The Mafia Boss Is After My Life Chapter 132
Miller studied Mira for a long moment before he spoke again, watching every flicker of her expression like a man reading a hand of cards he already suspected was rigged."You shouldn't be too confident," he said. "Jems is going to be the one to confirm everything you've just told me."Mira blinked, confusion washing over her tear-streaked face. She sat up a little straighter in the plastic chair, her fingers twisting together in her lap."What?" she said. "I don't, how is that even possible? She's still," her voice caught, cracking down the middle like a dropped plate. "She's still missing. Isn't she? You said she was missing. You said Don Emilio had her.""She was rescued," Miller said, watching her reaction with the same careful, clinical attention he'd give a suspect in any other interrogation, even though some part of him, the part that had held Emily Dawson's hand through some of the worst hours of her life, hated himself a little for treating this moment so coldly. "About an hou

Miller didn't take Don Emilio to the station.He took him somewhere else entirely, a decommissioned warehouse on the edge of the industrial district, one of several properties his twelve-man team had quietly acquired off the books over the past year, using cash, shell names, and nothing that could ever be traced back to the department. No cameras. No paper trail. No judge on anyone's payroll would ever know this place existed.He pulled the car into the loading bay, killed the engine, and sat there for a long moment, staring at Don Emilio's reflection in the rearview mirror."Get out," Miller said finally.Don Emilio's earlier bravado had thinned considerably by now, but he still managed a sneer as two of Miller's most trusted men, Reyes and Cho, both part of the twelve, hauled him out of the car and marched him toward a windowless room at the back of the warehouse."You can't do this," Don Emilio said, his voice climbing, real panic finally beginning to show through the cracks. "This

The mansion had gone eerily quiet compared to the chaos of twenty minutes earlier. Officers moved through every room in organized teams now, zip-tying the last of Don Emilio's surviving men and marching them out through the shattered front gates in a long, defeated line, hands bound, heads down, the swagger completely gone from every single one of them. Others worked through the upstairs office and adjoining rooms, boxing up file cabinets, hard drives, ledgers, burner phones, and anything else that could be logged as evidence. Years of Don Emilio's empire were reduced to cardboard boxes, carried out one by one like furniture from a foreclosed house.But Captain Miller wasn't watching any of that.He stood in the doorway of the empty office, staring at the shattered glass on the desk, at the drying blood mixed with spilled whisky pooling across the mahogany, and at the back door hanging open onto the private garage beyond.Empty.His jaw tightened so hard it ached."He's gone," Miller

Gunfire still echoed around them, with Marcus, Diego, and Wallace holding the line, forcing back the men still pouring in from every direction, but Jems barely registered any of it. Her entire world had narrowed down to Ethan's face, pale and slick with sweat, his eyes fluttering."Stay awake," she begged, pressing harder against the wound, tears streaming down her face and dropping onto his cheek. "Stay awake, Ethan, please, look at me. Don't close your eyes. You're going to be fine, do you hear me? You're going to be fine.""Jems," he rasped, his hand weakly finding hers where it pressed against his side."I love you," she sobbed, the words pouring out of her now, desperate and raw. "I love you so much, Ethan, and I need you to stay awake, okay? I need you to fight. I want to spend the rest of my life with you. Do you hear me? The rest of my life. So you cannot close your eyes right now. You cannot leave me. Not now. Not after everything."His lips curved, just slightly, into the gh

The door swung open. Two guards inside spun toward them, weapons already rising, but Diego was faster. He put two rounds into the first man's chest before he could even pull the trigger, the suppressed shots barely louder than a cough. The second guard managed to get one shot off, wild and high, embedding in the ceiling, before Marcus dropped him with a clean headshot. "MOVE!" Marcus barked, all pretense of stealth gone now. The gunshot would have carried. They burst deeper into the basement level, and that was when the real chaos erupted. Shouts echoed from multiple directions, along with footsteps pounding down the staircase behind them. A door slammed open somewhere to their left, and three armed men poured out, opening fire the moment they spotted the intruders. Ethan dove behind a support pillar as bullets chewed into the stone beside his head, chips of rock stinging his cheek. He brought the PSS up and fired twice, catching one man in the shoulder and sending him spinning in

Ethan and Kim pressed against the side of the mansion, backs flat to the cold stone, and Marcus held up a fist, the signal to stay silent. Through the nearest window, Ethan could see the edge of what looked like a kitchen. Empty. No movement. "Kim," Marcus whispered, barely more than a breath. "How much time do we have left on the loop?" Kim checked her tablet, her expression tightening. "Seven minutes. Maybe eight if we're lucky." "Not long enough to search this whole place," Wallace muttered. "We don't need to search the whole place," Ethan said, his eyes scanning the looming structure above them. "We need to find where they'd keep a prisoner. Basement. Isolated wing. Somewhere with fewer windows, easier to control." Marcus nodded slowly. "Diego, did you notice anything on the schematic that matched that?" Diego pulled a folded printout from his jacket, angling it so the dim light caught the markings. "There's a section here, west wing, ground floor. No windows on the exterior

The ride home was silent because Jems couldn't get a hold of herself. Her hands were trembling slightly in her lap, and she kept twisting the fabric of her sundress between her fingers, creating little wrinkles in the lavender material. Every time they stopped at a red light, she'd steal a glance a

After they finished eating, Jems stretched dramatically on the living room couch, patting her stomach contentedly. "I'm so full," she groaned happily. "That was the best dinner I've had in forever."But even though she'd enjoyed the meal, she was getting restless. She'd been cooped up inside for so

"Are you feeling much better now?" Ethan said, reaching out to gently lift her chin with one finger so she had to look at him."Yes," Jems said in a low voice, her eyes still slightly red from crying."Good. Now let's begin," Ethan said with an encouraging smile. "Where can I get vegetables?"The k

"Not bad," Jems finally said as she quickly stood up to get a glass of water from the mini-fridge in her room."Not bad?" Ethan said, raising an eyebrow with that infuriating smirk playing at his lips. "Or do you mean perfect?""Well... you really tried. I didn't know you could sing that well," Jem
