《The Mafia’s Regret》全部章節：第 71 章 - 第 80 章

Bridge Vincent was calling everyone to come and eat. I went up to my mother who was talking to some of the other ladies there and told her it was time to eat. She nodded and turned looking past me at my grandfather who was waving us over. He wanted to hurry up and get in line and not be at the end. I’m sure he somehow thought the food would all be gone if he wasn’t first in line. My grandfather reminded me of the granddad on the movie Christmas Vacation. He was gruff and rude half the time.. except to me of course. And he was the kind to say ‘I’ve got to eat so I can take my back pill!’ just like the guy on the movie. I looked around for Emery but I didn’t see her. She’d wandered off earlier after seeing Elijah hanging all over that bitch Caddy. I had no idea she wasn’t aware of their history. As far as actual girlfriends went … she’d been the only one for Elijah. Sure he had girls left and right ever since I’d known him .. they all had. But nothing serious .. up until her. O

Elijah. I waited as long as I could. I’d scarfed my food down in record time. And even though I knew my dad would eventually tell me where Emery went.. I still hacked into the tracing device we put on her phone. I just had to get Oliver to tell me the code and after me threatening to stab him… he finally did. She was at her old house?? What the fuck was she doing there? She never went there. I stood .. ready to go get her. I gave my dad a look that said don’t even try me. It hadn’t been an hour yet .. but it was close. Frankie saw me and immediately jumped up as well. Then Oliver came too. But I was surprised when I saw Bridge stand up. “I’m coming…. Don’t try to stop me.” She said then walked around us, leaving us no room to argue. Caddy stood up then … and no way was she coming. “Where y’all running off to?” She smiled at me. “Uhhh we’ve got to .. take care of something. We’ll be back later don’t worry.” I said. She laughed and shook her head. “Still always on the go ar

Oliver This is not at all how I expected Thanksgiving to go. I had been looking forward to eating the food and getting to see everyone for days now. It was always nice when we could get together and enjoy normal things … leaving the stress and worry from work for another day. But mostly I was looking forward to the food. I didn’t much get to enjoy it though because I was worried about Emery the entire time. She’s disappeared…. and Vincent won’t tell us where she is but .. at least he knows I guess. And I’m not sure but from what I can tell this was all Elijah’s fault. I shouldn’t have opened my mouth and told Emery all that stuff about him and Caddy. But I also didn’t know she wasn’t aware that Elijah and Caddy’s relationship even existed. But now I feel like shit about it. But Elijah shouldn’t have been over there hugging her .. and letting her hang all over him. Especially when he’s talking about marrying Emery. I mean .. I get it to an extent. They were together for years and

Emery I paused. Telling the story was bringing back all the details. But I wasn’t looking forward to remembering the next part. Being here in my old house was jogging my memory to an extent too. I could see everything playing out in my head .. as if I were watching a movie. And as much as I love horror movies — I hated this one. “Take your time Emery…” Elijah said. I don’t know what to even think when it comes to him right now. I know he’d never hurt me on purpose. But that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t do it accidentally. He just did…. “You don’t have to do this …” Oliver said. “Yes. She does.” Frankie told him. And he was right. “I walked out there .. at first I wasn’t even afraid. I mean I was afraid my parents would wake up and find me not in my bed. I was scared they’d get mad at me but that was it. I ran .. trying to hurry. And I thought I knew where I fell but when I got out there .. I couldn’t remember. I just kept going further and further into the woods.” I said.

Jasper I was still staring at her like she’d grown an extra head. On the one hand.. it wasn’t as if I’d never seen her this way. Happy and excited .. full of life. She was like that .. before. Although she was kind of quiet then.. after her dad died anyway. Before he passed .. this was her normal personality. But then something changed in her. I don’t know what it was. Maybe just getting older. What was it with these women doing 180s and changing everything on a whim?? The problem was it had been so long since I’d seen this side of Vivian I didn’t know if I could trust it or not. She’s done too much manipulating for me to trust her. Suddenly she made a face … like she smelled something awful. Then she got up and took off running to the closest bathroom. Her other luxury bathroom was in with her bedroom. Her fucking guest bathroom was nicer than my entire apartment that I kept on the side. When I’d told her I’d put her up in a nice apartment I wasn’t joking. And that’s exactly w
