Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Mafia's Angel : Kabanata 31 - Kabanata 40

Martin entered the hall to see it packed with affluent people. They were too preoccupied with their conversation and greetings to notice his arrival.Even though it was not his first time attending an opening gala, the social atmosphere remained the same; nobody seemed to care about him, and even if they did, they would quickly brush him off with a litany of shady glances.He was nothing compared to his step brother who could easily pull it off. Donatello had always stolen the spotlight wherever he went and most times he made Martin feel even more inferior.As he made his way to the center of the hall, Martin caught sight of Julia standing alone. He smiled and licked his lips. He noticed she looked even more alluring with her slitted gown and flowing hair.“Don must have taken his time to groom her,” he said to himself with a smirk.As he got closer, he notice that Julia was constantly staring at someone, and when he turned to look, he saw his step brother dancing with Miss Sabrina V

When the vehicle arrived at the building, Julia jumped out and headed towards the entrance without waiting for her boss to open the door.Don got out of the car and stared at her as she walked away, wondering what had caused her to act that way.When he got in, he went straight to his office and sat down. He took out a cigar from his drawer, placed it in his mouth, and lit it.Don took a huff and exhaled deeply. He had a lot on his mind but could not concentrate. He was particularly disturbed by the fact that he had caught Martin and Julia in an engaging conversation.What topic could they have been discussing to demand that kind of expression?He had noticed she looked quite sad while talking to him, and now she just went straight to her room without a word.“Had Martin said something hurtful in some way to her?” he asked himself before taking another puff.Then he took a pause. What if it wasn't about Martin? What if it was about him?Suddenly, he smirked, “It can't be.” he muttered

Don arrived at the rooftop and went straight to the balcony area. He pulled out his cigar as he stared at the scene below.Using his lighter, he lit the cigar and placed it in his mouth. He inhaled slowly before puffing out. He needed to think clearly about his next plan. Time was running out, and if he did not plan ahead, he might have to deal with the consequences later.It has been several months since he last heard from his rival, the Moranos. But recently his men had been captured and he wondered who was behind it. The person must have a lot of nerve to want to provoke him.Was Martin the one behind the abduction? Don shook his head. He knew his brother was up to some mischief, but he wasn't sure if there was more to it.Then he remembered he had invited Martin over for a chat. It wasn't what he wanted, but he had to do it, at least to uncover the person behind that deed.“Boss?” Marcello called out to him.He turned to face his personal assistant who was standing face down.“You

Julia laid in her bed; it was her day off, so she slept in. She was exhausted from work and could not do anything but sleep.Soon, the alarm went off, and she hissed. She had forgotten to put it off. Grudgingly, she tossed to the side and slammed her hand on the object, putting it off, then she went to sleep. Few minutes later, she heard a knock on her door. This time she was really pissed off by the disturbance and she decided to ignore it. Then she heard the knock again and stood up to open it. Paloma stood in front of her with a smiley face, “Hello.”Julia sighed. "I planned to sleep in today. Why the disturbance?”"Oh, I apologize, but I just had to tell you this."“Spill it.” Julia said.“The boss has invited you for breakfast. You are to eat with him and he is waiting for you in the dining hall.” she explained.“The boss? Eat with me? When did all these start?” Julia asked inquisitively.Paloma shrugged then said, “I will leave you to get dressed.” and she turned to go.***Ju

Don paced back and forth in his room. It was already nighttime, but he was not feeling sleepy. Not yet. He had never felt so troubled like this before. When Sabrina returned, she assured him that she had spoken with Julia. However, he was not satisfied, not until he had confirmed that everything was fine with her. He had already concluded that Julia was angry to see him with Sabrina, which must have prompted her strange behavior towards him. Was it appropriate to confront her now? he asked himself. After some minutes of contemplation, he grabbed the door handle and opened it. “It is high time I clear the air,” he said to himself as he exited his room and walked towards the direction of Julia's room. *** Julia was not asleep. She could not close her eyes, and even when she tried, it hurt. Suddenly, she got up and walked to the window, she opened it and felt a waft of the cold air breeze past her face. It caressed her skin gently, prompting her to close her eyes and take a dee
