Her Mafia Lord

CHAPTER Seventy Two

Imade had been notably been absent around the house and it had Giovanni wondering where she was always at.

On this particular day, Giovanni was going through some papers, when he got a call from Bianca. This would be the first time Bianca would be calling him on an occasion when he wasn’t expecting her calls.

“Hello?”

“What are the odds that I would be expecting calls from you” Giovanni had smiles on his face.

“To be honest with you, I don’t know why I had called. I just found myself particularly interested in just calling you” Bianca indicated with a smile of her own.

“Where is your husband?” Bianca cringed at the word ‘husband’ that Giovanni had used to describe Amore.

“Out ofcourse. Ever since the Buddy election stuff, he had been notably changing his priorities” Bianca wasn’t sad about it, infact it gave her reasons to be happy.

“That’s bad. So, seeing that your darling husband is quite busy, why don’t we hang out…. You know, get old memories about ourselves” Without a doubt, Bianca missed talking to Giovanni and the only thing holding her back from not being in his arms was Amore, who had her baby.

“When would you want us to meet and I do hope you are aware Amore has eyes everywhere” Giovanni chuckled at the statement.

“He had eyes everywhere but couldn’t stop us from meeting at the bar” Bianca laughed out at the situation.

“You know, thinking of it now, I believe the only person aware of our identity back then was Romeo” Giovanni pointed out.

Bianca eyes widened in realization; how had she not noticed the way Romeo smiled at her whenever she was with him. He had on several occasions tried to drop subtile clues that she hadn’t managed to pick them up.

“That sneak asshole” Bianca commented. She wondered where he was at the moment.

“So, would our outing be possible?” Giovanni asked.

“I don’t think Amore is coming home anytime soon, this means one thing, we could hang out as you had wished” Giovanni smiled in content knowing that it would be memorable having Bianca with him.

“Alright then, we are going to have a great time, I am certain about that” Giovanni stated before Bianca hanged up.

He dropped his phone and stood up from his working desk to stare our at the window; He couldn’t deny that these past month of realizing that Bianca was actually the mother of his kid, he had suddenly caught intense feelings for her.

His phone suddenly buzzed and he checked the caller’s identity to note that it was his Tina on the other side of the phone.

“Yeah?”

“You won’t believe who just called” Tina stated.

“Who?”

“Buddy! He said he wants to see me”

“For what exactly?”

“I don’t know, I guess I would have to find out”

********

It has been close to thirty minutes of Buddy and Amore waiting for Tina to arrived. The latter had booked the meeting, hoping to see if he could come to terms with her over the presidential bid.

After some time, the door opened and a ravishing looking Tina entered the booked restaurant, with escort at every side.

When she gazed at Buddy, Tina smiled and approached the table.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

“I am beginning to think you were not going to come” Buddy mentioned as Tina took her seat gracefully.

“Oh! Come of it, I am a woman and you should know by now that it is courtesy to wait for a woman and not the other way round” She finished speaking and fixed her sight on Amore, who was also looking at her intently.

Buddy coughed, hoping to break the tension that seemed to be brewing up between the two as they locked eyes on each other.

“Anyways, the reason I called you here is to discuss stuffs with you” Buddy stated, leaning closer to meet Tina.

“What type of stuff are we talking about?” Tina asked, her eyes still on Amore.

“That you should drop from the presidential race, and contest for the Governorship elections of New York. Carl and I here can easily arrange for you to win” Tina turned her gaze to look at Buddy and she suddenly erupted into laughter.

“You sure have some big balls, coming to tell me this crap right before my face. How would you even think I would succumb to this stupid offer?” Amore cleared his throat and said

“Listen Tina, you and I may not be on good terms, but I will urge you to take this deal, for your own sake. If it passes by, you would not see it again” Amore warned.

“And why should I accept such from both of you? If your friend here has some balls, then let’s meet at the poll” Tina stood up and was about heading out.

“Tina!” Buddy called, causing her to halt in the process but she didn’t turn around to look at him. Buddy stood up to his feet and approached her, leaning in close to her neck area and inhaling her scent.

“I can do things to you that would make you hate yourself” He threatened, while Tina arched her neck forward, urging him to go on.

“Just accept the offer and let’s do this stuffs in peace. We both don’t want violence for our respective crew and the world to know our name” He added.

Tina turned around, staring at Buddy’s lip and leaning close to be inches away from kissing him and whispered.

“If it’s violence you want, I am the queen of flames” Buddy shot his eyes open upon hearing what she said.

“And oh! You have a boner” he looked down at his trouser to see a huge budge and looked up to see Tina leaving. Buddy groaned in frustration

*****

Giovanni had chosen the beach for his outing with Bianca for it brought various memories that he hoped she would be able to see.

When Bianca arrives, Giovanni could not take his eyes off her body. For someone who had given birth, she looked beautiful.

“Like what you see?” Bianca asked.

“Hell you bet I do” He replied with a smirk.

“You still haven’t graduated from your perverse ways” She commented, taking a seat by the mat which had been arranged by Giovanni.

“Not when it comes to someone like you” He replied and they both laughed. A comfortable silence followed up which was eventually broken by Bianca.

“So, where is Lucifer and Viola” She asked looking around to see no escort around

“It’s a long story to say the least” He replied, his eyes focused at the waves of the sea.

“I can be a good listener you know?”

“Well, this might come as a shocker but they are both dating at the moment” Bianca swiftly turn to look at Giovanni in disbelief.

“Aww, I knew those two had something going on” Giovanni wanted to mentally slapped himself in frustration.

“You know, I never saw that coming. I am not against the fact they are dating, I am against the fact that it had been done at the expense of my operation” Giovanni explained.

“Aren’t you being inconsiderate here?” Giovanni turned to look at Bianca

“How?”

“I mean they are clearly in love and you happen to use your work to distract them”

“I think their relationship started off when Lucifer went to Russia” Bianca mouthed an O and there was a comfortable silence between the two once again.

“You know, its been quite long I sat with you guys at the table and the fact that Amore isn’t informing me on whats going on, irks me alot” Bianca exclaimed

“He didn’t told you?” Giovanni asked surprised that Bianca had been kept in the dark about the entire time.

“Told me what?”

“Amore is no longer a member at the table” Bianca gasped in shock

“No way!” She exclaimed

“Do you know that he and Priscilla gang up to take out King?” Bianca shot Giovanni an Incredulous look for a moment and remembered the footage she had seen in his room, while she had been searching for the Lexicon file.

“I think I had the footage of how Marco was killed” Giovanni stared up at Bianca in disbelief.

“You do?”

“Yes, he kept it in his room” Giovanni went into deep thoughts for a minute; So Amore had actually killed his father.

When Xavier informed him if the entire story, he was one of the few to disregard it as he never thought Amore was capable of having to kill his own father.

“Alot of things really going on” Giovanni finally commented.

“Then tell me Giovanni, what is happening? What are the things I don’t know?” She pleaded.

“Alright then, you might want to brace yourself for this tale” Giovanni indicated to Bianca, who sat comfortably anticipating the tale from Giovanni.
