The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 78~ What The Hell Was That For?
MATEOI was not a restless person.No, I was far from that. Now why on earth have I been feeling uneasy all day?I had myself convinced that it was because of how I acted out of character yesterday but even I knew that was bullshit.The only reason why I felt like this was because I knew that Clara was currently alone with Dominic and I hated that.I hated the close relationship and no matter how hard I tried to ignore it, it kept getting on my nerves. Constantly.As if I had conjured him, Dominic walked into my office with a smug look on his face.“Why are you looking at me like you know something I don’t?” I asked, struggling to keep the frown off my face.“Enough with the act, Mateo. I know you have questions for me and I’m here to answer them so ask anyway,” he replied.“I don’t have any questions for you and I would prefer it if you go back to work,” I told him but he ignored my words and sat down anyway.I sighed. “Since you seem to have so much time on your hands lately. How

CLARA“You’ve got to be kidding me, girl. Please say that this is a joke,” Lucaa begged.I shook my head and took a sip of my latte. It was decaf of course.Oh, how I missed caffeine.“I’m not kidding, Lucaa. I don’t think I want to do it,” I replied.“But that’s like the chance you have to receive free gifts. Babies aren’t cheap, you know?”I took another sip of my latte and set it on the table. “I’m well aware of that but I don’t want to take advantage of people’s generosity,” I told her.She sucked back her coffee and glared at me. “You’re not taking advantage if they really want to do it for you.”I shrugged. “Still, it still doesn’t feel right.”Lucaa sighed. “What the hell am I going to do with you?”“You have no choice but to love me forever,” I replied.“This is not the time for jokes, Clara. I’m dead serious. You need to have a baby shower.”“This is not why I asked to meet you, Lucaa. Mateo’s mom asked me about it and I want you to help me come up with an excuse so that she

CLARAIt was late afternoon before Lucaa and I said goodbye to each other at the coffee shop when I returned to the house.I was greeted by Christopher at the door.“Hi, Christopher,” I greeted.“Hello, Ms. Clara. You were gone before I had breakfast ready,” he said.I smiled at him and said, “I apologize. I had to meet with my friend at our spot.”“The coffee shop?” he inquired and I nodded. “I hope you at least got something to eat,” he added.“Yeah, I ordered a muffin with my coffee at the cafe,” I replied.Christopher shook his head. “No, that won’t do. You need more than a single muffin and I’ve got just the right thing for you.”He grabbed my hand and dragged me towards the kitchen.“Sit,” he ordered, pointing to the high stool by the kitchen island.I took a seat and asked, “Don’t you think it’s too late for breakfast?”“I know, that’s why I’m going to serve you lunch,” he replied. “You have more than just yourself to think about so you need to eat well.”“But I am eating well

MATEOThe last thing I expected was an impromptu visit from my mother.No, it wasn’t because I didn’t want to see her but more often than not, when she does things like this, it’s to tell me about her sudden bright ideas which usually consist of fundraisers and charity balls.However this time around, her bright idea was none of those. Today, she came to my office to discuss Clara and her baby.“I don’t know why you are telling me all this, Mom. Ultimately, it’s Clara’s decision,” I said.“I know but you can always convince her. It’s your baby too,” she argued.“I’m not going to force her to do something she doesn’t feel comfortable with.”“What’s there to feel uncomfortable about? It’s a baby shower, every expecting mother wants one,” she said.Except, for Clara apparently.“Then she must have a reason why she doesn’t want to have one,” I told her and she frowned at me.“Why are you acting this way? You should be trying to change her mind.”“Clara is old enough to know what she want

MATEO“Is there a reason why I need to be in this briefing?” Bruno asked.I glanced at Dominic who was sitting beside Bruno. We were currently in my office.“Would you prefer to be left out?” Dominic asked.“That’s not what I said,” he replied.“Then please, explain to us what you meant,” I said.“You sat right there merely a few days ago and accused me of being a traitor. I believe I have every right to be surprise when Dominic called me in the middle of the night to tell me that we had a field assignment,” Bruno said.“And I was told that you handled yourself quite well,” I responded.“What did you expect?” he snarled. “That I was going to let a bunch of amateurs take me out? If that was your big plan then you need to go back to the drawing board because you failed horribly.”I smiled. “Now, there’s no need to get defensive. If I wanted to kill you, I have a handgun that’ll do the job perfectly,” I told him.“Sir,” Dominic chided.“What? I’m just letting him know that I don’t need t

MATEO For the first time, I had to stoop low to listen to Dominic. Not like I never listened to his advice before, I meant on cases like this one.I couldn’t clearly tell why I was being this way towards Bruno. Not like I haven’t seen just enough to know he was on my side. But then, I just wanted to vent my anger on him. Maybe, that’s because I wanted him to see how annoying it was to suddenly hate an innocent man.But that wasn’t helping in anyway.I stared at my phone, but didn’t make a move to touch it. It was too early to give him that call, right?I’ll definitely do that later in the night.Lily walked in without knocking. I was too busy to even notice that.“Oh my gosh!” She screamed, covering her mouth with her hands. I looked at her, trying to know why she had suddenly shouted.She pointed at me, stammering like I had suddenly turned ghost. “What’s wrong, Lily?” I asked, trying not to transfer my aggression to her.“Your face, it’s burning red.” She finally spoke. “Did you ye

MATEO I sighed frustratedly. “I guess calling you here was a mistake then.”The smiled turned to a smirk. “Who said so?” I raised an eyebrow at him. “I’m quite less busy today, so I think being here is the best choice.”We sat in silence for a long time. Trust me, I wish I could smack his face a million times. He keeps getting on my nerves, giving me reasons to get annoyed even more.“If you don’t have anything to tell me, I guess you should get going now.” I told him.“Fine. I was even about to do that now.” He stood up, heading for the door. “I really need the information, Bruno.” I said, trying to be calm as possible. “I need to know what step to take next.”“And I said no, Mateo. I can’t give you the information you need right now.” He smiled. “I will definitely tell you, but not today. And not even anytime this week.”I never knew he was damn serious with his words until he walked out of my room without hesitation. I walked towards the window, watching as he stepped into his ca

MATEOI found Clara watching a show when I walked into the house.I guess she was feeling better since she wasn’t asleep like she had been the past few days.“Oh, I didn’t hear you come in,” she said when she finally noticed my presence.“I was quiet in case you were sleeping.”“Well, you didn’t need to do that. Most of the time when I fall asleep I’m usually dead to the world,” she replied.Don’t I know it?Sometimes I wished I could sleep the way she did but I guess that’s virtually impossible. I doubted she had much to worry about.“Have you had dinner?” I asked.She nodded. “Yes, Christopher fed me before he retired for the night.”“That’s good.”“Uhm… do you want me to dish out your dinner?” she asked.I shook my head. “No, I can do that myself.”“Okay, then,” she said and turned her attention back to the show she was watching.I turned to go to the kitchen but stopped in my tracks when she called for me.“Can I talk to you?” she requested.“Sure, what do you want to talk about?”

The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 121~ Trust Me, Clara. You’re In.
CLARAI stared at Lily, unsure of what to say, but I couldn’t keep quiet any longer, so I went with the first thing that popped into my head.“I don’t think you need to thank me. I haven’t done anything except take up space in here,” I said.Lily shook her head in disagreement. “That’s not true and you know it. Stop selling yourself short, Clara, and just take the credit you’re due,” she said.But that was the thing. I wasn’t due any credit. That will just make me more of a fraud.“Listen, Lily. I don’t know what makes you think I’ve done anything to make Mateo a different man since I moved in here but I can assure you that I haven’t done anything,” I told her.“The fact that you don’t see it speaks a lot about the magnitude of what you’ve done,” Lily said.“Hmmm… I really think you’re mistaken. If there’s anyone that has gained anything then it’s me. Although our situation isn’t quite conventional, Matoe gave me access to a community of people that have accepted me and my son as thei
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 120~ Do I have feelings for, Mateo?
CLARAAfter Alina left, one of the housekeepers came over to clean up the mess she had made, and Christopher was gracious enough to fix me another plate.I tried to apologize to him for Alina’s behavior towards him but he looked at me as if I was the most ridiculous being on the planet for even doing that and told me I had nothing to apologize for.The atmosphere in the house changed and became lighter. Everyone, especially the staff had been walking on eggshells since yesterday and trying their best to avoid it, Alina and I didn’t blame them one bit because I was kind of guilty of the same.However, I was grateful that I didn’t have to deal with her again. The last thing I wanted was fight a woman over a man. A man whom I wasn’t sure how he really felt about me. It would be like pouring water in a basket and expecting it to get full, a wasted effort.Now that I had my son, the last thing I wanted to do was waste my time on things that aren’t worth it. Did I have feelings for, Mateo?
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 119~ Men’s Gossip
MATEODid I leave unreasonably early for work today?Yes, I did.Was it because I was trying to avoid, Clara? As much as I’m ashamed to admit it, the answer was yes.I don’t know what came over me last night. I just blurted out that I didn’t care about the contract, which raised a lot of questions for her. These are questions that I didn’t have the answer to. So I did something I’d never done. I ran away. From a woman nonetheless.Damn, if Dominic knew about this, he was never going to let me live it down, which means he must never know. I was keeping this embarrassing bit of information to myself.The only downside to me leaving way early was I couldn’t send, Alina on her merry way but I was hoping my words sunk in well enough and she got the hell out of my house as soon as she woke up.Alina was trouble, and I wanted absolutely nothing to do with her spoiled ass. Even my mother was angry with me because of her, and I still haven’t figured out how I was going to get myself back into
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 118~ Get This Trash Out, Now!
CLARAI froze in shock at Mrs. Antonia’s words. I knew she couldn’t stand, Alina, but that was the last thing I expected her to do, and it seemed I wasn’t the only one shocked by her.“That better not be me you’re referring to as trash,” Alina said to her.“You’re the only trashy person I can see here, and it pans out because it’s the trashy ones that refuse to admit that they actually are trashy,” Mrs. Antonia fired back. “I’ve had enough of your nonsense, and since my son has failed to handle you, I don’t mind doing the job for him. You’re not welcome here.”“If anyone is unwelcome here, it would be this nobody and her kid!” Alina screamed, pointing at me. “I’m going to be your daughter-in-law. You can’t treat me like this.”“I already have a daughter-in-law, and you’re looking at her. Even if she wasn’t in the picture, there’s no way my son would ever end up with someone like you because as annoyed as I am, I like to believe that I raised him right and he can discern good from evi
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 117~ Girls Issue
CLARAMateo and I didn’t get to talk.Christopher told me that he left for work really early in the morning before any of us woke up.I was disappointed because all I could think about all night was the statement he made in his office and what he actually meant by it.I guess I’ll just have to wait until he gets back home. Luckily, I had some of mine and Ale’s clothes in Lily’s room so there was no need for me to go into the master bedroom.Alessandro was fed and bathed, looking like my little bundle of joy. It turns out that Lucaa was right, I was being paranoid for no reason. There was no way my son would be scared of me. He was literally my whole heart and even though it was too soon. He had to know that.Today, Mrs. Antonia had the bright idea to take, Ale to the park. I was against it at first because he was still so young to fully experience a kids’ park. All he was going to do there was sit in his stroller while she fawned over him.Besides, I didn’t want him to have his first
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 116~ Pissed For Her Sake.
CLARAAfter everything that happened earlier today, I had expected Mateo’s mom to ignore me because pissed was an understatement to describe how she felt or in this case, was currently feeling. To my surprise, she didn’t even going as far as moving me and Ale into her room because in her words, it was just another opportunity for her to bond with her grandchild, like she wasn’t doing enough of that already.I was also aware of the fact that Mateo was home but what I didn’t expect was him barging into his mother’s room.I couldn’t hide the shock from my face. Wasn’t he supposed to be with his girlfriend?“Don’t you know how to knock?” his mother asked. “I know this is your house but that doesn’t give you the right to barge into my room unannounced.”He didn’t respond to her slew of angry words. Instead, his eyes zeroed in on mine before he settled his gaze on me.“Can we talk?” he asked, not taking his eyes off me.“You can see that we’re busy. Why don’t you go back to your whore and
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 115~ Who’s Clara?
MATEOI walked into my room and like Lily said, found Alina lounging on my bed as if she belonged there.What’s worse, she was laying on Clara’s side of the bed and I immediately saw red. She was also on a call and the moment she saw me, had the good sense to end the call.“Hey, baby. You’re home,” she said, giving me what I’ve come to recognize as her manipulative smile.That might work for an unsuspecting idiot, but not me, and she better have a good explanation for this nonsense.“What the fuck are you doing in my room!?” I growled.She was taken aback by my tone but she recovered quickly and pasted the smile on her face again.“Come on, baby. Where else did you think I would be? And is that the way to welcome the love of your life whom you haven’t seen in a while?” she asked and I couldn’t help laughing at the ridiculousness of it all.“Did I say something funny,” she asked, looking confused.“Yeah, you did. It’s very funny of you to think that you’re welcome in my house not to th
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 114~ Alina is Here!
MATEO“Would that be all?” I asked, handing Dominic the rest of the documents.“Yes, I think we’re good for now. I’ll let you know if there are any other documents that require your attention,” he replied.“God, this is fucking exhausting,” I said.Dominic smiled. “The cons of running a mafia empire but you love it and dare I say, you’re fucking good at it,” he said.Well, I fucking knew that already. Why else would I be waging war against, Renzetti?Still, it didn’t mean that I had to like it. Running this business involved jumping through so many hoops you won’t even believe.Not to talk of having a legitimate business to act as a cover. Then, I have to run the said, legit business while also handling my other not so legit business.“Let me know once the money has been cleaned and our taxes have been handled.”“I’m already on it,” Dominic said. “When do you think we would be needing another shipment?”“Let’s hold off on that for a while. Bruno is still not back from his trip but luc
The Mafia Don's Secret Chapter 113~ Alina Campbell
LILYNo, no, no.This can’t be happening. Just when things were finally going in the right direction, Alina just had to crawl out of whatever hole she was hiding in, and now things were complicated. Worse, how the hell was I going to make this right?Wait, why did this have to be my problem?This was Mateo’s mess, and he was going to have to clean it up. I just have to limit the damage.If only Mrs. Antonia didn’t say anything when I introduced Clara as a guest, but I knew deep down that there was a slim chance of that happening.Alina was the epitome of the kind of woman she couldn’t stand and there was no way she was going to be quiet while Alina acted like the grade A bitch she was.The surprising part was how calm Clara was taking everything that was happening. I had expected her to go off on Alina, especially after the demeaning way she addressed her but she ignored her and was currently helping herself to a serving of the pasta we were all about to eat.If there was anything Al
