Lord Dom was in his office looking through Celia’s biography again trying to understand her reasons for leaving Chicago to New York.
“She has a father, but she fled here to be with her cousin. Was she running from someone? No. Was she sent by someone?”
He was engrossed in his thoughts when one of his men entered his office.
“Boss, we caught the whistleblowers,”
“They were many?” he asked.
“Two. He has an accomplice,”
“I’ll be in the yard,”
“Yes, boss,”
He glanced at the documents again before leaving for the yard.
He got to the yard and met two badly wounded men tied down struggling to talk with thier sealed mouths.
“Unseal their mouths,” he ordered, and they unsealed it.
“Please soare me, I have a family,” man 1 cried.
“Boss, I promise to do better, please let me live,” man 2 cried.
He signaled someone to seal thier mouths back and exhaled heavily.
“Which of them reported the evasion?” he asked.
“That one,”
“Feed the other to the dog and make him watch before his turn,”he ordered, and the men started struggling to talk.
“Yes, boss,”
*
He returned to his office later and met Jake there.
“Boss,”
“Why’re here?”
“Little lady is at school, and her nanny is locked in, so I decide to do some work here,”
“Good. That nanny…she clearly challenged me and I instantly figure out how she manipulated Aria,” he said, and looked at Jake who seemed clueless, “She used the right words that kids love to hear,”
“Boss, there are no cctv camera in the interview room, but the men stationed outside sense the violence. She threatened her nanny with the three last knives on her, and…”he was saying, and Lord Dom hit the desk.
“So? Are you saying she gladly accepted her because she was out of knives?! I can win everybody, but I can never win Aria, she could already sense that you were there to spy on her nanny… so now tell me, you believe she accepted that nanny because she was out of knives?”
“Not that, boss,”
“Listen to me! That girl is sent to manipulate my daughter. A college student on break who knows how to handle kids needed money desperately and entered my mansion to cross me. That’s her mission, she is here to manipulate Aria and buy her to their side. The whistleblowers have been dealt with, but it won’t end there, my enemies will won’t back off, but they can’t beat me. Aria is the only one who can beat me and they wili use her to get me, so get your tact together!”
“Forgive me, boss,”
“Don’t be swayed by her innocents and do your job properly. Those who look innocent are more dangerous. Any new reports,”
“I dropped it on the desk and I also sent it to your mail; informations about her family,”
“The summary,”
“Her father has always been pursued by loan sharks, and he is currently on the run. She could be thier target, she might also be pursed,”
“A good reason for a college student to be desperate. And?”
“Her cousin, is a legal cousin, no blood relation; the niece of her stepmother,”
“And they got that close?”
“Influenced by same school and same neighborhood,”
“Any other close person?”
“She broke up with her boyfriend before she left Chicago, it was a humiliating breakup and she was never seen again at school afterwards,”
“A good reason to run,”
“What was she doing the day I was attacked?”
“Boss, she is a diligent hardworking student with several part-time jobs, but on that night… there was a picture of her, she slept over at a club, the picture captured her leaving,”
“The picture? Where is it?!”
“On the desk,”
Lord Dom look at the picture of Celia in front of the club, and his eyes widened in realization.
“I knew it. She is related to the incident in Chicago,”
“Boss, she broke up with her boyfriend right after because he cheated. She might be there to clear her head…”
“And she fled to New York, barged into my mansion, got accepted by my daughter, and started manipulating her! Does that make sense to you?!”
“I’ll go drag her out of her room and interrogate her. We now have reasonable doubts,”
“No, we don’t,” he muttered, and Jake looked at him, “What we’ve is concrete evidence, but as I said, we can’t beat her because we can’t beat Aria so don’t act rashly l. Once Aria is returns from school, I’ll give you the order. We will make Aria get rid of her herself,”
“I’ll await your orders, sir,”
*
Lord Dom waited impatiently until Jake left to pick up Aria from school — if Celia was sent to manipulate his daughter, he was determined to turn Aria against her to get rid of her.
“But how is she related to that incidence?” he thought.
He got distracted from his thoughts when one of his men barged into his Im office.
“Such insolence!”
“Boss! Little lady was attacked, they requested for backup,”
“Attacked?!” he shouted, and took his gun.
“Boss, our men are on their way there,”
“Get out of my way!” he shouted, and shot the man’s leg before he stormed out.
He entered his car a hen they received news from Jake that it was Bianca.
“Bianca!” he screamed.
*
He sat under the gazebo in his compound to wait for them fuming in anger when thier car drove in.
“Daddy!” Aria shouted, and ran into his embrace.
“Hi, Dominic,” Bianca said, smiling cheerfully.
“What really happened?” Lord Dom bluntly asked.
“Boss, we thought it was an attack—…” Jake was saying but Bianca cut in.
“I’ll do the talking,”
“Jake, leave with Aria,” Lord Dom said.
Aria went to Celia, and they all left together.
“Isn’t she too young to handle Aria? Why hire a young nanny?”
“Explain that attack!”
“Gosh. That’s so loud, and scary. But that’s just you,”
“Why’d you do tbat? Why’d you staged an attack?”
“A ground entrance. Aria said I was boring, so I wanted to improve. I answered your question, so answer mine,”
“Mind your own business, Aria chose her nanny herself,”
“Why did Aria chose her? Why? Why a young girl that you have to worry about?”
“Let’s go in, I believe you’ve something to report,”
*
They both went to his private living room and he offered her a drink.
“Let’s get married,” she blurted, and he scoffed in disgust.
“Reason?”
“Because you’re single and I am. No. Because we’re engaged, you should fulfill your commitment,”
“That engagement was longed broken,”
“No. You broke it,”
“I got married, and gave up the west to compensate your father, so get a life,”
“Yes, I’m free from the engagement, and might get engaged again. The east… Lord Gregory offered a truce,” she said, and he chuckled.
“The old geezer has a wife, I heard she is still alive and many side women, so which spot will you occupy? He doesn’t even have a son,
“To his brother,” she blurted, and he looked at her, “Yes, to his brother,” she added, and smirk.
“Oh…”
“I don’t want it. But we both know that if my father accepts, I have to obey,”
“I won’t attend, save the boring details,”
“If the east and the west come together, they will attack you and take over New York. You’re no match for the two forces, we both know that. I am on your side, I’m against the truce, so let’s get married. I’m getting along with Aria now. Fire her nanny I loathe young frail girls, I’ll take care of Aria myself. She likes me now,”
“I’m married,” he muttered .
“But she is d£ad! How long will be devoted to a d£as woman?” she yelled.
“Shut your mouth!” he lashed, and aimed his gun at her.
“Fire it. You’re infamous for that; you always fire your gun once it’s yielded. Fire it. Shoot me, and let the truce between the east and the west prevail without marriage. Let there be war in New York. Shoot me you c0ward!” she shouted, and he fired his gun up in anger
“You’re so d£ad!” he snapped, in anger and squeezed her throat, pinning her to the wall.
“Dom… Dom…” she slurred, trying to free herself.
“I’ll suffocate you to d£ath, and pin it on the East. The truce dies with you,”
“Do— Domm…” she slurred already out of breath.
He tightened his grip on her neck when he felt a small touch on his leg. He turned to see Aria.
“Daddy, help me with my assignment,” Aria said.
He looked at her for a while before releasing Bianca who fell to the floor immediately, trying to catch her breath.
“Aria, go to your nanny or Jake,”
“No. We were asked to write about our parents…”
“Aria, do you want me to help you with that?” Bianca asked, after she composed herself.
“No. You aren’t my parent!”
“Why? I can as well be. I thought we were getting along,”
“Bianca!” Lord Dom snapped.
“Aria, wili you go hunting with me?”
“Bianca, what are you doing?”
“I am here as my father’s subtle, let’s go hunt, I’ll report to you,”
“Asia has no business there,”
“Aria, I’ll teach you how to shoot and we can hunt together. Do you want to?” Bianca asked, patting Aria’s hair.
“Yessss! I love to!”
“You see, she likes it. I told you, Aria and I are getting along pretty fine,”
“Is anyone there?” he shouted, and one of his men entered the room.
“Boss,”
“Take Aria to her room,” he blurted.
“Daddy, my assignment…”
“Later, I’ve things to discuss with Bianca,”
“Ok,” she grumbled, and packed her books together.
“Go on Aria, I’ll come to your room, we can discuss more about our hunt. Ok?”
“Ok,”
Celia entered the room, and they all looked at her.
“Let’s go, Aira,”
“Hey, stop there!” Bianca said
“Me?” Celia nurture, taken aback.
“Yes, you. Can you shoot?”
“No,”
“Then you should join us, you should join the hunt. Not as a nanny, you should hunt with us. Do you like that, Aria?”
“She should, your nanny should also learn how to shoot if you will,”Lord Dom said, with a sly smile.
“Me… no, that’s won’t be necessary,” Celia flinched. Learning how to shoot was never in her to-do lists.
“No one asked. Take Aria and leave. Bye, Aria,”Bianca waved.
Celia bowed slightly and left with Aria.
“Why’d you invite her to join the hunt?” Lord Dom asked.
“Why’d you approve? You’ve doubts about her, or you don’t trust her to take care of Aria? After I get rid of her, I’ll take care of Aria myself, we should get married then,”
“Yes. Get rid of her, get Aria’s approval and we will get married,” he said, and she smiled brightly.
“Deal!” she said, and raised her glass, and he made a toast with her.
“This is an effective way to get rid of them both. The undercover nanny, and my lousy ex-fiancee,” he thought, and emptied his glass of wine.
