Jin-Ae, patiently waiting for the coming days where she would be having time together with Sung-Ho, her love, whereas way beyond the bonds there was Sung-Ho, after receiving the awards, he got energetic with the business, hardly in a day he exchanged words with Jin-Ae, she understood him, therefore, didn't pressurise things for far.
However, after days she got busy with her life too, so that she couldn't miss him more and ended up interrupting him in business.
And to no one's thinking, there was working of Daniele Stryker on the way to his business of killing people out of fun, this soon became the addiction for him, to kill people and fuck whore in the club, the concern of protecting his sister was high to the level that he had to get over his stress by fucking woman in his club, doubling the security of Victoria but he couldn't help the fear of losing her to Russians, therefore, his maintained to make her complete the studies from home, he couldn't risk the life of her.
"If I found scratches on her body then you would have to pay for that," this was a warning he gave to the bodyguards every morning before moving out for work.
In unison, they nodded and bowed to him.
"Dad, I want to meet that lady," he smirked because he yearned to investigate more about the person who was dubbed with the name of Seo-Jin, and other than his secret workers there was her, who would help him to know more, considering the doubt in his head about the same. As well as he went straight to his dad, not wanting quarrels after on.
"Why?"
"I want to see her, that's all," he let out in the tone of suspicion, not trying to hint anything but he failed as Cristian wrinkled his brows in the direction of him while sipping the coffee in the backyard.
"You can't meet her," he whispered, eyeing that suspicion, he understood the move he was struggling to throw while suddenly mentioning the name of his birth giver.
"Why?"
"She isn't here anymore when we met-" he lied with the hope that Daniele wouldn't cause more struggles for him to deal with after. Pausing the phrase he made the sound of slurping and then dared to continue his speaking.
"...met and she left the place afterwards, " he lied with the perfection in his tone, and there was Daniele who wasn't deceived by his dad, so he nodded in agreement and walked away while grabbing the phone from his pocket.
"Kaden, Seo-Jin possession in the city, all of it, find it," he whispered, knowing that he would find her by turning the tables in his ways.
"Alright!"
After 10 minutes, he received the call from Kaden, "Yes!"
"I have forwarded you the location, boss!"
"Alright, get ready with the car, we are heading there in a couple of minutes,"
"Okay, " hanging up the call, he adjusted the hem of his suit in front of the mirror and headed towards the exit of his room.
"Let's find out about the truth," he whispered to himself.
"Please," Kaden opened the door of the SUV, and with that, they soon drove in the following direction shown on the map.
After the passage of half an hour, they parked the car in front of the mansion, eyeing the mansion exterior he smirked.
"Indeed, he is rich," whispering to himself, he climbed out of the car, being followed by the guards behind.
"How many people live in here?"
"His ex-wife only, she got the mansion in alimony," Kaden uttered getting closer to him.
"What's her name?"
"Jae," Daniele nodded and directed the steps towards the front door.
Once, he reached the front door, Kaden pressed the doorbell, and they all paused for the individual to welcome them.
And there on they were greeted by the maid working in the mansion.
"Welcome, sir," that maid was aware of their identity as they were being the most feared mafias in Italy.
"Mrs Jae here?" Kaden asked.
She nodded while directing them towards the path to her presence.
They nodded and followed behind with patience appeared on the fronts.
"Mrs Jae, there is someone to meet you," that maid knocked on the door of her room while comforting them in the living room.
"Coming," she yelled from the room and then the sound of her foot fell into the environment.
"She is coming," she muttered to them, that walked into the way to the kitchen.
Eyeing the interior, Daniele appeared to connect the sights with her, for some moments, the sights soften at the sight of his mother but within a matter of seconds, turned into the rage of years.
"Who are you?" Jae asked while pointing at them, and walking closer to them.
"Cristian's son, Daniele Stryker," Daniele spoke with the utterances of confidence in his voice, which was enough for Jae to run a shiver down her spine, wrinkling the brows she couraged to speak.
"I don't have anything to talk to you then I guess," Jae spoke averting the gaze.
"I won't take long," Daniele had no plans to frighten her, pulling the triggers at the top of her therefore he softened the tone for that.
Jae seated without uttering anything out in response, and waited for his question, considering the power they held, she maintained to remain silent for the sake of her life, however, she wasn't scared with the fact that her son was seating in front of her, her prediction was right, by guessing that if Cristian appeared then one day he would be appearing, with the urge to know the past happening, which was like a nightmare in her memories.
Smirking she let out, "After all, as dad so the son," she taunted with the utterances that didn't fall into the senses of Daniele.
"Tell me what you want to know about your cruel Dad?" she again uttered with the slight of annoyance, which Daniele sensed.
"Why did you leave me?" he questioned
And Jae widened her eyes at him, not predicting something like that coming from his mouth.
"Tell?" eyeing the nervousness, Daniele fell into the deep thought.
With that, Jae glanced at the guards of him, standing behind him, somewhere Daniele understood the hesitation in her senses, so ordered them to leave.
"Tell me now," he said again.
"I don't want to remember that time," Jae muttered, gulping down the water.
"But I want, not just this but everything about the past," his stubborn behaviour was testing the anger building inside Jae.
"You lived without knowing the past till now, so I guess it's not important to you to know," she gently mumbled, needing him to leave the past, but as expected he didn't.
"I lived, and you didn't look after your son if they are fine," his tone hinted at the emotions.
"of course, you lived in luxury, so nothing to worry,"
He chuckled,
"Such a pathetic mother," Daniele spoke, not wanting to sound rude but that didn't stop Jae from breaking down in tears, watching the rudeness in the tone for her.
"You can say that, and now leave," somehow fighting with the tears, she hardly handled the tears into the eyes.
Daniels smiled weakly,
"I don't -"
"LEAVE," Jae yelled and soon the tears she held in her eyes, rolled down the cheeks.
For some moment, Daniele stayed silent, watching his mother breaking down.
And without further utterances, he left the place.
"DON'T SHOW YOUR FACE AGAIN," she added, and Daniele paused, turning around to watch the hatred in her complexion, he giggled and left.

~Daniele's POV~
'I wouldn't ever make my woman, have the past like her,' I thought to myself while eyeing the hurtful expression on her face, which even hardened the heart inside for people, for this world, for everyone around me.
Watching her words, I left the place and soon climbed inside the SUV without whispering anything to anybody on the way back to the mansion. Recognising the words of dad, I came across the fact that he made her face hell, and my anger boiled inside the veins, urging me to get the answers to the questions that were rising inside me.
Being occupied with the thoughts, I didn't realise that we reached back to our mansion.
Hurriedly, I walked inside, wanting to see Dad and there he was, speaking with someone on the phone. Getting closer to him, coming into his sight, I waited for him to hang up the call because with the expression I held on the fronts, he could imagine the anger building inside.
"Alright, we will talk later," with that utterance he hung up the call.
"What happened?"
"People are right that mafias are the monsters, evils, the worst nightmare for someone," I let out.
"What do you mean?"
"Just because of you, my whole world ended with just killing people, fucking whores and no sympathy for people,"
"Get to the point, Daniele," sensing his frustration, I decided to let out.
"Just because of you, I couldn't get the love of a mother-"
"Did you meet her?"
"Yes, I did and you know what, you are the reason for everything that I couldn't save my love, I couldn't get the love of mom, I couldn't live the life I desire-"
"What do you mean?"
"...this mafia ruined everything,"
"How can you get so emotional after meeting her, that day you wanted to kill her and now,"
"Yes, I wish I could kill her but not when those tears held the truth behind the truth of your darkness, she lived in,"
"You are fucking mafia, you can't be soft for everyone," he raised his voice at me.
I laughed
"I can't be rude to whom I did wrong with, " raising my voice, I left the space with him.
"You are ruining everything, Daniele. You don't have to be emotional," I could hear him yelling from behind but I paid no attention as this sound of the door closing interrupted him from uttering anything more.
Yes, I hated the fact that I became weak with the sights of those tears, however, I couldn't change the world of her, my mom.
I calmed down my anger while biting my lips and decided one thing for sure, that I wouldn't bring the hell for someone by myself.
"I promise,"

~Jin-Ae's POV~
"Dad, I am walking out with Bae," I spoke before disappearing for the sight of them, as three of them were energetic with the business.
"Don't be late," the voice of brother fell into my ears, and soon the smile crept on my lips.
Climbing inside the car, I drove in her direction, as she planned to meet me.
Therefore, I planned on calling Tae's wife, as she was new to our group with the princess of year's.
I dialled her contact, as Tae-Hyun was occupied with the business on the business tour.
"Hello-," and the next thing I remembered was that the truck and my car collided badly, everything coloured black in a matter of seconds.

~Ji-Hoon's POV~
Working with them, I got so involved that the utterances of Jin-Ae fell after her disappearance of her from the sights. Feeling happy for her, as her smiling face was the best thing that occurred to me every morning, but the reason was still not known by any one of us, and I didn't force to know because I knew she would tell herself when she feels.
"She looks delighted nowadays," Dad communicated while eyeing the files in front of him.
"What's the reason?" he expanded and we both laughed, unknown to the fact of her happiness.
"Dad, we don't know but watching her like that, really makes me happy otherwise before the time she couldn't even know how to smile," I added.
"I guess I know the reason," Ari let out, catching the attention of us.
"What?"
"I guess she is back with Sung-Ho," she mumbled.
"Seriously -" I couldn't even finish the sentence as the phone started ringing.
I excused myself and accepted the call.
"Hello?"
The words of some strangers fell into ears, the world of my happiness suddenly darkened, and sheds made me worst.
"No, this can't happen," I hoisted my voice at that person but before he answers, Dad interrupted me. Running towards the exit, I hesitated.
"What happened?" he spoke and I flipped.
"What happened? Ji-Hoon?" Ari hurriedly came intimate to me, with worried looks.
"Dad, Jin-Ae met an accident," I murmured and sauntered out of the mansion.
