Her Volkovs #Book 4 novel Chapter 25

Belle's POV

Rise above the situation Belle. You are Volkov's wife---the most powerful man in the Conglomerate. You have come this far. Don't let this desperate inebriated woman ruin your night.

"Millie, you look like you're done for the night. I am sure your husband would be delighted to remove his disgraceful wife from the table." I said as calmly as I can even though my heart is already pounding inside my ribcage.

One of their people is trying to talk her out of the Conglomerate wives table. She downed another glass of wine before leaving begrudgingly. Apparently, she's widowed and is suffering from severe depression. Her stepson approached me to apologize immediately and to Nikolai who did not even let the man explain to him. He did not even reach my husband because he was instantly blocked by Boris. It was made clear to them that my husband was not having it.

I feel like because of my appearance in this meeting the Russian Mafia will have to deal with mob wars when we get home. I am a hundred percent sure that Nikolai and Alexei will not let this one slide.

Victoria cleared her throat and then continued with a smile on her face like nothing happened. "Well, that was intense. Shall we continue?" She said casually.

Wow this bitch.

"No, we shall not." I answered, still calmly.

"Excuse me?" She retorts back.

"Did I stutter?" I exclaimed, looking at her straight in the eye.

She scoffed like she can't believe what I just said. The wives who are in cohort with her had the same expression on their faces.

"Hand over the bell and leave the table at once Victoria." I said, still as calmly as I can. This time, people from outside the velvet rope are now chattering, most have the look of disbelief on their faces.

For some twisted reason, I can sense fear in Victoria's eyes. I feel like my dark soul is feasting over her reaction. I got you bitch.

"Who died and made you Queen of the Conglomerate?" Victoria replied in an attempt to insult my boldness.

If only she knows I am way beyond mad right now to even get insulted with such pettiness. I am now protecting my honor and my husbands' honor. We are the Volkov family for a reason. It's time to do my part as Nikolai and Alexei's wife.

"Fine then. Suit yourself Victoria." I signaled one of the servers and asked her to deliver a message to Boris of the Russian Mafia.

When they got my message, Boris the not so gentle giant obliged without hesitation. He handed the server Nikolai's phone, just like what I instructed and had my husband input the number of the person left in charge of the Russian Mafia back in New York.

I then looked at Nikolai and Alexei who has now a 'daddies are proud of you little girl' look on their faces. I just winked at them before focusing back my attention on Victoria.

After just two rings the person answered. However, Victoria was about to speak again so I pointed my index finger towards her direction to shush her because I do not appreciate her interrupting me while I make a phone call to destroy her and her whole family to the ground.

"This is Mrs. Volkov. Listen. Starting this very second, the German mob is considered an enemy of the Russian Mafia. All friendly relations and business dealings with them, domestic or otherwise are dissolved. Encounter with them will now be considered hostile and as such proceed to exterminate without need of prior order from your Bosses. Alert all men after this call. Understand?"

The look of shock is now plastered on the faces of the people around including those outside the velvet rope. People from the German mafia are now on their phones, scampering to inform their people about the mob war. Victoria's eyes widened while her minions jaws dropped in full and utter disbelief.

"You can't do that!" Exclaimed Victoria who still looks dumbstricken.

"I just did." I replied, feeling this undeniable rush inside my ribcage. Yep. I told you I can make your life miserable in the Conglomerate.

"The affairs of the Conglomerate wives are different from the affairs of the Bosses table! This is preposterous!" She continued, standing up from her seat smashing both of her hands on the table while looking at me angrily.

"Next time Victoria, make sure you come prepared when you attack anyone from the Russian Mafia. You see, one thing I have learned from my husband is that Volkov always wins. And I am Mrs. Volkov. I will always win."

I stood up from my seat and walked around the table.

When I reached Victoria's side of the table, I took the bell dramatically slow so that I can give her time to protest so I can take her down again.

As expected, she held on to the bell tightly while looking at me intensely. She went too close to me for a stand off.

"You will regret doing this to me ---you immoral prostitute! There are other forces coming for you and Volkov. I cannot wait for that day to come. You and your deranged family will fall to the ground." She said just loud enough for me to hear her.
