Lahat ng Kabanata ng Triad Princess and the Mafia King: Kabanata 151 - Kabanata 160

 WALANG inaksayang sandali si Hyacinth nang makabalik siya sa Chan Estate. She immediately looked for Paul Chan. Naroon ito sa loob ng study nito.Paul Chan only gave her a furtive glance. “You’re back.”Hyacinth bowed down to the Dragon Head. “I’ve retrieved the ledger, Uncle.”Tumango ang matanda. “Good. Where is it?”Dahan-dahan siyang lumapit at ibinigay rito ang pulang ledger. “Everything is in there.”Ngumiti nang makahulugan si Paul. “Great! I know I can always count on you, Cinth.”Tipid na ngumiti si Hyacinth. “I’m just doing my job.”Binuklat ni Paul ang ledger, ilang beses itong mariing napailing nang makita ang nilalaman niyon.“As expected, the Lao Clan are traitors… so are the other main families.” Paul scoffed and closed the ledger.Lihim na napalunok si Hyacinth. “What’s th

NAGKAROON ng pribadong meeting sina Paul Chan at Ernest Zhao. Naroon sina Hyacinth at Wei para magsilbing bantay, kapwa sila nakasuot ng face mask para itago ang kanilang pagkakakilanlan. Napapagitnaan nila si Paul habang nasa harapan nila si Ernest.Hyacinth remembered Ernest Zhao attended her wedding with Varo before. Tiyak na makikilala siya nito kapag tinanggal niya ang takip sa mukha.“Do you really need to bring two of your best assassins to guard you?” kalmadong sambit ni Ernest.“I don’t trust traitors. Better be safe than sorry,” Paul scoffed.Umasta namang hindi apektado si Ernest sa pasaring ni Paul. Pero damang-dama ang tensyon sa paligid. Naroon sila sa isang pribadong golf course na pag-aari ng mga Wu. Isa rin sa mga haligi ng organisasyon. It was a neutral ground for Paul and Ernest to negotiate.Nagbuga ng hangin si Ernest. “Since the mafia is trying to undermine us, I’d rather choose to strengthen our organization than let it fall for to those outsiders.”“Really?” ti

“BOSS, I’ve secured an invitation to the Pillars Convention,” excited na wika ni Yuen habang hawak ang isang pulang envelope na may nakasulat na chinese characters. Inilapag nito ang envelop sa mesa ni Varo na kasalukuyang abala sa files na binabasa habang nakaupo ito sa wheel chair.Ang Pillars Convention na tinutukoy nito ay ang pagsasama-sama ng mga haligi ng organisasyon para sa taunang pagtitipon. It was a huge gathering for the Triad and the host for this year is the Chan Clan.“Are you sure Aramis won’t mess this up?” Tiningan ni Varo si Yuen na wari ay tinatantiya ang ibinalita nito.Yuen made a full recovery three years ago, and Varo trained him so he became his trusted secretary and driver. Ito lang ang tanging taong mapagkakatiwalaan niya lalo na at alam din nito ang kanyang totoong pagkatao.Varo had been hesitating to let Yuen enter the underworld, but they could not escape such a path since they were both born in it. Sa paraan din na ito mapoprotektahan niya ang matalik

“WE will host the convention as usual, the squad’s identity must remain classified as much as possible,” wika ni Ren habang ginaganap nila ang final briefing bago ganapin ang convention kinabukasan. Kasalukuyan silang nasa loob ng conference room ng kabilang base.The Great White Shark Squad and their commanders were all present, aside from Ali and Rouyun who were still in Moscow. Hindi kasi sila dadalo, pero ipinahiram sa kanila ang kalahati ng elite unit ng Phantoms para tumulong sa seguridad.“Yes, Vanguard!” sabay-sabay na wika ng mga naroon.“I will be with Uncle Paul all the times, I want the elite battalions to be ready. We can’t afford even a single mistake,” sabi ni Ren.Tumaas ng kamay si Vesta. “Let me deal with the troublemakers.”Umiling si Ren. “No, Vesta. You’re the trouble. Focus on your own committee.”Ngumuso si Vesta. “Fine, logistics is boring.”Tumingin si Ren kay Hyacinth. “Cinth, will it be okay if I add a little more task?”“What is it? I’ll manage it. Though J

LUMAKAS ang tawa ni Paul Chan nang marinig ang sinabi ni Varo. Even Ren had to chuckle in disbelief upon hearing Varo’s proposal. “You’re basically saying you want one of my daughters’ life. No, young man. I’ve already lost Xiaoyu. Besides, their marriage is for them to decide.” May pinalidad sa timbre ng boses ni Paul Chan.“This marriage will surely benefit the Chan Clan more,” Varo insisted.Mariing umiling si Paul. “That’s impossible. Haven’t you heard? Ali is already engaged. I have Cinth and Vesta, though we are not blood related, I considered them my daughters as well. But I highly doubt they’d want to be involved in a marriage alliance.” Tumikhim si Ren. “With all due respect, Mr. Lao, you’ve just celebrated your grand engagement. Are you trying to put our Chan Clan to shame?”“That engagement is more of an internal family arrangement. I can call it off anytime. My father will surely be elated with this marriage alliance,” taas-noong wika ni Varo.Paul’s expression darkened.
