Fall For My Ex’s Mafia Father

Chapter 80

I'm speechless as I stare at the dark space where she was just a minute ago.
Then I blink, wondering if maybe I dreamt it all-it happened so fast

But when I look down into my hand, the note is still there.

Shit. Shit. What the hell was I going to do with this?

It's a little bomb, really- I know that. If Kent finds me with this

note, I am done for, relationship with Daniel or no.

But to whom, really, do I owe my allegiance? Should I give this

note to Alden, my father, who I know loves me?

Should I give it to Kent, out of allegiance to Daniel? Or to Kent

himself, out of allegiance to him? After all, he protected me last

night — kept me

But what, really, happened last night? Was it just coincidence

that my father and his family weren't in the room when the attack

happened?

Kent said it was a kidnapping attempt, maybe for me, but was it? Was I ever
really in danger? Did my father perhaps arrange it as a way to get me away from
Kent, to get him out from his clutches?

2/3

I groan, leaning back against the pillows, feeling far too inadequate to answer
these kinds of questions. The fact was, I had absolutely no idea what was really
happening, and here was this stupid note, this test of my loyalty.

Everything depended on my actions next — who I gave it to, whether or not I
flushed it down the toilet like Fiona said. But even if I did that, and my dad or
Kent ever found out that I had this piece of evidence and didn’t give it to them-
God damnit, I'm screwed either way.

Swiftly, I peel open the note, hoping that its contents give me any hint about what
I should do next. But it’s just two lines of cryptic poetry.

The little wren sleeps, warm in its nest,

The mink at its door doth it detest.
