Together, we went to the parking lot. When he let me inside the car, I immediately messaged my friends that I am now going to the party. They said the circles were already complete and I am the only one who is still not there. It’s not like their other friends were expecting me, but they wanted to introduce me to them, so it is merely courtesy for me to show up prepared early.

“What time do you want to go home so I can fetch you?” Karlo asked in the middle of his driving.

  • Hail the Mafia Queen   Chapter Eighty-Four: Before I Fail It

    It was safer for the Red Cartel and me that we didn’t share the sensitive information, just because Ian and I had a past. I don’t want my heart to be softer ever again. Ian bowed his head on my shoulder. I know that even though I couldn’t see the guests around us very clearly because of Ian's broad shoulders blocking my sight, they are watching us like hawks. They might be overthinking, but they can give us the benefit of the doubt for all I care.I wonder what the Red Cartel assassins are now up to in the casino. Did they penetrate inside successfully? “It’s fine, Minerva. I am merely glad that we met and talked again to find closure,” he whispered.“How did you fall in love with Helen? How is it that you have the guts to marry her?” I couldn’t stop myself from asking.Ian released me slowly and looked me softly in the eyes. In the end, he sighed as we started dancing again.“When we broke up, she was the one who comforted me and pushed me to be a mayor. We got closer in the proce

  • Hail the Mafia Queen   Chapter Eighty-Three: Help

    The lingering glares of Helen from the far side were stabbing me while Ian walked me through the crowd. Their eyes were following us even though the host was still announcing some information about our family, events, and businesses. While we were heading to the crowd, Ian suddenly leaned over to whisper something in my ear and squeezed my hand.“I am proud of where you are now, Minerva,” he slowly said.I saw how everyone subtly whispered because of how Ian was whispering near me. I bestowed a smile before replying.“Thank you,” I casually said.I sensed that he wanted to talk more, but we had already arrived at the guests. The conversations I had with them were all about business and my family. They were already familiar to me, thanks to the social-business parties I attended with my parents way before. Gosh, I kinda miss them. I have no idea if I am doing it right in these formal interactions with the professionals, but I have gone through a lot just to make myself small. This shou

  • Hail the Mafia Queen   Chapter Eighty-Two: The Guests

    It’s almost eight pm already. When I went to the balcony, I saw the vast backyard where the guests were enjoying themselves with drinks and food. They wore expensive cocktail dresses and tuxedos that shone under the party lights. The lights were on them, and I turned off the lights on the balcony, so they wouldn’t see that I was here.My eyes surveyed the visitors. The board of directors in Real Estate was complete when I spotted them conversing with each other. I was delighted a bit when the employees of the company even attended that Melanie was serving for beverages. Melanie then went to the celebrities and served them drinks. When she was about to hastily turn around to serve the other visitors, she accidentally bumped into my nemesis.“What the hell is wrong with you? Are you not looking where you're going?!” I read Helen Palma’s lips saying.Melanie’s face blanched in horror and repeatedly bowed her head, apologizing to the conceited woman in front of her. I raised my eyebrow wh

  • Hail the Mafia Queen   Chapter Eighty-One: Makeup

    While the makeup artist was busy with my face the next day, the door suddenly flung open and revealed Timothy in his white dress shirt, black slacks, and black shoes. He was casually fixing his watch while approaching my chair, his eyes focused on me. The makeup artist had to back away when he halted beside my chair. I glared at him for barging into my room.“I really can’t believe that Glaidel was saying the truth. You will really throw a party in the mansion!” he exclaimed with a dramatic hand gesture. “I can’t wait for you to tell me who you invited!”“You just came from America with your luggage, and this is how you greet your cousin,” I replied and didn’t answer his reprimand. “I sent your tuxedo to your room in the mansion by Melanie. You can measure it and tell me if it isn’t your size.”I looked in the vanity mirror again and motioned the makeup artist to continue what she was doing. She nodded, now continuing to do my makeup. I heard Timothy place his hands on his hips.“What

  • Hail the Mafia Queen   Chapter Eighty: Welcome Dinner

    “Queen, your mansion is good. There are no hidden cameras or trackers. We checked every angle of your home, despite taking a day because of how big it was,” Glaidel reported to me from the other end of the phone. “You can come back here, Queen Minerva, as you should.”I inhaled sharply while holding the steering wheel of my car. “It would be a while,” I replied. “Thank you to all of you, Glaidel.”“You’re welcome, Queen.”I hung up the phone and continued driving on the road. I had a hell of a day. I met the board of directors in our company, held a press conference, and reviewed all of the activities of our business for over a year. It might be many, but at least I finished it all with the help of Dara.“… he mentions that he misses you…”Biting my lower lip, the grip of my hands on the steering wheel tightened when I remembered what Dara said a while ago. A liar like Karlo would be the last person to believe. For a long time, he lied, pretending to be my forever ally against the wo

  • Hail the Mafia Queen   Chapter Seventy-Nine: Questions

    Just like I expected, my bodyguards were already lined up outside the meeting room. Dara was behind me, while I was heading towards the doors. I took a deep, focused breath before opening the doors of the meeting room. Flashes of cameras and echoing murmurs filled my ears the moment I came inside. I even heard gasps and whispers about my return after being gone for a long time. Even when I came back from abroad, I never really announced my arrival in the Philippines after finishing my MBA and training hard to be an assassin. Karlo and Timothy both thought that my life would be at risk if my presence was known, especially if Helen and her organization were lurking everywhere to kill me. Now, I am in front of the cameras, ready to be exposed in public, and speak my mind. I don’t care if I will be assassinated by Helen’s organization in an attempt. I will wipe them out, no matter what.I sat on the chair in front of a long table where a water bottle was placed and a microphone on a sta

  • Hail the Mafia Queen   Chapter Four: The Red Cartel

    For a moment, I could not move as I watched Helen smirking devilishly and clicking the trigger. My life flashed before my eyes and my dead parents went through my mind. I just snapped back into reality when I felt warm hands wrapping around my body as the firing of bullets filled my ears. When I s

  • Hail the Mafia Queen   Chapter Three: Helen, the Enemy

    I did not even realize that there was media surrounding the entrance of the hotel. Their cameras blinded me, so I shrunk my eyes just so I could see clearly. The guards tried stopping them, but they kept capturing us, especially the other guests in front of us. “Mr. Rodriguez! Please let us have

  • Hail the Mafia Queen   Chapter Twenty-Five: Turned On

    What time is he coming back?I watched the time from my phone and saw that it is going to be one am. Currently, my buttocks are glued to the sofa, Netflix is on the television, and my phone is in my hand. Victor and I were texting each other an hour ago.Victor: So you and Ian had already broken up

  • Hail the Mafia Queen   Chapter Five: Can’t Trust Anyone

    The maids have already brought the tray with food and water the moment Karlo went outside to leave me alone. I remained staring at the ceiling, trying to fight the headache caused by what Karlo said to me a while ago.The Red Cartel. The government. The enemies and criminals of my parents…Everythi
