Deceptions of the Heart II: Love is going to be the death of me

Job offer

"So let me get it straight. You will have Roxanne join the mafioso family of the Riders?" Asked Lizzy who was still sat on the couch in the living room of Mr Rider's apartment.

"Exactly. Everything goes according to my plan. Oh no, Max still doesn't know that I'm alive. It wasn't difficult to understand that he wanted to keep that Roxanne by his side by making her join the family. The poor girl won't last for long under such conditions. That way you and I will make that girl disappear, you'll get my son back, and you'll live happily ever after!" The elder man simply replied as he took the last sip from his cup of tea.

"What can I say? Your mind is really devilish Mr Raider- I mean, Leonard. As you wish then. I'm in for the plan".

"That's what I like to hear. And by the way you'll very soon have your own role in this plan".

At this remark Lizzy's eyes widened.

"M-my own part!?"

"Yes your own part. I'm sure you'd love it if you gave your little clueless rival a warning". Said Leonard as he winked in a mischievous manner. "And now time to see what's going on with these two through the camera of my spy" he added then as he took out a small screen.

Back to the small bar the conversation between Max and his partner had already finished. The male pushed the door open and exited the office. The young waitress still remained at the corridor. Max approached her causing the girl to raise an eyebrow. The male had a proud smirk on his face as he spoke.

"Congratulations. You are offered a position next to me as a mafioso".

Roxanne's eyes widened in shock.

"What do you mean?"

Max just smiled before he replied.

"From now on you'll be under my command".
