Chereads / THE DUCHESS IS A MAFIA / Chapter 6 - ALREADY?

Chapter 6 - ALREADY?

A staring competition between Ariana and her brothers now was interrupted by a melodious voice not far from where they were all standing.

'Great, I'm safe. ' Ariana can't help but smile seeing her savior who arrived at the right time.

"Are you bullying my daughter there?" The person asked again while approaching them all.

"Mom, look at them. Blocking me from entering the house. " As usual, Ariana started to complain.  She know whatever happen her mom will always back her up.

Once she found out what happened, Adeline, their mother who had just returned from work outside started looking at her sons.

Just one glance has been enough to make all four of them sweat inside their shirts and start standing straight, lined up perfectly, and most importantly no longer blocking Ariana.

"What is the problem now? The blood still hasn't dried from my gloves due to my previous fight. Are you guys wanting to have a duel?"

"No mother!" Simultaneously, all four of them answered quickly.

They know if they ever deal with her, that means they can't even rest this entire night. That's how energetic their mother is even though she is old by age. She is one of the reasons why they think age is just a number!

"Good. Come here my daughter."

Ariana continued to smile satisfied with her victory even though she used dirty tactics. She slowly followed her mother and even stuck out her tongue, mocking the four elder brothers.

As soon as the two of them were walking quite far away, the four siblings broke their enforcement and looked at the duos.

"So, she met a guy." Asher is the one who started first.

"She said he is kind." Aiden can't believe what his sister just said.

"Flower and Ariana are not a match." Ashton can't let that go yet.

While Ariel started to look at Ariana back with his narrowed eyes, full of doubts and questions that started to linger inside his mind.

"Is she trying to be like a normal girl now?"

After Ariel let out that question all of the siblings started looking at their only little sister who is now happily walking away from them, following their mother.

From the back, they can see her who has short hair, and walks with big steps, spreading her legs as far as possible and her body movement also looks rough.

What is certain based on their observation now is that she does not look like a proper girl at all. If she didn't hold flowers or not in her school uniform, there is no doubt people will mistake her for a boy.

After being silent for some time, Aiden, Ashton, Asher, and Ariel come to the conclusion. Which is...

"Well…"

"Not a chance."

"At least she got 1 percent of potential now."

"Tsk, she's hopeless."

Each of the brothers can't help but just give up after seeing all that. There's no way Ariana can change in a short time. Just like her being good at martial art after taking classes, she definitely needs extra work to learn how to be a real girl.

That night,

"Tell me what you did wrong?"

Ariana goes by the name Ari (which means Eagle, Lion, and Sun-Like in different origins) while working in the underworld, currently carrying out the mission given by their leader, which means, her own father.

It's already been quite a while since her last doing this. She is resting from working because of her school stuff that needs to be focused on, and finally tonight her father gave her the task that she was always waiting for. It's fun for her to see people she caught trembling in fear of their own foolish mistakes.

"You look too young to be doing this. Are you sure you can kill me? Won't you get in trouble because of this?"

Ariana, who wore her favorite medical mask started scratching her nose which began to itch as she pressed this and that button on the cellphone she seized from her prey.

All of the people in their organization can choose to want or not to show their identity while working. How did they do that? Depends on themselves.

All four of her brothers didn't even bother to conceal their identities, as... Their victims would not live long to tell others anyway. While she did not yet know what her choice was, for now as she was still a student, she just thought that concealing her identity was necessary.

"I'm young, but I'm different. Now can you not waste my time and answer my question, Mr. Morris."

Ariana pressed her foot on the chest of the man who was now lying on the floor of the building. She didn't have to pity the man for what he did. He didn't even deserve to be forgiven.

"I get it now. You are that person's infamous daughter, are you? Are you proud to be born into a crime family that is covered in blood? You guys are not normal people at all. " Morris is trying to provoke her which is a mistake.

Ariana without warning continued to kick the man in the abdomen, causing him to moan before she steps on him again.

"Tell you what, you can't judge people just like that. Just because we come from underworld organizations and kill people, doesn't mean we are bad people. We are not that cheap type of mafia. Our mafia way is different, we even pay taxes and also do good for society. Of course, to the public, we are being described as a bunch of criminals who do everything against the law. But are laws too pure?"

This Morris person is actually a scientist working under a famous pharmaceutical in the city that supports by the government. But he is not there because of his own ability. He was also there after smearing his hand with blood.

"Where is the formula?"

"Even if you got the original formula you can't do anything about that. We have already made the medicine and waiting for it to be distributed."

"Tsk, here you said about justice and law. That new medicine is not even safe for the public and you wanted to sell it? I bet you already make a plan to make another type of medicine that can make them healthy after they suffer side effects from the previous one. And then you become more rich while people had to spend lots of money to buy all different types of drugs from you."

Morris looks as if he's been busted. His face is full of sweat now.

"Bingo! Look like I'm in the right."

"Whatever it is, you can't stop us now as we are already at this stage." Morris still dared to speak up.

"Should I care about that? What I'm doing here is just complying with what the client wants. And they wanted the original formula that you stole before you killed the original creator."

"What if I tell you that all the information is in my brain now? The one and only formula that exists is here and nowhere else. What are you going to do about that? " Morris said while laughing. Feeling satisfied as he did really erase all evidence of his evil deeds and memorize everything before this happened.

Ariana stared at the man before smirking behind her mask. She can detect that this person is telling the truth which is very convenient for her to kill him now.

"Ari, I already checked his phone and go through all information, nothing suspicious going on. He didn't even have any other accomplices. You can finish him now."

Just in time, Ashton's voice echoed in her ear from the earbuds that she wore, telling her the question.

"Then, thank you for being honest." Ariana started by shooting at the man's feet first.

This person killed the original creator of the formula with the same technique so due to the client's request, Ariana did the same exact one.

"Argh! What are you doing? Didn't you hear what I said? I memorized all those formulas. Didn't you need me alive to know them?!"

Ariana began to refill her empty pistol.

"My client wanted the formula to disappear from the face of the earth after realizing how dangerous it is. So because you are the only one who knows about it..."

Bang!

This time Ariana shot at the man's body without explaining any further.

"You-You can ju-just hand me to the police," Morris said while panting in pain. His eyes were also full of tears.

"Really? When you have a connection from police, prosecutor, lawyer, and even minister to back you off and release you just like that? You already escaped from the grip of laws several times before. " Ariana now raised her gun back for her one last move.

"This is what makes us different. We are loyal until the end."

Morris cries louder.

"Please... Sa-Save me. I will do what-whatever that client of yours wanted to. I pay them how much they want. No, I pay you more than what they pay. Just name it. So.. ."

Bang!

Ariana continued to pull her last bullet. Because what their client wants the most are this person's death anyway and he did say he will do whatever her client wanted to.

"We protect what we need to protect and we kill and hunt people that need to be killed which even the law can't even handle them. Someone... Like you. " Ariana blurts that out while keeping her weapon away.

"Finish."

"Already?"
