C4 Chapter 4

Ace POV

"Are you sure when I give it to you that you won't either kill me or make me lose my job?" He asked.

"You can say something like that. Now give me what I am asking for," I said.

"Give me some minutes so that I can go and get it from the cashier," he said, making me nod.

"Damn, that was something else. He really was confident standing against you," Paul said

"I know right? Maybe he doesn't know that Ace is the owner of this club," Bob said.

"Yeah. I guess you are right. But who is he talking about? Who threatened them?" Paul asked.

"I don't know, maybe we can ask him when he comes back," Bob said.

Sometimes these two talk and even forget that I am with them. That thought made me shake my head.

After waiting for the kid for more than fifteen minutes, he came back carrying three receipt books.

"Here they are, boss," he said.

I signalled him to leave.

I started going through the receipts so that I can know whether I am wrong or not.

After going through the receipts for two good hours, I found what I wanted.

"I can't believe that someone is so naive to steal from us under our noses," Bob said

"Yeah. Me too but lucky to me that I had missed tutoring people," Paul said with an evil grin on his face making me shake my head. He is really a lunatic.

"Can we go and pay him a visit in the office?" Bob asked me and I nodded my head.

"Great, let us go," Paul said and started walking towards the office.

After nearing the office, we heard some shouts and warnings. What the hell is going on there? I asked myself and looking at the two men standing beside me, it seemed that they were also asking the same question which I am.

I opened the door slightly to prevent attention from the people in the room. After the door was ajar, I was still surprised as to why no one had heard me opening the door.

We saw a lady in a waitress outfit with her back facing us. I am sure that sick bastard is in front of her. It does not seem as if they were f**king.

"Oops. Sorry, your loss," the woman said and it seemed to anger him because we saw the manager run towards her trying to lunge at her but she punched him sending him flying back to his desk. He groaned in pain.

"You bitch, When I get my hands on you, you are going to regret it," he said as he spat at her.

They had not noticed that they had company. Whoever this woman is, is so feisty and I like that.

"No. You are the one who is going to regret slapping me. Didn't your mother teach you never to lay a hand on a woman?" She asked him.

I knew that it was angering him and that made us chuckle. It seems that she was thinking about something because she didn't see the man standing up and running towards her. He punched the lady on the stomach causing her to stumble backwards, nonetheless, she did not fall down. I guess she is strong then.

"You bastard!" She snarred before punching him repeatedly.

"Never

ever

Beat

a woman

you may never know who she is or where she comes from," she told him as she punched him.

She kept punching him and the manager had already lost consciousness. I signed Paul and Bob to get her off the man. As much as I wanted to see him dead, he cannot die till I find answers as to why he was stealing from me of all the people. Was he that stupid that he thought that I would never find out?

"Let go of me, bastard. I want to kill him," the waitress shouted.

"Stop. He will be killed nonetheless but not by you," I said, making her stay still because of my authoritative voice. She did not utter a word and atbthat time I thought that she had gone dumb. Yaah, I know people fear me but after seeing how she handled my manager, I was sure that at least she won't be afraid of me then. She escaped from Paul's grip and turned towards my direction. I am sure she was so curious to know who it was.

I was stunned at her beauty. The curves came out still in those short skirts and the breasts were full. She had black hair and some purple strands and sky blue eyes. Looking at her eyes made me forget everything about who or what surrounded me. I found myself wanting her. Not only holding her but also kissing her and her being in my bed, under me.

What are you thinking of Ace? Stop being a manwhore and concentrate on the problem before us. My subconscious said and I averted my eyes from her.

Something flicked in her eyes but I was unable to see what it was because she was really good and hiding her emotions and expression. But one thing I know is that she knew who I was.

"I guess then you know me by your face expression?" I said.

"What is the great, almighty, Ace Vincenzo doing here?" She asked, making all of us stand still.

Many people who know me by my name, know that I am a CEO but what they don't know is that I use the company to hide my illegal business.

"So you know my full names? Not many know me. I keep my identity hidden. I am also sure that you just know me as the youngest, successful CEO," I said.

"No sherlock. When I say great and the almighty is because the guy standing in front of me and talking to me is The italian mafia leader, Ace Vincenzo,"she said with a grin and I froze.
