Semua Bab Cielo: Chronicle of untold truths : Bab 1 - Bab 10

Her father tapped her a few times and she turned on her bed, pulling her pillow closer.“Heyy, wake up.” her dad called lowly, but the urgency of his voice couldn't be mistaken. She fluttered her eyes open before staring at her father with sleepy eyes.“Dad. What's…” “Shhh. Be quiet, Cielo” her father interrupted. His tone was low, but strong enough to let her know something was wrong. She stared from her father to her brother that was standing a few feet beside him looking uninterested in what their father was saying. She sat upright on the bed, rubbing her eyes with her palms as she waited for her dad to speak again. She still felt sleepy. “Let's go." Her father stated matter of factly and helped her get out of the bed. She got down from her bed quietly and put her legs into her flip-flop slippers before her dad pulled her out of the room. They walked into the lobby where they heard a loud banging on the entrance door. She wanted to scream, but not for her father's hand that went

The Charity event soon ended and the crime families soon returned to their base. There was only one thing on their agenda. Find Mr. Anonymous!The Charity event had realized up to twenty million dollars that were to be used to carry out projects in the city.“What the fuck was that?” Alessio screamed at his underboss as soon as they stepped into the foyer of the house. “Who is the anonymous person?” he questioned, walking to the bar and taking out a bottle of whiskey. He turned a quantity into a glass, drinking from it before turning back to face him.He had donated the least amount of money. The Verrilli family wasn't even financially buoyant to make such donations, but it was mandatory for all the crime families to donate. The Verrilli family had lost a whole lot of money in the past two years. After a drug deal with the Venice mafia had failed to pull through and their parcel was intercepted by the federal cops, they had hit the rocks of financial crisis. Alessio was prone to making

“I want an alliance. An alliance between the Verrilli family and the Rossi family. An alliance until we find the anonymous man.” Alessio stated with an impeccable tone. “Why?”“Why? Cos I think we should be united.” Alessio answered, still holding his gaze. Romano cleared his drink, drinking from his glass again. He relaxed into his chair, picking up a stick of his favorite cigarette from the table.“These things don't work that way, Alessio,” he said, his voice coming out unusually calm. “It should be a beneficial relationship, grattami la schiena, io gratto la tua.” Romano spoke up.“It would be quite beneficial for both of our families,” Alessio argued, making him scoff.“Do you have access to the dock? How many businesses do you have, real estate, gold? Do you have a relationship with the Russians?” he questioned, all in a bit to spite him. He knew the Verrilli family lost all these. They were the poorest of the three families, plus they were already in debt with the Italian godfa

Cielo sat up from the bed, resting her back on the headrest. Her head was pounding slowly as she stared around the room. It looked strange to her. This wasn't her room. It was beautifully painted and decorated with white and a touch of light blue. The pieces of furniture in the room were made of maple and gold. Her head was blank as she stared at the round in awe.“Finally awake?” that one voice she was trying not to get used to asking. She spun and saw him sitting on a chair by the edge of the bed. How didn't she see him since?“You. What are you doing here?” She questioned and he chuckled.“You are in my house. This is one of my guest rooms,” he answered and she almost screamed. She was in his house!She stared at his face for any sign to show that he was joking but found none. His face was hard as stone. She looked around the room again. The blanket she was covered with was all soft and smooth. It all made sense now.“How did I get here?” She questioned.“You passed out.”“What?” Sh

“Who are you?” he asked and a chill ran down her spine. She looked him straight in the eyes. “Did he find out about her?” she thought, trying to read his eyes. “What do you mean?” she asked in a low tone.“I want to know more about you. I found your card, it states your name is Mia, but I'm curious. I want to know more.” He replied and relief washed through her. He was yet to find out anything. She just had to be careful.“Yes, my name is Mia, Mia Dante. I work for the government.” She replied.“I know all of that already. Tell me what I don't know,” he replied and when he noticed the uneasy look she had, he added. “Let Me leave you to rest, we will talk later.'' With that, he walked out of the room, closing the door softly.Cielo heaved a sigh of relief as he walked out of the room. She had thought he already found out her secret. She closed her eyes to relax and fluttered them open immediately. She had to contact her boss immediately. She searched for her purse on the table and when
