Chapter 130
CHASE GOTTI
Finally we were back at my mansion, Emma was crying softly and she was being comforted by Waylen who was hugging her.
Rowan on the other hand, was with a girl who was hugging him. I had never seen her before but I knew one thing, if she was here with the family, she has to be very important to him.
This was the moment that I wished that Calista was here.
She had called me earlier but I didn’t know why she was calling because she disconnected the call on purpose.
I didn’t call her back because I was busy trying to get my father’s body to the morgue and now my brothers and I were back home discussing how to revenge.
This was going to be a bloody war. We already have men and ammunition and we had decided to strike the next morning before they could expect it.
I took a deep inhale on my cigar and drank it down with liquor. I wasn’t going to get drunk anytime soon I was just washing down the pain, finding out the real killers of Madison, watching my father die before my eyes and I couldn’t even get to say anything. It was painful. There were so many things I didn’t say, time I didn’t have. If I had known that this was going to turn out this way I would have spent every moment closer to home.
And I still had to make up my mind about Calista. My father gave his blessings to each and every one of us so he did his part. If he was okay with me choosing Calista then I had to convince her dad that I was indeed the right guy for her.
I felt the ring in my pocket. I had been carrying it around for days too scared to pop out the big question.
“We got company” Rowan said as he peeked down the blinds interrupting me from my thoughts.
“Who is there?” I asked absentmindedly as he replied,
“Luciano Profaci. He came here with guards as usual.” He replied as I frowned.
Luciano wasn’t the type to come and pay me a visit. Maybe he came here because he heard that my dad was dead. Probably what the media would be covering now.
I shrugged it off and drank my liquor as the door opened and he walked in angrily.
“Where is Chase Gotti?” He asked as I looked at him and said nothing. I just took another sip of my liquor. He saw me and made his way towards me and the next thing I know he punched me and I fell backwards to the table.
“What’s going on here?” Rowan said standing up as Luciano’s guards brought out their guns and our men did the same also.
Waylen covered Emma with his body who was shaking violently. I wondered what was wrong with Luciano. Is he mad that I took his daughter home?
I held my jaws and just stood up dusting myself.
“Is there a reason for this unwanted visit?” I asked looking at him dead in his eyes. This time I didn’t care about etiquette or ego. He had no right to touch me when I did nothing wrong.
“Where is my daughter? Where is my Lucia?” He asked as my eyes widened in shock.
The reason why he was shaking wasn’t because of anger but fear. I understood it now.
I was the last person with her. Granted I had to be held responsible for what happened to her.
“She is at my penthouse. I left her there before heading to the hospital. I haven’t seen her since. She called me, maybe she is asleep now or some thing” I said trying to calm him down as he shook his head.
“She came home. She came back home but left this afternoon. She told May that she wanted to see someone. She didn’t need guards and May also said that as soon as she got off the call, she left. You are the only one that would make her do such a thing so where is she?” He said as I stepped backwards shaking my head.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
“That’s impossible. Chase has been with us throughout today. We just got back from the hospital. They never saw each other.” Waylen said as Luciano snapped and turned to shoot the vase beside him as Emma screamed.
“Stop lying and covering up for him. He did something to her. Is it because your dad is dead? Do you think I have something to do with that? Just look at it, taking her away the night your dad was shot and seeing he didn’t survive, you took her knowing she loves you and will never question you. How dare you?” Luciano yelled as I held him by his shoulders.
“My brothers are telling you the truth. I promise I had no idea. Why would I kill the woman I want to marry and spend the rest of my life with?” I said bringing out the box that contained the ring that I was too chickened out for the last few days.
I took a deep breath and I continued,
“I will find out what happened and bring her home safely to you. I promise. You can trust me in this.” I said as he finally calmed down and his men dropped their guns so did mine.
“Well, if she wasn’t called by you, who else would make her leave so abruptly without a notice?.” Rowan asked as Emma replied,
“Charlotte! She told me that she would see Charlotte today that she told her something upsetting but she would still help her. She said that the matter concerned Chase but she didn’t tell me what it was”
Everyone turned to look at me waiting for a response as I said,
“Calista told me that Charlotte and Grayson were responsible for Madison’s death those years ago.” I announced as everyone flinched.
I was pretty sure Emma would have a miscarriage with the amount of shocking news that she had been receiving this day.
