Enzo:

For an entire hour, since I got to the office, I couldn’t do a single thing. I didn’t even have to come in today, but with how everything had gone this morning, I just couldn’t stay home.

The thought kept racing in my head, and with every second, they morphed into something worse. Maybe it wasn’t an accident. Maybe he had been standing there for ages, watching her, maybe Tabitha was lying to me, and he did touch her, maybe he wanted to touch her… maybe, maybe, maybe… It was exhausting.

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    206. Enzo

    Enzo:I was crazy to think that I’d get any rest as soon as I got home. As soon as I dropped my bag, my obsession took over me. I hurried up the stairs to my bedroom and tore open the drawer. Thank God that it was still there. The paper was still in the plastic bag, and I took it out carefully, scared to damage or crease it, or do anything to make it harder to read. “What the hell could this be? You must have put yourself through a lot to hide it, Vincent.”The number and letters were still there, still faded, still unreadable, seemingly changing every single time I blinked. The bed creaked as soon as I sat down. Tomorrow this mystery would be sorted out… hopefully. I looked at the paper again; would Sandy be able to decode it? Also, was there anything else that I needed to know? Maybe Vinceng was leaving clues for me. Did he want me to find something?His house…I was supposed to be on the market years ago. I got clear instructions from Vincent to sell it when he dies and use the

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    205. Tabitha

    Tabitha:“Well, look who is back home.” Natasha walked to the door. She was in a different housecoat, smiling from ear to ear, with another glass in her hand. Didn’t she ever get tired of drinking?“Get out of my way.”I pushed past her and headed up the stairs. Her light footsteps followed closely behind, even though I wasn’t looking at her, I could feel her smiling. “Your daddy called this afternoon,” she teased. “He was so worried about you. Maybe you should call him back.”I mumbled something and buried my hands in my pocket, wrapping my hands around a piece of paper. I just wanted to get to my room and avoid her. If not for her and her nonchalant attitude, my day would have gone much better. “So, who did you see?” he teased, her footsteps feeling closer than before. It was like her breath was right on my neck. “Have another guy that you’re interested in? Someone to make Enzo jealous?”“Can you just leave me alone?” My blood pressure was rising; my face was burning hotter. “I a

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    204. Enzo

    Enzo:“What do you mean that she went out?”“It means that she went out, Enzo,” Natasha snapped. “Last I checked, she was an adult. I'm already doing a lot of pet-sitting for you.”“Pet sitting?!” I snapped back. “You were the one who asked her to come over. I didn't want her to go.”“Same difference, Enzo,” Natasha sighed. “She is an adult human, not a cat. She can take care of herself. Now, if you will excuse me, I have to prepare for a meeting ahead of tomorrow.”The line went dead. I couldn't believe that Tabitha just… left. She didn’t even tell anyone where she was going. I called her phone twice, but it went straight to voicemail.Shit! She was probably intentionally ignoring me, and knowing her, she probably wasn’t with anyone that I trusted. My chair creaked as I leaned back. Collin… she was probably with him. I could feel my blood rising at the mere thought of it. I already told her how I felt about him. If she was still seeing him, then… No, I didn’t want to think about th

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    203. Tabitha

    Tabitha:“So that’s it.” I gripped my mug tighter, staring at one spot on the table. “I have no idea what to do. Andrew might be hurt, and Enzo is not speaking to me.”The silence hung between us for a while. I took a deep breath. Maybe my problem was too big to fix. Maybe I was overthinking it all, and I needed to…“Tabitha, what do you want to do?”I looked up at Collin. He was taking a sip of his drink, his eyes fixed on me. He wasn’t smiling or frowning. He was just… looking.“What?”“It is a simple question.” he set his mug down and leaned forward. “Maybe you don’t know it because you are with a gentleman who is much older than you, but you are an adult. What do you think is the right course of action?”My mouth opened, but no words came out. This was… this was actually the first time that anyone had ever asked me something like this. I mean… What do I even say? “I think… I think that maybe…”Collin raised a hand to stop me, a smile returning to his face. “You don’t have to tel

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    202. Tabitha

    Tabitha:She just… sat there. For most of the day, she was drinking a glass of juice and typing away at her keyboard like she didn’t have a care in the world while her nephew was suffering.I had taken a picture of her as evidence. There was no way that she didn’t plan this kidnapping. There was no way that anyone could be this calm. It was 3:00 p.m. I hadn't gotten a wink of rest. I was following her, watching her, taking notes of everything she did and said. A few times, she caught me staring and would just smile, shake her head and go back to what she was doing. “You can stop being a peeping tom and come out,” she called out, not raising her head from her laptop and sighing dramatically. She muttered something under her breath and reached out for her glass. “I can’t believe that Enzo has to deal with you.”I came into the room and sat on the sofa furthest away from her. My cover had been blown, so there was no point in sneaking up on her anyway. “You are really not going to do a

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    201. Enzo

    Enzo:I still couldn’t believe what I was seeing. One by one, I flipped through the papers in my hands, looking from Richard to Nora and back to the files. It really wasn't a joke; it was written here in black and white. How could they? "When did this happen?" I demanded, my hands shaking with the files. "When did you talk to them?"“You know, Enzo,” Richard leaned back in his chair and folded his hands together, “it wasn’t really a ‘when’ thing. Maybe a coffee here, golf there, and brunch every other Thursday and they were inspired to come up with such a wonderful idea.”“Wonderful idea?! Richard, my entire board is sending in requests to sell their shares to you. What did you tell them?” I demanded again. “I didn’t tell them anything. They decided it on their own, and I simply agreed,” he shrugged. “I'm a businessman, Enzo. I am not one to turn down a good deal when I see one.”“And you saw this as a good deal?”Richard smiled and leaned forward, a glint in his eyes that made my s

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    105. Tabitha

    Tabitha:I said nothing. The car ride was quiet, and I watched the street lights pass with a blur. My fingers ran lazily across the buttons on the door, and soon I pressed one to lower the window. The evening breeze came in, whipping my hair softly and filling my nostrils with the evening freshness

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    104. Enzo

    Enzo:I couldn’t help myself. I had been talking with Mr. Bolden. We were finishing the discussion about the prototype, and that was when I saw it: Andrew leading Tabitha around the house. My gaze had followed them until I could no longer see either of them as they disappeared behind the house. My

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    103

    Tabitha:I was outside with Drew, his hand on my waist as he comforted me. My eyes stung, my throat burned, but I was going to be fine. Drew sat me down on the porch and waited for me to catch my breath. I smiled at him with teary eyes, and he chuckled. “I really have no idea what to do,” he said

  • In My Godfather’s Bed    101. Enzo

    Enzo:Mr. Bolden stretched his hand out to shake mine. For a man his age, his grip was strong. He smiled at me and gave a thoughtful nod to Tabitha, who was at my side. “My daughter was the one who set this all up.” His voice was surprisingly clear for a man his age as well. “I’m not really all f
