She Took My Father's Rolex

Lucas POV

If it wasn't for Naomi's cousin, I wouldn't leave her side and wait for her until her final interview gets finished while I'm outside of my own company, wearing the same disguise to cover my identity because the security guards on duty know me.

But why does Jamie have to be with us all the time and offer a ride for my girlfriend? She's a nuisance and even if I want to get rid of her off, I can't. She's the only person who took care of Naomi since her father died because her mom literally don't give a fuck about Naomi.

Well, as long as she's not going to interfere in our relationship, then I'll let her go around my girlfriend.

"Sir, Ms. Kim is already in the company." One of my men tells me.

"Good, open the door." I ordered and my men moved to forcibly open the door in front of me. Mrs. Kim got startled upon seeing a lot of men entering their apartment.

"Hey! What are you doing here?!" I heard her yell. I heaved a deep breath and entered the apartment but was immediately disappointed when I saw how trashy the inside and there is even drug paraphernalia on the table and there was Naomi's mother, sitting at the couch with fear and confused eyes looking at me. "Who are you?!" She asked.

"You don't have to know." I replied as I let out a sigh. I couldn't imagine how Naomi killed herself in her part time job just to feed this useless woman. What a nuisance.

One of my men pulled a chair and put it in front of Mrs. Kim after they removed the table. Then I sat down and leaned my back. "Listen." I started but I paused and looked around the small apartment, I almost smiled seeing Naomi's baby picture hanging on the wall. I twitched my lips and cleared my throat after then looking back to Mrs. Kim. "You owe us money."

"Wait, about it. I'm going to pay you back! I promised! Just please—."

"You have said the same thing last week, but you're not even doing something about it. So—."

Mrs. Kim suddenly gets on her knees in front of me while her hands rub together above her head. "Please don't kill me! Please I'm going to pay you back, just don't kill me!" She begs.

"Get up." I commanded and my men pulled her up and pushed her back on the couch.

"Please—."

"I'm not going to kill you." I said and snapped my fingers in the air. The guy behind me went in front and he opened the briefcase containing 500 thousands dollars. Mrs. Kim's eyes widened and if she's a cartoon character, her eyes would literally turn into a dollar sign while looking at the money. "I want you to leave this country and never come back again." I added.

She looked up to me with left eyebrow raised and she leaned back to the couch, pulled her one leg up and bent it, then her arm rested at the top behind her.

"What do you mean by that?" She asked.

"I want to remove you from the picture in Naomi's life." I said without tearing my gaze away from her so she would know that I'm serious about sending her away and far from her daughter.

She straightened up and leaned forward her body and held my gaze. "How did you know about my daughter?"

"I'm a mafia boss, do you really think that I don't have the capability to know everything about you?" I asked back with a smug smirk on the corner of my lips.

Mrs. Kim laughed obnoxiously and she looked at me, then laughed even louder. "You're the boss? Aren't you the one who keep walking Naomi home?"

"I'm her boyfriend."

"Her what?" She asked, her laughter stopped as soon as she heard my relationship with her daughter. "Wow, really? Then I don't have to pay you back because I'm technically your mother-in-law." She said more smugly and leaned back again.

I snapped my fingers again and my men shut the briefcase then he handed me a gun with silencer at the tip and I pointed it to Mrs. Kim. "It's easier to kill you than send you far away from her."

"Wait wait wait, fine! I'm going to leave!" She said and grabbed the briefcase as she stood up.

"Good, now leave and never come back again because if I see you again, you'll be dead." I warned her.

"But wait, where am I going to hide?"

"I don't care as long as it's far from here." I shrugged my shoulders and stood up from my chair. "My men will escort you to the airport." I added and walked towards the wall behind Mrs. Kim and took the baby picture of Naomi.

"Okay, just wait for me here, I need to get my passport." She said as she quickly ran inside the room and heard a closet opening and when she came out, I walked towards the door and they started dragging her out of the apartment and she didn't refuse at all and let them take her away. My men escorted her to the airport just to make sure that she would really leave for good.

All I have to do now is to stay with Naomi once she finds out that her mom abandoned her.

I received a call from Denver that Naomi's final interview was successful since I let someone handle it and not Hannah. That girl hates my girlfriend but I can't fire her either. She's the only person who knows everything about my company since her father was my former secretary before he died at old age. Denver is the son of our family's butler and since his dad are too old to be my apprentice, he sent his son and Denver became the most trusted person that I have in my life. He's the only person who can go in and out of my mansion, of my company and he's the only person who knows me better than anyone else.

That's why I'm letting him take care of my company while I'm busy trying to get my girl.

I sat at the backseat of my limousine, while my bodyguards stood around the car and waited for me to tell them what's the next move. Since Naomi's interview has ended, I will just wait for her to come home and find the empty apartment.

"Boss, she's five minutes away." My driver said at the front of the limousine. I nodded my head and started to change my clothes, a cheap denim jeans paired with a simple shirt and my thick eyeglasses but to be honest, this is just a fashion eyeglass. I just needed to wear this to justify my look as a nerd, then I told my driver to drive me one block away from Naomi's apartment and I immediately got out of the car and tell everyone to leave now.

I glanced at my watch and waited for another minute till I saw a cab stopped in front of Naomi's apartment, and my girl stepped out. Damn, she's so perfect! I stopped myself to smile and let out a sharp breath and walked towards her.

"Naomi!" I called before she could go upstairs. She looked over her shoulder and smiled when she saw me.

"Hey." She smiled and walked back to me.

"How did it go?" I asked, referring to her interview.

"Well.." She paused and looked down. My forehead furrowed with that. I swear to God, if Hannah interferes with her interview, I'm going to kill her on my own. "I'm hired!" Naomi then exclaimed and she laughed when she saw the frown on my face. "Got you!" She slapped my arm but clings to it after.

"I really thought it didn't go well." I sighed.

"They liked my portfolio and they want me to start tomorrow."

"That's good! We have to celebrate it." I said.

"You're right and since we're already here, let me make you a cup of coffee in our apartment." She tugged me along with her up to their unit and didn't let me protest but as we are walking to their apartment, she suddenly stopped when she noticed their door was left open.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"N-nothing." She stuttered and I could feel the upcoming drama so I needed to prepare myself. She quickened her pace just to reach their apartment and I was just following her. Until she finally reached it and ran inside. "Mom?!" Naomi yelled.

"What happened here?" I asked innocently while looking around the whole unit. I know that my men trashed it earlier so Mrs. Kim looked like she's in a rush but I think they overdid it a little too much.

"Mom!" Naomi shouted again as she ran straight to her room. I heard shuffling sounds inside her room but I just waited in the living room while staring at the drug paraphernalia that her mom used earlier when I talked to her. "No no no!" I heard Naomi shout so I ran quickly to her room.

"What happened?!" I asked, my reaction isn't an act anymore as I heard her scream. I saw her sitting on the floor, crying her heart's out while looking at the open closet in front of her. "Hey, what's going on?" I asked worriedly as I approached her.

"She took my father's rolex! That's the only thing that my Dad left to me." She cried.

That witch scumbag!

"Who took it?" I asked, even though I already have an idea who it was.

"My m-mom!" She sobbed as she stood up again and ran out of the room, then she went to another room. I didn't follow her this time and just waited in the living room again. After a few minutes, she came out looking so weak, tears still streaming down on her face that ruined her makeup, but she's still the most beautiful girl to my eyes. I padded towards her and encircled my arms around her head and pulled her closer. "She took e-everything." She cried against my chest. I didn't say anything and just rubbed her back to console her. "I can't believe that she would stoop down so low for stealing the only thing that reminds me of my dad."

"Are you sure that it was your mom?" I asked.

"Y-yes." She replied as she pulled away and looked up to me. "Have you seen those things on the table? She's using illegal drugs again and I know that she took the watch to buy herself another drug!" I could see the anger in her eyes and to be honest, I'm liking how she's started hating her mother so I no longer need to find another solution once her mother came back because I know, Naomi will never talk to her again, especially that Mrs. Kim made a huge mistake for stealing Mr. Kim's watch.
