Chapter 84
"Dad…" Aurora ran into Ethan's Arms smiling ear to ear. "I missed you so much, dad."
Ethan King hugged his daughter with closed eyes. She was the only one who mattered to him. His
Angel. His daughter.
"How are you doing my love?" He asked, kissing her on the head.
Aurora looked at her father, her old man. "I am doing perfectly fine, dad but you look stressed. What
happened to you? Why the dark circles under your eyes dad?" She asked, raising her chin in the air.
Ethan chuckled, "my love, you are my sunshine."
"Come in now, we can't stand the whole day in the driveway," Ethan checked the house. Once they
settled inside, she asked the question she was dying to ask. "Dad, have you tried to find out about
Gabriel? I am worried about him."
Ethan's body hardened, he fisted his hand, but kept his expression normal he spoke, "Aurora, we are
meeting after a month and instead of spending time with the old man you are interested in his
whereabouts, you hurt me too much."
"It's not like that dad. It's just…" she stopped and sighed deeply, "it's just I am worried about him. Tell
me please, have you found out something about him?"
"My men are trying but till now nothing came out."
Aurora nodded. "Yeah, he didn't like using technology much…" she exhaled deeply, touching her
fingers.
"How is work going on? And what about Liam? Is he treating you fine?"
Aurora smiled, hearing Liam's name. "Yes. He is treating me fine.
He is not as bad as initially thought. He needed to be taught a few things but I consider him as my
friend now and I will teach me everything about friendship."
Ethan scowled. "Good friend?"
"Yes, chill out dad. Anyway, we met after so long. Let's go for lunch, what say?" She asked excitedly
like a child. Ethan accepted her demand and they both went to spend the father-daughter day together.
Ethan tried hard to ask Aurora about Liam but she didn't give him any satisfactory answers. But from
her talks, he sensed one thing and that Aurora has started liking Liam and that gave him hope for his
daughter's happiness.
Liam's charm might not be showing yet but it was working on her, slowly.
It was evening, Ethan needed to go back to his city, he couldn't leave his territory for long especially
when he was at war with Mexicans. But before going back he needed to meet Ryan Knight to tell him
what he could lose if things didn't go the way he wanted.
Things would turn bloody! And only his daughter's happiness could stop those bloody events.
"Please try to find him, dad." Aurora once again reminded him. Ethan smiled. "I will but take care of
yourself, love."
Once bidding goodbye to his daughter, Ethan went to meet his friend, Ryan at his home.
"I was expecting you," Ryan said, taking a long puff of his cigar.
Ethan nodded. "Your son has a temperamental problem, Ryan. He talks too much for my taste…"
Ryan raised a finger. "I respect our friendship, that's why we are here talking to each other like civilised Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
men but as I have told you once before, Whatever deal we had as friends it's between us. You can
paint the streets red with blood for your daughter so can I for my son," he said firmly.
Ethan sharpened his eyes. "Are you threatening me, or friend?"
Ryan's lip tugged upward. "No, I am stating the facts, Ethan. Liam is an Alpha male, he doesn't like
when someone speaks to him in a wrong. He kills without mercy. Cruelty runs in his veins and that man
is trying to charm your daughter into marrying him. If that's not a show of respect then I don't know
what is. Don't try to poke the monster he is trying to control because if he arises there will be chaos
everywhere."
Ethan listened to him every word with fisted hands. Ryan sighed, stood up from his chair and touched
his back. "I know you are worried for Aurora but she is here, in Vancouver under Liam's protection. My
son knows how to protect what belongs to him and he laid his claim on your daughter. He will keep her
safe and happy. Trust me."
Ethan sighed. " I am trying, I killed the man she loved. I am ready to bear her hatred if it keeps her safe
and happy. My life is useless if my daughter is not happy…"
Ryan understood his pain. "Don't pressure Liam, Ethan. Because I won't be able to control him
anymore. Let him do what he is doing."
Meanwhile, Liam was in the air, going to Dallas to meet Alessio, the Italian mafia head. A flight
attendant whose name he didn't remember handed him a glass of whiskey. "Do you need anything
else, sir?" She asked seductively.
Ever so slowly Liam raised his eyes from the amber liquid and pinned them on the whore. She was
blonde just like Aurora. He raised his head a little and watched her. He could have her, use her the way
he wanted like he did many times but something stopped him.
A blue-eyed girl and her fucking smile flashed in his memory. Aurora's face ran through his vision. "No!"
He answered the attendant in such a rude voice that she ran from there, apologising.
Liam gulped the whole liquid in one go, it burned through his throat making him curse harshly. The list
of his problems was growing more and more. Every day a new attachment was added to the list.
To start with, his goal was to rule over the Canadian Mafia for that he had to have a majority in the
league of Mafia families, which seemed impossible till he married Aurora. Moreover, the girl was
making him dance on her fingertips with her tantrums and In addition to that, he had this fucked up
masked man who was making his life difficult by attacking his consignments and deals. Last but not the
least, his so-called ally refused to support him in catching his enemy.
So yeah, the life of Liam knight at the moment is pretty fucked up.
