Chapter 39
CHASE DRAVEN GOTTI
I stopped and parked the car in the garage and turn my head to look at Calista who was already asleep and is looking very pale.
She looks like someone who just got her blood drinched out of her body but she’s still beautiful.
I don’t blame her for looking very tired, I guess hearing that she’s suffering from heart failure is the least thing she had expected to hear.
“You have to be nice to her and don’t make her freak out” I recalled the doctor’s words.
I sigh and lend back on the car, it’s night already and having her asleep in my car means I have to carry her to her room.
I turn again to look at her face , Recently I just can’t concentrate without seeing her face.
It’s like she have a pill on me that I can’t resist. I haven’t really been concentrating on important stuffs as my mind keep drifting to her.This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.
She’s just my slave but why won’t I stop thinking about her?
Maybe I wasn’t actually thinking about her, maybe I’m just focusing on the fact that she’s adorable and love to stand up for herself. She never lets anyone understimate her no matter who you are.
I opened the door and got down then walk over to her side and opened the door, I slowly carried her out in bridal style then shut the door again and carried her inside the house , to her room.
Laying her on her bed, I used the blanket to cover her and then I touched her forehead. She’s down with fever again.
I walk out of the room and climb downstairs then take a towel and put it inside the fridge then went to grab some drink.
Two minutes later, I went and bring out the towel then walk back upstairs to her room, I slowly place the towel on her forehead to help reduce her hot temperature.
I pulled out a chair and sat down next to her as I watch her sleep. Even though she’s annoying, she’s still a cute little thing.
Ever since the death of Madison, I have not seen nor imagined myself being possessive of another lady.
Rowan might have been right when he said I’m acting possessive.
But of course I have to, she belongs to me and not to someone else, we don’t have to have something going on between us before I can act possessive seeing her hanging out with some men.
She’s in my house and she’s serving me, she should know that.
Having her hang out as she likes might give her a privilege to believe I can’t do anything and Ofcourse, try to escape.
I shake my head negatively and stood up pulling the chair back, I must have been thinking nonsense lately.
I’m only feeling bad for her and that’s all. I opened the door and walk out just in time to see Tyrell standing at my door about to knock.
“Boss” he called immediately he saw me and then walk up to me.
“You look tired. Is she Okay?” He asked me staring at Calista’s door after seeing me walk out from it , I nodded and walk inside my room with him thrilling behind me.
“She’s fine. You’ve a report to make?” I asked him and sat on the bed removing my shoe.
“No, just wanted to check on you. You’ve been out with her all day” He said giving me a suspicious look.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” I asked him and he just smiled and walk to sit next to me.
Tyrell might be just one of my soldiers but he’s like a brother to me. Sometimes he acts tough and sometimes he acts childish.
But one thing about him is that he’s observert and can notice anything before anyone else does and that’s like one of the reason he’s my best man.
“Is anything going on?” He whispered and I punch his shoulder as he wince laughing.
“I have better things to do. We just went to the hospital, nothing else happened” I explained to him and he nodded and looked away.
“She slept off in the car right?” He asked.
“Yes. Guess she’s tired.”
“She must having suddenly feel sick when the doctor told her she’s having heart failure… Girls are just too fragile” he laments.
“There’s nothing for her to be scared of. Is not like there’s no solution, the doctor conducted a test on her and we’ll go back in a week to get her medicines. ”
Tyrell didn’t say another word as he just stood up and tuck his hand inside his trouser pocket.
“Will you tell her parents?” He asked all of the sudden and I turned sharply to look at him.
I looked away and bring out a pack of cigarette from my cupboard then take out a stick and light it.
“Why should I tell them? Their daughter is with me now, anything that happens have to stay in here with me until her days are over. Even if I’m to tell her parents, she’s too soft and won’t want her parents to know about it”
“You seem to know her too well…. Is she that tempting and interesting?” He winked at me.
“Shut up” I told him and he nodded then smiled.
“Tyrell….” I called him and he turned to look at me.
“Mmh?”
“During Rowan’s ceremony, did you notice anything usual?” I asked him.
The place was crowded and I have to greet a lot of people who I haven’t seen for long time so I didn’t have much chance to pay attention to the surroundings.
“Anything usual?”
“Yes. With my thoughts, I think our rivals must have come in during the ceremony either to take notes about things or to act normal so they don’t get pointed out” I explained to him and he nodded in understanding.
“The one person I couldn’t really keep a trace about his behavior at the ceremony is Grayson… ”
I turned to look at him. Gray is my best friend so he must have been trying to look out and see if there’s anyone acting suspicious too, that doesn’t mean he know anything though. He knows better to always keep notes of things even if I didn’t ask him to.
“Why him?”
“He look so uneasy and tense and he’s the type that always cringe to you but during the ceremony, he seems to be avoiding you”
“No he’s not, we greeted before the ceremony began, the place is too crowded so we didn’t actually have time for each other” I explained.
Tyrell didn’t say anything and just nodded but I can see from his face that he have his doubts.
When Tyrell observes something, it’s always hard for someone to try to convince him to let go of his suspense not until he discovers it on his own and so because of it , I just try to switch the topic.
“My uncle came to the party” I announced and he seems to be alert.
“Godfather Edward? Didn’t he disappear years ago? Or was it twenty years ago? . Why was he there…?”
“That’s what I want to know. I’m pretty sure he must have gone to see my Father. You’ve to inform our indoor soldiers to keep an eye on him. He can’t just disappear and appear again acting like everything is alrighty ”
“I’m sure he have something cooking” Tyrell said and I just patted his shoulder.
“I’ll leave now and perhaps, I’ll inform the soldiers tomorrow morning”
“kay” I smiled at him and he walk out.
I sighed and remove my clothes as I walked into the bathroom to take my bath.
With the water running down on my body my mind suddenly drift away.
I walk out of the bathroom and walk to my closet to bring out my pajamas , I put it on then walk to sit on the bed. I pull out my laptop and turned it on.
Trying to work on some documents but I wasn’t concentrating so I just shut it down and lay back on the bed.
Ever since Madison’s demise I haven’t really been in “ZGDX” company because it remind me do much of her.
I wasn’t prepared to start up the company or anything, I was just focused on my Mafia business but Madison had talked me into starting up a company which I made her the manager and the company had been built under her watch and taste.
So since after her death, I haven’t even know or care how the company is being managed or how much is made or lose. But I think is high time I focus.
It’s high time I accept the fact that she’s gone and won’t be back again. The only way I can make her rest in peace is just to avenge her killer.
But to continue thinking that I can’t move on without her, it’s time to let go…
