All Chapters of Arranged To The Masked Mafia King : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Chapter 72Dmitri I stood in front of my penthouse, staring absentmindedly at the colorful pattern of the neatly arranged flowers that beautified the facade. My mind strayed into a deep array of thoughts as I traipsed into the house with a heavy heart. Liora dashed toward me immediately I appeared in the doorway as if she had been expecting my return. "Daddy," She screamed in excitement while I swept her off her feet and held her tightly. I'd been so engrossed with finding Ariel that I relegated my daughter to the background. It wouldn't happen again though. Once Ariel returned, I'd ensure that they would never have the chance to miss me. "Hey, baby," I pressed my lips against her cheeks and proceeded to pepper her whole face with kisses. She slid down my body and dragged me to the sofa. "Sit down, Dad. We have a lot of things to talk about but first, where's Mommy?"A knot tightened in my stomach and I looked away, unable to meet her prodding eyes. She tugged at my arm consist

Chapter 74DmitriHer head swiveled towards Guilia's direction, her eyes squinted with anger lurking behind them. "What have you done, Guilia?" She rasped, her feet slowly moving toward her in sure, terrifying steps. Guilia ducked her head and fiddled with her fingers nervously then lifted her head, glancing at me for help. When she saw that none was coming forth from me, she clasped her palms pleadingly. "Dmitri couldn't stop calling me and I saw how badly you missed him. You couldn't stop muttering his name even while asleep and that was what motivated me to call him over here," She explained. Ariel's lips moved but no words came out, instead, she clenched her fists and clicked her tongue loudly, her cheeks reddening in embarrassment. I inclined my head and pressed my lips together to keep myself from smiling though it was hard. Knowing that I was still at heart made me feel very good and the sleepless nights and endless worries that I faced were worth it. "But that isn't a st

Chapter 76ArielWe stared at each other longingly, none of us making a move even though we desired one thing—to be together. "Are you no longer interested?" I asked shyly and shifted my weight to the other foot."There has never been a time that I haven't been interested in you. I've always been drawn to you from the first time you bumped into me in front of your father's study and splashed that hot coffee on my suit," A smile crept to my face and my cheeks heated up with a blush. "I thought you couldn't stand me,""True, I couldn't stand you because you acted spoilt, but your feistiness also turned me on. And when we began to live together properly, I realized that you were more than the spoilt and superficial girl I thought you were...""I'm not superficial," I clicked my tongue and looked away. A soft chuckle emanated from his lips and he raised his hands in surrender. "I'm sorry about that. But I discovered that you had more layers that were veiled by the brattish exterior tha

Chapter 78ArielI was so sure that my eyes would fall out of their sockets if Guilia continued to throw in these huge surprises."Hold up, Guilia, you can't leave. You haven't even told Vladimir about it?" The pitch of my voice rose to a scary note that could draw the attention of anyone around the hallway.So she placed her finger on my lips and they clamped shut immediately."He's not to know about the pregnancy because I don't want him to. I've already made a grave mistake by making him the father of my unborn child when I knew he didn't care, I wouldn't worsen the case by letting him know about the fruit of our misdeed," She replied with tears pouring down in torrents from her eyes.I cupped her cheeks and dried the tears with my palm, my heart swelling with compassion for her. I wished I wasn't married so that we would go to Paris for me to take care of her, but it wasn't possible.The only way Dmitri could let me go with her was if I told him about the pregnancy and seeing how

Chapter 80ArielI dialed Dmitri's phone for the umpteenth time, but I was given the usual annoying response that he wasn't reachable. I clutched tightly in frustration to my cell phone and palmed my forehead."Where could he be?"It was past 9 pm and he wasn't here. For someone who left the house early this morning without greeting me goodbye, he surely should have called me to fill me up on details.The worry laced with anger that was growing in my stomach slowly dissipated when Liora who was earlier attending to her homework tugged at my shorts."Isn't Daddy coming back home tonight?" She asked innocently.She had gathered more weight as she enjoyed gobbling everything the cook prepared, but I still managed to hoist her into my arms."He will return, baby. Just give him some time. I guess he's very busy with work," I slowly placed her head on my shoulder and patted her head gently. "It's just that I miss him and we haven't been together as a family. It's either you're not around o
