Betrothed To The Mafia Lord novel Chapter 312

Luca’s POV

A new day has come and the location of the phone call had ended yo being a dead end, like the clove on the phone had said it was going to be, which was why I wasn’t all that disappointed. But I was really angry, angrier than I had been the night before.

The voices of the voice on the phone, had been narrowed down to three, which all looked too young to be in the mafia. I had a hunch that the person who I had spoken to last night might be one of them, which meat only one thing; I hadn’t spoken to the boss last night like I had suspected, but had spoken to a kid that had probably been paid fo do that, or had been blackmailed into doing that. My guess was right because when I had called the number again, the voice had been completely different from how it had sounded last night.

When I had called the unknown voice out on his bullshit and that I had been able to figure out who had been on the call last night and that it wasn’t one of them, the voice had only laughed and applaud my smartness for being able to figure that out so fast. I asked the voice if he was sure my brother was still alive but the voice only asked me if I was sure his diamond was also coming to him, while completely ignoring my question.

After the call had ended, I had ordered for those three young looking guys whose voice had matched the voice on the phone last night, in order ro force the truth out of him and to rat out the person he had helped impersonate on the call last night. A few hours later and I got informed that they were only able to find two of those three young looking boys, and thzt the third one was found dead by his mum at the back of their house, with a deep gunshot wound. I didn’t need to be outrightly told that the person who I had talked to a few hours ago on the call, had been the one behind this, it was so damn obvious.

When I had called him again, he informed me that he knew I was going to go try to question that boy fast, which was why he took the boy’s life to protect himself, he also went on about how smart I was before I had angrily ended the call. It didn’t end there though.

I received a call from one of the underground lords I had went to visit last night, and was off to see him as soon as he had informed me that he had found something. James was currently in a meeting, taking my spot because there was no way I’d be able to function in the office today, with all what was happening right now.

——

The underground lord was named Garrick, a man who I had known for a really long time. He was one of the few people who I had gone to school with, that ended up being really successful. Whereby I never really liked the mafia lifestyle and was living it because it had no choice, Garrick loved it so damn much. We’ve helped out each other a few times, and that was the reason why he was trying to do the same to me right now.

I arrived at his place in no time, and thankfully, he presented me with an actual lead this time. Turns out the person who was behind this was like a prodigal child, and was probably thinking he’d be able to win his father over and he let into his mafia, by taking the diamond he was requesting for him his father. That left us with different leads; to find out which family my family had fought with all because of the supposed diamond, it was definitely going to be one of the sons of that family – because the voice had clearly spoke like the diamond had been originally theirs but got taken from them by my family, meanwhile I was told by my father that the diamond belonged to our family but was stolen from them by the other family – and that he had been the one to thankfully get it back from the family who had stolen it, and I had believed him because one thing my father would never do was to lie about that.

If he had indeed stolen the diamond, he’d have informed me.
