Semua Bab The Mafia Devil's Princess: Bab 111 - Bab 120

Bellgrave Cemetery was the kind of place where even the wind whispered secrets it shouldn’t.The car’s headlights cut through the mist as I pulled up just past the old rusted gates. A shiver crawled down my spine the moment I stepped out, gravel crunching beneath my boots. Midnight had arrived quietly, but the air screamed with tension—sharp, watchful, as though the dead themselves were holding their breath.I shouldn’t have come alone.But something in that note… something in the way “proof” was written had clawed into me. This wasn’t some petty game. Whoever sent it knew things no outsider should. And if there was even a chance they were telling the truth about my father’s death, I had to know.I pocketed my keys and slipped my phone into my coat. No signal. Of course.“Brilliant,” I muttered, my breath curling in the cold air.Graves stretched out in crooked lines across the hill, some leaning as if trying to whisper into their neighbors. I followed the path illuminated by the moon

It was already the dead of night before I came home. The mansion’s gates were still guarded, and I had to bribe the gang members to even let me in. The lights of the mansion were all shut off, leaving the entire structure, even the gardens, engulfed in total darkness.I arrive on the doorsteps, fumbling to get my copy of the keys that Sebastian had given me many nights before. I push the key into the hole, twist and quickly sneaked inside.The sound of the creaking door immediately echoed through the large halls. I head in, trying to keep as much noise as possible. As I neared the living room, the lamp suddenly lights up, illuminating the entire marbled floors. The light blinded me for a while and I see Sebastian on the couch, his knees crossed. His eyes glowed a menacing shade of blue.“You’re late.”“H-Hey, Seb.” I stuttered to greet him back. “You’re still awake.”He raised an eyebrow and stood up, his shadow casting over the walls as he towered me, “Of course I’d be awake. You we

“Kierra Evans! You cannot do this to us!”I listened to the constant wailing of Desmond’s relatives as they attacked me with childish insults and begging. Their voices became so irritating that I had to shut down my brain and focus my attention else so I would bore myself with their vocals.Though, I must admit, hearing them beg for me not to strip them all of their position felt like music to my ears.“Please! And you-!” one pointed to Alessio. “You’re her lawyer aren’t you? Isn’t this illegal for her to terminate us this quickly?!”I rolled my eyes. Alessio stood up and answered the lady with a smile of thorns, “It is actually legal for her to terminate all of you. You are accomplices to corruption and according to the labor code, individuals who have breached the trust and showed willful disobedience are subject to this kind of consequence.”I picked up the remote and turned on the projector, showing everyone in the board meeting the embezzled funds and to whose accounts they were

“Kierra?”I quickly shut the book off and tossed it into the box as Sebastian knocked on my door. My heart was pounding way too much for me to even hear what he had said.“Did you hear me? Are you there?”I grabbed the remote from the desk that allowed me to unlock the door, “C…Come in!”The knob unlocks and I watched as he entered the room with a smile. “May I come in, madam CEO?”I rolled my eyes at him while I gathered my composure, “Whatever, Sebastian.”He walked towards the desk and I quickly slipped the box into the safe with my boot. It makes a thud as the safe door closes.“What was that?” he raised an eyebrow.“I knocked my knees in the desk,” I pretended to carress the part. “Shall we go home?”Sebastian sat on the chair in front of me and roamed his eyes across the room, inspecting it himself. I crossed my arms. “Are you planning on designing the place?”He smirks, “Maybe I am.”“Well I hope it won’t be a ton of hidden cameras.”He walks towards the glass wall behind me.

“I had the weirdest thing happen to me today,” I hopped into the car and handed Sebastian his drink. He took it with one hand as he closed the door for me.“What?”“I bumped into someone,” I settled myself in and made myself comfortable. “I almost spilled your drink on him, good thing he caught me in time.”“He?” Sebastian raised an eyebrow while starting the engine. “Just now?”“Yeah,” I tried to scan my eyes across my surroundings, looking for the man I was speaking of. “I didn’t expect he’d steady me out. For his age, he is quite strong.”“For his age?” Sebastian now looked at me with a suspicious look. “What are you talking about?”“He was old,” I took a sip of my drink. “Exquisite taste of fashion too.”Sebastian rolled his eyes and started driving. We talked about a few things, including picking up Tobias from school. The school he enrolled in was already in the city, so it didn’t take that long for us to arrive.“Sebastian, can I ask you something?”“Hm?” he answered, while loo
