Love Slave to the Mafia Boss's Passion 18 novel Chapter 148

Wait. Did he just say reunite? Does that mean…

“Torex and Silva were in a partnership before?” I asked in wonder.

“You’re a fast one. That’s right…” Ethan said before grinning at me.

“Really? How long ago was that?” I asked in wonder.

From what I could tell now, the two groups were not on good terms at all. I didn’t have to understand mafia politics to figure out why that is. However, if they were in a partnership before then something must have happened…

“When Hayden and I were kids our groups were quite close. Hayden and I go way back. He probably doesn’t want to remember it but, we grew up together. We were childhood friends, I guess you could say…” Ethan said as if reminiscing on some distant memories before he chuckled to himself.

I blinked my eyes rapidly a couple of time to clear the image of a small blond boy playing around with a dark-haired boy. The idea of these two guys being childhood friends was just difficult for me to believe and comprehend. Although now that I look back at it, Hayden did mention that he knew Ethan and he seemed to know how Ethan spent his childhood.

Why didn’t I catch onto this before this?

The thing that I didn’t get was…

“Why…are you telling me this?” I asked, clearly confused.

Whatever happened or will happen between the two gang has nothing to do with me now. I was no longer connected to Hayden or the Torex gang anymore and beyond Ethan being my ex-boyfriend, I wasn’t connected to Silva either. This issue has nothing to do with me…or so I thought.

“Maybe because I’m just bored and had a lot of free time on my hands that I could come all the way here to share an old story with you?” Ethan replied sarcastically before he smiled amusedly at me.

I hated it when he spoke to me like this. It was like he always knew everything, and I was the one who didn’t know anything at all.

“I’m listening…” I muttered, not willing to play his little game of chase.

“Hmm…where should I start...” Ethan said, and I knew that he was teasing me.

“I don’t have all day. If you’re going to waste my time, I’m going back to the exhibition,” I said curtly.

“Then what about I pick you up for dinner when you’re done for the day?” Ethan quickly suggested.

He’s always like this…

“No…” I replied firmly.

“You’ve gotten more difficult. Is this because of Hayden, I wonder…” Ethan before faking a loud sigh.

“Listen, Ethan. I don’t know why you told me about your little plan, but I don’t see how it’s related to me. I’m not part of the mafia…ok?” I said, feeling tired all of a sudden.

“Hahaha…you’re the one who doesn’t see or get anything,” Ethan said with a laugh.

“There’s nothing between Hayden and me anymore…” I said.

“Oh…so there was?” Ethan said with his eyes narrowing at me.

I narrowed my eyes at him in return. My temper was clearly boiling over, and it was taking all I had to control my anger just so that I wouldn’t cause a scene in public. If only this wasn’t my art exhibition…

“It’s got nothing to do with you…” I said defensively.
