"What?" Cayne was left mindblown yet again.
"Well then, have fun fighting for her with that brother of mine." Jilly moved past him and walked as fast as she could to get to the car.
"Jilly." He called for her, but she didn't even give him a second glance. She was hurt, more than hurting. If she could just put her pain into words, her heart wouldn't be bleeding from the pain.

Six months have passed, Jilly was nowhere near New York. Cayne had been struggling to keep up with his business. If it's not for his brother who stepped up, his business might have crumbled down. For a while, his bother had taken over everything.
Lincoln had no experience running a nightclub. His business
Jilly and Kook stood in front of Katherine's house. Kook looked uncomfortable, he turned to Jilly to make sure for the last time."Are you sure we're doing this in her house?" Kook asked. He never did an execution in someone's house, especially his staff. He rarely ever get his hands dirty."Very sure, Kook. Are you afraid to find something you are not ready for?" Jilly taunted him. She knew what was going on with him and Katherine. Whoever she was going to hurt in the process of hurting Cayne, those are not her responsibilities."I fuck her. That doesn't make her my girlfriend." Kook was not a jealousy type. He will get jealous of those he cares about. With Katherine, he was just not there yet."But you have a thing for her. So, brac
"I don't, baby." Cayne replied strongly. He doesn't want to repeat the past, ever. He had tasted the wrath of Julliane Bakerhubb. Never, ever he wanted to face her again."Then stop playing around and do your job precisely." Jilly sternly said to put him in his place. She never once lowered her gun which was pointing at the back of his head."I just wanted to see you. I missed you." Cayne said what he intended to say. Jilly wanted to laugh so hard when she heard that."Do I wanted to see you? I've been gone for a reason. One and clearly to be away from you. I would never want to see myself as a third wheel anymore. I am so done with you, Isaiah. If I could, I would kill you so I don't have to see your face again." As bitter as she was towards him, she would never kill the man she once loved.Aware of the gun on the back of his head, he needed to be fast to avoid an unwanted fire. He moved his head to
Jilly wanted to go back on the plane right away. But, Marco asked to stay the night because he was going to meet someone around the neighborhood, as in the next town.So, the next day, Jilly stayed home as Marco went away for his business. She was not afraid to leave everything behind, she never felt tied down to the place she lived in right now, not even for her family.She ordered breakfast because she doesn't want to leave dirty dishes. She was leaving not just because she wanted to, but for a side job as well.She knew who would come to her door to deliver the food. He would take the opportunity to come to her door. When the doorbell rang, she walked to the door to get her food. Expect the expected, she just knew it."I didn't know
"Rachel," Jilly called out the name on the list she held in her hand. It was listed on the paper clipped to the writing board."Presence." Jilly looked up at the voice and smirked."You're hard to get rid of, huh?" She asked the girl. Her case was not that different from Jilly's. Marcus found her and brought her in. The difference is, she's more like Katherine than Jilly. So, it's either she dead or dedicated her life to the mafia world which she soon to be discovered if she passed through all the training."Here to stay. Well, there's only the three of us now." Rachel, a blonde girl with fierce eyes pointed to themselves."You're right. If the three of you passed until the very end, you have a bright future ahead of you." Jilly said. Indeed, from the seven names on the list, there are only three girls remained in the house."We know because we're looking at one," Sara said while
"Jilly!" She was awoken from her daydream by his voice. She turned her head to find Marco stood next to her. She raised her eyebrow at him in question."Yes?""Mom is preparing lunch. We should go." He said. He was confused to found her daydreaming like that."What about the kids?" As she asked, her head turned towards where the three girls were supposed to be. She frowned when she saw no one was there."I sent them away," Marco replied. "Can we go now?"Instead of going as he asked, Jilly suddenly wrapped her arms around him. She rested her head on his chest."What's wrong?" He asked softly and rubbed her back softly. He could see that she needed some comfort, so he was providing her one."Why did they look up to me like I'm some kind of hero?" She asked in confusion. That was the first time she ever heard people saying things like that
Marcus and Jilly walked to his study. Jilly knew not to get excited because it was not going to be about work that she loved so much. Somehow, Jilly felt like trouble from home have arrived. "What is it?" Jilly asked as they were in his study. Marcus walked up to the mahogany desk and grabbed something off the desk. Jilly saw papers and printed pictures on them. She could see through the papers. "Come take a look," Marcus said, gesturing for her to come closer. Then, he handed her the papers. Jilly took them but didn't look at them right away. She looked at Marcus for a few more seconds before she took a look at the pictures. She knew it, the trouble at home had arrived. "You could have at least printed a better picture. You know, in a glossy paper so the pictures turned out good." She said as she put them down on the desk. She had no intention of keeping them or looking at them for long. "Is it him? I caught him today around the premises. Loo
Jilly walked into the nightclub where she knew he was waiting. It would always be her who came to him without had to be called directly."You think you can walk freely in this country and this specific town without noticed?" Jilly's voice brought him to turned his head to the side. She leaned on the table before the chair while looking at him."Come sit down." Cayne patted the chair beside him, ignoring her previous question."Do you think you can order me around?" Jilly stared at him hard."No." He replied honestly. "But, I just hope that you will sit down and have a few drinks with me." He uttered his wish. He was sitting on a piece of thin ice himself, but he acted it naturally.She was fuming while looking at him. But then, she realized something. A smirk made an appearance on her lips. He was waiting for his pending doom."Come on." Again, he patted the
Jilly sat on the couch in Marcus' office, waiting for the man to come. She finally got a job to do, but she was not happy about it. So unusual of her and they would notice it right away.Not long after she just slugging on the couch, the door opened."Really? So unladylike of you, Jilly." Marcus commented, seeing how she sat on his couch. She sat looking like a boss when no one was around."No, Marcus. I love you." Jilly said while smiling and straightened her posture up. "Where's Marco?" She asked as she didn't see him followed his father into the room."He's in the warehouse. So, let's go." Marcus told her, gestured her out of the room, and follow him.The both of them walked side by side to the warehouse. Jilly hadn't seen Mariah around the house. Where could she be? If she was going out, Jilly would like to come along."Where is Mama Ria?" Jilly asked her
