UPTIGHT (mgk mafia au)

🌸19🌸

"How would you feel to be fully in charge of the London deal?" Colson asked me once we were back home from our honeymoon.

"Really?"

"Yes, managing all the contact with Darcy, as well as overseeing production and shipment. That way I can switch to being in charge of staff and the properties." He nodded.

"Yes, Yes." I agreed.

"Okay. Your next meeting with her is in an hour." He smirked, kissing my cheek.

"Lovely. Thanks for letting her stay here." I said, and he nodded.

"She'll never grow on me, but I like that you have friends. Even if they are mafia bosses." He laughed.

"Kells, you do realize that I am a mafia boss right?" I reminded him gently.

"I know, and I'm very aware that you're good at it." He said, and I smirked.

I was holding Alice and rocking her, when a call appeared on my laptop. I answered it, and Darcy's face appeared.

"Hey, how's my favorite American girl?" She smiled.

"I'm good, sorry, I can put Alice down, I wasn't expecting to hear from you quite yet." I said.

"No, you're fine. She's your daughter, you can hold her. Something came up in my schedule, that's why I called early." She apologized.

"So, anyway, I'm going to need another shipment by the end of the week. We've got some Italians coming in for a deal, and they want to sample the product, but we're looking at at least another fifty million if they want it." She explained.

"Holy shit, that's great. I'll get it sent out tonight." I told her and she thanked me.

"I want you and Kells up here to meet them on Saturday. I know it's only Monday, but it would be hugely helpful, and the whole thing is kind of short notice. I can have someone prepared to look after Alice if that's an issue." She invited.

"I... This week?" I asked.

"Yes, I am more than happy to cover your travel, and you can stay at my manor here in the city." Darcy explained.

"Yes, okay. We'll be there."

"Can I get you flown out here Wednesday? Then you'll be adjusted to the time difference. I would take immense pleasure from showing you around the city." Darcy explained.

"Yes, we'll be ready to leave on Wednesday." I spoke, just as Colson walked in the room.

"Excuse me? Wednesday? Where are we going?" he asked.

"London." I told him and he stopped.

"Hey, I got to go. My assistant will email you your boarding passes." She said, before hanging up.

"We're going to London?"

"It's a work trip. We could be getting fifty million out of it, Kells."

"Okay, fine. Who's going to watch Alice? She is not coming with us. I don't want her in London with the British mafia!" he insisted.

"Alright, alright, I'll take care of it. You need to relax." I told him, and he ran his hands through his hair.

"I'll watch her while you go to London." Gwen offered, and I thanked her.

"It'll be fine, my parents will be around to help too." She promised Kells, squeezing his arm.

"Off to London we go then?" I smiled and he nodded anxiously.
