All Chapters of Becoming The Mafia’s Surrogate: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Mirable’s POVWho does he think he is to boss me around? I blinked repeatedly as I watched him take steps away with my phone in his possession. I could barely balance myself and it felt as if I was as light as a feather. Somehow I managed to get my butt on the bed and flung my shoes every which way.Watching my heels fly in the air was like an exotic scene, it cracked me up so much and I found tears leaking from my eyes from excessive laughter, I couldn’t control my emotions, like hell! I couldn’t control anything! My body seemed to have a mind of its own!I slumped into the bed and got comfortable at the edge. I usually can’t sleep without the quilt covering me but my bones felt heavy, the thought of raising it over me was exhausting so I just laid there. Some time later, my eyes suddenly peeled open and I found a tall man standing beside my bed.“What is this? Who is this handsome man? … is this a dream?” My silly questions made me smile sheepishly but the man of my dreams had

Rosella’s POV I didn’t sleep a wink last night, the case with Mirable kept me up so I was well aware then Donovan didn’t resign to the bedroom. I should be thrilled by this information and take the opportunity to have a good night’s rest without his overwhelming presence but the situation at hand robbed me of sleep. By first light I had jumped out of bed and prepared myself, waiting for Franklin or even Mirable to show up. This feeling was new to me, I never had someone to care for except when I was with Jake but this time it’s different, I feel like I wanna protect her from the dark world of the elite but I can’t even protect myself. How frustrating is that?I waited in vain and fell asleep in the living room, it was only when I detected footsteps that I jolted awake. “Franklin” my throaty voice called out and halted his steps. “Where is Mirable? How is she?” I eagerly pressed for an answer and I noticed a flicker of emotion flash through his eyes which was very strange. F

Rosella’s POV My breathing became haggard as inexplicable fury consumed me.“I will only ask once, delete that picture” I said through gritted teeth.His audacious expression aggravated my lividness.“You don’t seem to get it, You’re not in any position to make demands. Do as I say and hope I’m benevolent enough to delete it. Understand?”I chewed the inside of my mouth, how in the world was I ever in love with such a nuisance?!This seems to be my thing, getting associated with mentally deranged individuals!“Look here, as you know I’m nothing but a mistress to Donovan. I have no say in whatever he chooses to do. I can’t stop him! Your tricks will only negatively affect the company”“That’s not my business!” He sharply retorted and my fingers twitched. I was itching to leave my print on his face. “Find a way to stop him tonight, otherwise… we’ll make headlines tomorrow”I had my doubts regardless of his threats. There was no way he would drag his name to the pits just to punish

Mirable’s POVSo far the party has been going smoothly, I’ve taken the necessary actions to note down the reasonable potential companies that show interest in a partnership. I headed for the drink section to get a mocktail, looking back it’s a good thing I never ventured into drinking alcohol. Just one time and I’m still not done cleaning up my mess. That Mitch of a man is a handful!“What are you thinking of?”I jumped in fright, even spilling a generous portion of my drink. Has he ever heard to personal space?! I wonder. How ever did he know I was thinking of him? I turned to face him, his voice was already etched in my memories thanks to the outrageous things he said in the hospital. “So what do you say about my offer?” Oh, I felt a headache coming. These spoilt children of aristocrats don’t know when to draw the line between frivolous offers and downright nonsense! “I already gave you my answer Mr. Mitch” I adjusted my specs and walked right passed him but he was like

Rosella’s POV The fear I thought I felt earlier was nowhere near the kind I was experiencing now.The crippling feeling enveloped me and it seemed almost suffocating to breathe. I watched the two hefty men who pulled the man over, stand stiffly beside him, it was like they were robots awaiting Donovan’s orders and he was more than ready to exert dominance!“Take off the wrap”Immediately the black cloth over the man’s face was removed and tossed aside revealing his bruised cheeks and swollen eyes. My fingers subconsciously rose to my lips in bafflement. How long has it been since Jake had him take my pictures, yet in so little time the man was beaten to a pulp with a face that was barely recognizable?“Point your gun to his head” His second command forced my head to stare at him. Was this man trying to kill me of a heart attack?“Wait, don’t kill him” I said this with great difficulty. I can’t believe we’re debating about someone’s life! A man who was just some steps away fro
