Adrian POVWhen I went to meet my boss in his office, the receptionist informed me that there was an emergency, which is why he had left in a hurry. I tried to search for Luca, after all, he told me that the boss wanted to talk to me but I couldn’t find him either. Perhaps he left with the boss as well.I sighed. I was really tired. It’s good that he was not here, maybe he would have given me another work. I am too tired to do any more work today. Anyway, I will talk to him tomorrow in the office. Then I went to my home. …………………………………………Working for Victor Falcone was exhausting. Not physically but mentally. Everything around that man felt like a test, every conversation, every look and even his silence. And somehow, he always stayed calm while I was the one slowly losing patience.I walked into the office Monday morning with coffee in one hand and barely three hours of sleep.The elevator doors opened quietly and the entire office floor was already busy with phones, people moving qu
Adrian POVThere were three men but none of them looked like accountants or businessmen or anyone I wanted to have a conversation with in a dark street. The one in front of me stepped closer and asked with an angry voice “Will you come quietly?”Not again, he really sent people to threaten me again? My future father-in-law was an arrogant person and his men were also arrogant people. No wonder they were working for the mafia king. When I worked with him, I forgot that he was the ruthless Mafia King everyone was scared of. But I decided to marry his daughter, so I can’t be afraid of him. I have to prove myself in front of him.I crossed my arms and said with a casual tone “Depends.”Those people looked at me, dumbfounded and asked with a confused voice, “On what?”I continued “On who your boss is.”Hearing it, those men laughed and said “You got guts.”Well, if I didn’t have guts, then how could I fall in love with the daughter of the mafia king? When I fell for Isabella, I didn’t kn
Adrian POVMy first day working under Victor Falcone started with silence. It’s not normal silence but the kind where everyone pretends to work while secretly watching you.I could feel their eyes the moment I walked into the office floor. Some people whispered and some looked confused.One woman openly stared at me as if I had walked into the wrong building, maybe I had. Luca led me to a desk near the glass wall.He said with a serious tone “This is your table.”The desk looked new. A laptop waited in the center like it had been placed there minutes ago. I pulled out the chair and sat on it.For some time I hesitate then I asked quitely “Do people always stare like this?” Hearing it, Luca smiled a little and answered “No.”I raised an eyebrow and said with caution, “Good to know.”He continued, “They’re staring because he hires you.”I paused and narrowed one of my eyes and asked “Meaning?”Luca leaned slightly against the desk and said with a teasing voice “Mr. Falcone never hires
Adrian POVThe next morning started wrong. I knew it the moment my phone rang at six. My boss never called that early.I rubbed my eyes and answered “Hello?”An angry voice said through the phone “Adrian! You don’t need to come to the cafe anymore.”His voice sounded strange. My boss never gets angry with us. He was strict with our work but he never talked like that. Why did he call me and say this?I sat up slowly and cautiously said “What do you mean?”After a long pause, he sighed and said “It’s an order from above. We are cutting staff.”My stomach tightened but I said “But you said last week the cafe was doing well.”After another pause, he said “I’m sorry, Adrian.”The line went dead and I stared at my phone. For a long moment, I didn’t move, then let out a slow breath and murmured: “Well, that was fast.”I already knew who was behind it. The small apartment felt too quiet.I stood up and walked to the window. Morning light filled the small apartment. People walked on the st
Adrian’s POVTwo weeks later, I locked the door of the small cafe where I worked. The street outside was quiet.I rubbed the back of my neck and murmured “Long day.”I stepped onto the sidewalk and a black car sat across the street and its engine started.I noticed it but ignored it. I kept walking. My apartment was only two blocks away. Halfway down the street, two men stepped in front of me. They looked large and unfriendly. I never saw them here before. My neighbourhood was small; if they were here before, I would recognise them but I don’t remember any of them. Looking at their unfriendly gaze, I stopped.One of them cracked his knuckles and asked me “ Are you Adrian?”I looked at them calmly. Although my heart was racing rapidly, I composed my fear and answered “Yes.”One of the men said with a threatening voice “Boss says you will stay away from the girl.”I sighed quietly and murmured “I thought we finished that conversation.”The second man stepped closer and grabbed my coll
Adrian’s POVI stepped outside the mansion and took a deep breath and the cold night air filled my lungs. The party music sounded distant now.I loosened my tie slightly and murmured “Finally escape?” When I turned, I saw Isabella standing in the doorway with a teasing smile.She said with her teasing tone “You left me alone in there.”I shrugged lightly and said with an embarrassing voice “You know I don’t like too many people.”She walked closer and wrapped her slender hand around my neck and said “You survived meeting my father though.”I laughed softly and said “Barely.”She looked amused with my reply and said “You looked pretty calm.”I gave her an awkward smile and said “I was trying very hard.”She bumped my shoulder playfully and said “You don’t need to be scared of him.”I didn’t answer. Instead I looked toward the tall mansion behind her. Guards stood near the gate. All cars lined the driveway.I said with a thoughtful expression “Your father is very powerful.”She grinned
