Lahat ng Kabanata ng LOVING A GANGSTER: Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

Four long months had passed, and Sophie remained in a deep slumber, showing no signs of waking from the so-called coma. To escape the heavy reality of her unresponsive state, Alex threw himself into work, immersing his thoughts in tasks and responsibilities. The room that once held the light of the vibrant girl now seemed haunting, forcing him to stay away to avoid confronting the sight of her lifeless figure on his bed. The weight of her absence lingered in every corner, pushing him to find peace in the busyness of his daily routine, as if trying to drown out the silent echoes of hope that had begun to fade away. For the sake of Natalie, Alex was trying to hold on, but he doesn't know how much longer he can endure. His gaze was icy, so cold that hell itself would freeze as he glared down at the syndicate responsible for the turmoil in his heart. "How does it feel to have something this large pierces your body?" he questioned the man, his voice filled with a chilling resolve. As he

Later on, the doctor came in to check Sophie's conditions, but because she was tired, she slept in between the check-ups, and this made Alex fret a little. "What is this? I thought she was fully awake. Why is she going into a coma state again?" he questioned her in panic, his concern for her well-being clear in his voice. Sighing, the doctor reassured, “No need to panic, Alex. She is just sleeping.” Regaining his cold expression, Alex retorted, “Who says I was panicking?” he replied, glaring at him. Sensing the directed glare, “Right,” was all the doctor could come up with. “Anyway, looks like Miss Rust's condition has stabilized. Her system is getting used to the new blood, so all we have to do now is wait for her to fully recover,” he explained to him. “For that to help, once in a while, please take her out for a walk, and she needs to eat good food to keep the blood pumping,” he added. “She is safe now, right?” Alex inquired, his concern lingering in his words. Doc Drew turne

**** I observe Avanska with confusion. "What do you mean, 'a call from my parents'?" I inquire, "Why?" "What do you mean, why?" Rick responded instead: "Do you need a reason to receive a call from your own parents?" he asks, and I shoot him a sharp look. "Why don't you shut up and let the commander reply to me?" I snap at him. Shocked, he exclaimed, "You see what I'm saying, Avanska? She is..." "Enough, Rick," he yells at him, "Why are you whining like a dog?" he questions, clearly irritated. "What?" Sighing, Avanska turns toward me, "Sorry, actually, when you were still in a coma, the boss tried to reach your family," he explains. Frowning, I inquire, "Why?" "Because with your condition, no one expected you to survive, so the boss decided to contact your family and have them..." "Come for my corpse?" I questioned cutting him off. "What? No, that's not it at all. The boss would never..." "Okay, sure, whatever you say," I reply with a wide grin, cutting him off again, "Can

As Sophie slipped into unconsciousness, Alexander Kova crumpled to the ground, a heavy sigh escaping his lips. "Jesus," he breathed out, visibly shaken by the close call,Drew, wiping the blood from his nose, commented nonchalantly, "That was close."Infuriated, Alex shot back, "You think so?" He questioned Drew with a rage burning in his eyes as he rose to his feet. "What do you imagine would've happened if she had pulled the trigger?" he demanded, gently laying Sophie on the bed. "Did that thought even cross your mind?" he asked again, this time facing Drew directly."Relax, nothing happened, did it?" Drew asked casually, with a hint of sarcasm in his tone. "And besides, I didn't know you cared that much for me, Boss. I'm flattered," he added, his voice taking on a flirtatious note."Go fuck yourself, Drew. I don't give a damn about what happened to that lousy brain of yours, but rather what harm it would have done to her if she pulled the trigger," Alex snapped. He turned away from

***As much as I loathed it, from that day on, Rick began paying close attention to me, and Alex was no exception.Later, Nat brought the shopping bags to my room. I stared at her for a whole two minutes. They left the door to the room open, and Rick stood guard, but I could sense that only half of his concentration was here, undoubtedly afraid I might go berserk and harm the annoying brat.Huh!""Annoying brat? 'Since when did Nat become annoying to me?' This is not good."What?" she questioned my stare."Seriously, you went shopping again?" I asked, trying to get the thought out of my head. "You still haven't learned your lesson." I added with a forced smile."Ha-ha-ha, that's funny," she spat out and threw the bags on the bed, joining me. "These are your shopping bags. I've been keeping them for you ever since the accident. Now that you are awake, you can have them back," she said."Oh, wait! I thought there were destroyed alongside the car?" I asked as I picked up the phone bag."
