Semua Bab THE MAFIA LORD’s CONTRACTUAL WIFE: Bab 21 - Bab 30

“And I won't let anyone lay a hand on her nor would I stay adamant if someone tries to steal my woman,” he declared. “I don't care whoever it is. I'll kill them all for sure.”My heart skipped a beat after hearing what Bryce said. His voice was rigid as usual but the words he was spouting were warm as if he meant every word he said. If I didn't know any better, I would have believed he really meant it. And unlike Ace, Bryce wouldn't talk like this unless he meant it or he needed something and that required him acting like he's in love with me. On my part, I would like to believe that the latter is the case. Him acting affectionately like this gave me goosebumps. He's freaking me out. “If you kept on acting like this, I might misunderstand that you really like Ran and your relationship with her isn't contractual, Bryce.” Gab sighed and crossed his arms. “Maybe it is a good thing that I know you since we're still a kid, no?” he asked. He looked at Bryce and smiled wryly. “Remember Ha

“N-No. Nothing,” I stuttered. He cleared his throat. “You need to move faster, Leigh. I still have a meeting with the executives.”I nodded my head and smiled before walking towards the bathroom. Weird. Really weird. He's been acting more like a different person since yesterday and it's making me anxious. And the way he looked at me gives me the creeps. I don't have any idea what's going on through his head but it seems like I am his target. Again. I took a shower and did my morning routine. The smell of the shower gel made me think about his manly scent. He smells really nice. I quickly washed my body and slapped my cheeks. Stop thinking about him, damn it! Just stop.After bathing, I wore a formal dress and black sandals. I got out of the wardrobe and saw the two men in my room. Sheldon was standing still near the door while Bryce was sitting on the sofa.Bryce looked at me. “That suits you better,” he complimented. I looked at Sheldon and furrowed my brows and looked at Bryce

I looked at Tyler with my brows furrowed. I am not aware that Hendrix Stanov would be facing the lawsuit. If there is someone that should know about what is happening to that son of a bitch and if there’s someone who has the right to kill that jerk, I am the most qualified person for that. I should be the one torturing him. I’ll kill Hendrix. I just have to do it with my own hands.And he would be the first person I’ll kill for personal reasons without the org telling me to do so. Hence, he shouldn’t be put behind bars for me to do it without suffering from any repercussions. Torture suit him best and him begging in knees makes it even better. He’s way too evil to be killed so easily or be put in jail with special treatment. I needed him to suffer and give him a taste of hell. I’ll kill him slowly and wait for the day that he’ll beg to just kill him instead. Give him false hope and ruin it the next moment.“Your expression seems a bit off, Leigh. What’s the matter?” Bryce asked.

This is insane. Fucking insane. Sheldon looked at us with a shocked expression while the executives just shook their heads and acted like they didn’t hear anything of what Bryce said. Meanwhile, I am left dumbfounded. Bryce continued sniffing my neck like some maniac that he is. I am beetle red and embarrassed of what he’s doing in public. “B-Bryce…” My voice croaked and it sounded like a moan. “Stop it, Bryce. We’re in public.”He snorted. “Yeah? As if I care.” He tucked my hair behind my ear before biting my earlobe. “You don’t have to be so embarrassed just because of this," he whispered huskily. “We’re in my company and no one would tell me what I should do and what I should not do inside my territory. I am the boss here, Leigh.”I squirm my feet. I wanted to push him away and let myself breathe. My heart was racing so fast as his eyes examined me from head to toe and smiled at me after. Should I crack his head so he could tell the difference between me and that girl named Vi

I rolled my eyes at her. “You and your paranoia,” I murmured. “You!” She pointed her index finger at me again angrily. “You ungrateful child! Just because I replaced your mother…” she paused for a moment as her eyes grew bigger. She bit her lower lip before glaring at me again. “Tommy!” she yelled. “That child is disrespecting me again!”I furrowed my brows. I wasn’t even doing anything but just let her blabber about how I hated her guts which is very irritating. This woman never failed to irritate me. She’s been getting on my nerves ever since I met her and it seems like she has the knack to get into everyone's nerve every fucking single day. I ignored her and looked at the little guy who kept on staring at me. I smiled at him. “You’re late, mom,” he declared. Dad immediately put his index finger in between his lips. He tried to hush Ron but Ron just rolled his eyes at him. I remained silent as I knew dad wouldn’t let this slide. “What did I tell you, Ron?” dad asked, readying hi
