Fall For My Ex's Mafia Father novel Chapter 364

But then I scowl when she laughs at me, because I should have guessed that she would know immediately. I mean, she for sure knows that it wasn’t Daniel.

“Oh, come on, Fay,” she says, laughing again. “I saw how he looked at you the minute you came into that house. I wasn’t even jealous! I couldn’t compete,” she shrugs, “didn’t even want to.”

“So, you’re not…mad?” I ask, hesitant.

“It’s not like you stole my boyfriend, Fay,” she says, patting my cheek. “Kent and I – we liked each other a lot, but it was more transactional than that. Nothing close to what I saw between you two.”

“I can’t believe you caught it before the rest of us,” Daniel says, shaking his head. Jerome just smirks and I consider him, wondering how long he knew.

“It wasn’t hard,” Fiona replies, “if you were looking for it. But what the hell happened to that vasectomy I heard so much about?” she asks, frowning and looking down at my stomach again. “Was that a lie?”

“No,” I sigh, “it was real. It just…got patched up, or something.”

“Wow,” she says, her eyes going wide. “Sounds like I got out of there right in time!”

And then we’re both laughing as she warps her arm around my waist and leads me over to the bar, Daniel coming along. Jerome, as planned, quietly steps aside and works his way around the room with a little device that’s supposed to detect any places in which the room has been bugged.

I glare at the little device in his hands for a moment as Fiona works her way to the other side of the bar, wishing to hell I’d had that a couple of months ago to scan my bedroom. It would have saved us a hell of a lot of trouble.

“As much as I love a reunion for reunion’s sake,” Fiona says as Daniel helps me up onto a barstool, “I have a feeling that there’s more going on here.”

“Can’t a cousin just come for a nice cup of tea?” I ask, coy.
