Taken By The Mafia Lord

705 I Would Never Hate You

It didn’t seem like a bad idea to get under that trunk until now. Victor was giving her a fierce look and something told Mimi that it would be a whole lot worse if she lied to him. So she just told him the truth.

“I hid under a truck and got inside the place,” She said it just like that.

“What?” All blood drained from Victor’s face.

“It seemed like the most feasible idea at the time. There was no other way to infiltrate that place built like the white house and then the opportunity came in the form of a truck and I took it.” She tried to justify her action.

“Are you out of your fucking mind, Mimi?!” Victor shouted at her for the first time. No, this was the first time that they were having a real quarrel like this.

“You risked the life of my child all just to meet Arianna?! Do you know how dangerous it was to get under the trunk? You could have gotten burned or even worse, what if you slipped and the truck ran you over?! What would I have done?! What would I even say to your parents? The worst part is that I might not even know you’re dead and would go around searching for you like a fool if the Draven family decides to hide the case?! “He laughed sarcastically and continued, “You would leave me alone in this world, both you and my baby?!

I wouldn’t even get the chance to marry you... I wouldn’t even get to see my son...! ” He was irritated and couldn’t get the words out.

Something was wrong, Mimi could see when he began to hyperventilate and his eyes were unfocused. Her heart began to pound fast and she prayed that he had not triggered his sickness. Guilt began to gnaw at her chest.

“Hey, Victor....” She tried to touch him but he wouldn’t let her. Arianna did say a high level of stress could trigger it and she was feeling worried now.

.....

Victor moved away from her and walked over to her bed. Kneeling over it, he pulled the cover together and used it to cover his face as he breathed hard into it.

“I’m so sorry...” Mimi whispered, tears sliding down her tears. She did not mean to hurt him like this.

It was over a minute before Mimi made her way over to where Victor knelt and wrapped her arms around him, kneeling beside him too.

“I’m so sorry, Vic. I was selfish. I should have thought about how my decision would affect you. I should have been more safety cautious and thought about my child as well. But I’m sorry and I promise that it will not happen again. So can you please not hate me and talk to me?” Mimi cried out, begging him to just look at her.

And he did look at her. Except that Victor’s eyes were red and swollen as if he had been crying and it shattered her heart into pieces.

“Victor... ”

But Victor in question didn’t answer her, instead, he reached out and cupped her cheek. He wiped away the tear that slid down her cheek with his finger and said to her,

“I would never hate you, Mimi.”

Mimi released the breath that she had been holding in. She had thought that Victor would break up with her on a whim, claiming that she wasn’t a responsible mother. This was the longest-lasting relationship that she has ever had and Mimi could not lose him. She loved Victor now.

He went on to say, “However, you would have to understand that your life isn’t just yours anymore. You’re carrying my...no, our child,” He corrected himself immediately knowing the both of them were in for this. It was their child, not just his.

“It might look unfair on you, but you owe our child a bit of responsibility.” He added, “And so do I, which is why...” Victor reached into his pocket and pulled out a box and she let out a soft exhale.

Victor smiled at her “Mimi Davis, would you marry me?”

He scratched the back of his head as he explained to her, “I wasn’t supposed to do this now, it was meant to be later this week and in an ostentatious manner. I would propose to you in front of both of our families with romantic gestures and all. However, I don’t know what came over me and I just thought the moment was right and both of us are even on our knees” He hinted that he should be the only one kneeling.

Mimi chuckled, she didn’t realize she too was on her knees. It definitely wasn’t the usual way of proposing.

“You know what...” Victor shook his head, “Perhaps, I should leave this for later that day -”

Was he fucking kidding her?

“Oh please, give me that!” Mimi quickly snatched the ring just when he was about to place it back in the box. The ring was going nowhere except on her finger.

Mimi examined the ring on her finger and it was really beautiful with a single diamond stone. That ring must have cost a ton and Mimi didn’t need a God in heaven to tell her that the diamond was authentic.

“I’m marrying you, Victor. You’re all mine. It’s the both of us forever, till death does us apart.” Mimi told him seriously.

If it wasn’t for the love she had for him, then she was marrying him for the sake of the diamond. It was so pretty that she wanted to cry.

Victor was dumbfounded. He didn’t know that she was in a hurry to marry him. Well, he was not complaining. Filled with nothing but genuine happiness, he took her face in her hand and kissed her fully on the lips.

“We should go tell your parents the good news, they would be over the moon, ” He said.

But she shook her head, “Perhaps later, they already knew this was going to happen anyway. However, I have better news,”

“What news?”

“A way to get Arianna and Marcel together,”
