Alex's pov

"Let me go!" I yelled at Liya but she ignored me as she wore her clothes.

"You bitch! Who sent you to do this?" I demanded and she turned to me, crossing her arms across her chest.

"Max sent me to do this. He told me how you have been maltreating my boss. Mr. Julian is a good man to me so I'm keeping you here till Max arrives," she replied.

I was shocked. Max had the intention of killing me despite everything I had done for him. "How much did he pay you?" I asked.

She rolled eyes, disgust evident on her face. "Enough money for me to start a new life," she said.

"How much?" I insisted on knowing the actual price, she hesistated before replying.

"I was paid five hundred thousand dollars," She muttered, avoiding my gaze and I laughed.

"What is funny?" She demanded angrily. "I can pay you ten times that money, Liya. Release me and I will give you five million dollars," I said, trying to make a bargain.

Her eyes widened in surprise. I watched her as she played with her fi

    Julian's povI helped the kids to the bed and watched as they slept peacefully. My heart swelled with love for them. I kissed their foreheads leaving the room quietly. Everything was finally getting better. We were planning to leave this house tonight to Africa. Africa was our last option where we would be free from all this mafia things. "What's up?" I asked Max when I saw him pacing in the living room. "I called Liya and she hasn't been picking up her calls," he replied worriedly. "What could be the problem?" I asked and he shrugged. "Use my number to call her. Let's see if she would pick this time," I gave him my phone. He dialed her number, it rang two times before she picked. I frowned suspecting something was wrong somewhere. "Hello Liya," Max said, I could feel anger radiating off him. The line went dead immediately she heard his voice. "This fucking bitch! How could she do this?" Max yelled angrily and I rubbed my temples. "He paid her already. Alex has escaped," I said

What did you do to my daddy and Aunt Ava? Let me go!!" She yelled loudly as tears streamed down her cheeks. "Take her and tell her nanny to lock them upstairs!" I yelled at Marco and he left with her. I winced in pain as i stood up. I was shaking, I had killed Ava. It wasn't intentional, I meant to shoot Julian but she ran towards him. It was too late, there was nothing I could do to save her. Yes, I wanted to punish her for what she had done but I never thought of killing her. I still wanted Ava to be with me and take care of the kids. Tears rolled down my cheeks as I stared at her lifeless body. "Boss, are you okay?" Marco's voice pulled me out of my thoughts. I nodded, wiping my tears. "Go dispose their bodies," I said, my voice shaky.He carried their bodies and my chest tightened in anguish. The scene

I asked, there was a barrier blocking me from walking towards him."You are my mommy. Don't you remember me? It's me Aiden," he replied, trying to reach out to me. I was quiet, I had no idea who he was. Could I possibly have a son and I don't remember him? It was funny because I had no idea who I was too. Everything was strange. "Please, come and take me away from here. I don't like it in here, mommy. I don't like it here!" He yelled, tears streaming down his face and my heart broke seeing him cry.

I've been struggling to get it up," she said and I sighed, turning to her. Her back was on full display, and she pressed herself against me, making my skin crawl. "Kim, I can't get the zipper done when you are too close to me," I pointed out. She muttered an apology, shifting forward, her eyes flashing with disappointment."Done," I said after helping her. She wrapped her arms around my neck suddenly. "Julian, don't you like what you see?" She asked, licking her lips. "I don't like this. You have a husband," I replied as I pushed her away from me gently which made her frown. "Gabriel is my baby daddy not my husband. Julian, I saved your life when you were about to die. The least you can do to appreciate me is by giving me what I want," she said stubbornly. "I don't know what you want! Stop stressing me ple

We are talking about goods worth of fifty million dollars!""I'm sorry, sir. It wasn't intentional," My manager in America replied, Jude his voice trembling. "Jude, this is the second time! Goods of a hundred million dollars in a month. What the hell is wrong with you?" I demanded, anger evident in my voice. "I'm sorry sir," he repeated and I hung up. He was messing with me, there was more to this, and I would find out. I made calls to the guards over there to confirm if he truly had an accident. They promised to give me feedback in two hours. Sighing, I sipped my drink. I was tired of everything going on all at once.

I gulped it down then sighed, feeling relieved. "Who are you?" Joey asked the guy who triggered something in me."My name is Julian. I'm here with Kim and Daniel. Gabriel's family," he introduced, pointing a woman and a boy. There was silence and tension after he spoke. Julian and I locked gazes, he looked so familiar. I wondered if I knew him before. The look on his face proved something, I have to talk to him before he leaves. He could know something about me. "Please, have your seat," Jessica broke the silence and everyone sat down.

Why did the event have to take place in America? I wasn't ready to face my past again. "Baby, I know you have a lot of memories there, but we need to be there.

    Ava's povThe children problems has been a sort of headache to me and my husband. We raised them with so much love, yet the only way they could repay us was by causing trouble everywhere. "Mommy, why are they not downstairs for dinner?" Daisy asked, raising a curious brow as I set the table with the chef and my kitchen assistant. I knew she was referring to her older siblings. Diamond didn't like her that much, but she was the apple of her brother's eyes. "Can you please go and call them to come have dinner? You can tell your brother alone and he will pass the information to diamond" I asked politely. She nodded happily, running upstairs to call Aiden. Getting to know that Diasy was Julian's biological child was still a shock to me. I didn't know how that happened.

    Julian's povTen years later. The children had caused trouble again, because I didn't know why the hell I was called from my office just to get an invite from their school because of their bad deeds. I was fuming in anger when their principal was talking."Mr Black, this form of behavior is not acceptable in our school. Your son, Aiden was caught having sex with a girl in the Janitor's office while the girl, diamond almost killed a guy this morning. All in the same day! I will advise you to talk to them during this one month suspension I'm giving them," The principal said with all seriousness in her voice. I exchanged glances with them, but they only looked away in guilt. They had grown so much just to become rascals. They were just seventeen years old for goodness sake, yet they gave me headache every day. I loved them better when they were younger. How did they even become this way? Was it the money and riches that got into their head? "I'm so sorry, principal for everything th

I need to know what the fuck is going on in my house?" I demanded, taking a deep breath. Nothing again, only the sound of things moving. I got very angry, and kicked the person beside me away. Gasping when I finally saw what was happening. Julian was on one knee with a ring on his hand. I was very captivated with the way the ring glowed. It was so beautiful, and tears filled my eyes immediately. What sort of proposal was this? Julian smiled. "I'm sorry for proposing this way. I just tried to scare you a little bit but I guessed that didn't work. This is me on one knee, babe."I chuckled, wiping my tears. There were people around like Max, Kim and others we got to know here. Some decorations has also been done in like fifteen minutes. The sight in front of me was very beautiful, and I than

A new place with my man, and children. I was helping the kids arrange their things when Daniel rushed into the room. He exchanged hugs with the kids, and they were so happy to see each other. That was when I realized his mother was here. He hugged me too. I was happy to see him as well. I left the kids to do whatever they wanted, and proceeded downstairs to welcome Kim. I knew Julian wasn't happy to have her here, but I was the one that invited her. We had this plan between us, because I wanted to know if Julian truly loved me. Kim would seduce him, and we wanted to know if he would want to continue any form of relationship with her. As I alighted from downstairs, they were already having a heated conversation. Julian was so carry away, and he didn't even know I was there. "Ava, my darling fr

"They finally left, huh? How are you doing now?" She asked, raising a curious brow. I just smiled sadly, tapping the couch for her to sit.

"Why did you tell them to go watch movie, babe?" Julian asked, raising a curious brow."To keep them occupied before Max gets here. I'm going with you to see Alex," I replied with a shrug.

He worked for me now, I paid him one million five hundred thousand dollars. I now control all the affairs of Mafia in America and Mexico. The only thing I was trying to do was to stop the killings happening. A criminal can be tortured, or stripped off his properties but no body must be killed. That policy has been going on in the Mafia world in both countries. Everything has also been going smoothly. I finally got to know where Alex was, and I knew he was unconscious too. The guy turned out to be my long distance cousin, and he agreed to hand Alex to me after a lot of conversations. "I sent fifty thousand dollars into your account for the kids and yourself too.
