Love Slave to the Mafia Boss's Passion 18 novel Chapter 155

A few days after wrapping up the funeral, I was moving along smoothly in the process of moving on with my life. It had been almost a week, but I haven’t made up my decision regarding what to do with my life in relation to the mafia. It was a very difficult decision to make and no matter how hard I thought about it, the answer did not immediately come to me. Perhaps, I already had an answer in mind, but I was just too scared to admit it even to myself.

While I was on break from teaching my art class, I got a phone call from the building manager’s office of the penthouse where I used to live with Hayden. For some reason, I still had the number saved so I knew who the call was from right away. I wondered what they wanted after all this time. It had been many months now since we’ve moved out.

“Hello. Miss Malissa, sorry for calling out of the blue,” a woman’s voice said.

“It’s ok. How can I help you?” I asked.

“We were in the middle of clearing up the room as the rent contract had just expired and we think you left something important in the penthouse,” the woman explained.

“Umm…I don’t think that I forgot anything…” I said with confidence.

I did not forget anything. I definitely checked when I moved out.

“Well, the penthouse had been closed since you moved out so I’m assuming that it must be yours,” the lady said sounding a little confused.

“Didn’t the rent contract expire the day that I moved out?” I asked, not quite understanding what she was saying.

“Not exactly. The contract just expired at the end of last month. So, although you have moved out, no one has entered the room due to the contract. Of course, rent was being paid in a timely manner,” the woman explained politely.

Ok…I didn’t know that…

“Anyways, please come over when you’re free to pick it up. Are you free later today? We need to clear the place so I would highly appreciate it if you could hurry a bit…” the woman said.

“Oh…I see. Ok, I’ll go over when I’m done with work for today. Maybe like 6:30PM?” I suggested, although I was uncertain about what was going on but I didn’t want to inconvenience the building.

“Sure. I’ll wait for you. Thank you for your help,” the lady said brightly.

“Thank you…” I replied softly before hanging up.

After my class ended, I headed over to the building where I used to live with Hayden. Staring up at the building brought back many memories. I sucked in a deep breath and walked into the lobby. As promised, the lady was waiting for me in the lobby and together we took the elevator up to the penthouse. Although it’s been months since I’ve last been here, it felt so familiar that it might as well have been just yesterday that I was here.

“What was left here? I’m pretty sure that I didn’t leave anything behind,” I said as I followed the woman inside the penthouse.
