All Chapters of The Mafia and The Billionaire : Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

THIRD PERSON POV "Let's continue walking, sir. The car is ready," Maria said, and they began walking. However, Kalixo couldn't shake off what he had just heard. His breathing became heavier. "Not only that, sir, but Madam's parents were almost in an accident as well." "What the f*ck, Maria??!!!" Kalixo's voice echoed loudly as they stepped out right in front of the mansion. Maria took a deep breath. "Luckily, my guards intervened just in time. And all of these were orchestrated by the Ferrers, sir. They killed your secretary because she accidentally overheard Zero Ferrer talking on the phone about the Mafia. Your secretary's life was threatened. When we found her body, she had a resignation letter soaked in her own blood. I managed to retrieve it, and it contained the information she overheard, but unfortunately, the crucial parts were already stained with blood." In frustration, Kalixo yanked at his hair upon hearing the details. The flow of bloodshed was imminent. The inevitable

FELICIA POV The night arrived, and Kalixo and I returned to the island. We continued to fish as he had promised. Kalixo gathered wood from the forest, while I picked fruits and placed them in a basket. I took a piece of cloth to lay on the ground, where we sat and gazed at the beautiful night sky, full of stars and the shimmering moon. I wondered why there were no guards tonight. "Where are your men?" I asked, settling onto the cloth. Kalixo, now tending to the wood he had gathered, arranged them as if we were setting up camp. "I sent them away because they have important tasks. I had some orders for them." I nodded. As the wood caught fire, Kalixo skewered the five fish he had caught and placed them by the flames. Then he sat beside me, took fruits from the basket, handed me an apple, and took one for himself. I smiled. "It's amazing and kind of surprising. Seeing you being like this," I took a bite of my apple. "And somehow, having a camping trip with apples. Don't you have mars

THIRD PERSON POV "Pa?!" Kalixo looked at the number he had called once more. It was the number of one of his trusted men. But? "Pa?! Dad, someone's chasing me! They're killing innocent people here. I just don't know if it's the Ferrers who are responsible because they harbor deep anger toward us—" "I sent them," his father's simple statement. "Dad, come on. No jokes—" "Kalixoooo!!!!" Kalixo's eyes widened upon hearing Felicia's scream on the other end of the line. He could hear his father cursing and a loud slap. It seemed like his father had hit Felicia. "Dad?! Dad, what's happening—" "Join my men if you don't want something to happen to the woman you love." Shit! What the heck is happening?!!! "Dad?! What are you talking about?!" "Join us or I'll kill Avimayor?!" 

FELICIA POV I opened my eyes, dark embraced me. Where am I?! I tried to stood but my head bumped into something. "Aww!" If it didn't happened, I wouldn't know how hurt my head is. "What the hell?!" My head felt like was about to explode. I tried to touch my forehead, but to my surprise, a sticky liquid made my chest dive into horror. I remember the car accident. My hands started to tremble in fear upon seeing how the truck immediately struck our car.  I spread my hands to try feeling my surroundings. When I felt a bit warm walls. What is this? I touched the ceiling. . . It opened!  I pushed it upwards, however, a sound of gunshots made me crook back to my place. Is this. . . I'm inside the trashbin?!  Gunshots. . .  Gunshots! Why am I here? Who put me inside? What are those gunshots?! Who is?!— 

FELICIA POV We arrived at what they called the Palace. It's massive compared to the mansion Kalixo has on the island.The car circled around a grand fountain. Despite the late hour, the surroundings weren't dim due to the numerous lights. Different hues of red, blue, and white danced within the fountain, creating a mesmerizing sight.We stepped out of the car... or rather, I was practically dragged out. "Ouch, what the heck!" I complained. I'm starting to lose my patience.My whole body ached, and the throbbing was intensified by the heat in my head! Calm down, Felicia, just calm down. Their time will come. Hold back for now. Endure it, for now.There's a slight chill in the air outside now. The night is getting deeper.There were numerous people surrounding the area. Looking up from below, I examined the height of the balcony, still guarded. None of them wore masks, unlike Kalixo's men, this old man, and Ferrer's. Whose men were those earlier, chasing after me? They're definitely no
