My Green Card Situation Got Me Entangled With The Mafia

Chapter 4

Calum’s POV

By 5am, I am up. I go straight into my shower and get started on my day. The meeting with the other members of the organization starts by 9am and I have a few tasks to handle before the meeting. I walked into the closet after taking my shower and put on my custom-made suit. I leave the jacket on my bed and wear my shoulder holster. I check my phone to see if there is any matters to need to attend to. I call our Italian gun distributor to finalize the shipment and its arrival. I called Dan and told him to grab us breakfast on his way over and continue to look at our company’s report my assistant sent me this morning along with the merger and acquisition I am about to obtain.

Dan walked in thirty minutes later with a cup of piping hot coffee and a breakfast burrito for me and waffles and hash browns for himself. We talked about matter in the organization and what my plan was to find a wife. After breakfast, we headed out to my father’s mansion for the meeting that is going to change my life no matter how I think of it.

We arrive at my father’s mansion to see some of the members of the organization here already. The only people who would be attending this meeting like other meetings are my father’s top soldiers myself and Dan included. I head inside to go to wait for the meeting to start. Others starts to fill in the room and exactly 9’o clock, my father walks in with his most trusted confidant in the organization, Dan’s father and his consigliere.

We all get up as respect for my father as he walks to the head of the table. He sits down and tells us all we can sit too. Dan’s father, Micheal is seated on his right while I take my seat on his left with Dan sitting next to me and the other following. I notice we are all present with the exception of Allister. I clench my jaw and look straight at my father having a silent conversation with him that others had no idea about.

We discuss some business matter and new developments. I tell him I finalized the gun shipment earlier this morning and other bring their reports on their respective tasks to him. He clears his throat shutting every side conversation up. When all eyes falls on him, he starts.

“I know everyone here is wondering why I called for a meeting. I will put you all out of your miseries and tell you. I have decided to step down from being the boss of The Empire.” He says looking directly at me. The room erupts into chaos. He holds contact with me through everything. After the settles a bit, he continues.

“Calum will be taking over naturally since he is my underboss and the rightful heir.”

“Calum does not satisfy the conditions to be The boss the last time I checked” Adam mocks.

“I am well aware of this Adam, thank you. I know that Calum is unmarried. The only condition he gets to be The Boss is if he gets married.” My father said

“What happens if he fails to get married then?” Kevin asks

“If he fails to get a wife before the end of the month, Allister will be the next person on the line to take over.” My dad concludes.

“Allister, is not even here. Surely, you do not plan to make him take over from you if Calum does not meet the demand. We all know that Allister is incapable of handling anything that isn't women or drugs. The Empire will be run down in a matter of months” says Simon

“He is married and is also my nephew, that means he is the next option available if Calum fails to meet the requirements before this month ends. I am not asking for anyone’s opinion, I am telling you.“ “If no one has anything to say, then let us call it a day.” He says.

He gets up and everyone rise up to. He walks out of the room with Micheal and everyone turns their head to me. Not wanting to entertain them anymore, I head for the door and to my car.

“That went better than I expected.”Dan mutters.

“If you don’t want me to blow your brains out, you’ll shut up. I don’t get what my dad is doing. Allister was not even here. Is that who he wants to leave everything to if I don’t get married to someone.” I say pulling out a cigarette. I don’t smoke but right now, I will kill for the burn in my throat.

“ Let’s head to the warehouse. I hear we have a traitor and I am in the mood of having a tea party.” I say tucking the cigarette back into its pack.

On our way to the warehouse. I get a call from my secretary telling me that the acquisition I offered got signed and I needed to be here to complete the paper work. Around 12:30 Dan and I leave the company. We are on our way to meet with The Mexicans.

“I am in serious need of some coffee. I could barely sleep last night.’ Dan says

I scoffed and replied” Yea, now you know what it feels like to be in my shoes.”

“ You don’t even look bothered. I would think you will be pulling out files of the eligible sphincters in the family and trying to narrow it down.” Dan says

“I am not interested in getting married to any of those leeches. At this point, maybe I would propose to the first lady that catches my attention. Maybe that will please my father. I respond. Dan and I see a coffee shop so we decide to make a little detour because the last thing anyone wants is a whinny Dan because we didn’t stop for coffee.

We walk into the coffee shop. Dan go up to the cashier and places our order, I walk to one of the booths. As I am walking, I feel a pair of eyes on me. I take my seat and try to find whose eyes are on me. I am stunned when I see a gorgeous brown hair starring at me. She wore a beautiful dress and a cute blazer. I could not take my eyes off of hers even if I wanted to. I was captivated by her beauty, she realizes I caught her stars and looks away. I cannot stop the smirk that forms on my face when I notices she starts looking anywhere but in my direction, it amuses me.

She starts to walk out of the shop and I tell myself I would have Dan look into her. For some reason, I don’t think I will be getting her warm brown eyes out of my mind anytime soon. Dan gets our order and we start to leave the coffee shop when someone runs into me. I feel their coffee spill on my dress shirt. Before I can say anything, I see it is beautiful brown head from inside. Her hands trying to reach for my body but I react quickly by grabbing it and taking a step back. I notice she does not have a ring on her hand and say to myself “Hmm, she does not seem to have a ring on.”

With this, I walk away from her and to the car packed on the streets. We don’t even get inside the car before Dan starts asking questions about what just happened. “I need you to find out everything about that lady. From where she lives, to the color of her favorite stuffed animal and even the name of the hospital she was born in. She has an accent that sounds british, look into that too.” I say

“You cannot be serious. Calum, tell me you are not planning on doing what I think it is. When you said you were going to marry the next female your eyes caught, I thought you were being poetic. You know nothing about that lady. For all we know, she could be a spy from one of our enemies.” Dan argues.

“That’s why I want you to find out everything possible about her. I need to know who she is. Call up Reese and tell him I want these information my this time tomorrow.” I counter.

Dan starts the car and we head to the meeting with the Mexican’s. Through the drive, I cannot get the image of her pretty face apologizing. I think of all the things those doe eyes and pretty lips can do and feel myself starting to get a hard on. I take sips of my coffee and look at my phone in attempt to stop the blood from flowing down there. This does nothing to help and I know that if I don’t f**k this out of system, nothing will.

“Dan, call Emma and tell her I will be stopping by later tonight.” I say

“You know I am not your assistance,right?” Dan grumbles.

“I know that if you don’t shut you’re my mouth up right now, I will burst it with the back of my gun. You are my right hand man and a lieutenant and the last I recall, you answer to me, The Under boss.” I say as a matter of fact.

“You know I did not mean to disrespect you, I would never do that. I apologize. I will call Reese up during your meeting and also Emma.”

“You are not going to miss that meeting. Who goes to these things without their second in command. Text Reese before the meeting. We both know that Emma will be more than happy to have me between her sheets tonight whether we give her a heads up or not.” I say.

We get to the meeting point and negotiate the deal with the Mexicans and settle on an arrangement. The rest of the day is uneventful so I decide to finish some pending businesses at my penthouse. I know that by this time, everyone in the organization must have found out the agenda of the meeting my father called for this morning including Allister, who has yet to make any contact with me.
