A Mafia's Secret Wife

Chapter 45

KRIS

On my way to Tia's condo when Jin suddenly called me. I plugged in my earbud so I could talk on my cell while I drove.

"What?" I said after I accepted the call.

"Boss, may kaunting problema dito," he replied slowly with a hint of hesitation.

I sighed briefly. "Tell me or I'll bomb your room," I responded, running out of patience.

"Boss, 'yung aso mo kasi hindi kumakain."

I suddenly hit the brake. I was shaken for a moment by his words.

"What?" I exclaimed and calmly continued driving.

"Just bring her to the hospital," I added nonchalantly. I wondered what shits did happen, for her to avoid eating.

Did she slit her throat or what?

A split of silence came from the other side. "Boss, okay lang daw siya," he reported after a few seconds.

I frowned. "What's she's doing right now?" I asked while I slowly entered the basement lot.

"Matutulog pa lang. Maga rin yung mata niya," he said that suddenly bothered me.

"I'll go back right there, and you'll be the one to deal with that wench," I ordered and ended the call.

Instead of parking my car, I decided to went back to the rest house where I hid her. When I arrived and as I approached her room, I saw Jin standing outside the door of her room—our room.

"Talk to her," Jin suddenly uttered when I held the knob, tapping my shoulder.

I raised a brow at him. "Wanna die, motherfucker?" I growled when I understood behind his grin.

This fucking useless dog deliberately made me rode back here so I could entertain his lacking romantic life.

He cackled softly. "Just be with her tonight," he said and disappeared right away before I pulled out my gun.

I clicked my tongue as I entered the room. "What's wrong with you today, moron," I greeted when I saw her sitting on a cushioned chair. Her back was hunched and silently crying.

My mind decided to searched for one of my hidden wines in my closet, so I could comfort her. I'm quite aware that comforting someone wasn't available in my system. Since I comfort myself by drinking alcohol, offering her one was all I could do.

"This is quite a strong one, so just drink this very slow," I said and offered her a glass that I preciously hid in my drawer.

Ivan looked at me with the saddest expression as she held the glass I offered.

"Will this make me sleep?" she queried, staring at the drink.

I tilted my head shortly as I scanned her face. "I don't know, it's not milk though," I calmly replied and sat on the top of the glass table in front of her seat.

She suddenly teared up, bursting with overflowing tears.

I shook my head as I poured some drink into my glass. "Who made you cry like this?" I asked as I stir mine. "Tell me," I added and took a small sip.

My eyes suddenly widened when she drank the wine like water. "Fuck, are you crazy? Damn it, such a moron," I muttered, jutting upright and took the glass away from her hand.

"Inaway ako ni mama. Sinampal niya ako," she whined like a little kid, crying out so loud.

I cleared my throat, trying not to laugh because of her cuteness. "Is that so?" I asked as I held her hand. "You want me to punish her?" I asked sweetly as I enjoyed looking at her face.

She nodded as she hummed. "Are you drunk?" I asked even though it was already obvious.

Instead of replying, she pulled me closer to her, ending up for me to sit on her lap.

"Boss, 'yung totoo, sabi ni mama, masaya ako kasama 'yung anak niya," she said that made me stiff. "Hindi ko nga kasama sila Lawrence, tapos hindi ko gets—hik, iba 'yung nagluwal sa akin?" she mumbled as she hugged me like a pillow.

My expression hardened when I recalled her disturbing blabs. "What else did she say?" I questioned, looking at her face.

She bit her lower lip before she spoke. "Wala akong maalala. Teka, kung iba 'yung nagluwal sa akin, si papa 'yun nag butntis? Siya lang naman ang malandi nung sumama siya sa ibang babae," she ranted made me laugh softly.

I bobbed my head in agreement. "He's really a bitch kind of man," I assured, wrapping my arms around her waist.

I kissed her forehead as I shifted our position, placing her on my lap. I buried her in my arms. "It's okay. Someday, I'll punish those adults for you," I said, raking my fingers through her hair.

She hummed as she shut her eyes. "Sleepwell, I'll be here," I whispered, leaning my head against the top of her head.

I snorted when I realized my action. "This is really a stupid love."
