Irresistible

Chapter 3

One of Michael's men said, "Sir, you need to leave; this place is a trap."

Michael was desperately attempting to get out of the burning vehicle with one of his trusted men. They were ambushed by the Russians, who are trying to conquer their territory, as they were trading goods.

No one dared want to go to war with the McKinley Family, one of the well-known Mafia in the United States, in New York City.

He frantically pulled Kevin out of the burning car while yelling, "No, I won't abandon you Kev, you need to get out there before this car explodes."

"Michael, come on bud your safety is my top concern, go on run," Kevin raises his left arm and grabs his wrist. "I can leave this place, so save yourself."  Kevin grinned at Michael, his best friend and boss.

Kevin's arm was lightly punched by Michael, who also said, "You swear you'll return to the manor alive." Kevin gives him a smile. He got to his feet and bolted. Michael, knows very well that his best friend won't get out there but suddenly he heard a gunfire from behind him as he fled.

He turned around to see Mark, one of his father's trusted men, pointing a gun at Kevin, who was lying dead.

Mark, turn to where Michael is standing, but as he turn to where he last saw him, he has already vanished without a trace.

"Bro—"

"Broth—"

"Richard, Brother!" Linnea slammed her hands against his brother's desk.

While sitting in his office chair, thinking so intently about something, Richard flinched at what Linnea did. "Brother, I've been calling you so many times, you're spacing out since after we ate at the Noodle Bar earlier," She said.

He covered his eyes with his palms and took a deep breath. "I apologize, little sister. I was pondering my upcoming project. You are well aware that I have to create a new car design by the end of the month."

"Are you certain that's what you were pondering? Do you not worry about anything else?" Linnea asks him suspiciously.

Richard got up from his seat, got in front of Linnea, he smiled at her, and caressed her chicks. "Certainly, Linnea, my project was the one I had in mind. So, please, don't worry." He assured her by smiling at her.

Richard laughed at Linnea's reaction, "Alright, come one now," but she is still suspicious. "Do you feel hungry?"

"Yes, I grew so hungry from calling you so many times," He laughs at her remark, and they leave his office together. He asked her what they should eat, and she suggested Chinese food.

As they awaited the delivery of their food, they settled into the living room to watch television and movies. But minutes later, the doorbell rang. "Coming!" Linnea said.

"Hi and thanks for bringing our food, Sir." Linnea exclaimed as she opened the door, but she was mistaken; it was her brother's best mate Lloyd, not the food delivery.

"Seriously, Linnea? Do I really seem to be a delivery man to you?" He chuckled as he patted her head.

"I didn't even know it was you, I was so hungry now that I am eager to get our food for dinner," Linnea replied, blushing with embarrassment.

"Yeah! Yeah! Indeed, little one." Linnea frowned at Lloyd's remark. He simply smirked.

He yelled as he entered the living room, "Hello, Richard where are you I'm here your good best friend Lloyd Crusade." A pillow that Richard threw straight off his face met him as soon as he walked inside their living room.
