All Chapters of Foxy And Her Guardian : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

“It has nearly been a month since Aldo disappeared, Mateo. He has never been gone for so long. I think you already know where he is or what happened to him. Why don’t you come clean, my boy? Or are you playing the old tricks? No matter if you change your last name, you are a Ricci after all.” A member of the Hansen family, Ole, spoke to Mateo. The Hansen’s are one of the allies. They mostly operate in Norway, but with the help of the Bianchi and Ricci families – they have been spreading their connections around the world. Mateo swirl the glass of wine in his hand as he listened to Ole. He didn’t reply to him – instead, he let him and others weigh in on the matter before he adds on. Another member of the allies, one from the Wang family nodded along. “I agree with Ole, here. You need to come clean.” He spoke in his thick accent. “And if you still insist you don’t know then we better move on. Aldo’s disappearance has been causing many issues for us. My shipment has been stuck at the por

“What do you mean? I don’t understand what you are saying,” To say Piper was stunned when Mateo mentioned Kai would be an understatement. She didn’t expect him to bring Kai up. She gulped fearfully. Mateo heaved a sigh as he hunched and placed his elbows on the desk while intertwining his finger. His gaze fixed on her – making her more and more anxious with each passing second. “You and I both know what I mean, Piper. I know you have been working for Kai for a few months, so you can drop the act.” Mateo inscrutably spoke. “I also know he is the one trying to kill Ethan for some reason, and I also know Benji is with him for the past week.” Mateo’s words were like a thunderbolt on Piper. Her hands shook as she gulped and watch Mateo glaring at her. “So, just go and tell him that I am asking to meet him,” Mateo added with such tranquillity that it scared Piper. The fact that Mateo knew about her spying for Kai slowly settled in for Piper. Her eyes fearfully twitched as looked at Mateo

(After Mateo and Piper’s conversation/Before Mateo went back to the island)Piper was already a living mess, and it didn’t make it easy for her when after Mateo confronted her, she came to her apartment to see police cars lined up outside her complex. All blood drained her face when she saw Mrs. Davis talking to one of the cops. She watched as a few people gathered around the police cars – they weren’t allowed to get into the building, so they stood behind and watched. Some cops were talking to some of Piper’s neighbors – among them was her next-door neighbor Mrs. Davis – who was in tears. Piper’s heart dropped in her stomach, and for some twisted reason, for a few seconds, she was thankful that Benji wasn’t here. She gulped and rubbed her clammy palms against her jeans. She carefully approached the police cars, looking around – when Mrs. Davis’s gaze fell on her. Her teary eyes widened as she pointed toward her and said something to the police. Piper’s soul almost left her body. Thi

“I found something that might lead us to what or who my dad was trying to protect,” Faith spoke as soon as she barged into Mateo’s room where he and Levi were having morning coffee. Faith had the folders Mateo left with her with all the documents – including all the information about her adoptive family. She barely slept all night, and as soon as the sun went up – she showered, changed, and straight came to Mateo’s room. Levi rose his eyebrow as he looked at Faith, who seemed to be flustered. Her nose was healing nicely. The bruises were getting darker, which indicated the healing process. She didn’t look in pain and her voice didn’t sound as hyponasal as yesterday. She was wearing a white t-shirt with ripped blue jeans. She was wearing her hair in a braid that rests on her shoulder. Levi also noticed how she was ignoring making eye contact with Mateo. He pinched in eyebrows together in curiosity and glanced towards his friend, who seem to be doing the same thing. He was wordlessly s

Mateo, Faith, Levi, and Blaire left the island earlier than Faith imagined. The sun was barely up when Levi took her belongings to the port. Blaire was with Jeremy since he will be here for another week – they were saying goodbye to each other. Kami came to see her off before the sun even came up, while Mateo was wordlessly standing behind Kami – just observing the two saying goodbye. Faith had tears rolling down her face, while Kami’s eyes were glossy and red as well. He has been crying previously. He sniffled as Faith put her palm on her cheek, “Kami, you have my number. If you ever need anything – just give me a call. I will always be there for you,” She said to him. She was very keen on returning to the city, but she was also sad to leave Kami and this place behind. For more than a month, this place was her home. Everyone treated her so well here. She is going to miss this place so dearly. Kami sniffled, “Of course, Sister Faith. Please, take care of yourself.” Kami said to her.
