Natasha blinked twice before bursting into laughter.
"What's so funny?"Brad said.
"You.. you are joking ,right?"
"For your sake,I wish I was. I really wish I was. "
"So, you're telling me I'm living my dream?"She asked smiling like a kid in a candy store.
"Your what?"
"My webnovel dream. I've always wondered what it would be like to be kidnapped. "
"So, you are saying you wanted to be kidnapped?"
"Yeah ,who wouldn't want to be kidnapped by the mafia?"
"Literally any and every sane person on the planet. You're nuts."
"I tend to get that a lot. Just kidding! I bearly talk to people."
"Why is that?"
"I don't know. I guess it's my dad. He's kept me under lock and key,my whole life . So,you see I don't exactly know what freedom feels like. So,I won't miss it." She paused. "Plus, it's kinda the same thing just with a little bit of thrill."
"I'm sorry to disappoint you but I don't think your webnovels prepared you for what you are going to experience here."He said with a sad smile .
"And how do you know that? Have you ever read a webnovel? Have ever even read a book at all?"
"There was this time I tried reading a book."
"And?"
"I couldn't get read more than ten pages but it still counts,right?"
" It doesn't count. Seriously? What was I expecting? For criminals to actually read?"
"Hey, don't be so stereotypical. There are criminals who read books you know."
"Like who?"
"Like boss. Yeah,he likes to read."Brad felt victorious with his reply.
"No way! You mean Hulk reads?"
"You nicknamed him Hulk?"
"Yeah,he needed a better nickname. I mean who calls someone devil? So, un-creative. "
"There's a reason for that name,princess."Diavolo suddenly walked in.
'Oh no!Did be hear everything?'Natasha thought.
"Wha..what are you doing here boss?"
"Since when do I have to answer to you?"
"He was just asking you a question."She said quietly but with the look on their faces,they definitely heard her.
"what did you just say?"Diavolo looked really angry. She prayed to God to save her.
He suddenly received a phone call and he spoke in a language she couldn't understand. She thought it was Italian.
"You had better watch your tongue, princess. Unless,you want me to cut it out."He said after receiving the phone call and walked out.
"Do you want to die?"
"No,not before I do everything on my bucket list." She replied.
"Well,I hope your list is short because if you keep this up then I don't think your death will be so far away."He said and left as well.
What did he mean by that? Was he warning her or threatening her. The former was more likely though.
What's with humans and thinking death is so far anyway? Oh well.
