Lahat ng Kabanata ng My Dad's Mafia Bestfriend: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

Adrian"What?!"I turned to Kael, who was quiet with a tab in his hand, and I pulled him into a corner immediately."What?""The ships took a hit, and Lyra ran away from the house.""Fuck fuck fuck fuck! How did... How did that happen?""Which...""The both of them. The ships, her, how did she run away?""She made a deal with a delivery girl to leave in her clothes and bike."God, she was going to be the death of me."And the ships?""Exploded. Two of them.""What?!" I couldn't believe that."Should I shut down the party?""What? No!"I ran a hand through my hair and put on a smile when some people by the corner turned their heads in our direction.They couldn't know what was wrong.They couldn't know, or things would become imbalanced in the system.The power, the strength—they would all become questionable if things went wrong, and I couldn't let that happen."You, take care of it and keep it under wraps, and Lyra, find out where the fuck that... where she went to."He nodded and le

Adrian I was gulping down a glass of whiskey when Kael came back into the house, and he came to a stop beside me."And?""They've been loaded onto a plane and are on their way back.""Good."Hopefully, they wouldn't remember a thing of what had happened by the time they woke up."And the ship?"Now that my best friend's daughter was out of the way, I could take care of business matters even though that was supposed to come first."The police are looking into it. They think it's a faulty electric system.""What? Not a bomb?" It was the least thing I had been expecting since we lived in a world where everyone was after everyone but a faulty electric system?That was what had fucked my plans up?I refused to believe that."No. They're investigating, so they should come to a conclusion soon."Fuck!"Hope our men are on the assigned team that is investigating?""Yes sir.""Now, prepare a plane. We're going to Rome.""Oh."****LyraThe light was too bright, my head pounding crazily and my

Adrian"How is she?""Okay.""Does it seem like she remembers anything?"Kael shook his head as he walked beside me to my car that was on already.The valet handed the key over to him and walked away while we both got into the car."She seems pretty normal and is going about her daily activities without trouble."I didn't trust that about her. Sooner or later, she would fall into trouble and need me to save her, and I really couldn't keep getting distracted by her.I needed to focus and erase her from my mind, but the way her neck had felt under my hand still remained vivid in my memories."Okay then. The money?"He nodded to the bag beside me, "Intact. We had gathered every income we made from our businesses to cover for the loss, and the buyers have agreed to wait one more month for their supplies."It was crazy how the ship had exploded."And you said the police concluded that it was a faulty electrical system?""Yes sir.""Anything suspicious yet?""Not yet. Everyone seems clean,

LyraFuck!The eyes again.They were moving, crawling out of the guy's face, morphing into something; it felt like it was calling out to my own eyes."Arghhh!" I woke up with a scream when my eyes began to crawl out too.Okay, this was getting out of hand.I still couldn't get to the bottom of this, and I was losing sleep on it.Fuck!I got out of bed and went into the bathroom even though it was just 4 am in the morning, and I prepared the bathtub for a bath."All I know is that he mainly runs his business back in Sicily. I don't really know him or why he told me to follow you around."Sicily.That was where Greg, Bella, and I had gone for the party.Could he have been there?Was that why he had found me?I settled back in the tub after the water had become warm enough and just thought about it.The whole ordeal.The route we had taken to the house.It had been dark that day, but I could try recreating the path in my mind.I sighed and ran a hand through my hair, exasperated.As if I

LyraThree weeks later,Greg, Bella, and I were all out of breath when we got into an Uber later that afternoon, and we all glanced back out of the car, expecting my "bodyguard" to just pop up out of nowhere."Do you think he fell for it?" Bella asked, and I shrugged."Most likely. But it doesn't matter, as we only need to make it to Sicily before he finds out."Then, it would be difficult for them to find me since it was an island with no one on my back already."Right.""Did you take everything you needed?" I asked both of them, and they nodded"Only the essentials."Due to our predicament of fooling the bodyguard, we had been unable to pack like normal girls would for a trip, but we weren't going there to party either; I was going to find answers."We can always buy anything we need when we get there too."They both nodded, and we headed to the airport, where I had already booked our flights.Thankfully, I had also stopped to withdraw some cash since I thought we might need it on t
