Taken By The Mafia Lord

714 Wear Her Wedding Ring

“These meetings are becoming kind of boring,” Cindy Luciano moaned as she walked into the base. Today’s meeting was being held at Marcel’s place of residence, which was kind of shocking, to be honest.

If there was anything Marcel hated the most, it was any of his family members – whom he loathed – visiting this place without his permission. He guarded the place so jealously that one might think that he was running some sort of secret experiment there.

If only they knew that Marcel simply liked keeping them on their toes and needed none of their unholy alliance and disturbance. Moreover, people tend to long for something they can’t have. He drew the line with his relatives and they knew not to cross.

However, today, Marcel needed to be in his zone if he was going to convince the annoying elders to let go of the trial. Being in this place would remind them of his authority, as well as a boost to his confidence.

Although the same couldn’t be said for Daniel. His father had once been in control of this place amongst the many other properties that their family owned, until Marcel took over his position and decided to use it as his permanent residence.

There was just something about this place that felt like home even though he had not grown up here. Coupled with Arianna coming into his life, she added a spark of life into the place and he was not ready to move from here anytime soon.

“These meetings are meant for elders unlike the senseless young ones, so you might as well sit out your teenage ass on this one.”

Cindy let out a yelp when Victor came out of nowhere, startling her. She glared at him but he was shamelessly laughing at her reaction and that infuriated her.

“I am not a teenager!” She yelled after him, but Victor ignored her and left while still laughing.

.....

That bastard! She hated him as much as she hated Marcel. The both of them were tight like some creepy twins even though they were cousins. She wished they could go die and there can finally be peace in her family.

Well, Cindy looked around the place and It was not bad. Since this was her first time coming here, what about a little tour? It wouldn’t be so bad, after all, who knows when she might get the chance to visit Marcel’s base?

When he’s removed from his position? When Marcel is dead? Cindy laughed at the thought. When her brother Gabriel finally gets the place, she would advise him not to renovate anything. She would love to see Marcel’s face whenever he comes into the residence and remembers that he had once been in charge.

It would be so heartbreaking – and entertaining.

Hence she broke away from the others that were being led to the conference room by the staff and began to roam around the place. None of the staff bothered her which meant that she freely went wherever she wanted. Moreover, most of the doors were locked, so it was not like she was able to stumble upon a shocking secret.

It would be nice to know Marcel’s deadly secret though, that way she would be able to blackmail him and make him do whatever she wanted – like giving up his position to her brother. For once, she would be able to do something useful and her family would be so proud of her instead of seeing her as a nuisance that she wasn’t. Cindy had great ambitions.

She stumbled upon the room and from the feminine decoration, Cindy could tell that it belonged to a woman. What woman though? The only woman she heard that Marcel liked was that woman named Ariel or something. Was this her room? If it wasn’t, could it belong to his hidden mistress? Could it be that Marcel is cheating on her now that she’s away?

Cindy gasped dramatically at the thought. The woman was even pregnant for him. This is why you should never trust men. Look at her, upon everything she did for Elijah, he chose her ugly, illegitimate sister over her. Well, he’s trash and she guessed, both trash deserves to be together.

It didn’t hit Cindy that she was invading someone’s privacy as she searched the room. It wasn’t until she found the laptop and saw a picture of Arianna and Marcel together, used as the screensaver that she gave up. It was Ariel’s room.

Cindy was disappointed, she refused to believe that Marcel was clean. None of her family members were innocent, however, Marcel’s sins had to be greater than all of theirs. She was sure, her instinct never fails her.

She sat on the bed with her legs crossed over the other and thinking of her next course of action when a sudden bark brought her back to the present.

Cindy turned, surprised to see a snow white chihuahua on the bed and the dog continuously barked at her as if she was some sort of intruder (which she technically was). However, she didn’t heed the warning from the dog and turned to it instead with fascination, taken in by its innocent beauty.

“Aww, aren’t you a cute one,” Cindy swooned, trying to touch its fur but the dog barked at her aggressively and she withdrew her hands.

“Oh come on!” Cindy whined, “You can’t be that bad. And you are so cute that I can’t help but want to hold you.” She reached for Redhead once again and he struck.

It all happened faster than her eyes could register. One moment Cindy was reaching for the cute-looking thing again and the next thing Redhead lifted its head and chomped down on her finger.

It was like something out of a horror movie as Cindy stared at her now completely broken and limp finger pumping out blood that trailed down her hand and dropped onto the bed.

Then the pain registered.

“Ahh!” Cindy screamed at the top of her voice. She couldn’t lose her ring finger. Where else was she going to wear her wedding ring?
