Mafia Desire novel (Ava and Andrew) novel Chapter 49

Chapter 49
I rolled my eyes as the girl returned with the drinks, setting them down and asking if we were ready to order, but Andrew simply shooed her away. I take a sip of the red drink and swallow the bitter liquid.

Andrew looked at me and laughed when I made a face about how disgusting the wine tasted. My heart flutters as I watch him laugh at me; he should laugh more. I felt sick and the urge to vomit all of a sudden.

"I'm going to the restroom; I'll be right back." I informed Andrew.

"Don't be too long, kitten." Andrew responded.

I rolled my eyes and proceeded to the bathroom, but before I could open the door, I felt a cloth on my mouth and everything went black.

Andrew's POV

"God, today was nothing but stressful and irritating." I was thinking to myself.

The main base experienced an explosion in the east wing, killing 12 people and costing thousands of dollars to repair. The explosion had to have been an inside job because it was new and no one knew where it was except my gang, and Ava was upset with me because of Travis.

Ring...

Ring...

I looked down at my phone, which was flashing "Alex" across the screen.

"Mhm." I hummed, annoyed that I had told my men not to call me unless it was absolutely necessary.

"Boss, you must come to the base; it is critical." Alex stated over the phone.

"All right, I'll be there in 20 minutes." I responded.

"It's just right. Now I have to cancel my date with Ava."

I rose from my seat and proceeded to walk to the restroom to fetch Ava. I stood by the bathroom door and knocked, hoping to let Ava know I'd be waiting for her at the car, but was surprised when the door opened.

I panicked and ran my hand through my hair. I took my phone out of my pockets and dialed Alex's number.

"Yes, Boss?" He inquired.

"Bring everyone down here RIGHT NOW." I yelled into my phone. I hung up and walked back to the restaurant, my chest growing heavy and my mind racing. I began walking back and forth, trying to figure out who was trying to take her. My fists clenched as anger coursed through my veins; I would kill whoever had hurt her.

"She has to be fine." I was thinking to myself.

About 15 of my men walk into the restaurant a few minutes later. "Go through everyone and find her." I hissed at them, and they all nodded before starting to shake the customers down. When one of them came out of the bathroom with something in his hand, a couple of my men went to the back, searching the staff as well.

"Boss." said the man. "What? I yelled at him.

"I discovered this on the sink." He said, holding up the black rose necklace. I snatched the necklace from his grasp and nearly fell to the ground while holding it.

"Did she abandon me?" I asked myself, unsure what to make of the situation.

"No, she won't." I was thinking to myself.

I felt a buzz in my pocket and reached inside to pull out my phone, which had Alex's phone number on the front.
