Searching for the Mafia Heiress (Sequel)

23

Someone's POV

"Is she fine already?" I asked Brian.

Nangangati na akong bugbugin ang babaeng iyon. Why does she need to be beaten up this time? Because of that, we need to cancel all our plans. Tsk! Kahit masama ang loob namin sa pamilya nila, ayaw naming may mamatay sa kanila, for now.

"She's still recovering from her bruises. They went into an event where your Father also went too."

"That's business. You need to attend if they want to." I sipped into my drink.

"By the way, why didn't you go there? You're invited as well."

"I don't want to go there. My Family's already there, why bother in going? We should keep our identity too." He sat on the couch, opposite on the couch I'm sitting right now.

"Where's Mark, James and Clark? Where are they?" I asked and he smiled a bit.

"Unfortunately, they really needed to attend the event. Guess what they sent me." Nakangising sabi niya. He took out his phone.

"It's unbelievable." He said and gave me his phone.

I don't know if this is Courtney or Crystal. I saw a photo of one of them, I think she's Hosting the event?

Looking at her face, she's Courtney. Why would she host the event? Look at her face! It's emotionless! How can they hire a host like her?!

"Why is she hosting the event? If I know that she's the host, I should've came to the party."

"When I saw this photo, I looked at the invitation card and the written host is not her. They said that the chosen host didn't able to arrive at the event so they needed to choose someone else."

"And she volunteered?" Kunot noong tanong ko.

Knowing her, she will not volunteer. She would choose to stay on their table and stare at her phone.

"She will not do that. I think the producer forced her to host the event."

I nodded. But why would that producer choose her? I glanced at the photo again.

"And she looks so fine here, hindi kita ang mga pasa niya." I said.

"Yes. That's the power of make up."

"We're home!" I glanced at the door. It's my Dad, with Mom. I gave Brian's phone back.

"Where is he?" I asked, pertaining to my brother.

"As usual, he's in his house or maybe he's still at the party."

Why would he stay at the party?

"Are you going to sleep now?"

"Yes. I'm tired. You need to sleep too. Let Brian sleep here too." I nodded.

CHASE's POV

"Can you come to our house tomorrow, Chase?" I glanced at Tita Yasmin.

I didn't know that they still call their mansion a house. Masyado pa bang maliit ang mansion na iyon para sa kanila?

"Uhm. I'm afraid I can't come, Tita. Can I just meet you tomorrow at lunch?" I asked.

"Why? You declined my offer but you want to have a lunch with me. And why is it just me?"

"I just want to talk to you about something important, Tita." Mahinang sabi ko at saka siya ngumiti.

"I have a duty tomorrow in the hospital but my lunch break is vacant so I'm looking forward in our lunch together."
