The Undercover Bride (Mafia Escapade) のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Emily's Pov Barry had left my apartment even though it was hard to convince him that I was going to help Dominic gain his freedom back. I lay down on my bed that night thinking of what would have happened to me if Barry had not come to my rescue and it was all thanks to Dominic that I was still breathing. I needed to come up with a plan to help Dominic as quickly as possible because I wouldn't want to be labelled as a liar again. I miss Anita so much, and I couldn’t help but wonder how she would be feeling right now as she had been separated from her father again. In as much as I was doing my job as an agent, Dominic had been nothing but sweet to me. I couldn't hold down my feelings towards him anymore. I needed to keep to my promise this time. I stood up from my bed as I couldn't fall asleep with all these thoughts in my mind, plus the fear of having another intruder in my apartment. I walked to the kitchen which was still in a mess, and I opened the fridge. “shit!” The fri

Emily’s pov I sat in a dark corner of my apartment. My mind was filled with emotions, and my thoughts were racing with what I had uncovered from what Adam shared. I still didn’t want to believe that Dominic was involved in my father's death, for all I know or what I have believed was that my father died in the line of action while chasing a drug dealer. I never would have guessed that Dominic was that mafia who had murdered my father. Dominic betrayer cut deep. All the feelings I had growing for him were gradually turning into hatred, and I felt sick in my stomach for loving him and for not being able to recognize my father's killer. If this was true, and I have been prone to Dominic's game, then bringing Dominic and his entire network down would not be enough. I would have to destroy everything that he ever loved and cared for. As I mull over my next move, my phone buzzed on the bedside table. I delayed for a moment before answering the call. “Emily, it's Barry,” the voice fro

Emily pov It was around 8pm, I drove up to a deserted area and then stopped in front of an abandoned warehouse. It was the location where Barry had texted me to meet him. It was dark. I reached into my bag, took out a pistol, and hid it in my waistline at the back of my jeans trousers, covering it with my leather jacket. I came out of the car and looked around but I couldn't catch a glimpse of anyone around. I took out my phone and dialled Barry's number, just then I saw flashes of red lights coming from inside the warehouse. Barry answered the phone and in a cold tone, he spoke. ‘Walk towards the light’’ and before I could say anything he hung up. I hesitated for a while before following his instruction; I couldn't quite place mine on why he insisted we meet here in a deserted environment. I knew Barry didn’t trust me and that he wanted me dead, but I was certain that he wouldn’t harm me because Dominic had instructed him to protect me. As I walked in the direction of th

Emily pov“What the hell, Adam?”I cursed, getting all worked up. “I could have shot you”, I added, placing my gun on the centre table in my living room. I had been on edge the whole evening since my meeting with the gangs, not to talk of my new foundling who had been hovering around me. And now only to come home and meet Adam. “Calm down, Emi, you seem so worked up”, He said, giving me a weird smirk. I don't know what was so important that would make him come to my apartment this late. But I wasn't ready for any chit-chat. I just wanted to get high, come home and fall asleep, but I guess tonight isn't all for me. “What are you doing here?”….. “How the hell did you even get in my apartment in the first place?” I questioned, feeling all irritated. “Come on, Emi, have you forgotten that this apartment was from the bureau, and I was the one who found and registered this apartment under a false name to be able to protect your cover?” He blurted out egotistically. “So that gave you t

Dominic Pov I wasn't aware of the transfer, no one had said anything to me. The whole day had been so quiet, I hadn't gotten any calls or visits. Even Derrick had been nowhere around the cell. I thought Emily was working with Barry to get me out, and now what? I am about to be transferred to a maximum security prison. I moved away from the door and went down on my knees while placing my hands backwards. The officer came in and placed a cuff on my hands. And then he and another officer helped me back on my feet. “Where's Derrick?” I asked after I had turned to the officers. “Does he know about the transfer?” “Oh! you mean the officer on your payroll, right?”Adam uttered with a chuckle. “What do you take me for? You think I don't see everything going around in this building….. That I let you play the role of a king in this place doesn't mean that you are one. I make the rules of this game.” He added. “Screw you, Adam, don't think for one that you have won…enjoy it while it
