Meet The Mafia Queen

Vanessa's POV

ERIC was panicking when Jaime left, he even forgot to explain what happened before Jaime left him.

"Eric, will you please calm down?" I irritatingly said,

Yes, I am worried about Jaime. Fuckin' worried, but panicking can't help me! "Eric, look."

I forced him to look at me "Calm down, because we're going to find her."

He shook his head, as I saw his teary eye "V-vannie, gabi na kaya. B-baka hindi pa siya nakain,"

I bit my lip with that. At this time, I realize how he likes Jaime—loves rather, "Cathy?" I caught her attention

"Ano 'yon, Queen?"

"Tell butler James to ready my car," I sighed "We cannot let Jaime leave us just like what happened,"

Cathy nodded, as she ran away.

We're here inside the private room, waiting for Eric to find Jaime's location, "Eric? Did you see her location, already?"

He didn't answer instead he leaned closer to the monitor, "A-ano?"

My brows furrowed "What fuck is wrong, Pires?"

'Darn it.'

"Y-yung location kasi ni Jaime," I saw his fist, it clenched

"—nasa isang c-condo,"

"Shit!" I cursed and stood up, fuck don't tell me that—"Damn it!"

Eric stood up and wears his coat "K-kailangan na natin siyang puntahan, Vannie."

'He's stuttering, he's scared. And so am I.'

"LET'S go,"

Two cars of my men are following us, or even guarding us. I was the one who called them in the first place—so I didn't get irritated at them,

My men opened the door and made way, they even guard us even we're already inside the condominium.

We entered the elevator with the three of my men, "Sir Eric, what floor?"

"Sixth floor,"

He seriously said, "Eric," I called him but he didn't look at me "Stop what you're thinking,"

Eric smiled weakly "Paano naman, Vanessa?" He asked sarcastically "Babae nasa loob ng isang condo unit at ang mag nakakalito pa, hindi sa kaniya. Kundi sa ibang lalaki nakapangalan,"

I felt Cathy's hand, it held mine "Pabayaan muna natin siya, Queen." She sighed "Ganyan lang talaga siguro si Eric pagdating kay Jaimie,"

Maybe, she's right.

The elevator reached the sixth floor, as Eric leads the way. Cathy and I glance at each other and followed him

When we stopped in front of a door, Eric spoke "Vanessa, pede bang ilayo mo muna yung mga kasama natin?"

He's pertaining to my men, "Please, Vanessa." His voice is shaking "P-please,"
