His Promise: The Mafia’s Babies by C. Tamika novel Chapter 380

Chapter 380

Aria

Wandering off, I skipped inside the warehouse, trying not to grab anyone’s attention. Everyone was occupied with work, I was near invisible, and they didn’t even notice me.

Maybe Christian should rethink his security.

The first thought that occurred to me was to steal something from his office, so I walked to the halls, which were also unprotected. Either Christian didn’t keep valuable stuff around, or he trusted his men enough to believe they wouldn’t do anything they weren’t supposed to.

Would he have CCTV around?

No, I strongly doubted that. He looked like one of those typical pricks that knew how to persuade his wife to have wild sex in his office.

Rumor had it. That’s how his daughter Siena was created.

Standing in front of his office, I knocked on the door. “Hello?” I called out, but there was no answer.

In a hurry, I opened the door, which was not even locked, and made a run for his coat. If he had come straight from home, there had to be something inside his pocket.

“This guy is just a brainless idiot,” I whispered, laughing at his trust in his people. I mean, come on- leaving the door unlocked?

I stuck my hands inside his pockets and pulled out two different items. Two pieces of jewelry.

One was a ring, engraved with his wife’s name, and the other piece was a necklace, engraved with the initials LL

My plan wasn’t for him to go crazy and kill all of us, so I settled for the necklace. The other item was undeniably his wedding ring, and I didn’t want to mess with that.

The necklace did not look important, but since it was stored away with his ring-important enough for him to cause a fuss.

In case of any trouble, I left the office, and I was desperate to remain unseen.

I felt terrible for the J brothers, but I had to frame someone, and unfortunately, they fit the profile to become my victim.

Young, inexperienced, new on the job…perfect.

I stopped in my steps as I heard several male voices in the hall and hid behind the corner. Squinting my

I looked at the faces and recognized two.

eyes.

It was Christian and Beau with two other men.

“Be careful with that thing, boss.” One of the men spoke, pointing at the weapon in his hands.

“It’s loaded.”

Christian clicked his tongue. “I’m always careful.”

“You’ll put a bullet in someone with that thing.” The other guy spoke. “Same way you did, Fabio Garcia.”

My heart sank as Christian laughed at the cruel joke one of his men made. It was a sensitive subject, and after Vince had scolded me about it, I knew all too well that it wasn’t something to poke fun at.

It looked like his friend’ didn’t feel the same.

“We shouldn’t joke around like that. It’s not fair towards Vince.” Beau opened his mouth.

“Speaking of Vince. Has anyone seen him around? I think he should be here by now.”

“No.”

“I heard he’s lazy. At one point, he was asleep for half a year.” One of the men joked around again, referring to Vince’s coma.
