All Chapters of Entangled With The Mafia Boss: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Alex POV,It was obvious that the tension of Lucita's sudden appearance still hung in the air, neither Jericho nor I said a word when he walked in. Just brief glances and that was all.However, I listened keenly as he instructed the guys over the phone to bring Lucita down to one of the cabins. I had followed him when he walked out of the office. I did it on impulse, more like I trailed after him. Granted, I knew Jericho wasn’t going to do anything silly with that girl, perhaps it was only vital that they really meet up and talk things through but my gut feeling strongly believed that the meeting might turn out to be disastrous—to Jericho marriage’s with Leia that is. Even as an innocent girl back then, Lucita had always had this enchanting spell on Jericho and he’d never resisted. Now that she's back with a venomous demeanor and unclear motives, she’d definitely make advances that could sway Jericho.Afterall it’s obvious she didn’t come for Good, I can just feel it in my gut. I

Jericho’s POVLeia didn’t need to act infuriated for me to see how wrong the picture was. She kept her gaze on the road through her side of the window, not sparing me a glance, and the silence killed me. When I couldn’t hold it in anymore, I had to ask. “Are you okay?” I inquired and what I got was a shrug. “Just tired after I had to look everywhere for you.”“Oh sorry about that__ I just__”“You haven’t been seeing your ex, have you, Jericho?” She attacked me before I had a chance to finish talking, as she tore her eyes off the road and that landed firmly on me. For a second, words evaded my lips, but after some time, I found them. “Of course not” I forced a stifled smile and watched as she nodded slowly. The rest of the drive was quiet. None of us said a word until I dropped leia off at our apartment. After dropping her off, I took on the tradition of ordering our food over. We had avoided the family dinner since her pregnancy made her nauseous. I already had the phone in my ha

Jericho’s POVWe ended up shopping for nothing. I did not think straight when I decided to go shopping for baby things. I just wanted to surprise Leia, I had totally forgotten about the baby's sex.I thought they used to discern early at the hospital but Leia said it was way too early. She is just one month gone. I chuckled sheepishly as the car came to a screeching halt. Since we did not do the necessary shopping, I had only a few bags of toys to carry. I had given out most of the free toys. I fixed the shopping bags in my hands and held them firmly leaving Leia with nothing to carry. Although she wanted to help, I was particular about her hurting her back. Carrying groceries was very far from something that could hurt her back and if she told me that now, that would be the umpteenth time she would be telling me something like that. I dropped everything on the sofa, kissed her on the cheeks and made my way back to the door. “You are leaving already?” I heard her ask when I had alr

Alex’s POV, -Dallas-“You didn’t even ask about the bidding at the casino and the shipments too.” I said to Jericho as I walked the long distance to the garage where we’d had guards waiting for us with the cars in Dallas.Honestly, I did not believe Jericho would ditch the arrangements we had for anything. We had agreed that while I oversee the dissemination of the consignment, he will fix the paperworks and reports from our different units back in Italy. We had the intention to head down to Dallas in time. We were supposed to meet a new client but Jericho screwed things up. He didn’t pick my calls and when he finally did, he asked me to take care of everything on my own like who the hell does that? “I know the highest bidder claimed it and you wouldn’t be so daft to give it out at a cheap rate. Also I know the shipment delivery went smoothly and the paperwork? You’ve always been good with it. So, I am rest assured and I’m proud of you!” He gave me a bro punch on my shoulder and I

Lucita's PovKnowing I still have the same effect I once had on Jericho was too good to behold. I had thought I would have to try hard to rekindle what we shared in the past but he made it so easy.Seeing his eyes flutter made me merry.The day I almost had him, I watched him struggle to break his resolve. It brought me both ecstacy and dread.It was ecstatic to watch him as he battled in between emotions but it also means he loved his wife.When I was with Jericho, it was hard to trust him. Common! He was a full blooded consigliere. He was the heir apparent of the notorious Banda Della. Girls flung themselves around him and he always had his way with them.It hurt me when I saw the restraint in his eyes, the caution as he reined in the desire to have me. He wanted me but he loved his wife.I felt somewhat jealous but it helped my resolve. I will go all the way to get back my man but tonight, I needed a break. As much as I loved staying back to do all I want to do with Jericho, I fel
