Promised to a Ruthless Mafia Chapter 49
Atasha's POVWhen Mr Lim was gone we decided to head home.Conrad is the one driving while I am sitting in the passenger seat, eyes focus in front.I didn't bother to open any topic because I am still in the middle of absorbing everything the Hudson's told me.Hours had passed but I can't still get it off my head.In my peripheral vision, I can see Conrad stealing glances at my side."Is something wrong?" he asked after a while.I looked at him then shook my head and flashed a small smile."I'm just tired," I repeated the same excuse I used earlier.Conrad let out a deep breath then reached for my hand and gently squeezed it.He didn't say anything, he just held my hand until we reach his condo and that is what I needed.Feeling the warmth of his hands is better than hearing comforting words from him because I might doubt his words...I might think he is lying.Conrad open the door for me and after that, we headed inside.We walked in the dark hallway and the only sound that I can hear

Conrad's POVI stared at Atasha's face intently. She is peacefully sleeping in my arms. After a while, her eyes opened and she stared at me intently probably wondering who I am but when she finally figured out a smile appeared on her lips."Good morning," I greeted then planted a soft kiss on her lips. Atasha's smile grew wider."Good morning," she greeted back.We stared at each other faces for a few seconds but after a while, she pushed me away and run towards the bathroom.My forehead creased, confused about what just had happened.I followed Atasha towards the bathroom but the door is locked after a while I heard her vomiting.Fear consumed me so I knocked harder and a sigh of relief escaped from my mouth when Atasha open the door and faced me.I cupped her face and examined her. Atasha looks pale, her face became paper white and cold sweat are forming on her forehead."Are you okay?" I asked with my voice filled with worry.Atasha smiled at me weakly then nod her head."I feel na

Atasha's POVI didn't go to work just like Conrad wanted. "Are you sure you don't want to get checked?" he asked for the nth time.I let out a deep breath to calm myself then shook my head."I'm fine," I responded then leaned on the chair while he is busy cooking our breakfast."I'm almost done," he said and after a while, the smell of garlic reeked in the kitchen. I immediately covered my nose because of the strong smell then after a while I decided to run towards the bathroom when I can no longer take it."Atasha!" I heard Conrad calling me but I ignored him.After a few seconds, I heard loud knocks on the door."Atasha what's happening?" he asked in a tone filled with worry.I kneeled on the bathroom floor and then held the bowl tightly as I vomit."Open the door, love," he begs.I sigh then reached for the tissue to wipe the side of my lips.When I regained my strength I stood up and open the door for him."That's it I am taking you to the hospital," he said then held my wrist an

Conrad's POVAs I kneel on the cold floor I now realized everything my father has said to me...love is indeed a weakness but I am not regretting anything.I held Atasha's hand tightly and look at her directly in the eyes desperate to convince her to keep our child."I already told you I don't want a child," she firmly said as if she already decided everything.I aggressively shake my head. Tears fell from my eyes. I feel like I am losing all my strength."How about me Atasha? That is also my child, you can take away my right," I said. Atasha looked at me coldly and those stares scared the hell out of me.This is the first time I hate looking into her eyes."You want this child to live?" she asked looking at me in disbelief."And then what? Teach him/her how to use guns? Force him/her to live in a world filled with cruelty? You can't even get me out of this life. Don't you think you are being selfish if you drag this child to this hellish world just to be with us?" those words slap me

Atasha's POVI looked at Conrad's face intently. He remained poker face refusing to show any kind of emotions which made everything even harder."Do you have a warrant?" he asked turning his head to the police I am with.The police fell silent. They looked at one another which simply implies that they don't have a warrant for arrest."You are the last person seen with Ruby Taylor which makes you the primary suspect. You have to come with us for further questioning," the police almost the same build as Conrad spoke.Conrad looked at me once again."I'm innocent," he coldly uttered not to defend himself from the police officer but from me.I looked away when I can no longer hold the intensity of his stare."The court will decide whether you are innocent or not Mr Sawyer," said the officer and after that it was followed by silence.When I turned my head on Conrad he is still looking at me intently and the way he stares made me even more nervous.After a while, he looked at the police off

Atasha's POVGrace let me spend a night in her unit but my body refuses to take a rest.Lots of questions runs through my head so I quietly stepped out of Grace's unit.I headed towards the parking lot and stepped inside my car. I have one place inside my mind, the morgue where Ruby's body was brought.Ruby's body was taken to Hudson Hospital so I won't have a hard time getting inside.When I reached the hospital I bumped into Sebastian in the hallway."What are you doing here?" he asked completely confused because my shift already ended."I need to see Ruby's body," I responded, straightforwardly.Sebastian looked at me intently then shook his head."Immediate family are the only people allowed to see Ruby's body, I am sorry but you can't step inside the morgue Atasha," he said and he was about to walk away when I held his arms firmly."I need to see Ruby's body Sebastian or at least let me see the bullet found in her body," I uttered firmly."Your husband asked you to do this?" he a

Conrad's POVI looked at her intently and when she nodded her head I was shattered into pieces.I smiled bitterly then looked away suppressing my tears. I don't want to beg again. I am tired of kneeling in front of her just to make her stay. I am tired of doing everything and then receiving rejection in the end."You will keep your promise right? You will keep our child?" I asked then looked her directly in the eyes.Atasha looked at me intently and then nod her head."I will," she said.I let out a deep breath to calm myself."Pack all your things. Don't leave anything. When I came back I hope you are already gone," I said then walked away and stepped out of my unit.I headed towards the parking lot and after stepping inside my unit the tears that I had been suppressing earlier fell like waterfalls.I punched the steering wheel to release my frustration and after a while, I started the engine and pulled my car from the parking lot and started driving without any direction inside my

Atasha's POVLoud knocks outside the door of my mother's room woke me up from deep sleep.I opened my eyes then walked towards the door and upon opening it I saw Sebastian wearing his lab coat."What are you doing here?" I asked completely confused because it is still early for him to be home, I doubt his duty already ended."You have to leave Atasha," my forehead creased when I heard those words from him.I stared at his face completely confused."Why?" I asked."Members of inexorable vis are looking for you and it won't take long before they discover that you are staying at this mansion so you have to leave...away from here," he said."Dad's chopper will land at the helipad in a few minutes. Pack everything that you need then head straight to the rooftop," Sebastian said.I did everything that he told me. When I am done packing all the things that I will be needing I followed him to the rooftop and when I arrived a chopper is already waiting for me."Dad is waiting for you at the se

Atasha's POVAfter sending the kids to school, Conrad drove me to the hospital and before I stepped out of his car I stared at his face with a smile plastered on my lips."Good luck with your presentation Love," He smiled at me and reached for my hand. He planted a soft kiss on it and stared at my eyes intently."Thank you Love. I'll do good, I'll make you and the twins proud,"I squeezed his hand and shook my head. "You already made us proud, you don't have to prove yourself to us just do your best,"I saw how his lips stretched for a wide smile and it warms my heart to see worry slowly leaving his face. "I don't know what I would do without you Atasha," he whispered as he pulled me into a tight hug.We were having an intimate moment when a knock on the car window interrupted us.Upon turning my head I saw Grace's face on the window, trying to see what was inside."Your friend is so nosy," Conrad jokingly commented which made me smile."She is," I replied agreeing to what he said.I

Atasha's POVWe spent a few hours at the water, and when the sun became scorching hot, we decided to head back to our cottage and take a rest.Conrad and I prepared our lunch together.We opted to grill some meat for our meal, and once we were done, we settled around a small table, enjoying the breathtaking view."I wish we could have stayed here forever," Alison commented, which brought laughter from all of us."Can we build a small house here, Mom?" Asher asked, his unspoken desire evident. I knew he loved it here as well."Your Dad and I will discuss it," I replied, glancing at Conrad. As our eyes met, he smiled warmly at me."I'll start saving money for your dream beach house," he proclaimed, eliciting smiles from the kids."I want my room to be all pink, Dad. I'll make curtains out of shells. It'll be so cute," Alison chimed in, her excitement evident as she talk about her dream room.Conrad smiled at Alison and nodded."We'll make that happen," he assured her.After our satisfyi

Conrad's POVI woke up at four in the morning and quickly took a shower. When I stepped out of the bathroom, Atasha was already awake, rubbing her eyes as if she had just woken up."Good morning," I greeted her.Atasha's gaze wasn't fixed on my face but on my body. A smirk spread across my lips as I walked towards her. She seemed frozen in place.I stopped in front of her and held her chin, making our eyes meet."Eyes up here, love," I said, noticing the embarrassment on her face. She slapped my hand away and pushed me aside before getting up.She was about to walk towards the bathroom, probably to escape from me, but I held her hand to stop her and hugged her from behind.Atasha stayed still as I hugged her tightly."Conrad, I can feel something," she said, making me laugh.Atasha turned around and looked directly into my eyes."Sorry, it's morning," I apologized.Atasha looked at me intently, then lowered her gaze, and I felt a bit embarrassed when I saw her eyes fixed on my member.

Atasha's POVWhen the kids disappeared from our sight, Conrad let out a deep sigh, and I gently caressed his shoulder to ease the heaviness he felt inside.Conrad looked at me, and I smiled back at him."I'll sleep here," he said."Okay," I replied, as he always sleeps here anyway."I'll just get a few things from my unit," he added, and I nodded, walking him out of the house.I watched him step inside his car. Before driving away, he rolled down his window and looked at me."I'll be back, love. I love you," he said, and I couldn't help but smile upon hearing those words."Drive safely. I love you," I reminded him, and his smile grew wider as he nodded at me before driving away.A huge smile remained on my lips as I watched Conrad's car slowly disappear from my view.I was so focused on his car that I didn't notice Grace standing by my side.She elbowed me, causing me to flinch."Shit, you scared me!" I blurted out, holding my chest in shock at her sudden appearance."What's with the

Conrad's POVWe settled around the table, trying to create a sense of togetherness. However, my attempts to catch the kids' attention were in vain—they kept avoiding me, refusing to even make eye contact. "Your pasta tastes good, Conrad," Dad commented, bringing a smile to my face."Thank you, Dad," I replied, then turned my gaze towards the twins."After we finish eating, would you like to watch a movie?" I asked, patiently awaiting their response."We already watched a movie with Grandpa, right Asher?" Alison chimed in, looking towards her twin.Asher nodded his head in confirmation."We also have to take a nap," he added."How about we go to the park after your nap?" I suggested, but they both shook their heads simultaneously."It's drizzling," Alison explained, returning to her pasta.I let out a deep breath, feeling defeated as I couldn't come up with another idea to make it up to them.I felt Atasha's hand holding mine, so I looked at her and she smiled, causing me to smile bac

Atasha's POVI watched as Conrad knelt in front of Alison, filled with guilt evident in his tone."I'm sorry," he uttered, his voice laced with remorse.Alison continued to cry, so Asher pulled her into a tight hug and glanced at his father."You always let us down, Dad. Uncle Sebastian is a better father than you. He made time for Alison's recital, even though he was busy treating sick people. I wish he were our Dad, not you," Asher said, his gaze fixed on Conrad."Asher, don't speak to your father like that," I firmly interjected.Asher fell silent, taking deep breaths to calm himself."It's fine, Atasha," Conrad assured me, forcing a smile on his lips.Conrad attempted to hold Alison and Asher's hands, but they kept removing his grasp, distancing themselves from him.Conrad let out a deep breath, tears glistening in his eyes.He swallowed hard and forced another smile."Daddy will make it up to both of you, I promise. Do you want ice cream? Shall we go to the mall? Would you like n

Conrad's POVI drove towards my office after dropping Atasha off at the hospital.The moment I stepped inside my office, I immediately went to my secretary to check my schedule. I had a dinner meeting later, so I informed Atasha that I wouldn't be home early.Coming home late seemed to be my routine for this month and possibly the following month. I had to work extra hard to regain everything that the company had lost.I started signing the documents and lost track of time. My secretary brought me lunch, so I took a quick break and called Atasha while I ate.After a few rings, she answered the call."Have you had your lunch?" I asked, hearing the twins in the background."Yeah, we're at a restaurant right now having our lunch. I'm with the twins. Do you want to talk to them?" she asked."Yes, please," I said, and after a few seconds, I heard Alison's voice fill my ears. "Hi Daddy," she greeted happily."Hi, baby. Are you eating right now?" I asked."Yes, Dad. I ordered pasta, and I w

Atasha's POVConrad embraced me tightly. I could sense that something was troubling him, but I didn't want to pressure him into opening up to me. Perhaps he needed time to figure things out on his own, so I would give him that time and patiently wait for him to share his burdens with me.I rested my head on his chest and let myself drift off to sleep.The next morning, I woke up to the sound of the twins knocking on our door. When I looked beside me, Conrad had just woken up as well. He rubbed his eyes and walked towards the door. As he opened it, the twins came running towards the bed."Good morning, Mommy," they greeted, showering me with kisses."What about Daddy?" Conrad asked, his jealousy evident in how the children greeted me.I laughed when I saw him pouting his lips while looking at the twins.The twins laughed at his expression and then stood up to give their father a tight hug."Good morning, Daddy," they greeted in unison, kissing their father on the cheeks.Conrad smiled
