Hi everyone. Sorry I missed an update i was on holiday. Hopefully I will keep up with updates but I forget.😅 Enjoy!
Carlos POV
"I dealt with it" I say leaving out the part where I punched him till, he blead out on the floor, only just breathing. When Celeste called, I knew something must be wrong because she only talks to me about work and that's it.
I was in the middle of getting some information out of a someone who had infiltrated my main business when I received the call. I was just getting somewhere with him as well. Great fucking timing.
She leans on me for support as she wobbles on her heels. I have to admit she looks absolutely breath taking tonight the dress perfectly shaping her hourglass. I help her into my car; I brought my old one just in case she is sick. "Do your seat belt Celeste" I tell her my words obviously not registering in her intoxicated mind.
I lean over her smelling the alcohol on her breath and hearing her heart thumb harder in her chest at the closeness, a small grin shows on my face at her reaction to me. She also called me 'Mr sexy' over the phone earlier which made me laugh. She really has been trying to hold herself back for the last week.
I get a call through the car speaker its Mario my not biological brother and most trusted friend who is dealing with the business in Italy at the moment. "Si" I say so he knows to speak in Italian, I don't want Celeste to know what we are talking about, even if she is too drunk to remember it anyway.
"La spedizione è stata rubata Carlos, siamo fottuti se non la riprendiamo. Ha tutte le nuove armi e oltre 2 milioni di dollari di droga." He says knowing this is really bad. (The shipement has been stolen Carlos, we are fucked if we don't get it back. It has all the new weapons on it and over 2 million dollars worth of drugs.)
"Scopri chi è stato, tornerò in Italia appena posso, tienili in vita fino al mio ritorno." I say before hanging up. (Find out who did it, I will be back in Italy as soon as I can, keep them alive untill I get back.)
I turn to Celeste to see she is staring right at me, I can read her now she is in a drunken state, she can't hide what she is thinking. I can tell she understood the whole the coversation I just had with Mario. Shit.
How does she understand Italian, she would've told me- right? "Weapons. Drugs, 2 million fucking dollars" she blurts out confusion all over her face. The thing that surpises me is that she isn't scared at all, like she is used to danger.
"Celeste listens to me, you shouldn't have heard any of that, but you don't need to be scared of me, I am going to take you to a safe place so I can look after you" I say calmly trying not to overwhelm her. I am actually taking her to one of my other houses with guards, so she doesn't escape and tell the police anything, but she doesn't need to know that.
