Revenge And Desire of The Mafia
38. The New Mafia Boss

Rio de Jeneiro, Brazil

This morning, Eric was preparing to head to Sao Paulo to take care of his business. He said goodbye to Matilda to convey it to Eryn.

"I'm going, Bi. Please take care of Eryn. And remember, don't tell him anything about his past. You gotit?"

"Yes, Sir. I-i understand. Then, if Miss Eryn asks you where you are going, what should I answer?"

"Let's just say I'm taking care of business.  I don't know when I'll be back here. Because I also have to go back to Mexico."

"Good, Sir. Be careful on the way."

Eric immediately entered his car and sped away from the house. Matilda went back into the house and met Eryn.

"Auntie, where's Eric?"

"Eh? Miss is up? Then Auntie will prepare breakfast for Miss."

"Auntie, I asked Eric where?"

"Oh, Mr. Eric was gone, miss. He said there was business out of town. And it looks like it'll be a long time back here."

"Oh, so." Eryn sat at the dinner table.

"What does Miss want to eat?"

"Anything, Bi. Make it simple."

"Good, Miss. Waita minute!"

Eryn sat down and watched around the house.

"Why do I feel alien in this house? This ... Like it's not my house, Bi," Eryn told me.

"Maybe it's because Miss has amnesia, so Miss is a little confused."

"It's possible, Bi.  Suddenly I woke up in a hospital and I don't remember anything." Eryn's face turned soft.

"Miss, don't be sad. There's an aunt who's always with Miss."

"Bi, has Aunt been working with me for a long time?"

"Yes, Miss. It's been since Miss was a child."

"Then, where's my family, Bi? Eric said he was one of my family."

"Miss' father and sister are dead."

"Sister? So, I have a sister?"

Matilda didn't want to tell me more. He knew that Eric would be watching him.

"Miss should eat first. After that Miss is free to do what she wants as long as it doesn't break Mr. Eric's rules."

Eryn bowed sadly. "Why do I feel like I'm living in prison?"

Sao Paulo, Brazil

Eric comes to EB Company and is immediately greeted by Juan and his men. The man continued to develop his smile.

"Welcome, Son!" juan shook Eric's hand.

"Thank you, Uncle."

"Come, Son. We're going to elevate you to the new EB Company. At once you will also lead Amigo" said Juan.

Eric developed his wily smile.

"But, Uncle. I want to change the name of this company, Uncle."

"Yes, it's up to you. You've managed to snatch it out of your own best friend's hands."

"I'm going to change it to Evany Company. I think it suits me better. "

Juan asked some people to attend a closed meeting held by him. At the meeting, he will announce Eric as Amigo's new leader.

"From today, Eric Evans will be your new leader. And remember, you must obey all his commands just as you obey my orders. You understand?"

"Good, Sir."

The sound of applause filled the room. Eric also served one by one important people in the company. Afterwards, Eric headed to his study and occupied his great chair.

Enrique came in and saluted.

"Please change the nameplate, Enrique. Also dispose of all the used belongings of Eldric. I don't want to see that stuff here anymore! This is my place now! Ahaha!" Eric laughed with satisfaction.

"Good, Sir." Enrique asked a cleaning service to clean the room, including Black's private room.

After everything was empty, Eric reassembled the items he had bought earlier.

"Hmm, looks awesome!" Eric rubbed his chin.

"Sir, there's something I have to say" Enrique said.

"What is that, Enrique?"

"I didn't find Carlos' whereabouts, sir."

Eric surprised. "What did you say?! Then where's Eldric's confidant?"

"I don't know either, Sir. Ever since the incident happened to Black, he's been missing too."

"Damn! He must be hiding somewhere. He's the only one of Eldric's confidants. We have to find and get it. He should be on our side too. You search for him until you get it! Understood?"

"Good, Sir."

Mexico City

Eleanor and Erica are watching a television news story about Eric who is now the owner of EB Company and changed his name to Evany Company. Of course Eleanor was very proud of her son. Now the Evans family has unlimited power.

Elza who heard that was not necessarily happy with the euphoria felt by her mother and aunt.

"Why would you do something like this? Is being strong and famous a lot of fun despite having to wrest it from someone else's property?" thought Elza.

Elza also looked at Lolita who seemed frozen to see the success of her husband. Elza rolled her eyes lazily.

"The three of them are the same. They only put money above everything." Elza was lazy and chose to go inside her room. He did not want to join the fun his mother and aunt felt.

Meanwhile, in a Mexican suburb, Mr. Kim comes across a house his granddaughter allegedly lives in. A middle-aged man opened the door and greeted kindly.

"Good afternoon, how can I help you, sir?"

Without answering Mr. Kim and his men went into the house.

"Hey, who are you?" The old man wanted to get in the way, but a young man, Mr. Kim, held him back.

Mr. Kim approached a little boy who was eating in the dining room.

"My grandchildren... I finally found you..." Mr. Kim hugged the boy.

"Who is this grandfather?" ask the little boy.

"I'm your grandfather, son. I'm your grandpa!" exclaim Mr. Kim.

"Huh?! Grandpa?" The boy frowned confused.

"Look, this is Mr. Kim Hyun Jeong. He came here because he wanted to find his son and grandson who disappeared" explained Mr. Kim's assistant, Lee Hyun Woo.

The middle-aged couple looked at each other. Hyun Woo gave the couple a photo.

"If you may know, what are the names of Madam and Master?" tanyakanya.

"I'm Zack, and this is my wife, Zoey. We did find this kid when we got home from the market a few months ago. She said that her grandmother wanted to throw her into an orphanage near here. But he managed to escape. So, sir is the grandfather of this child?"

"If Mister is his grandfather then who wants to throw him away is your wife, Mister?" zoey Sahut.

"No! I don't have a wife" Mr. Kim argued.

"Mr Kim is right. He hasn't been married all this time."

"Who does she mean by grandma?"

"That was Eleanor's grandmother" said the boy who was none other than Noah.

"Grandfather, if you're really my grandfather, then where's Mommy?" asked Noah with teary eyes.

"Grandfather's looking for him, too, son." Mr. Kim summed up Noah's face.

"Thank you for taking care of my granddaughter. I promise I'll take good care of her."

"Does Grandpa know Eleanor's grandmother? If I did, I wouldn't go with Grandpa. I'd better stay here with Zack's grandfather and Zoey's grandmother."

"Eleanor? Who's she?" Mr. Kim glanced at Hyun Woo.

"My daddy's name is Eric Evans. She has a mother named Eleanor. And he doesn't like me. Even he often scolded Mommy," Noah told innocently.

Mr. Kim aligned his height with Noah.

"Listen, Son. Grandpa didn't know Eleanor's grandmother. Grandpa promised to find your Mommy and we'd get together. My grandfather lives in Seoul, South Korea. It's a long way from here. And there was no Eleanor's grandmother. So, you don't have to worry."

After long negotiations with Zack and Zoey, Mr. Kim finally managed to bring Noah home with him. Not to forget he gave some money to the middle-aged couple.

Mr. Kim asked his assistant to find out more details about his daughter's past.

After a celebration to celebrate Eric's appointment as the new Amigo leader, Juan returns to Rome in accordance with his promise of a vacation with Rose.

Juan didn't think things would turn out like this. He used to hate the Albana family so much that he finally destroyed the family. But his daughter finds Black who is the son of Edward Albana, her enemy in the past.

Juan rubbed his face rough. Whether his decision to help Eric in achieving his goal is right or not. Just because of a woman named Eryn, Eric was able to do everything he could to get her.

Juan arrives at his residence and is greeted by Brigitta's panicked face.

"What's up, Brigitta?" ask Juan.

"That's Master..."

"Tell me the obvious, what's up?"

"Miss Rose..."

"What's wrong with Rose?" Juan immediately ran away leaving Brigitta who never said his meaning.

Juan went into Rose's room. Blank. There was nobody there except silence.

"Rose? Where are you, son?"

Brigitta approached Juan. "Miss Rose is gone, sir."

Juan was sitting on the edge of Rose's bed. He saw a letter on the nightstand.

..."For Dad, for,...

...When you read this letter, it means I'm not in this house anymore. I'm sorry if I have to go this way. I know everything, Dad. That's why I can't be your daughter anymore....

...Sorry again, and thank you for all the love you've given me all this time....

...I hope you always do the right thing even if you're a mafia boss....

...Greetings,...

...Your daughter, Rosalinda Blanco."...

Juan remass a letter written by Rose.

"I lost my daughter..." Juan was sad.

One month later,

Eric does his business very well. He now rules Latin America. He had no nickname like the one before him that was pinned on Eldric. Eric is still mediocre even though he is also no less ruthless with Black when leading first.

"Welcome, Uncle. Thank you for taking the time to come to the company" Eric welcomed Juan.

Juan mangosteen felt a lot of different things with the company after Eric took over the leadership.

"You can too" said Juan.

"Hahahah, this is all thanks to Uncle's support as well."

"Yes, I've done a lot for you. But, what are you doing? You made me lose my daughter" Juan's circus.

"Don't talk like that, Uncle. She's not Uncle's real daughter anyway. What did Uncle think of him for?" Eric poured Juan a glass of wine.

"But I love her like my own daughter, Eric. And she's been my daughter for 25 years."

Eric laughing. "Isn't it better to have a son than a daughter? I could be a son to Uncle."

"You are!" Juan took a slow sip of the wine Eric gave him.

"Do I need to find any trace of Rose?"

"No need, Eric. Let him be free."

Eric flicked his shoulders and took a sip of his wine. His mind was glaring somewhere as if many things had crossed his mind.

Cali, Colombia

In a small house some distance from the city, a man with some injuries on his body now opened his eyes. He could not remember the last time he opened his eyes. His head feels dizzy.

The scars on his body had already started to dry up and heal. The man got out of bed and walked slowly out of the room.

The man saw a woman behind him. Hearing a step approaching, the woman turned around.

"You awake?" ask the woman by smiling.

"Rose?" The man scrunched his forehead.
