Lured Into The Mafia's Den

Draymond Martinez, a mysterious New York tycoon, rarely appears in public due to his obsessive-compulsive disorder. Draymond is the CEO of Martinez Corporation and the legendary mafia don of the ‘Jade Dragon Triad.’ Living in seclusion, he often grapples with inner turmoil when his OCD takes control. His mother’s tragic and untimely passing drove him to find justice for her. Suddenly, a deadly ambush pushed him to the edge of death. Just when all hope seemed lost, fate intervened, and Zarina Celesti Vasquez, a renowned fashion designer, came as his savior. *** “Marry me, Zarina,” he begged, desperation in his eyes. He instantly regretted his boldness, muttering, “I think I’m becoming straightforward.” Zarina blinked rapidly, her eyes widening, and she stood with her hands on her hips. “No way. I don’t want to marry a man who sees marriage as just another business venture.” She turned her back to him and flipped her long black hair, making her rejection crystal clear. Draymond cleared his throat, attempting to persuade her. “I need a wife,” he stated seriously. Zarina burst into laughter, finding the situation absurd. “Mr. Martinez, I think you need a psychologist to check your brain because it seems you’re struggling to understand my simple condition.” Feeling insulted, Draymond clenched his teeth. “I’ll pay you a substantial amount for this business marriage, and I’ll be a great husband who will warm your bed every night!”

CHAPTER 45: HEARTBURN

After Draymond hung up, the only sound Keiffer heard was the "toot toot toot" of the disconnected call. Setting his fork and knife aside, he lifted the phone from his shoulder and continued to enjoy his delicious steak for lunch.

"Seriously? He just called me to bring him food? Am I his personal waiter now? Aigoo! Well, if that's the case, at least I'm the most handsome waiter he'll ever have," Keiffer joked to himself, relishing every bite of his meal.

Burp! A loud burp escaped Keiffer's mouth after he finished eating. He got up from his chair and went to the food shelf to order some food for Draymond.

The clinking of spoons and forks touching plates and the buzzing sound of people ordering food echoed in the cafeteria.
