After a few good minutes of waiting there, Dave lifted his face to look at the woman standing there waiting for him to look at her.
"So, you are the woman pregnant with my child.", Dave said throwing his head back.
Chloe lies to the guards that she is pregnant with Dave's kids and wants to meet him to inform him about her pregnancy since she didn't contact him in months. She knew that this will make him meet her at least once. But this chance comes with a risk, Dave can kill her for lying.
He sprang his head back to look at her again, he eyed her from head to toe.
"I am not sure whether I slept with you or not, seeing how you dressed up to come here, for sure you are not my type", Dave said mocking her.
"But let's say I have spent a night with you, I accept that baby is mine if you are pregnant", Dave stood up from his seat and went to her.
"You chose the wrong man to joke around, I kill all those women I spend a night with, those over there also don't know that", he said coming near her bending to her height, and whispering in her ear.
Chloe's body tensed at his words, she did know that Dave has slept with a lot of girls but didn't find anything else on them. She was suspicious that he must have taken them with him but didn't think he would kill them, as no such case was ever filled.
Chloe didn't say anything to him even if she say it will only make things worse for her, he meant that she should be dead by now if she slept with him.
"Don't worry I will not kill you, I know, I am quite handsome for girls to run wild for me. This is nothing.", Dave said brushing his hair with one hand and in a stimulating tone.
For Chloe, he was completely spewing nonsense, but she didn't say anything as this may help her to find a way to meet him again.
"Of course, I am. I heard people speaking of a very handsome man entering this club and I wanted to meet him. Now I am seeing him in person, he is an exceptional beauty.", Chloe said with a glimmer in her eyes and with all the excitement she can show.
"But that was a bad decision.", he said in a husky voice, completely changing his tone.
Getting back to the place where he was before, he extended his hand and picked up the glass of whiskey placed on the glass table.
He slowly took a sip of it, not feeling the fire at all, and he gulped it down. The whiskey went down his throat, cold, without taste, the whiskey began to burn in him, and he again looked up at the woman standing there.
"You did a grave mistake, no one is allowed to meet me without my permission and you intended to do so. The time I decided to meet, I decided to kill you too. But seeing you not affected by the fact that I can kill you any time, I want to see you for a few more minutes.", he said in a sweet yet cheeky voice, placing his hand under his chin as if he was admiring her reaction.
"Why is that? Don't you know, I am a mafia or you don't believe I can kill you?", he said changing his tone to a scary one.
Chloe doesn't know what to say, she has to choose her answer wisely.
"I do want to see you but that doesn't mean you will kill me for that unless you are a sadist or a psycho.", she said in a calm voice despite the fuss in her mind.
She thought of a lot of things to say but the only thing that attracted him to her was her unaffectedness, so she decided to say something which can justify her actions.
"Tsk..., I see you know how to play with words", Dave's attention was completely on her.
"But that doesn't seem to be your real intention, your story doesn't match your actions. You seem too calm for someone who unexpectedly crashes into a mafia and on that the mafia is saying to kill you. It more seems like you are expecting me to be here", Chloe thought that he was thinking of her as a fangirl, but no all this time, he was observing her every action. Chloe was out of words she doesn't know what to say in such a situation.
Suddenly the loud music in the club stopped, and for a minute there was complete silence in the club. Everyone's eyes turned toward the DJ of the nightclub, a man was standing there with the DJ.
"Hey! Mr., Will you play the music?", a girl said from the crowd. The crowd started to make an uproar.
Hearing the sudden fuss down, Dave asked one of his men to go and check the reason for the fuss.
"Check, what happened down there.", he ordered his men. Before his men can go and report him, they heard a gunshot down, his men looked down from the balcony and saw one of their men shot down in the head. He was one of those men who were disguised as normal people, he looked around to look for a man who must've shot, but there was no one with a gun.
No one on the floor knew who fired the bullet, everyone was silent no one knows anything.
Seeing his man, not reporting anything, he looked down from the balcony and saw the dead body.
"Is he one of our men?", Dave asked his men slowly. His man nodded his head.
His rage went up, and the only thing he thought about was the relationship between the presence of an anonymous girl and the sudden fire on one of his men.
She hung up the phone.Mira questioned her, "What happened?"."He simply ditched me, saying he got some urgent work."A car stopped in front of them.When the two turned to face the automobile, the car's window dropped.Frank was seated in the vehicle."Hey! You must be finished with your work now. Come along with me.", Frank remarked as he turned his face to Chloe from inside the vehicle."Why should I?", Chloe asked in a quiet voice glaring at him.Chloe's words were not heard by the two of them."If you'd like, let's go out to dinner together.", Frank suggested with a smile."Oh! I believe your friend arrived. Hello, I am Chloe's colleague Mira, we are in the same department.", Chloe heard Mira say this."No, he's not the friend I was talking about...", Chloe said to avoid misunderstanding.Frank interrupted Chloe's sentence, "Nice to meet you, mam. Thank you, for keeping her in your company.""No, he..."Missing Chloe's words, Mira said, "You were talking about something ditching
"You don't have to behave like my girlfriend anymore after we reveal about brother. We can sign another contract too."On the same day, in the afternoon, in the company"I will think about your words and respond later," Chloe remembered saying before leaving Frank's room."I know you'd make a wise decision," Frank said as she exited the room.Chloe was replaying the morning conversation in her head.'I have no choice but to comply with what they are saying. But now my goal has shifted; I was already lacking in information on Dave, and now I know nothing about him. Aiden has not yet contacted me. I'm sure I'm on their radar now. I can't even get in touch with him. Only if I can ask him directly.' Chloe reflected as she sat at her desk.Chloe was lost in her thoughts and didn't notice that someone was calling out for her.She was working at her desk when she heard a small knock. Mira was the one."Huh?" Chloe asked, perplexed.Mira, pointed her finger at Alex, who was standing a little
The Next Day, Early MorningChloe was dozing off in her bed when she flipped over.Behind her, she sensed a dip in the mattress, like though someone had been sitting on it.Without delay, she spun around and withdrew the dagger that she always kept beneath her pillow.She brandished the dagger at the intruder in her room.He raised his hands instantly, and it was Frank, she saw sitting on the bed."I assumed you were getting a good night's sleep." Frank remarked, "I see you are quite sensitive."Pointing the blade at him, Chloe questioned, "How did you come in?"Frank jokingly said, "Shouldn't your question be what I am doing here?"Glaring at him, Chloe said, "Answer me, first.""OK, all right." Frank replied, "I entered through that door; it's my house, and I have extra keys for all the doors in this house."Chloe noticed the door opened.Frank asked, "Now, will you put down that dagger?" as he pushed the blade halfway down.Chloe reclaimed the dagger.Chloe asked, ruffling her seve
Chloe left Frank and Dave and went to her room.As Chloe walked away, Frank asked Dave, "Can we go to my room?""Yes. By now, the room must have been cleaned by the maids.""I kept this room locked while you were away.", Dave said as he opened the door, "Everything is as it is, as you left it."Frank replied, looking around the room and recalling all the memories of his youth he had, some fuzzy and some as vivid as the sky, "Hmm... it's been a long right?"Dave hugged his brother once more and whispered, "I waited for you."Frank could hear a slight tremble in Dave's voice.Frank hugged him back, and let him rest on his shoulder for a while."How can you trust her alone? What if something happened to you? I would have sent more people. Why you asked for her alone.", Dave asked as a tear escaped from his eyes falling on his brother's shoulder.Frank said to his brother, "I wanted to see what she was capable of and what not.""You take such a big chance just to try her out?", Dave quest
On one side, Frank and Chloe were standing, and on the other, the enemy's men were waiting for Frank."I'll handle everything; just get in the car and drive away from here," Chloe told Frank.Chloe was prepared to fight back though she knew she couldn't win over these men. But the only thing she has to do is get Frank safely out of here.The enemy's men began to approach them.Frank took Chloe's hand in his."We're not going to win here." Frank said as he began running in the opposite direction pulling Chloe with him."Run." Frank said.With all those men trailing behind them."What are your thinking? We can't avoid them for long even if we run inside.", Chloe said as she ran."Simply follow me and run as fast as you can. We just need to vanish from their sight.", Frank said as the two kept running.Suddenly, a bullet was fired at them. Chloe looked behind her, and those men were getting closer. They were shoving people all over the place.The airport police attempted to stop them, bu
Dave escorted Chloe away from the party. There was another car alongside the one they arrived in. Dave made her to sit in the other car.Chloe noticed, while getting in, the Castello's symbol wasn't on the car.Dave inquired about her arms, "Are you loaded?""Sufficiently.", she answered."If you require additional weapons, there is one right beneath your seat. You are also free to take that. The driver will take you to your destination and explain everything to you. There will be a man there. Bring him safely to me. That is your responsibility.""What is his name? How will I recognize him? ", Chloe inquired, perplexed by what was going on.If there was an emergency, hundreds of Dave's men will be stationed here. But no one was there, so it could be someone Dave doesn't want anyone to know about.Who could it possibly be? Chloe asked to herself."The driver will give you a picture. I'll tell the others that you weren't feeling well, so we're both going back. I'll be waiting for you a
