Thirty-Three.
(Lily's POV)
After Alphonso's birthday and what he said to me in the car, I started to contemplate telling him the truth.I had come to love him, and I just felt that maybe it was time I just ripped off that bandage and told him the truth.I had no way of knowing how he would handle it, but the least I could do was tell him the truth. If he wanted to be there for me, well and good; if not, then I planned on leaving and never looking back.But I didn't know how to start.I did have a feeling that Lola wasn't just going to let the matter go. If she had come to our apartment building then, I had little time to come clean.Alphonso kissed me on the cheek, snapping me out of my thoughts.“Good morning, honey, did you really sleep?” He asked.I smiled and said, “Yeah, just woke up early.”Wrong. I hadn’t slept a wink.He frowned. “Are you okay?” He asked as he poured himself some coffee in his to-go cup.“I was thinking that maybe you and I coulRelated chapters

(Lola's POV)I put a hold on following Lily. I still wanted my life back, but I was now focused on one specific person, Daniel.I was following him, getting his schedule down.He left his house at exactly seven in the morning. I would watch as his beautiful wife would walk him to his car, kiss him goodbye, and wave him off as he drove to work.He would get to work by half past eight, where he would stay in there till around noon.He would go to the country club or the bar opposite it, where I met him, and he seemed to be trying to find my replacement. I guess he didn't care if I was around or gone, which for some reason hurt my feelings. I expected him to at least acknowledge I was gone, and take some time to replace me.Then get lunch at a specific restaurant, and he always wanted his lunch made a specific way or he would throw a fit.Take his lunch to go and go back to the office, where he would stay till seven in the evening. Go to that apartment, and

(Lily’s POV)I made sure to ask the doctor to forward me the test results via email. I decided to make a video to Alphonso explaining everything that happened from the point we crossed paths, to how I felt about him, to Lola coming to demand her life back and me refusing to give it back, up to where I got pregnant with his child, and even attaching the doctor’s report.I didn't plan on giving it to him, but instead I sent it to Nine with explicit instructions on what to do.I was sure Lola was going to want her life back now that she had nowhere else to turn. And she wasn't going to be nice about it.I, on the other hand, was happy to be having a child of my own.“How are you feeling today?” Alphonso asked when he came back from work and found me and Frank in the living room watching some children's movies.“I am feeling good, actually; maybe I should think about going back to work tomorrow.” I stated.“Not before we get the doctor's results.” He insisted

(Chris’ POV)I was bored with the older woman I was living with. I had been saving up some money I had been taking from her account for when I was ready to leave.I had racked up around two hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and I was ready to leave.But I felt like I needed much more.I had organized for us to have this sensual massage session, where I would be massaging her while she massaged me.“Baby, I am even ashamed to ask you this, but I am in deep trouble.” I said this while I was massaging her.“Is it something I can help you with?” She asked as she moaned softly at the massage I was giving her.I sighed, “Or never mind.”She turned to look at me.“You know you can tell me anything, right?”“Remember that time I came home with bruises and I told you I was mugged?”She nodded.I hung my head in shame and said, “That wasn't true.”She placed her hand on mine to try to reassure me that she was there for me.“I actually

(Alphonso’s POV)Lily had already started shopping for the decorations, so I wanted to surprise her by getting Frank's present early.She said I needed to get something big, so I decided to get him a car. More of a toy car, but a car nonetheless. Also a bike and a game someone his age could play.I felt proud of my gifts.I packed everything in the car. I was going to bring them to my study when Frank went to sleep.I got into the car, and as I started the car to drive, I got a call.“Am I speaking to Mr. Alphonso Gambino?” The man on the other end asked.“This is him,” I replied, unsure of what I was expecting to hear.“Would you come to Grayson Hospital? There is a woman here who claims to be your wife…” That was all I needed to hear.“I am on my way.” I answered and hung up.I wasn't very far from that hospital, and with how I drove, I was sure I broke every speed limit. It was a surprise that I wasn't pulled over by a cop.I walked in

(Lola’s POV)I was out of cards to play, so the only other thing I could think of doing was getting rid of Lily Sharpe. I needed to have my life back, and if she was gone, then I would get to control the narrative of how everything happened.I had the knife I used on Daniel in my possession. When Michael, that bastard, turned against me, he must have pulled the knife out of Daniel’s leg and dropped it on the floor.I made sure to cover my face with a hoodie while I waited a few feet away from the company building.I also had a line of sight to Chris’ car. He, unlike Sharpe, wasn't always looking around at his surroundings.When Sharpe walked out of the building, I started to walk slowly towards her. I hid my small frame in the middle of the crowd of people who were leaving work for home.My eyes kept shifting between Sharpe and Chris; unfortunately, Chris noticed me, and I had a small window of time, so I increased my speed and got to her just in time to stab
THE GANGSTER'S FAKE WIFE Thirty-Nine.
(Alphonso’s POV)There was something that didn't sit right with me about Lily's story.Like if they were torturing her for information and she was strapped down, would they just hold her head and hands in place but not her feet?I noticed that as she was wearing her heels, she insisted on very expensive clothing as ‘she didn't want to be seen in tatters.’Most people put comfortability before style when leaving the hospital, but not Lily.“Are you sure you can walk in heels?” I asked, concerned that she was still too weak to even stabilize herself and needed me to help her get out of bed.She smiled and said, “I won't be walking much; I'll be wheeled to the doors of the hospital, and you can carry me to the car.”I thought it was interesting that she would just assume I'd carry her to the car.But a nurse walked in with a wheelchair.“Mr. Gambino,” she smiled and gave me a nod.“Hello?!” Lily called out passively, “maybe stop smiling at my husband and just get me out of this bed.”I w

(Lily’s POV)A few weeks have passed since I left the hospital. Chris had been nice to me and very supportive.My baby bump was starting to form, and I was starting to be one of those annoying women who would love to tell anyone that looked at them that I was pregnant.Chris had moved us into this small town; I doubt it could be found online, maybe on a map, and I had begun baking and selling it to the people around town.“You don't have to stay here with me; I am more than capable of taking care of myself.” I told Chris as he helped me get the freshly baked cookies out of the oven.“Why would I do that? I am enjoying life as a baker now.” He joked.I chuckled as I shook my head. “This is the life I wanted, but you don't belong here. You are a city person.”He frowned. “What does that even mean?”“It means that sooner or later, this life is going to get boring for you.” I replied honestly.He shrugged, “and until then, I'll be here to help you.” He replied, “besides you will also get
THE GANGSTER'S FAKE WIFE Forty-One.
(Lola’s POV)Alphonso had been acting weird. He didn't want me sleeping in the same bed as him, so he moved me to the guest room.I was so mad at him but I decided to let it go.His reasoning was that he didn't know exactly who to trust and needed to confirm my story.I'm guessing Lily must have been a very good wife to him if he had to second-guess who his real wife was.He also wouldn't let Frank, our son, near me. I wasn't so mad about that, but considering he didn't want me in his bed, I needed a bargaining chip, and the child was it.I decided to be the mother I never was.I didn't work, so I would give Catherine the day off and go get Frank myself.“What do you want to do with mommy today?” I asked him with a smile planted on my face.He was less than five-years-old I doubt I needed to do too much to win him over. Especially if Lily was a great mother, he’ll just think I&rsq
