Betrothed To The Mafia Lord

Chapter 353

Luca’s POV

Persona was my favorite club out of the long chains of clubs I owned.

Persona was a club which was built years ago, and today, it’s one of the really booming clubs in Italy.

I made my way into the club with James beside me and the bouncers situated at the entrance of the

club all bowed their heads at me respectfully, scrambling around in fear as we made our way into the

club.

“It’s been so long.” I mused just as the loud noise from the club engulfed James and I.

“I bet it has been even longer for you, compared to me, even though it’s your club.”James responded,

leaning into me in order to be heard over the noise.

“I don’t club that much these days.“ I mused in response just as we got to the vip section.

We got in instantly and I patted the head of the bouncers’ back a little, who had instantly made his way

towards me as soon as he heard that I was here.

“You meant to say you don’t club at all instead, right? Because ever since you got married, that part of

your life died down in an instant.” James pointed out as we climbed up the stairs, straight into an

elevator.

I shrugged a little. “Maybe I don’t like clubbing any longer because I’m not as young as I used to be.” I

defended.

“Or maybe you’re so smitten with your wife, because we’re literally the same age, Luca.” James

snickered and I flipped him off as I rolled my eyes.

“Whatever.”

“Whatever.” James snickered in response.

“We’re here for business, a gory one.” I reminded him just as the elevator doors slid open.

A few of the underbosses were already present and I nodded at them in greeting as James and I made

our way to the bar up here.

This floor was reserved for higher ups, and only those with important posts here in the mafia could be

allowed up here.

I also have an office in here which I loved, that was frankly the main reason why Persona was my

favorite of the entire clubs I own.

I was sipping on a glass of scotch when James slid into the stool beside mine while murmuring.

“Luffy and the guys are all set.”

I nodded my head gruffly at that.

Luffy was here with Romeo, and the team.

After James had scheduled that meeting, one of those two underbosess had instantly called Romeo,

probably because he suspected that something was off, and so I made Romen answer the phone as

he’d do on a normal day while the phone was on loud speaker.

“Did you hear? The fool just called for a meeting, I wonder what it is that he wants to yap about this

time.”

Romeo’s eyes had darted to my face in fear, while he forced out a chuckle that sounded fake even to

my own ears, as he responded with a ‘I know, right?’

“I just can’t wait for his reign to be over already.” The underboss had whined after that. Romeo, who I

had threatened to shoot should he be unable to answer the call like he’d normally do, regarded me

fearfully as he forced out another chuckle.

“That’s definitely happening sooner than later.” Came Romeo’s response.

The underboss laughed at that before asking Romeo if everything was okay, and that he sounded a

little bit weird.

“Weird? I don’t sound weird.” Romen was quick to deny it.

“You do. You’d have been laughing harder than me, and you’d have been cursing Luca out a lot more.”

The underboss posted out and Romeo’s eyes darted towards my face fearfully as he instantly told the

underboss an excuse, right before he had told the underboss he’d be meeting him at the meeting.

Now, Luffy was outside, and he’d bring Romeo up here as soon as I gave a go ahead, which is going to

happen in the middle of the meeting.

This is going to be a lesson to the rest of the underbosses.

——

After the meeting had commenced, James had called on the two other underbosses whom Romeo had

said were with him and questioned them, but they had denied knowing a thing earnestly until I ordered

for Romen to be brought in.

Things escalated after that.

Turns out that the two other underbosses had planned on killing Romeo as soon as I was out of the

picture, and one of the two underbosses– Kyle, had also planned on killing his partner, Logan, because

he wanted to join forces with the two other neighboring mafia lords and be his own boss and wouldn’t

have to share power with anyone.

The thing greed does to people.

There three men had been working together for months in order to take me out, but had also been Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

silently planning each other’s death.

I stabbed the knife which I usually carry around beneath Romeo’s chin, holding the knife firmly while

my Peter hand prevented him from falling.

“Say hello to the devil for me.” I said to him as I watched him choke on his blood, my face being the last

image he saw before he slowly died.

~~~

The fear on the rest of the underbosses’ faces had been very stark, which had been my aim after all, to

instill immense fear in the rest of them. The remaining two culprits, I had ordered for them to be taken

away for further questioning.

I was currently in my office here in Pandora after I had ended the meeting. James had gone off with the

two new captives and was going to head out from there, while I had chosen to still remain here at

pandora.

The office was very spacious, it was also soundproof.

This was the office where most of my mafia related tabs were stored and worked on.

James was the only one who knew the code of the door after me, and the manager of the club– who

had opened and supervised it being cleaned up this evening, before I had arrived.

I picked up the scotch bottle and drank directly from it, just as a call came from the intercom situated on

the table.
