Lahat ng Kabanata ng Cosa Nostra Heiress: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

Nanlaki ang mga mata ko sa gulat ng makita ko ang aking ama na narito. Sinubukan siyang barilin ng mga tauhan ni Ronald pero naiwas nila ito.Bigla akong nakaramdam ng kaba pero nilakasan ko ang loob ko."I don't want to go with them," I said, my voice tight. The mobsters looked at me, their eyes hard and watchful. "Don't worry," one of them said, "we'll protect you." “Puwede tayong dumaan dito, may underground way lahat ng kwarto.” Sabi ng isang tauhan ni Ronald.Napansin kong naglakad siya papunta sa sahig na malapit sa mini cabinet. Nakita kong binuksan niya ito kaya nagulat rin ako. Hindi ito halata at hindi mo talaga makikita. Binuksan niya ito at isa-isa kaming pinapasok doon habang ang isa sa kanila ay nagbabantay sa may pintuan."Faster, they're coming!" Ronald's mobster yelled, his eyes fixed on the hole in the door. "Protect them," the other mobster said, his voice rough. "We'll stay here, others are out there. Just go, escape.""But what about you?" I asked, my voice sha

Tatlong araw na ang nakalilipas simula noong lumipat kami dito. May tauhan si Ronald na inutusan niyang pumasok para malaman lahat ng mga galaw at impormasyon sa kanila. Sinabi nito kay Ronald na hindi nila kayang angkinin ang mansiyon na iyon sapagkat nakapangalan ito sa kaniya. Dumating ito bigla at hinahanap si Ronald kaya pinapasok na lang nila ito. Dinala nila ito sa may sala kung saan nakaupo siya sa couch.“Boss, it’s all under your name, based on your father’s last will and testament. They can’t just take it, they need your signature to transfer any of it,” his mobster explained, emphasizing the point with a pointed look.“Yeah, well, that’s good because that’s my property,” he replied, a slow, evil grin spreading across his face. Lumalabas na konektado si Ronald sa isang politiko sa gobyerno. Mayroon itong mga security cameras na kontrolado pa rin ni Ronald at maaari niya itong ipadala kung gugustuhin niya. This mobsters, who spied on them and reported everything to Ronald,

Bumaba ako ng hagdan at pagkalabas ko ay may nakita akong itim na kotseng parating dito. Nagtaka ako kung sino kaya naisipan kong utusan ang tauhan ko na tawagin si Ronald. Naglakad naman palabas si Ronald at sa nakikita ko ay nagkakawayan pa ang dalawa. Mukhang magkakilala sila at parang magkaibigan pa ang mga ito.Nang makalapit na ang sasakyan ay bumaba ang lalaki. Nakipagkamayan pa ito kay Ronald. "By the way, this is my wife, Airah," Ronakd said, gesturing towards me. The man looked at me and said, "Nice to meet you," offering his hand. I shook it, then slowly pulled away. "And this is my friend, Jacopo Lucchese, he's also from a pretty well-known organization," Ronakd continued, introducing him to me. "It's nice to meet you, Jacopo," I replied, and he just smiled. "They're so well-known, that makes the police always on their tail," Ronald joked, and they both chuckled.Naglakad na kami papasok sa loob at dinala niya ito sa living room. Sinabihan ako ni Ronald na iwanan muna

Binabakuran ako ni Ronald kahit pa sa harapan ng bata at pilit na pinapaalis ang kaibigan nitong si Jacopo pero siyempre nag-uutos pa rin siya ng mga tauhan niya na magimbestiga para naman alam namin ang gagawin kung sakaling mahanap muli kami ng sakim kong ama."Why did he still settle with that filthy old man? Maybe because if he dies, he's going to own his whole property including his men?" I asked myself, rolling my eyes as I remembered it again. “She looks like a goddess,” komento ni Jacopo habang nakatingin sa akin at parang bang inaasar nito si Ronald.Tumikhim naman ako. "You may leave now and go back where you came from," I uttered to Jacopo. "We're married," I showed my finger with a ring. “So, what's wrong with that?” nakangisi pang ngiti ni Jacopo.Nasisiraan na ba siya ng ulo? Ano bang ginagawa niya?Nakaramdam ng sobrang galit si Ronald at inutusan ang mga tauhan niyang ilabas ito. Wala na pang nagawa si Jacopo ng puwersahan siyang pinalabas at pinaalis. Tinutukan na r

Dahan-dahan itong umikot paharap sa amin habang nakaupo sa swivel chair. Ngumisi ito sa akin ng makita ako at nakita ko ang linyang peklat sa kaliwang mata niya. Nagulat ako at tila may bigla na lang lumilitaw sa aking ala-ala na hindi ko maintindihan. Tumayo ito at naglakad papunta sa direksyon namin."Oh, I didn't expect my son would bring you here." He said in a husky voice, circling around us. "Dad, you know my wife, right?" Ronald asked, his voice tight. "Yes,it is ," he replied, lighting a cigarette with a touch of his wrist. "Can you give us a minute alone?" he asked, his gaze sharp. Ronald glanced at the mobsters. "Let's go," he ordered, and they all followed. Ronald turned back to me, his eyes burning. "If he did anything to you, just tell me. I'll kill him right here in front of you, you hear me?" He said, his grip on my hands tightening. "But—" I started, but he cut me off, pressing his fingers against my lips. "No buts. I won't let anyone hurt my wife, not even my o
