The Ex-Mafia With Single Mother
Chapter 23

The house is usually quiet so it feels strange because of the sound of screaming children in the back garden where Angela and her mother are playing on the side of the pool. The two of them seemed to be enjoying their time, while Gail stood in front of the window and looked at the two of them.

He always lived alone. Do not ask where his parents are, he does not have parents because he is a vagabond who was picked up by his former boss. Gail grew up on the streets, she was taken care of by an old grandmother but when the old grandmother died, she lived a kara on the streets.

She did not know who her parents were, she was found in a garbage can by the old grandmother. Luckily the old granny was willing to babysit him, otherwise she might have already become a stray dog food and ended up being their stinking excrement.

During his life on the streets, there were already many crimes he had committed. He does not hesitate to steal when hungry, hit someone to take his money. He's involved with a lot of criminals who do drug deals, all of which he does to fill his hungry stomach. Living on the streets so hard, he had even been an expert on escaping from police pursuit. If he was not good at earning money then he would starve and die on the road without anyone caring.

Because of his potential, he is invited to join an organization by his old boss who coincidentally meets him. He was even re-formed into a killing machine that knew no mercy and love. He still remembered his first task was to kill an official. His boss thinks Gail is incapable but who would have guessed, Gail returns while carrying the head of her victim. Hard life forms him into a cruel figure without feeling and from there, he becomes a confidant of the mafia.

I don't know how many people he killed, he doesn't remember. Any enemy that his boss wanted would definitely end up in his hands. Their heads he always carried because he became a confidant of the boss who was difficult to replace but the life he lived bored him. The money was already there, he wanted to be an ordinary young man. Gail wants to resign, but her boss doesn't accept that no one is as good as her on a mission.

Therefore, he had to defeat twenty-five trained people at once in the hope that he would lose so that he would not resign but what happened, he can get through all that and can be like this. He has no regrets about leaving the organization because all his life he has been struggling in the world of crime and now, he is getting to know a love that he has not known.

Gail's gaze could not be separated from Cristal, the young widow completely overturning her frozen heart. Whether Cristal could accept himself or not who had been struggling for a long time in the black world, he had no idea. He's not Coe, he's just a personal assistant. No matter what kind of reaction Cristal had when he found out who he was, he was really curious.

His feet began to step, he wanted to approach the mother and child who looked cheerful. Gail shook her jaw, a smile, that was all she needed so Angela wouldn't be afraid of him. If she wants Cristal, then most likely Angela will be a princess.

Gail stepped closer, her lips pulled to the right with great difficulty. Smile, she convinces herself to smile but what happened, the horrible smile she showed and of course Angela was scared so that the girl hid behind her mother.

"Mommy, fear," he said.

"Damn!" gail's curse sounded slow.

"It's okay, honey. Uncle is trying to smile at Angela."

"really?" Angela came out of hiding.

"Yes, don't be afraid. Okay?"

Angela nodded, Gail shook her jaw again. Damnit. Why can't she smile? It was natural, since long ago he had never smiled due to the harshness of the life he had to live.

"What are you doing here?" gail asked the stale base while sitting on Cristal's side, while Angela was playing chasing butterflies.

"You can see it. Sorry for making a scene in your house."

"No problem, I live alone so there's no need to hesitate."

Gail did not reply, a cigarette was removed and lit. It was smoked and the smoke was exhaled. The question he dislikes the most because he has no parents.

"Come on," said Gail as she exhaled her cigarette smoke.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to? I'm sorry if my question offends" Cristal said, not feeling well.

"It's okay, how old are you?" Gail glanced at him for a moment and returned to smoking her cigarette.

"I am twenty-seven years old. How's yours?" cristal asked inquisitively.

"Thirty-three, thirty-four, I don't know" he said.

"What do you mean?" Cristal seemed to not understand.

"You want to know why?" Gail glanced at him, it seemed like it was time to tell Cristal who he was so that the woman could make up her mind whether she wanted to stay or she would leave together with her daughter.

"Of course, it's unfair because you already know all about me and I don't know anything about you" Cristal said.

"As far as you know, I'm not Ceo owner of a big company" Gail said. Cigarettes are back in the smoke, the smoke is exhaled again.

"What do you mean say that?" does Gail think she's a double-eyed woman who's willing to follow her for money? He knew there would be no such possibility, if there was even a small chance it would happen. Nor is he living in a fairy tale country that will meet a handsome and rich prince. Life is difficult and then meet a rich ceo who falls in love with him, ah. it only exists in the world of illusion.

"I just don't want you to be disappointed" Gail said.

"Why am I disappointed, I'm not a rich woman either. After all, wealth doesn't make anyone happy so tell me who you really are" Cristal grew curious, and he had to know who the young man who had helped him was.

"I'm just a personal assistant and I'm a former mobster. Killing is my profession first, I am a person who knows no mercy and will kill anyone without hesitation. Both of my hands were covered in blood, no matter how many lives were lost in my hands," Gail paused her words for a moment, Cristal's face turned pale after hearing Gail's words.

"I was found in a garbage can, I lived on the streets and I've been through a lot of hard lives. Forbidden medicines, I have sensed all kinds and almost all the weapons I have used to kill my enemies. I'm not a meek man, I'm a cold-blooded man who's been set up to become a killing machine. Even if I have left that path, but I will still kill the person who dares to challenge me without hesitation!" the cigarette was turned off, Gail turned to look towards Cristal. The woman's body froze, her face even still pale.

"Now you know who I am so you can decide if you still want to stay with me or if you want to go with your daughter. I'm not pushy, if you choose to leave then I'll find you both a safe place!" said it.

Cristal did not reply, he was still shocked by Gail's past. He even thought to himself, is he currently stuck with a man who is not much different from Lucius? Gail was still waiting, a cigarette came back on. He would give time for Cristal to think that the woman could take the right decision for herself.
