CHAPTER 20

Scott

"Boss," James called, knocking on my door. I grab my phone from my bedside table and check the time. It's only six in the morning. Lara is still sound asleep beside me.

After what happened yesterday, I asked her to stay. We watched movies with James, eating the chips and ice cream I bought. We went to sleep around one in the morning, and I couldn't ask for more. Everything was fine between us, except for the Mafia, who was on my tail trying to kill me. I smiled. I didn't want to ruin my mood. I planted a kiss on her forehead before I slowly sat up and went to the door.

"What is it?" I asked, walking out the door and closing it behind me.

"Boss, our men found Leo, but he's already dead."

"What? Dead?"

"Yes, Boss. Someone brutally killed him and chopped him like meat. Only his head was left untouched."

"Who did it?"
