All Chapters of The Mafia's Slave: Claimed By My Stepbrother: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

KEITHMia looked very surprised, but there was no way I would fall for her obvious lies, and because I didn’t want her to feel uncomfortable, I had stayed quiet.However, I wanted her to shop for some new clothes.It dawned on me that since I brought her to my house, I hadn’t gotten clothes for her. So far, she had been managing what Tessa could find.I was slightly disappointed at myself for slacking in that area, but then again, there had been a lot I had been dealing with lately to even think of clothes, and Mia never said anything. If she had, I would have brought all the boutique owners to the house to have her make her choice.I led Mia into the boutique.“You heard what the doctor said. Your scars are going to disappear, so you can pick up whatever clothes you like,” I told her.Her eyes pooled with tears, and I wondered if I had said something wrong again. With Mia, I was always saying and doing the wrong things. “No, you didn’t,” she said, shaking her head and trying to keep

JACKIEI would have retired for the night already, but I waited for two calls; one from Beth Zachary and another from Bertha.However, when I heard a knock on my door, I knew that it was Saint.I went over to the door and yanked it open, and I wasn’t wrong. The sight of him repulsed me so much that I felt as though I was going to throw up.Worse, Saint had a disgusting and unattractive smile on his face.“What do you want here?” I asked him harshly.“Are we back to being enemies now?” Saint asked, unperturbed by my harshness.“We were never friends,” I reminded him.“Ouch,” Saint said, feigning hurt around his chest area. “But that wasn’t the impression I got when I was pounding into you making you cum,” he added lustily.I ground my teeth, annoyed and embarrassed at the same time.“Saint, I regret that day with everything in me. If I could turn back the hands of time, I wouldn’t even let you breathe anywhere close to me, much more letting those filthy hands of yours touch me,” I snee

KEITHMia’s fingers with mine made me remember just how my mum used to hold me when I was a little boy.The memory flashed across my head the moment her fingers touched mine, and that was why I froze in shock.Mia noticed and pulled her fingers away instantly.“I am sorry,” she quickly said.I mentally berated myself for acting like that because I had made her pull away, but that was because I didn’t expect that she would attempt to hold me.She had never done it before.“I shouldn’t have,” she added, sounding as though she was feeling guilty for holding my hand.I wasn’t certain if I liked the feeling of it. The truth was that memories of my parents made me hardened, and unhappy, and enraged, which was why I buried all of it. If someone else; another woman had held my hand like that, I would have snapped at her and never set my eyes on her again, but I couldn’t do that with Mia.“Hold my hand again,” I found myself commanding her.Without questioning my order, Mia reached for my fing

KEITHAfter the call with Jackie, my blood continued to boil with rage.“How dare Saint?” I growled, pacing around my study.Mia and I had been taking a walk when I saw Jackie’s message, and it wasn’t until I was even back to my study that I realized that she had sent the same message the night before.I took Saint like a brother, and he was my best friend. Even though he had been a complete nuisance, I still allowed myself to become friends with him. I had even trusted him way more than I trusted Jackie, and yet, he could go behind my back and see Edward?“And he didn’t bother to mention it when he came here,” a voice in my head said to me.According to what Jackie said, they had been meeting up before that time, which could only mean that Saint was hiding something from me; otherwise, he could have told me the first day Edward showed up at the Institute.How did he even know the Institute?The last time I had any form of communication with Edward Zachary was during his wedding recep

JACKIE “Hello,” I said into the phone as I picked up the first ring.It was Beth Zachary.“Jackie, they are meeting up right away,” Beth said hastily into the phone. “Eddie just left the house now, and he is on his way to see him,” she said, referring to Saint.I got up immediately.“Where are they meeting up?” I asked Beth as I opened my office door and stepped out.The good thing was that I could actually step out of my office without being seen because of how it was situated.“Um…Eddie didn’t say it over his conversation with Saint,” Beth responded at the beginning.Gosh, incompetent people!I wasn’t even done dealing with Bertha, and yet, Mia’s mother was making things worse. There were only a few resemblances that she had with Mia, but one thing was sure; Mia seemed smarter than her mother.“And what am I supposed to do with this half-baked information?” I asked her without bothering to mask my annoyance.Just as I finished speaking, I caught sight of Saint’s truck driving out
