clara when she is with me.My chauffeur was already waiting for me when I arrived. Following our pleasant conversation, he led me to the car, and I directed him to take me directly to the hospital. Even though it was past midnight, I couldn't relax because I needed to see my mother first.After inquiring about the room when we arrived at the hospital, i went directly o the room.I saw my stepbrother at the entrance of the room with teary eyes and immediately our eyes met, he came forward and embraced me, his tears kept falling on my shirt and I expected the worst to come out of his lips."What happened to
SantosI was devastated as soon as I got home. I couldn't bear the thought of my baby going through any hardship while I stood there watching; Salvador had indeed crossed the line that was forbidden for him. I don't want to have anything to do with the mafia or even use our secret army, but seeing Cynthia in that condition made me want to go to Salvador and end his life.How could he be so evil as to threaten an elderly man who has nothing to do with him? I brush my hair irritably and take out the phone. I couldn't imagine what Salvador would have done to the man by this point.The look of sadness on my baby's face when her old man mentioned death was unfathomable. I can't let anything happen to him because I'll always blame myself for Cynthia's grief.I dial Denton's number, and after several attempts, he answers. "Hello, man. I'm sorry I was in the bathroom when you first called." He s
I lead her into the house and show her every room before escorting her to her room."Oh my goodness! How did you make this happen?" Surprisingly, she inquired. "I'm so overwhelmed right now that I can't thank you enough; this is truly a dream come true for me. Thank you very much "She said this as she approached me and hugged me."I'm glad I was able to fulfil your mother's wish. Despite the fact that she was not close to you, she was aware of everything you liked and disliked, from your meal to what you wore. On her behalf, I would like you to forgive your mother for everything she has ever done to you, believing it was done with the sole intention of caring for you." I stated."I'll think about it," was all she said before re-inspecting the room. I'd make certain that everything with technologies was perfect for her, and I'm glad she enjoys it."Thank you so much, Cynthia, I appreciate everything you've done for me," she said, her eyes welling up, and I
I could smell the new drugs we got as soon as I walked into the warehouse. I've already asked them to package and ship it to our customers across the country."This is just the beginning of Salvador's downfall, as I swear," I told Jackson."Sure, we're going to make him beg for his death very soon," he added, and I nodded before tasting the cocaine for myself."This is really good," I said."I'm sure he's gone insane by now; it's a shame he also lost his largest warehouse." I scoff."By now, he should be miserable and murdering his members.""That's perfect for him. "I'm going to leave now," I said."Of course, boss!" "Would you like to go see him?" He makes a lighthearted remark."You've begun," I chuckle."Oh yes, I miss you, I miss us," he said, and I felt bad; I had been a little distant from him, after meeting Santos and the boss' sudden death, and everything affected me badly, and I couldn't help myself."I'
