Fall For My Ex's Mafia Father novel Chapter 333

My smile is very, very genuine when Daniel finally bursts into the examination room, because it has been absolute torture waiting here with Alessi and Natalia without him.

“Ah,” Alessi says, giving Daniel a big smile and taking a minute to wrap his arms around his nephew and kiss him on either cheek. Daniel goes a bit pale when Alessi holds him tight, pressing his eyes closed, and I laugh a little to myself knowing that Daniel’s hangover this morning was…fierce.

It had taken everything Janeen, Jerome, and I could do to haul him out of bed and get him dressed, but eventually Daniel welled up the strength to do it because he knew he had to. It’s a big day, after all.

Daniel gives Alessi a pained smile and then his eyes find me.

I raise my eyebrows to him in a silent question and he gives me the tiniest of nods, letting me know it’s done. I lay my head back against the padded seat behind me, relieved.

Good. At least this one thing went right.

“My Daniel,” Natalia coos, moving forward to him next, taking his fac in her hands and tsking in disapproval. “What did they do to you last night – you look terrible, my little groom.”

“I did it to myself, Natalia,” Daniel says, giving her a soft smile. Natalia mumbles something about how she can’t possibly believe that, lifting her fingers to his hair to push it into order, but before she can get very far the doctor comes into the room.

“Ah,” he says, smiling at Daniel. “So, the father has finally arrived.”

“Apologies, Dr. Banks,” Daniel says, tucking away his suffering and reaching out a hand to shake the doctor’s. “I had to visit my father this morning and the traffic on the way back from the prison was heavier than expected.”
