The Unknowing Yakuza Bride (Discontinued)

Chapter 3

I woke to loud banging on my door and got up to see who it was. When I opened the door I could see Marco standing there with a tired look on his face. He looked like he hadn't had a good nights sleep at all. And that was all I needed this morning 'a pissed off Marco.' He looked at me and started tapping his foot on the wooden floor.

"Hurry up and get dressed! We have to be at the meeting at nine o'clock. That means you have exactly ten minutes to get ready!" He shouted, slamming the door behind him.

"Why did you tell me what time to be ready for, last night. When you were in my room?" I asked while digging for some clothes to wear.

He just shook his head in annoyance and sat down on my bed. "I forgot. You know people usually forget about things."

I ignored him and grabbed a black knee-length skirt, lavender blouse and a pair of black flats. And headed into the bathroom to change closing the door behind me. I quickly changed my clothes, walked back out to where Marco was at, brushing my hair along the way. I walked over to my bags and grabbed my purse from where it was sitting at. I walked to the front door, waited for Marco while he still sat on the bed staring at something on his phone.

I made a small whistle towards him and he looked up at me. "What?!" He asked annoyed by my whistling.

"I thought you were in a hurry to leave. What are you doing still sitting there? Come on let's go!" I replied with a slight smirk on my face.

I've always loved annoying him. It was always fun to do. I heard Marco sigh and then saw him shove his phone into his pants pocket and walk over to the door. He opened the door and closed it and led me to the room where the meeting was to be held.

As soon as Marco slid the door open I could see a large group or men sitting on the floor on pillows around a large floor length table. We walked into the room and Marco led me to a cushion to sit on, he sat down beside me. After we sat down Marco started talking to the men that had gathered in the room. "Welcome, gentlemen! I'm glad that you could all join us here today. Now as you, all know what I have called you all here for. Now let us start this meeting."

All of the men except for one smiled at Marco, I noticed that he looked sort of rugged. He had short black hair that was slightly shaved at the sides of his head. I could see that he had a large scar that went across his left eye which looked kind of scary. His dark brown eyes shone brightly in the dim light of the room.

His tanned skin matched perfectly with his scarred face, black goatee. His outfit though was kind of weird he was wearing a normal black suit, but I didn't understand why he was wearing a bright blue shirt button-up shirt underneath his suit. To be honest with you, it was kind of off-putting. As I kept staring at him the man turned and started staring back at me and smirked.

I quickly changed my gaze back to Marco who was talking with a man who was sitting beside him. While Marco continued to talk for several more minutes I started to notice that the man that I was staring at earlier was starting to get annoyed by the passing second. I could see him clenching his hands into fists which were starting to turn white from the pressure. His face clenched in anger.

I didn't want to see anything bad getting started in the room, so I decided to get Marco's attention. But before I could do anything the man started yelling. "Look can we please hurry this bullshit up! I have other things that I have to be getting to!" He snarled.

As soon as Marco heard this he immediately stopped talking and turned his head towards the man and cleared his throat. "I'm sorry about that Mr. Ishikawa, we will go ahead and start with the meeting."

The man my brother called Mr. Ishikawa calmed himself and crossed his arms across his chest as Marco began the meeting. "Now as we are all aware today is the day that I'm introducing Mr. Ishikawa to my sister Serena. As of today Serena and Mr. Ishikawa are now officially engaged to one another. Our grandfather couldn't be here today but he would like to send his congratulations to the couple."
