James was getting ready in his walk-in closet while Delilah was still in the hospital. Therefore, he went home to prepare for tonight's mission.
After wearing a black leather jacket and preparing a mask he would use to cover half of his face, James walked out of his room confidently. He went into his working chamber and turned on the television to seek news about Daniel Belvedere's arrest. James had to ensure he and Delilah didn't get swept up by the media.
There are no recent pictures of Daniel's arrest. The police hid him from the crowd of journalists, and only one of the NYPD detectives had informed them about it.
Not long after, Grey walked into James' penthouse with a similar appearance.
"Why are you here?" James glanced back at him and gave a sign.
"Come in, Grey. I was watching the news." Grey came closer, watched the same news as James, then nodded slowly.
"I'll ensure the media won't drag you or Miss Starley on the case." James nodd
Lenora sat on the edge of the empty bed with distant thoughts and gloomy eyes that kept staring at the glass door that separated the balcony of Grey's bedroom. After more than 6 months of dating Grey Hunter, Lenora still feels unhappy when she acknowledges Grey's true feelings.At first, she could overcome it. Although Lenora and Grey rarely talked about Delilah or James, she felt the pain whenever he found out about reality, like today.Finding another woman's picture in her lover's drawers was heartbreaking. Grey keeps a photograph of Delilah that he purposely printed. It was initially a candid photo, but Grey still keeps it though James doesn't need them anymore.And today, Lenora accidentally found it in a drawer while looking for a document. At the same time, Grey doesn't come to work because he has a mission with James.Now Lenora sat alone in the room, thinking about her decision to stay with the Gray Hunter. Is it the right decision? Lenora kept a
Lenora watched when Grey walked towards her. Her blurry eyes stared at him unblinkingly. But as he stood before her, Lenora batted her eyelids, and the tears fell. Lenora hid her face as if she wanted to be angry and explode, but she couldn't. Lenora is not the woman who rants at her boyfriend by mistake.Meanwhile, Grey swallowed bitter guilt because Lenora caught him kissing Delilah's hand at the entrance of the Penthouse James. And it looked like James was witnessing it too. But for him, it was nothing more than guilt for Lenora."I..." Lenora instantly turned around and walked away. Grey snorted out a breath heavier than he was holding back.He followed Lenora to walk towards the elevator to her apartment. He didn't speak, and Lenora didn't intend to say anything. They got into the same elevator, and quietness occurred.The tears fell without being to hold them back. And quickly, she wiped them. Grey turned around and saw the tears. He knew he was con
James tugged Delilah's hand and gently took her into the Penthouse. After accidentally encountering Lenora and Grey being caught kissing Delilah's fingers, James' feelings become melancholy. But he tried to smile due to make Delilah happy. After all, Delilah was leaving the hospital."Mr. J?" James turned when Delilah called his name while walking into the living room."Hmmm... what's wrong, Candy?" Delilah came closer and lightly touched James' jawline."What happened to you? How could you have these bruises? What blood is this?" Delilah asked when he touched James' neck. James slightly raised his eyebrows and then took Delilah's bloodstained fingers. He then grinned afterward."No, it's just... I was playing," James replied with a grin. Delilah frowned instead and tilted her head."What do you mean?" Delilah asked innocently. The blood didn't belong to James but splashed from someone he shot with his gun. However, James couldn't admit it, or Delilah would faint."Uhm… nothing happen
Daniel's bruises still haven't healed, but his heart and pride hurt the most. Who destroyed his career in one night? Daniel doesn't think it's a problem. He was so in love with Delilah and wanted to escape from his glamor world of Hollywood for her.But Delilah didn't even look at him as in a second of Daniel's sacrifice of love. And that makes the NYPD prisons even more remarkable."So he's the actor accused of raping?" asked one of the prisoners who joined one prison with Daniel. His friend then chortled mockingly at Daniel, sitting in a corner leaning on the side of his head."Huh... you idiot. Why ravish a lady if he is indeed a rich man? He must be just a con actor!" taunted another prisoner. Daniel, who heard at first, just sat there and said nothing."Hey, con actor... If you can't handle your dick, I can urge a prostitute for you. You can even ask for a discount, hahaha!" Daniel didn't want to answer, but his ears started burning."I think he will ask for free instead!" one of
All seems normal after the Seven Wolves robbed Kenji Kagawa's club in Brooklyn. But the real storm was coming upon them. One week after the incident, James started to worry. He watches the news daily, overseeing the cases of Nicole and David.Apart from that, Kagawa began to suspect other parties were involved in the plot. Two days ago, they were spied on by Kagawa while having breakfast together at a waffle cafe. Luckily, James didn't bring Delilah with him.Shawn also secretly smuggled his wife, so he went out alone as if he didn't have a partner.After the incident, James drew more protection at his Penthouse. Delilah wasn't allowed out on the balcony because James didn't want anyone trying to take her picture.Later he was also busy with the reconciliation of Daga Nero and Il Rosso. Former followers of Il Rosso are now staying in the group after the Bryan incident. Bryan didn't want to lead the group at all. He prefers to help other mafia-like Papa Josh's, if necessary.Today, as
A man was panting and walking while holding a gunshot wound in his stomach. He walked with some cuts on his face and wounds on his body. His bodyguards hadn't arrived, and he had to try to protect himself.His colleague betrayed him. He was trapped in a meeting that turned out to be aimed at getting rid of him. Unfortunately, he told his men to leave."Damn it, I'll kill him later!" cursed the man, gasping, while grabbing his shot wound. He rechecked his gun and was ready to shoot anyone who closed.Now 20 people are looking for him along the empty street of Salita Cacciottoli. Desperately, he got out and fired his last bullets at them who chased after him like hungry dogs.Some gunshots erupted as he ran with his last remaining strength and unbearable pain in his abdomen."Il Cazzo!" (bastard) he cursed and reshot. The men who didn't get hit kept on chasing and were ready to kill him off once they got him. The man chose to jump into a sewer to hide. He would never surrender to die to
"Wait a minute! But I'm not his girlfriend. I never knew him!" Delilah insisted."Miss, we have to carry out the operation. Someone who has a relationship with the patient must sign it," the nurse explained to her again."But,""It's only formality matters, Miss." The nurse cut Delilah's thought. Delilah still has doubts and has not confirmed the consent yet. After another glance at the man named James, it touched Delilah's heart. She couldn't bear to leave the man inoperable just because she didn't want to sign the paper. Delilah finally nodded after rethinking. After all, she would never meet that man in the future. Naples is a big city for someone to accidentally see each other again.“I don't think he'll remember me either. So, there's nothing wrong by signing it.” Delilah thought to herself. Delilah finally agreed and signed the paper. She was hoping that the man would recover quickly.They operated the man in the OR shortly after that, leaving Delilah in the hospital hallway. No
Delilah looked down at her shirts once Stefano spoke about them. Stefano had just finished eating when he sneered at her mockingly about Delilah's fashion style."Look at yourself! I've never seen a girl who wears an oversized shirt like you! You look older like a grandma! I even thought you were my aunt who lived in Sicily," Stefano abruptly mocked her for more. Delilah is not a girl who picks up an argument with someone. She is not a talkative person. Therefore, she preferred to back off instead. Stefano leaned forward by placing both arms and pressing against the table in front of Delilah."I'm ashamed of my friends. They start talking about you because we are dating. Huh, I don't know how to talk about this to you anymore. Didn't I say to buy new clothes and get rid off your ponytail?" Delilah held her hair in a ponytail and innocently examined herself. Stefano, who glimpsed at her, shook in disbelief."Another thing, I need 75 Euros. There is something I want to buy," Stefano chi
