Chapter 21.Lucas Gambino's PovFury consumed me upon learning of Shirley's escape. It felt as though I had been deceived, but it was painfully clear that my loyal crew, especially Cleo, would never dare to play games with me. He simply wouldn't stoop to such levels.I could only blame myself for not being astute enough to anticipate her plans. The signs were all there, trying to guide me, but I foolishly ignored them.The self-blame intensified as I recalled the unsettling intuition I had when she made her request. It provided a clue, but I chose to ignore it, and now she has vanished into thin air.The rage within me was uncontrollable, evident in the fire that blazed in my eyes. I even contemplated dismissing everyone from the club, consumed by anger. However, the thought of losing money, something I hold so dear to heart and couldn't afford to lose, restrained me. The pain of Shirley's escape, taking my hard-earned cash with her, was already driving me insane. How could I bear los

Chapter 23Lucas Gambino's PovThere I was, seated in the living room as I critically looked into the documents before me. I could tell that I was in no way paying attention to them but had no choice. Business first!My stay at the strip club could only add up to my rage. I couldn't tell if I should get mad at myself over letting Shirley do as she had desired. There was no time for regrets, I certainly know that I will find her irrespective of where her hideout could be.Deep within me, I was burning in rage while I awaited a positive feedback from Fernández and the men hoping it doesn't happen that Shirley has successfully escaped. The update I patiently awaited was to be something I could take.I had put down the documents because they bored me. I needed to do something that could take away time without being bored, so I turned on the television and had my eyes fixed on it. Entertainment could possibly help me exercise some Patience.“What do you plan to do if you don't find her?” I

Chapter 25Shirley's PovAs soon as I got into the apartment, I looked around and confirmed it was secure. The hideout seems to be a perfect place.“A nice place you've got” I compliment as a frown suddenly bounced on my face. I could feel a swing of my mood, unable to tell what next my focus should be.Felix offered me a seat and headed to the kitchen to get something we could eat but my saddened heart couldn't help the burden I felt. Just then, I sighted a mirror which was highly decorated with colorful bulbs surrounding it. It caught my attention and drew me closer to itI sat down In Front of a mirror, looking closely at my own image. A blade shone to my eyes as soon as I looked beneath the table. Having a check, it was a barbing blade. I could tell there was more that is contained in the carton underneath the table. Checking through, I sighted a clipper which I picked up. An idea popped up immediately. I just find myself seated before the mirror with the clipper in my hands, sta

Chapter 27Kendra's PovUpon my arrival into the country, I looked around, scrutinizing and immediately noticed a significant change in the surroundings. The place looked completely different from what I remembered. Not giving much of my will to figure out its changes, I looked around with a smile on my face. It had been a long time since I left the country, and now my arrival was something I could proudly boast about.“I have arrived…” I stated in composure as I took in the fresh air, exhaling slowly. It was as though it was going to take forever to return. My thoughts revolved around the handsome young man I had left behind, Lucas Gambino. I couldn't help but exaggerate.“Ma'am” A guard of mine offered, stretching his hand towards me. He was actually giving a helping hand to help me get up so as to leave the plane immediately. The warm smile I had on could denote a bossy reaction. I was highly pleased to see how things were going. This was the kind of treatment that royalty like mys

Chapter 29Kendra's PovFernández stared at me intently through the center mirror, his eyes fixed on me. I couldn't understand why he was behaving so strangely. All I had done was ask a simple question, and now he was acting suspiciously."Why did you suddenly stop the car like that? What if there's an accident? How will you explain it to your boss and my dad? Don't you realize the danger you're putting us in?" I shouted, my voice reaching its highest pitch. I couldn't make sense of his intentions."I'm sorry for that, but why worry about nothing ma'am? You have nothing to be concerned about, Miss Kendra. The boss is just busy. There's no reason to be suspicious," he replied.His response seemed more appropriate, but it was clear that he had rehearsed it beforehand, as if something shady was going on. I couldn't shake the feeling that there was more to this than meets the eye."You told me not to be suspicious, yet you yourself seem suspicious," I countered.He scoffed and nodded, but
