  • The Mafia’s possession   Chapter 75

    The lockdown started on a Friday, and by Sunday she was furious.She knew why she was angry. She was angry at Jessie. It had been days, and she had not spoken to Jessie. She wanted Alex to take Jusin from Jessie and bring him to live with her, but Alex declined because that would make Vicenzo’s cartel aware of his plans. He made sure to tighten security. Her movement has also been restricted, and she didn't know if she should blame Jessie or herself for choosing to stay with Alex. She has only one month left on her contract with him, but she is now in greater danger. The gym had been the first thing. Sam had explained it.

    Lillian found a small velvet box on her pillow at seven forty-three in the morning.She sat up right and looked at it for a moment without touching it. She picked it up after some minutes. There was a delicate gold chain on a small pad of black silk. It was so small she had to bring it closer to her, and then she noticed the small rose pendant. There was no note, not even a single hint, but she smiled, realizing that only Alex would do that. Alex was speaking on his phone when she found him in his study. He was standing at the window with one hand in his pocket. She stood in the doorway with the velvet box open in her palm and waited for him to finish his conversation. He finished the call a few minutes later, and when he turned around, he saw her standing by the doorway, and he smirked. "This was on my pillow," she said."I know.”He walked to the other side of the room where she stood. She held the box as he reached into it and lifted the chain between two fingers carefully an
