Unwillingly Married

Chapter 18

Brian’s POV

Glyn and I are now boarding to the jet plane to fly in Venice. For the rest of the vacation we rarely talk and interact with each other.

And that is because of that call. I could tell her what’s the matter but the thing is, I don’t  want her to involve on those kind of things.

That call was not for her to know.

It is about the shipment that was sabotage before it was delivered to us. The thing is, it is the third shipment they try but it never successfully done.

And they just inform me when it was out of hand and I am so pissed. That shipment cost so much. That is why we are going to stop by in Venice and fix the problem.

I am going to meet Cedric, the one who is in charge for the shipment. I need to know what really happened and it looks like he wanted to talk to me personally hence the need to stop by.

After a few hours of ride we are now landing on Venice. As we went down the plane, the guards waiting for us take our baggage and lead us in the car that will take us in the mansion that I have here.

“How long are we gonna stay here?” Glyn ask all of the sudden making me turn my gaze to her.

“Depends on how long I can fix the problem” I answer and look forward.

“I’m not gonna stay here for so long. Maybe I can take a private jet to take me back home” she suggested but I shake my head no.

“No you can’t. We arrive here together, we are going back home together” I answer. I can’t let her go, not right now.

I can’t risk her safety especially that there is an arising problem in the underground society. And it must also be the reason of this sudden sabotage shipment. No one messes with me. They know the fate they will end up.

After the short drive we came to the large mansion. The guard stationed outside open the gate for the car to enter.

We both went inside the mansion after the car stops in front of the door. Maids take our belongings and brought it inside.

“Take her to her room” I ordered and they both nodded.

Glyn look at me for a moment and I waited for her to talk but she didn’t say anything to me and just follow the maid.

I fetch my phone from my pocket and went to my office. I dial George’s number and in just a few rings he answer immediately.

“Hello bro, how’s your honeymoon” he said in a teasing voice but I don’t pay any attention to it.

“We are here in Venice. I want you here. It’s looks like there is something more happening in the underground” I said and I heard him cuss on the other line.

“Okay, I’ll be there tomorrow” he said and after that I hung up.

A knock was heard in the door. After saying to come in my assistant enter the room.

“Status” I said and he nodded.

“For the first shipment, it went as plan, the route and the receiver are already stationed, But when it come to the receiver the parcel is only cottons” He explain further on what happened and the thing happened on the rest of the shipment.

“Any leads?” I ask pertaining to the mole that might be working for someone.

“There is still no one sir. They really made sure not to leave any traces behind” he answer and I saw fear in his eyes.

“No traces?” I ask and look at him coldly.

“Find it before this week ends, if not you and the rest in your division know what will happen” I said and his face turned pale.

“Yes sir” he answer immediately.

“How about Cedric?” I ask him.

“He will be here tomorrow at nine in the morning” he answer and I nodded.

“Send me the mails that needed and other files I told you to get me” I ordered.

“Yes sir, is there anything else?”

“None, you’re dismiss” after giving a slight bow he leave the room.

I look the folders in my table and read and sign the papers that is needed to be sign.

With the unknown tension happening in the underground and the cancelled shipment it is like a calm before the storm.

I open my laptop and log in to the underground website reading articles that might give me a hint on what is happening.

After an hour of reading I gathered so much information but a big question comes after. It looks like it’s not only my transactions where sabotage but also others. Even a minor mafia groups where sabotage.

One by one they are being destroyed. For the one week I am not in touch, this things happened.

And now the big question is who is behind this things? That they even have the guts to challenge me.

After a few moments later my phone rang and saw an unregister but familiar number to me.

I take my phone and answer it.

“I thought that we came to an agreement of peace? And where is that now?” he shouted on the other line making me huff.

“Look if you’re talking about the sabotage shipment, it’s not me. The same thing happened to me also” I said.

“What do you mean not you? I have one of your men in my territory” he shouted again.

“Like I told you I am a man of my words and I didn’t order anything against you. And beside I just get this info last night about the shipment being sabotage and just learn not a minute ago that the same thing happen to others” I told him coldly.

“The who did it?”

“Look let’s just make a meeting about this. I don’t want another war against you and I think you also agree with me in that” I said and heard him say yes.

After securing the place and time of meet up we both hang up.

Damn it. This is a fucking big mess.

They fucking know what I can do and they are not scared on continuing doing it. And the fact that they also go against Luis is fucking absorb. Whoever is behind this he have guts and powerful enough.

And I need to know who is my new enemy. Not only to let them pay but also to be able to protect Glyn properly.
