Lahat ng Kabanata ng Love Impossible: A collateral to the mafia: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

10 YEARS AGOFEBRUARY 15, 2004. LEKKI, LAGOS.All the members of the Lawal mafia family were all seated in the conference room while Richard sits down in the king-sized chair with the consigliere by his side."Richard, are you saying Alexander will become the underboss? What about your first son, William?" One of the capos of the mafia, Benedict Johnson, questions."The position of the mafia is not only passed down due to age differences but also by competency..." Richard takes a dice from the table."-Lexis has proved to be more than capable in many ways." Richard says firmly.He turns to his consigliere, "William would become his consigliere instead."The consigliere sighs, "Boss, I know very well of Lexis's capabilities, but is it not right to give the position to William?" He shrugs his shoulders. "-I mean, Lexis is only 18.""Yes, boss. Come to think of it." Benedict adds as he turns to Lexis who is sitting like a statue looking at the air as if he's not even paying attention to w

THE PRESENTAPRIL 17,SATURDAY 2022.8 am.“Mom, why did you cheat on dad? If you hadn't cheated on him, maybe he wouldn't have hurt you like that.” He says to his mom who sits beside him smiling broadly but he wasn't a little boy this time around, he was all grown up.“There are some things you wouldn't understand my son.I just regret the fact that I couldn't spend more time with you. I couldn't even watch you grow.""I'm sorry mom, really sorry." He says as his eyes clouds with tears.She smiles lovingly at him. He reaches for her face but it seems to be too far from his reach. He tries reaching for her face again so he could feel her touch, even if it's for a little bit but her face just keeps moving farther and farther from his reach. He panics as he tries harder but her whole body starts to fade away from him.*****“Mom! Mom please wait! Pleaseeee..." He screams desperately as tears roll down his cheeks.“Underboss! Underboss!" Erica yells trying to wake him up.Lexis suddenly op

She sits down on the lavatory seat in the toilet staring at the picture of the document William had sent her.She sighs resting her back as she wonders how and where she's going to get it from.“Kemi! Kemi!" She turns to the door as she hears Rose's voice."I'll be done in a few minutes Rose!" She says loudly.“Madam Teju is fuming Kemi! She says you left your duty!"Kemi sighs as she hears that. That woman wouldn't even let her use the toilet?“Tell her I'm using the toilet Rose.”“Em... Kemi I've told her that like a hundred times but she doesn't even want to hear from me..." Rose pauses leaning closer to the door and whispers, "Is she always like this Kemi?”Kemi chuckles lightly before going over to wash her hands. She walks out and meets Rose now standing close to the bed.“She was really angry Kemi." Rose says with widen eyes.Kemi smiles lightly, “Don't worry, its fine.."But before she could finish what she's saying, madam Teju burst into the room.“Why haven't you cleaned the b

“Jayson, I heard you went to that slum to see that girl again. Is that true?" Martins asks his son as they all sit at the dining room having breakfast. Jayson sighs but didn't say anything. He simply keeps munching on his food totally ignoring his father.“Jayson Jimoh!" Jayson sighs as he hears his mom yell.Adding his surname to his name, he knows she's at the end line of her patience.“Your father asked you a question!"Jayson sighs and drops his fork on the table before turning to his father.“Yes I did." He replies curtly.Martins hits his hands on the table as his face becomes ugly from anger. "You're a part of a Mafia family for heavens sake Jayson!"Jayson fights the urge to roll his eyes as he stares at his father.“You are just a low capo in the mafia dad, what importance do I have there?..." He shrugs his shoulders.“That Lexis or whatever his name is, does not even care about my existence. The only capos he knows of are George and Erica."Martins clenches his fist, "How wo

~Third person POV ~The table in the room is turned upside down, many papers are flying around the room while the others are already on the ground. He is squeezing a document in his hand as his face is ugly from the deep frown he is wearing.“F**king hell!" He yells in anger as he throws the document on the ground. He runs his hand over his head in frustration as he leans against the table. He had gone over to Alhaji Bawa's house to get him on his side with the document Kemi had gotten for him. The document contains all right to the family company and shares but after taking it over to Alhaji Bawa,he found out that it wasn't the original. It is only the photocopied document and so he couldn't use it. It angers him so much that he was so close but still wasn't.His phone rings on the table and he sighs before picking it up to answer the call. He glances at the caller name before placing the phone on his ear.“Hello." He says to the phone.After listening to the person on the other end,
