My Obsessed Mafia Ex Wants Me Back Chapter 34
ArianaMy phone was wedged between my shoulder and ear while I stirred sugar into the mug absentmindedly. "Matt, are you sure?" I asked.On the other end of the line, he sighed. "Ariana... this is the fifth time you've asked me.""I know.""And the answer is still yes."I bit my lip. "But your leg—""My leg is broken, not my entire body."A small laugh escaped me. "You'll be on crutches.""I've been on crutches for weeks.""I still feel bad asking.""You didn't ask.""You started worrying out loud, and I volunteered."Tessa traitor. She was definitely the one that told him. Even though lately, I'd barely had enough time to think about school activities.Not until yesterday that I got an email reminder on the school activities for the Parents' Participation Day.Normally, I would've rearranged my schedule.Unfortunately, it landed on the same morning as an important board meeting Damien had made very clear couldn't be moved. I hated disappointing Lily."I'll take her," Matt said. "She

DamienThe liquid swirled lazily in my glass as I gave it another slow turn. Muted jazz drifted through the room, blending with the quiet murmur of conversations from the scattered tables around us.It was one of the few places Theo and I could have a drink without someone trying to discuss business every five minutes.Ironically...Business had found us anyway."The Singapore investors are dragging their feet," Theo muttered, taking a sip of his whiskey. "They'll sign eventually, but they'll negotiate until the very last second.""They always do."He sighed. "I've gone through three revised proposals this week.""You'll probably go through another three."He laughed. "I hate that you're right."I reached for my glass. "The board meeting wasn't exactly enjoyable either."Theo snorted. "'Wasn't enjoyable' is one way of putting it."I looked at him. "You nearly gave Mr. Collins a heart attack.""He overstepped." Theo chuckled into his drink."There goes my older brother." I arched an e

ArianaThe front door clicked shut behind me a little harder than I'd intended.I let out a frustrated breath, kicked off my shoes, and shrugged my jacket off my shoulders before hanging it on the coat rack."Unbelievable," I muttered under my breath dragging a hand through my hair.The soft glow of the television spilled into the hallway.When I stepped into the living room, I found Tessa curled up on one end of the couch while Matt occupied the other, his injured leg stretched carefully across a cushion they were completely absorbed in the movie playing on the television.The moment Tessa spotted me, she paused the movie. "You're back."I walked past them without answering, dropped myself into the armchair opposite the couch, and folded my arms."I don't think Damien is okay in the head.""What?" The two exchanged looks. "I said," I repeated, rubbing my forehead, "I genuinely don't think that man is mentally okay.""Should I be worried?" Tessa asked. "Yes.""About you or about him

DamienThe soft pop of the cork echoed through the silence of my living room. I pulled it free from the bottle before reaching for a crystal glass resting on the minibar.A slow stream of red wine filled the bottom of it.I carried both the bottle and the glass over to the sitting room before lowering myself onto the leather couch.I took a long sip. The wine was expensive. Smooth. Normally, it would've helped me unwind after a day like today.Tonight...It tasted like absolutely nothing.I leaned back against the couch, dragging a hand through my hair before closing my eyes for a brief second.Today had been exhausting. People had apparently decided to test my patience from the moment I stepped into Valmont Holdings.The quarterly board meeting should have lasted forty-five minutes. Instead, it stretched into nearly two hours.By the end of the meeting, the room had gone unusually quiet. Because I'd made it painfully clear I wasn't interested in listening.Theo had to confront me call

Ariana"Ariana, get out of that bed now!"Tessa's voice rang through my bedroom door. I groaned into my pillow pulling the duvet over my head. "Go away. I want to sleep.""You have been doing that since yesterday. That's not a valid excuse.""It is when I've just come back from another country."I heard my bedroom door creak open despite the fact that I'd locked absolutely nothing.A second later, the duvet covering my head was yanked away. I squinted against the sudden brightness."Tessa."She stood at the foot of my bed with both hands planted firmly on her hips.Already dressed. Already wearing the expression that told me I wasn't winning this argument."I don't care whether you're in the mood or not." She pointed a finger at me. "You have twenty minutes."I frowned. "For what?""We're going out.""No. I don't want to." I tried to get back to bed but she yanked the covers away completely and threw it on the floor. "I wasn't asking."I rolled onto my side. "I'm tired. My body stil

DamienI kissed her. The thought had replayed in my head so many times over the last twenty-four hours that it no longer felt real.For years, I'd convinced myself it had been a mistake to let myself think about her.A weakness. A distraction. Yesterday...I stopped pretending.At first, I told myself I'd simply been carried away with the conversation. With the way she'd looked at me when she admitted she'd spent years believing she wasn't enough.Anyone would've reacted. That's what I told myself. That's what I kept repeating on the flight home.Except... It wasn't. Because the second my lips touched hers... It hadn't felt unfamiliar. It had felt like finding something I'd spent years pretending I'd never lost.God. I still like her. No scratch that. I still love her. The feeling hadn't disappeared. It hadn't faded with time. I'd simply buried it beneath anger.Resentment. Grief. Work.Every cold response. Every impossible demand I'd thrown at her since she'd started working for me..

ArianaI used to think survival was about strength... about smiling through pain and standing tall no matter how hard life pushed you.But life doesn't work like that. Now I know survival is just getting through the day without falling apart.The city lights blurred past the taxi window as I stared

Damien"Listen carefully because I'm only saying this once." I said to the bastard making sure my voice was venomous enough to remind him who is the boss here. "I'll give you forty-eight hours." I said. "Forty-eight hours," I repeated. "If every cent isn't back where it belongs by then, you'll spe

Ariana"Are you sure we shouldn't report this man for sexual harassment?"Matt's voice followed me as we stepped inside the apartment.I closed the door behind us and kicked off my shoes, trying to ignore the fact that my heart was still pounding far too hard.Not from fear. At least that's what I

Arianna"Sorry. You're no longer working with us."Those were the words that kept circling in my head. Within less than twenty-four hours, I had lost both jobs.First S&M Publishing House shutting down overnight after the fraud investigation. Then walking into the club and getting informed the boss
