Chapter 48 Comfortable life

Richard's POV

"That's not gonna work " I replied .

"But why not ? Rita's not in our way anymore so why won't grand pa give his support to us ?"She asked.

"I don't want to talk about this , Cindy " I replied with a frown . Rita just come back already . I know you're out there ,alive .

Since Rita disappeared I've given my underworld job my full attention . No stupid drug Lord dares mess with me except for a few and Cindy ? Everyday my love for her just keeps dwindling .

"Richard , are you even listening to me ?"She asked and tapped my shoulders .

"What were you saying ?"I asked.

"Richard, I've been apologising for the way I spoke to you earlier , but you're not even listening. You've still not forgiven me ?"She asked while sobbing .

"Babe, you know I can't stay angry at you for more than a minute " I said and used my thumb to wipe her tears .

"Babe , do you think Rita is still alive ?" She asked to my surprise.

"I don't know but I think so " I replied.
