บททั้งหมดของ HIS: The Mafia King's Property: บทที่ 91 - บทที่ 100

Marco's POV “Don…” Elara's driver coughed, the rough sound felt like he was sputtering blood. It made my heart jump. Whatever it was had to be grave. First, I had never gotten a call from him on any occasion. All he ever did was simply drive Elars and the kid out and back in silence. Now, he was in a terrible state. “Speak if you don't want your tongue slit.” I rambled.“The child has been kidnapped.” He mumbled with what seemed to be his last breath. I froze. For the first time in my life, I went numb. My brain spilled all over the place, finding a good grasp on my reaction, but I was numb. “Ma'am Elara…” His ragged breathing pounded on the phone's speaker. “She is inside… Maybe death… I don't know… But there were gunshots.”Holy heck!!!My brain snapped hard, dragging me out of my catatonic state. I spun and stopped, still fuzzy, still lost. “Location.” My cold tone blared in his ear drum. “Her friend's place.” That was all I needed. I ended the call and rushed back into my

Marco’s POV The door silently opened. I perched on the frame, my dark eyes on Evelyn, watching, listening to her whispering. She curled like a toad, pressed to the wall, with her phone trapped to her ear as she murmured and sniffled. “I can't…I hate myself, God… It's not okay…” She stopped to sniffle. “I shouldn't have accepted to look over Violet… Jeez…” She puffed. “I'm leaving town…”A short silence followed. As if she learned of my presence, she stopped all she was doing and slowly turned. When our eyes met, she gasped, breath caught in her throat. “Let me… Let me call you back.”For a few seconds, my hands remained crossed, hanging along my body. I finally pulled away from the door and strolled in. A vacant seat was by her bedside, good enough to read all her reactions. “Marco…”“Only Elara calls me that.” My low groan was more than enough warning. “Mr. Conti to you or better still, Don.”She nodded like a moron. Seeing I was here for her, she sat up, knees drawn up to her ch

Marco’s POV “The second pie.” I gave a coded response to Kaid. “First, the lady Evelyn spoke to earlier today isn't her mum.” He dropped the bombshell. “She is a lady, the same age as herself. They also date back to being childhood besties until they separated for their American dreams.” He paused rapping, and I hummed, giving him a signal to go on. “” Also, she isn't relocating to her hometown.” He spilled more secrets. “They plan on leaving the country for Africa, far away from here. And their flight is set in twenty-four hours.” My hand clenched around my phone, about to snap it in halves. “They got a dream apartment of 350k dollars, including other luxury items her peanut salary can't afford.”My eyes fell on Elara’s face. She was slowly drifting asleep. I lowered my voice to a whisper. “Who is the sender?” “He's very discreet. The transaction was done via Bitcoin wallet.” He sighed. “It would take a while to crack.”“Be there soon.” I dropped the call. Elara had now falle

Marco’s POV A call from Kaid made my heart skip. “We've trailed the vehicle to a remote area. We're close to their hideout.” I pulled away from the window in a swift response, the phone still pressed to my ear.“Drop all information. I'm on my way.” I groaned into the phone and ended it. Elara sat up, eyes on me as she tried to make out the reason for my reaction, her ears alert. “Marco…” She jumped down from the bed, reaching out to me. “Go home.” I dished out a stern plea.“Look, I…”I retreated as if she was a plaque. Pain sliced through her face as if she felt humiliated. Such a good actor. “Don't touch me, Elara.” I sighed and dodged her hand. “Go home.” She stood, speechless, eyes teary as she watched me leave. Dr. Schwartz and the nurse were standing outside of the door. I signaled for them to go on, and gripped Schwartz’s arm before he could get in. “Send her home right away.” My eyes feasted on him. “And don't let her see her friend.”Again, he got the coded message

Marco's POV 48 Hours Later.“Papa.”The tiny angelic voice I'd give my all for, made me spin in its direction.My heart jumped with joy on spotting her up on the bed, with her charming little smile on her tired sleepy face. Her eyes looked brighter. I abandoned Dr. Schwartz and rushed over to her bedside. My arms pulled her in a gentle hug, careful not to break her tender frame. I smooched kisses all over her face, sniffing her in like I couldn't get enough.She giggled like I tickled her, always so merry. Her tiny hands ran along my face to block the kisses. I continued, enjoying our moment. The drugs still had subtle effects on her as she lazily leaned in my arms, giving up the fight.“Violet,” I palmed her face and heaved a soft sigh of relief. I made her look at me, my thumb stroked her cheek and chin. “My Vee.” She grinned, innocently revealing her canines. I was never this close to her. It explained why Elara was always jumpy when I got around the little girl. “Papa will nev
