Lahat ng Kabanata ng Claiming Mr. Mafia [ Book 1 ]: Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

"Damn, Dad!" Sherly ruffled her own hair when she thought of what her dad and brothers told her. He visited her, but they did not even bother to wake her up. Not only do they talk to him? What the hell did they tell him? She knows her father and brothers. If they wanted to know something about her, they would surely dig too much. She also knows that they have no sense of propriety when it comes to her.After hearing those words from her family, she decided to go and visit him. After all, he is finally awake. He must have visited her right after he woke up. Knowing George, that might be the case. As Sherly quietly entered George's ward, she couldn't help but feel a rush of relief wash over her at the sight of him peacefully sleeping. She approached his bedside with cautious steps, her heart fluttering with a mix of emotions.She's glad that she's not hurt and was saved in a short time. However, her heart aches knowing that Goerge was hurt because of her. Even though this was all set

Liam leaned forward, his expression serious. "George, I have something to tell you," he said, making George raise an eyebrow. "What is it?""Do you know that that woman is Senator Montenegro's one and only daughter, right?" George nodded his head. "Did you meet them already?" he asked again.George nodded his head. "Yeah, I met them last night. What's with it?" George asked with suspiscion in his eyes. Liam sighed and said, "Senator Montenegro wants Ace. He wants him for what he did to his daughter."George nodded, understanding the gravity of the situation. Of course, he knows that this will happen. Just based on his and Sherly's family conversation last night, this would happen. "I see. Ace has brought a lot of trouble to many people." He sighed, knowing that their friendship wouldn't be able to go back to what it used to be.Liam's eyes narrowed. "So, what's your take on this? Should we hand him over?" He doesn't know what he and Sherly's family talk about, but he could guess wh

The man sighed as he received the call from Lilia. How long has it been since he has been working for her? It's been so long. Now, the contract is finally done. This is her last work for him. However, this is kind of too much for him. Killing a woman who posts no threats to her is too much. As the hired man approached Marie Arnold, his footsteps echoing softly in the dimly lit alleyway, he felt a familiar surge of adrenaline coursing through his veins. He had always been killing, and this is the same feeling he always feels whenever he is about to kill someone. He knew what he had been tasked to do, but as he drew closer to his target, he couldn't shake the nagging feeling of doubt that gnawed at the edges of his conscience.Marie Arnold stood before him, her eyes wide with fear, her trembling form illuminated by the faint glow of the streetlights above. Sensing his hesitation, she spoke, her voice barely above a whisper. "Please," she pleaded, her words trembling with desperation. "

As Hideous struggled to contain the storm of emotions raging within him, his mind raced with the weight of Marie's revelations. He and his whole family had always been waiting to have a girl in their family. When his surrogacy managed to make a girl, he was so happy. Now, this woman, who was the surrogate mother of his daughter, is telling him that all of the suffering that his daughter has been through is all because of his wife? All because of that woman? The thought of Lilia's callous betrayal filled him with a seething rage that threatened to consume him whole.This won't do. He won't let this happen and won't let her get away from it. Now that he has a very strong reason to divorce her, it won't be that hard. Even if it becomes public, he won't get hurt since everything he did was for his own daughter's sake."Make sure she's kept safe," Hideous growled, his voice low and dangerous as he addressed the police officers gathered around him. There is no room for mistakes. He won't le

As Sherly scanned through the article on her phone, her classmates crowded around, their voices a cacophony of curiosity. She really had no idea about this. Maybe because it was just posted and she has no idea about it. It was because she hadn't been opening her phone. "Is it true, Sherly? Your parents are really getting divorced?" one of them asked, eyes wide with disbelief.Though she doesn't know about it happening right now, that does not mean that she wasn't aware of it. Sherly nodded, her throat tight. "Yeah, it's happening.""Wow, that's intense," another chimed in. "What caused it?" he asked again.Sherly hesitated, unsure of how much to reveal. She doesn't want them to know because her father hasn't given a statement about the reason yet. "Um, just... differences, I guess. They've been drifting apart for a while. I don't really know about that. Besides, I don't interfere with the adult's decision," she explains.The questions kept coming, each one digging deeper into Sherly
