Grace's POVI woke up with a heavy banging headache, I groaned as I tried to shift from my position only to notice a big hand that wrapped itself around my waist, a large palm on my breast. I frowned, Davis? The memory of last night came rushing, making me red as tomatoes. How did I not remember that I was mad at him? All those were supposed to happen after he had begged and told me his next plan on what to do with Lydia and her pregnancy. “Shit!” I cursed under my breath, I had messed up! Whenever I saw his naked body, there was no return for me or my senses. How the hell did I let him touch me when I swore to myself to make him suffer until he took drastic measures concerning Lydia and her baby? The girl even had the audacity to come into the residence and claimed she could live there since she was carrying his heir.I suddenly pushed Davis's hand away from my body, only for him to immediately place it back on my boobs. I slapped his hand hard before quickly rolling to the edge o
Davis's POV“Fuck! I know the bitch had a hand in his death. There is no need for any argument” I said to Vincent as we both walked to my study.It's been two days since the whole incident ended, and Grace and I were okay again. We were busy preparing for Helen's birthday, Vincent was more busy than the father and the mother of the celebrant. He wants the birthday to be as perfect as possible. Helen wants it to be done first in the backyard as a pool party, then later in the mansion as an evening party. I didn't mind how many parties she wanted to do as long as she was happy. Earlier today, news came from one of my men that Jerry's body was found in a grave. The caretaker of the cemetery found the soil moist, he complained that no burial had been done there recently, so he dug the place only to find the naked man in a casket. He immediately called the police, and he was identified as Jerry. The police had come to inform me of the unfortunate events, as Jerry happened to be the face
Davis's POVDavis's POVGrace walked gracefully into the study, her eyes were fixed on me. A wide smile plastered on her face. I watched as she carried a bag along with her. She had complained that she wanted to go and get some things in the mall. Because of the police who had come over for their nonsense investigation earlier on, I couldn't go with her, so I asked Adrianna and a few more guards to go with her. Was she here to show me what she bought at the mall?Slowly, the more she got closer to me, the more her face formed into a frown, making me swallow hard.“Davis, why is the office smelling of cigarettes?” She asked, sniffing some more. “Ah, that's Vincent. He was smoking. I warned him, but he had grown wings, and he no longer listens to me” Grace's gaze moved from mine to Vincent, who gave her a bored look like he didn't care if she scolded him or not. I forced a smile, immediately she looked back at me. “Are you sure it was Vincent? I hardly see him smoke” She came to si
Author's POVIn a large room, sat powerful men from different cities in New York. The meeting was a secret one that was taking place in a hideout in New York. The men sat there as they discussed amongst themselves. An anonymous message was sent to all of them concerning the boss of New York, they are confused as at who had set the meeting if it wasn't Don Davis, himself.Soon, a man walked into the room wearing a black jacket and black trousers.He sat down on the chair at the very edge of the long table, before he crossed his legs on top of the table. “We are complete, yeah?” The unknown man asked, and the men in the room looked among themselves. They do not know if they were complete or not, this message was sent to a selected few powerful men in New York. “My apologies for keeping you all waiting on why you were called here, and I am also grateful for honoring my invitation” “Who are you?” One of the men asked, “What made you bold enough to send messages like that to great men w
Grace's POV“And… wow!” I exclaimed. We were at the field, Davis and l, along with Mr. Chao Lui. Alas, I had asked Davis to give him a call because this was the best time to grace him with our presence, where I did not have to pretend to be his wife.A golf ball was placed on the tee as I watched Davis move forward after Mr. Chao had played his. “Babe, this one's for you,” Davis said, making me chuckle softly. So cheesy. He didn't mind that I laughed, instead, he swung the golf ball, hitting the ball to a farther distance.“Wow! Wow!” My eyes followed the ball before a wide smile spread on my lips.“Alright, Davis, I know you were going to win me in this. Your father was good at it, so I expect nothing different” Mr. Chao said before turning to me,“Why don't you give it a try, Grace” he asked as he moved his chin, gesturing to the man beside us to give a golf club I let out a nervous chuckle, “Mr Chao, it's not like I'm turning down your request, but I haven't played this my ent
Davis's POVGrace walked away with a lady who agreed to show her around even before I agreed to be spoken to alone. I shook my head at how Grace can be so understanding… sometimes. Mr. Chao looked serious, I could tell this was strictly business, and even when it was strictly business, he still wouldn't be this serious.“I'm listening,” I said when I noticed Grace had gone far enough“A meeting was held behind closed doors a few days ago” he began,“A meeting?” I asked as I wasn't informed of any meeting. Did Vincent forget to tell me? It's Impossible to hold a meeting without the consent of the Capo.“A meeting where the Don isn't supposed to be involved or told” and my eyes darkened. Fuck!Grandfather told me a long time ago of meetings like this. He narrated one of his stories of a meeting that was held without his permission. He didn't care to know who had held the meeting and why. He went to the venue along with his men and wasted the people.“Whatever meeting is held, and the
Grace's POV“I don't understand, Davis. We only want to get a dress for Helen, why do we need this many guards?” I asked. Recently, Davis has been acting a little too overprotective, and it's pissing me off. I don't understand why we can't go to the mall without hundreds of cars following us behind and before us. It is supposed to be only Adrianna and two guards, but as of recently, I have noticed how he would want to come alone. Today, he has an important meeting he can't afford to miss, and he is sending guards “Grace, just do me this one favor without complaining,” he said to me, but I just couldn't“How? There are more than six cars here. More than twenty guards. What is going on? Is there something you are not telling me?” I squinted my eyes. Davis turned his face away, his jaw clenched. Definitely, something was wrong. Then why wasn't he telling me?“Fine, you're worried about us going out, right?” I asked and saw him nod. “Fine then. We'll just order the clothes, and they
Grace's POVThe minute Davis stepped into the house, I held him by the hand and began to pull him upstairs. Except, I couldn't escape Helen. “Daddy!” She screamed and rushed to hug him. I groaned angrily before turning away. I went back to sit on one of the couches while Davis picked Helen up.Soon, Helen was already telling her father how fast the delivery lady had come to deliver the gown to her. How she loves the gown so much and many more useless things that I couldn't help but wish she would just stop talking first. Davis, on the other hand, paid so much attention that I wonder if he wasn't tired or if he didn't have anything else he wanted to do than to listen to Helen. His eyes were fixed on Helen's lips as she spoke, and the smile never left his lips. My legs were beginning to tap on the floor and my fingers were on my lap as I was already getting impatient at the two. They didn't seem to notice my mood, and they continued to speak until Adrianna called, “Helen, come check
