The Ex-Mafia With Single Mother
Chapter 43's

Cristal felt unwell as she woke up from her sleep. His head ached, his nose was blocked and he also felt so cold that his body was shivering. It was because she cried for quite a while plus she cried on the side of the pool where the weather was indeed cold.

A thick blanket covered the body, a compress was on the forehead. Angela sat by his side and looked worried, while Gail was in the kitchen making porridge and breakfast. Cristal is not feeling well, he can only make it difficult for Gail.

He should have lightened Gail's burden but today he could only make it harder for her let alone having Gail to go to work. Angela already wears her school uniform, she really doesn't want to go but her mother forbids.

"What about Mommy?" angela asked, holding her mother's hand.

"Mommy's just not feeling well, honey."

"If so Angela does not go to school alone, Angela wants to accompany Mommy," said Angela.

"Don't, Mommy's fine. After resting, Mommy will be cured soon."

"But, Mom?"

"It's okay, okay?" Cristal rubbed his daughter's face to make sure she was okay.

At that time, Gail went inside with a bowl of porridge and also medicine that could be consumed by Cristal. Gail approached them and put down the porridge she had brought onto the table.

"What about you?" ask Gail.

"As you can see," Cristal replied weakly.

"I can't take care of you because I have to prepare some meetings that can't be delayed."

"It's okay, Gail. I'm the one who should be apologizing because I can only make things difficult for you. I'm fine alone at home but I'm asking you to pick up Angela later in the day. Can you?"

"Sure, I'll take her to the office later."

"Isn't it a problem? Is your boss gonna let you?"

"I'll ask her for permission later."

"But, Uncle. Angela wants to accompany Mommy at home" said Angela.

Gail goes awry, she can't ask for a sudden leave of absence even though she's worried about leaving Cristal alone at home. She also can't let Angela accompany her mother because a three-year-old can do anything and she doesn't yet know what she's doing dangerously or not.

Gail had no choice but to bring Angela to the office later, she had already prepared food for Cristal, hopefully after resting Cristal's condition improved so that she could take care of herself.

"I've made porridge for you, finish the porridge and take the medicine" said Gail.

"I'm so sorry," Cristal tried to sit on the bed, Gail helped her as well as Angela.

"Angela accompany ya, Mom," Angela still trying to persuade.

"No, Honey. Mommy will rest for a while, if Mommy's condition has improved, then Mommy will pick you up later."

"really?"

"Yes, so no need to worry."

Angela nodded and smiled, Gail picked up the bowl of porridge and scooped up the contents. Problem solved, he just needs to bring Angela because it will be very dangerous girl at home. Girls are so much curious, do not let Angela into the kitchen and do experiments without being known let alone the state of Cristal who is not healthy. Don't let his house blow up otherwise he and Cristal won't get married.

During Cristal's feeding, Gail asks Angela for the breakfast she has provided. Because he always lived alone so he was used to making breakfast for himself. It's not difficult, he's used to it. After feeding Cristal and giving her medicine, Gail helps Cristal change her sweat-soaked clothes.

"Ck, how many times have you said something like that?"

"I just feel bad for you, Gail. I'm really making things difficult for you with me."

"That's it, assume I'm training!" Gail helped him lie down after he finished replacing Cristal's clothes.

"Rest, don't think much" Gail said, giving a kiss on her forehead.

"Thank you," Cristal also gave a kiss on her cheek, "But there's one thing I've forgotten. I was supposed to go to the hospital today to retrieve my mother-in-law's body but it's not possible. Will you call the hospital and say that I'll take my mother-in-law's body in a few days?" her door. Indeed today he had to bury the body of his mother-in-law but he was forced to postpone it.

"I'll call the hospital later but where are you going to bury your mother-in-law's body? I'll prepare it."

"Besides eating her son, it's possible that my mother-in-law could meet her son so that he could kick his son to hell!" Cristal. After knowing what her husband did, she really hated him.

"Send me!" The blanket pulled over Cristal's body, before exiting the room to carry a dirty plate, Gail gave a kiss on Cristal's forehead.

Cristal smiled, his gaze could not be separated from Gail. This was the first time she was grateful if her husband had died because otherwise she would have been used as a tool by Alvin to pay off debts and she could not be with Gail.

Angela had finished her breakfast, before leaving they went into the room to leave. Cristal tried to sit on the bed, she used to rely on her mother-in-law but now she has to rely on Gail.

"Mommy has to rest to heal quickly" said Angela while kissing her mother's cheek.

"Of course, honey. Don't be naughty and make things difficult for Uncle."

"Of course, Angela's a good boy."

"Please take good care of Angela" Cristal said.

"I told you, you don't have to worry."

Cristal smiled, Angela kissed him again and left, Gail also asked Cristal not to do anything, drinking water even he had provided so that Cristal did not move too much. Gail was like a husband, though she didn't talk much but everything Cristal needed was on the table.

Gail escorts Angela first and after that, she goes to pick up her boss. Gail was really busy but not only was she busy, Lucius also looked busy as he was going somewhere in a hurry.

As Lucius planned, he wanted to meet Leona Pierce to talk to him. After his men lurk, Lucius follows Leona who is enjoying her time at a cafe. Leona was alone but some of her men looked on guard. That's natural for a mafia princess.

Leona was enjoying her meal as Lucius sat before her. Leona's facial expression seemed unhappy to see the foreign man sitting opposite her all of a sudden. Lucius was greeted with two firearms on the shoulder, the weapon from Leona's men.

"Who are you and why are you sitting here?" leona asked in an unhappy tone.

"I want to talk to you and make you an offer, Leona Pierce," Lucius replied with a smile.

"I'm not interested!" reject Leona.

"Come on, I know you and your father just met Gail Bernard a few days ago" Lucius said.

"Where do you know?" Leona was getting unhappy with the man.

"Of course I know, I even know a lot of things!"

"Don't talk stale. Now tell me, what do you want?!" Leona looked at the man sharply, she felt that the man had bad intentions but she would still hear him let alone Gail, the idol.

Lucius smiled, he could really use Leona Gilbert and it was the woman who would lead him to victory and the woman who would help him kill Gail Bernard later.
