Semua Bab Hail the Mafia Queen: Bab 51 - Bab 60

Nothing was showing up anymore!I frantically searched my history to find the links I had just browsed in Karlo’s car, but everything was gone. When I searched his name again on Google, only his interesting and public facts, like his achievements, list of his companies, and education, were there. There was nothing about his parents. Nothing about the brutal murder.But it was just there before we even went to the mall!How could this possibly be deleted in just one day that has passed?This is so insane.We just got home from the mall. My body was so tired that I had to excuse I wanted to rest and not have dinner. Karlo and Timothy met in the dining hall and talked there, while I went upstairs and took a shower. In truth, I want to search for Karlo again and find out what had happened to his parents.Think about it – I have never met them… not even once. Nor his relatives. The only one I know who is very close with him is Timothy. No one else. I am aware that he is also like me, leadi

I spent the whole day in the office reviewing the projects after I called Karlo on the phone. He was also busy because he was working on a resort in Pangasinan and needed to meet some of the investors. When I finished signing two of the projects, I browsed through Google, where I could see potential universities where I could enroll Melanie.Whenever we talk, I can analyze her words and distinguish her wisdom about every topic. I am more educated than her, but she could have a better future if she just had a diploma to get a better job rather than just being a maid in our mansion.“Dara?” I called through the landline to reach my secretary in her office. “Can you please check your WhatsApp? I want you to call someone from De La Salle University and mention that I want to have a conversation with them.”“Yes, Mrs. Rodriguez,” she said.I hung up the landline and continued taking care of the documents. After a few minutes, a private call went through my line. It was from the registrar o

“Do you know Jennie?” Samantha asked Taylor.Taylor crossed her arms with a bitchy face. “Yes, because like you, she also ruined my day by bumping into me first thing in the morning,” she said with a high note in her voice, almost singing it like a song. “What are you doing here? To clean?”“Are you deaf, or are you just retarded?” I retaliated sarcastically. “Samantha just mentioned that if the combat clothes would fit me or not, I’d tell her. If you have common sense, wouldn’t you think I would be a Red Cartel member like you?”Her jaw dropped. Samantha chuckled beside me. I rolled my eyes and shook my head in dismay, facing the locker where the combat clothes were located. Taylor marched towards us with a disgruntled face, but before she could even reach me, Samantha already blocked her way.“Think twice before you do a stupid thing against Jennie,” Samantha warned Taylor. “You would receive another punch on the nose, and no surgery would be able to treat it.”Taylor and Samantha

I wanted to feel the cozy carpet on my feet, so I took off my home slippers and walked barefoot. My hands instinctively touched his belongings, from his cabinet to books and valuables on the side table. There was a flat-screen television in front of the bed that was just turned off.I opened the curtains from his window. It revealed a thousand stars in my sight. I placed my hand on the transparent glass, imagining that I was touching everyone of it.“Minerva?”I was so immersed in watching the heavenly stars above that I didn’t notice Karlo had exited the washroom. When I faced him, I nearly gagged as I witnessed his upper body. His bottom was just covered with a grey towel, the main reason why his abs were plastered in front of me.This is not the first time I have seen him topless, but please, this is very different when I have feelings for him! It makes me want to…And here I am again with my dirty thoughts!“O-Oh, sorry,” I stammered and hastily closed the curtains. “I should not

Karlo: I’m coming…I paused reading the statistics on my laptop when my phone vibrated, and I saw Karlo’s text. Without even thinking twice, I stood up and went to the washroom with the makeup kit that I took from my bag.Blush on.Lip gloss.Eyeliner.Comb.Perfume.I had to enhance my makeup and fix my hair. After that, with the final touch, I bathed myself with my Chanel perfume. I looked sideways in front of the mirror to check if I was missing something.I think I’m good to go now.At the right time, someone knocked on the door of my office. I tiptoed on the floor as if my footsteps would be heard from the outside. I slowly creaked the door open. It revealed Dara’s face.“Hello, ma’am. Someone is outside. He is saying he is your friend?” my assistant explained.My face went disgruntled as I slowly rolled my eyes in disappointment. “Friend, he says, huh?” I mumbled and widely opened the door. “Okay. Let him come in, then.”I wanted to lash out as I turned my back on the door. How
