Legally Bound To The Mafia Boss

“Such a weak woman,”

She belittled herself, how could she fall for him so easily, she knew the answer to her own question, it was hard not to love him when he was the most caring person she has ever known, he worked his way into her heart even though she had built a wall over it, how could she not love him when he was the only person who has truly cared for her and cared about her needs, she could lie and say it was just gratitude to him that she felt but what would she gain from lying to herself, of course she wasn’t going to admit it to him, he warned her not to fall for him and she wasn’t about to dump her feelings on him, she just wanted all this problems to be over and for him to come back to her, she would love him in her heart and show him with her actions and when it would be time to say goodbye, she would do so knowing she experienced what it was like to love someone and she would take that feelings with her and cherish it forever. she already knew it won’t be as easy as she was thinking about it now but still, she had more than a year to train herself for the moment that she would have to let go.

“We will be just fine,”

She assured herself, speaking for both her and Luciano and even Lily, she hoped from the depth of her heart that they will really be fine.

And just like that, Arielle spent the next two days waiting for Friday as Yoey the crazy idiot had promised her she can see her husband on Friday, she tuned in for every piece of news and so far, nothing was looking good for Luciano or the Siegel empire, his uncles were currently the ones trying to put things in place but they were failing at it so bad, it was like it gets worse every minute and their investors were even suing for damages, it was a horror movie and she just couldn’t bring herself to think about how much these things would be affecting Luciano mentally, there was no update about whether the charges against him would be dropped or not and his legal team gave a statement that didn’t look like it will help his cause, they said, the gun found at the scene of the crime did belong to him but he wasn’t the one that shot Don, she believed them of course, but her fear was if they will be able to prove that he really didn’t fire the shots that killed Don, she hoped and prayed they would.

Friday morning, she got ready in the hopes of meeting with Luciano and finding out if he was doing okay, of course, he would not be okay, she just wanted to reassure him that she would always be there for him and that she was rooting for him to win and get his life back together.

After she got ready, she waited for Yoey to show up but the wild man didn’t show up all morning, she almost gave up the thought of going to see Luciano when he finally showed up by three pm. when she saw him, she quickly went to grab her bag and phone.

“Let’s talk,”

He said as she waited for him expectantly, she so wanted to tell him to keep whatever he wants to say to himself and just take her to see Luciano, but she decided to listen since she didn’t want to do anything that would prevent him from taking her to her husband, she sat down and watched, he kind of looked nervous which got her wondering just what he wanted to speak to her about.

“I am listening,”

She urged after a long moment of silence.

“First of all, I am sorry I kept you waiting,”

He apologized.

“That’s not a problem, can you tell me what you want to talk to me about so that we can leave already, there is not much time left until it is dark,”

She responded impatiently.

“That’s the thing, Arielle, your husband doesn’t want you there, I am sorry but we are not going to see him, I am here because I need you to sign some important document,”

Yoey announced and Arielle got up from her seat in anger. Yoey pushed a file in front of her.

“What do you mean you can’t take me to him again and what’s this that you want me to sign?”

Arielle yelled in anger, tossing her bag and phone on the chair, she turned back to Yoey who didn’t even seem bothered by her outburst which got her even angrier, here she has been waiting for him to show up all day only for him to come and tell her he wasn’t taking her to Luciano again, he made her wait three days before he told her there was a change of plans and now he wanted her to sign something she had no idea of, she glared at him waiting for his answer.

“Arielle, can you calm down, really shouting or throwing tantrums won’t help either of us, it is true that I can’t take you to see your husband and it is also true that I promised to take you there but when I went to see him, he strongly instructed that I don’t bring you to him, now I can’t go against what the boss wants, I work for him and not you,”

He stayed, the fact that he had gone to see Luciano after he told her he would go see him today made it impossible for her to believe what he is saying, he was lying to her and she would be a fool to believe his lies again.

“Liar, you are lying, if you are not going to take me to him, I will find my way there myself.

She let out in a determined voice, she went to grab her bag and her phone and started walking but his voice stopped her.

“I can’t take you to him but you can speak to him on the phone and hear him say the words himself, but first, you have to sign this, the sooner you sign, the sooner you get to speak to him,”

He said pointing at the file he had kept on the table, she wondered what the content was and why she had to sign.

“Just like you don’t answer to me, I don’t answer to you either, I am not signing anything and I will go see my husband,’

She fired at him.

“Good luck trying to get past the gate then,”

He called after her and she stopped, she had forgotten about the men at the gate and how they had not let her pass the gate two days ago she let out a frustrated groan, turned around, and walked back to where Yoey was, she picked up the file he wanted her to sign, if she couldn’t go see him, she would at least hear his voice, as she didn’t want to sign anything without reading, she sat down and opened the file, her mouth opened in horror as she saw the contents of the file.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
