While he was waiting for Aliya's call, Dominic sat on a bench at the other side of the road, that way he could finally take shade from the scorching sun, and he had the perfect view of his mother -in -law and Richard and how they were going to fail woefully. "Yes, who is the person in charge of the establishment??" Richard demanded angrily. "Yeah, bring out that scum!" Florence added. "How dare you scam all these people of their money? You should be ashamed of yourself! Now, I order you to do the right thing or else I'll make sure you end up on jail!""Sir, I'm not the one in charge, I'm only a security guard." The middle height man in uniform addressed Richard and Florence. "Ma'am, please you can't come any further. That's the rule.""Screw all your trashy rules! Don't you know who I am? Go in right now and tell whoever is in charge that Richard Stevenson is going to send every last one of you to jail if he or she doesn't come down here right this instant!"When he mentioned sendi
"What I found out was that he had a backbone. And that backbone is going by the name of Pablo DiMarzio." Aliya announced. Inside the four walls of the MX Corp, right in the CEO's office, an elderly man and a younger man were having a meeting. "Sir Pablo, this is your cut from this deal." The younger one, a blonde man said, his voice coming out a little shaky. "And how much exactly are we talking about here?" The younger man was the owner of the company but the elderly man was the one seated in the executive chair. "Twenty million, sir.""Am I a joke to you?!" He flared up. "Twenty million? And what the hell am I supposed to use it for? Cigarettes?!" He voiced boomed across the room, bold enough to intimidate anyone. "I– I am truly sorry sir, but it's just… there isn't that much money from this deal and well I still have some other commitments I need to settle –""Do I look like I care? Maxie, what do I always tell you?""Th- that you do– don't joke with your money… sir." The young
"Don't you worry yourself Aunty, I will make sure I retrieve every last penny of the money you invested in this fraudulent company. That is a promise I am making to you right now." Richard declared boldly. "Oh thank you Richard, I am so glad I called you. Oh, if only I had a reliable and responsible young man like yourself in my family." Florence had been smiling brightly, her hope in Richard's power and connection was unwavering. "Oh you flatter me too much Aunty. Let us sort out this issue first, then we can talk about uniting our families after this.""Wow, you're responsible and you have your priorities set out straight. Oh where have you been all my life?"Richard was getting excited because he saw that Florence was also interested in him getting married to Ciara. A proud grin worked its way to his lips, things were going easier than he had expected. Too easy even!Now all he had to do was get the money back from whoever the CEO was, and the deal was in the bag. The MX Corp lo
"Well, well, well. So this is the man who intends on sending me to prison. Well, I'm here now, arrest me." Pablo DiMarzio said, a mocking smile on his smooth face. "W– well- I - you see, the thing is uh- I didn't -" Richard stuttered, unable to get any word out. Florence just stood motionless by his side, looking petrified with fear. Even she was familiar with the mafia boss, and she knew the damage he could cause in her life with just a single phone call. "Why are you stammering? Didn't you want to punish me for duping these people of their money?""N- not at all sir." He shook his head quickly. "I didn't think you were the one in charge. I would never dare to go against your word or judgement." Richard was upset that Florence had to see him in such a weak state, but even more than that, he was scared that Pablo DiMarzio might ruin his life if he uttered the wrong statement. "Oh, so now I'm sir to you? But I'm a bad person, do I really deserve the respect you're giving to me?" A
Dominic was still watching the scene but he was already getting bored, and he was sure his mother -in -law was already so disappointed in Richard for not being able to stand up to Pablo… even though she couldn't either. "Two cones of chocolate ice cream please." He ordered and the man in the ice cream truck happily prepared his order. The ice cream man would have driven off to another area in the city but Dominic had proven to be a good customer after buying his fourth one- excluding the two he just bought again. Dominic had always had a sweet tooth and while not many people were aware of it, Mrs Jameson knew, and she always tried to satisfy his cravings. Speaking of Mrs Jameson, her health had improved greatly the last time Dominic paid yer a visit. She had been released from the hospital and she was almost looking like her normal, cheerful self again. Perhaps he would pay yer another visit, and maybe this time he would convince Ciara to go with him. With the two cones in his hand
Dominic recalled back in his younger days, where his mafia uncle used to teach him how to fight. He said that one must always learn how to defend yourself in any situation, and so, Dominic had to train with his uncle who was very talented in martial arts… even though he was only seven years old at the time. Back then, Dominic was never actually able to land any of his moves on him and now that he finally did, he felt… almost happy. He just hoped Pablo wouldn't get offended. When Pablo DiMarzio pulled Dominic and hugged him, every one had questions. Florence wondered what was going on. 'was it a trick?' she asked herself. Maybe Pablo DiMarzio wanted to pull Dominic closer so he could stab him. Was her useless son -in -law going to die?If he did, then her daughter would be single again and that way, she could fix her up with whoever she wanted. Richard was also stunned because, not only did Dominic speak casually to the mafia boss, now he was hugging him. What games was he playing
POPULAR MAFIA BOSS, PABLO DIMARZIO SPOTTED AT FIFTH AVENUE, SHARING ICE CREAM WITH A RANDOM STRANGER. When Dominic read the headline, he couldn't believe it. When and how did someone quickly take and post all those pictures. The first picture was where Pablo hugged him, and the rest was just them sitting on the bench. As usual, the people didn't waste any time with the comments and reposting and sharing the post like it was nobody's business. 'Who is that young guy with him?' One of the comments said, 'What is going on?? Could they be related?''Oh my goodness!!!! Pablo DiMarzio is GAY??????' Another person commented. 'They kinda look like friends.' The comment section kept going on and on, but for some reason it seemed like the people were more supportive of the girl who claimed they were a gay couple. And in just a matter of minutes, that had become the most popular news in the entire city of Roseville. Popular mafia boss, Pablo DiMarzio is allegedly gay, and he shares a cone
Since they saw the news posted about Dominic and the Mafia boss about two hours ago, they– mostly Ciara— had been anxious to hear an update. She was pacing around her office, mumbling to herself except for the occasional outbursts. "Ugh! Why won't he call me?" And throwing out some curse words as well. "So, new update, your husband is gay." Maria said, resting on the wall by the entrance. "Touching story for the kids.""What do you want, Maria? I'm not in the mood for your drama right now." She said without paying her much attention. "Of course I understand. No one would hear such news about a man she's married to and be calm. You know gram has seen it as well. So your little husband is the least of your worries.""What did she say about it?""I believe you're not crippled, so what's stopping you from going to her office to ask her by yourself?""Well if you're not going to help, then just get out of my office.""Rude, someone's letting her new position get in her head. What gives
