A Billionaire In Disguise novel Chapter 41

For almost fifteen minutes, Rome and his father didn't utter a word to each other.

“You seem disturbed.” Mr. Orlando finally said without staring at his son.

“I got a lot on my mind,” Rome mumbled, keeping his eyes focus on the windshield.

“Burden me with some, and don't keep it all inside. I'm your father, and there's nothing I wouldn't do for you.”

“Now that you mention it, there's something I need you to do for me.”

Feeling his anger subsiding, Mr. Ford gazed at his son and asked, “What is it?”

“I need to keep tabs on Chloe,” Rome said, swaying his gaze towards his father.

“Isn't Mr. Orlando already doing that?”

“Yes, but he is limited unlike you. There's no happening in this country that you don't know about. That's why I need you to do this for me.”

“You can do it yourself.”

“What do you mean.”

For a second, Mr. Ford looked hesitant. Then he sighed and said, “It's time to introduce you to the other side of my life.”

“What?” Rome absentmindedly asked.

“You know that your old man is in a gang. But do you know how powerful it is?”

“Well, no.”

“Then let's find out?”

Even though he was confused, Rome asked no questions when he heard Mr. Ford said to the driver, “Take us to ‘Bluemoon Casino.”

After an hour's drive, the car came to a stop in front of a blue skyscraper a couple of miles away from the city.

Within a matter of seconds, a group of men, wearing black suits came rushing out of the building and position themselves into two straight lines.

Then one of them pulled the car door opened and Mr. Ford stepped out, followed by Rome.

“Welcome big boss.” The men in black said in unison as they bowed.

With a look of satisfaction in his eyes, Mr. Ford smiled. Then he marched into the building, and Rome kept his steps closely behind his father.

Afterward walking a few distances into the corridor, they entered a room, and instantly, the place fell silent.

“Scar, Blaze, Brook, followed me!” Mr. Ford coldly said with an aloof expression.

Immediately, three men dropped their cards on the table and stood to their feet.

Then they followed Mr. Ford as he headed upstairs with Rome by his side.

When Mr. Ford and Rome entered a room, they went in after him and shut the door behind them.

“Scar, Blaze, Brook, meet my son, ‘Rome.” Mr. Ford said as he sat down on the couch.

“Big boss, you found him?” Brook asked, sounding shocked.

“We found each other.”

“I'm sorry that we couldn't find him all those years, big boss. But I am glad that you from him.”

Although Rome didn't understand a thing they were saying, he kept his questions to himself and sat down.

Then he raised brows as the three men turned to him, bowed, and said in unison, “Welcome back, boss.”

Without saying a word to them, Rome gazed at his father and threw him a what's-going-on look.

“Meet my eyes and ears in the underground world. The nothing illegal that's goes on in the darkness that they don't know about.” Mr. Ford said as he stood from the couch.
