The entire ride to the store was awkwardly silent. Frank said nothing because he wasn't someone who spoke much and Jennifer too remained silent. After all, she was anxious as hell. She wordlessly followed Frank when Mike pulled in front of the store. Mike watched how Jennifer obediently followed his boss. He had been stealing glances at them during the ride from the rearview mirror, amused by the fact that Frank seemed to be looking out for the girl. She was brought to his mansion as a prisoner and was supposed to be used as bait, however, destiny had other plans. He understood why he was putting up this act in front of his father and cousin. However, he didn't have to put up the same act when they weren't around. Cackling, he drove towards the parking area of the store to wait for his boss, and his 'girl'. "Welcome to Lilly's, how may I hel

The next day started with all of them having breakfast together once again. Jennifer noticed how Todd kept grimacing each time he stole a glance at Frank. However, she remained silent and chose not to comment on it. Frank's father was calm and collected while Frank seemed to focus on his food without uttering a word. He didn't seem to care about Todd's rude stare. Jennifer didn't mind the lack of conversation between the Gothams. An awkward silence hung in the air as they ate. The only sound that echoed in the grand dining room was the clinking of their cutlery.    "So, Jenny," Todd finally spoke, disrupting the silence between them, "aren't you bored to be all by yourself the whole day? I mean….as your boyfriend, I think Frank must take better care of you. Doesn't he take you on dates or anything like that?" Todd's question seemed strange to Jennifer. She couldn't discern why he should

Frank was dumbfounded. He couldn't do anything besides staring at the goddess who was descending the stairs. He had seen the gown before, however, this was the first time he was seeing her wear it. He had always thought that she was attractive, yet seeing her all dolled up was something else.  The dress revealed the right amount of skin on her chest and shoulders and hugged her figure perfectly. The simple, yet elegant design looked as though it was specially made for her. The make-up she wore enhanced her soft features and her hair-do was flawless. However, what polished her look was the lovely smile she wore on her luscious lips.  When she halted in front of him, the alluring scent of her perfume made his mouth water. "Let's go?" 

The Mafia lord Parker narrowed his eyes at Rudolph. Indeed he had been working hard for his organisation and had it not been for the commendable work he had done during the past month, he wouldn't have given him a chance to speak. "You better have a good explanation for this," Parker stated, his eyes still narrowed on the middle-aged man who seemed to be despondent. "I….. I don't know…… I… it has been more than a month since I last spoke to her. I don't know any of this." He stammered. To say Rudolph was scared would be an understatement. He had been trying extremely hard to be on their good side. He had even risked his life when he sneaked into Frank's office that night to steal his laptop, hoping it would lead them to what they had wanted the whole time. It did have the information, yet it was misleading. However, his h

As planned, Fox stealthily arrived at Gotham's mansion. Hiding in the shadows of the thick bushes, he spied on their movements. The men wore hats lowered onto their faces to hide their identities, and to Fox that was an advantage. That would only make it easier to pretend to be one of them. He waited patiently. He knew it would be best if he could find someone who was the same build as he was.He knew time was limited and that he had to get the work done by dawn because once the sun rises, it would be too late. He looked around. Four guards were armed with loaded guns at the main gate. Two lookouts were at the side gate and one other patrol was policing on the side. His focus was on the lone patroller. The build was somewhat the same as he was hence, he hastened to make his move. Fox remained in ambush as the guard patrolled. He was keenly waiting for him
