Chapter Three. "Good morning ma" Anthony greets Mirabel, and stylishly looks around the environment. "Greetings dear, how may I help you?" She looked at him and felt the aura of a silent dangerous and powerful man standing before her. "I am Anthony Alloy, Celestine’s boyfriend and future husband" He introduced. His words caused laughter to Mirabel who quickly opened the gate for him and his men. Anthony was smart enough to come as early as 5:30 am, to throw some knocks on the family gate, and was attended to by Mirabel; Celestin’s mother. While he was ushered in by her, he observed her countenance and physical appearance. It appeared to be as if someone dashed her countless numbers of blows whose signs could be seen in the bumps and fresh blood injuries on her face and shoulders. Also, how she walks, was detected and understood by Anthony and his cohorts. While in the sitting room, Celestine’s siblings came out and exchanged unhappy glances with him while Mirabel went in to inform and bring her sick husband, Gregory. He looked around the walls and saw different family and individual pictures. He knew he was in the home of his imminent in-laws and was happy to come although, it was his first time and didn't find it difficult to trace because he knew for some time now, the exact location of her home. Another thing that struck his attention, was this aura of waiting. They seem to be aware of his coming and have been waiting for him since. "Maybe I came late" He asked and teased himself. Gregory was helped into the sitting room by his wife, who held him by his shoulder and waist. The moment he sat down, there was confusion in the air. "What?" "What?" Gregory and Anthony were tensed. "You?" Anthony asked in shocked "You, oh! You?" Gregory asked in wonder. "What are you doing in my house?" The frightened Gregory asked in the highest form of his silent voice since he had no strength to increase his voice. "Just be calm, please. I mean. I'm here for good" Anthony informed after seeing his condition and understanding the identity of the man who would be his father-in-law. "You are here to kill me and my family? Please take my life instead and leave them" Gregory asked and pleaded. The rest member of the family watched in shock as their drama proved difficult to understand. At this time, Anthony expects Celestine to come out of the room and at least hug him before her parents so that the ongoing drama could come to an end, but there was no sign of her. "He said he is Celestine’s man, and he is here because of her" Mirabel informed. At this moment, the whole family was relaxed about the drama, and the spirit of silence spoke in the atmosphere. It happened to be that the both of them knew themselves very well. Anthony quickly recognized Gregory as the skilled fighter who works for his enemy, and his father's greatest enemy and rival in the dark world. Thus; Gregory is also an enemy. Gregory on his part, acknowledges knowing Anthony. He is the 'Don' of the fifteenth sea village of the mafia village, a deadly beast and one of the youngest billionaires in Mexico and the Americas. "Wow, you're a don in the mafia “the twenty years old Remy who was amazed, ran to hug him and in the process, shed tears and spoke "Please go and rescue my sister". By the time they were finally calmed and might have understood their differences, Anthony was about to be grieved that his lover was not yet present. He hates expensive jokes and for this reason, he doesn't like to reveal an original part of himself to people just as he did to Celestina. Could it be that she is still sleeping up till this time? He thought in his mind and though, never took Remy's words for a bit serious. Mirabel who noticed a strange thought in him, said "She's been taken" "I don't get you, mam. She's been taken. How?" Anthony asked "She was forcefully taken last night by the Don and the bruises you see on our body, are blows given to us by him and his ruthless gang" She answered while crying unintentionally. The wax of nasal fluid drained her upper lips and prevented her from speaking fluently because it was already gums in her mouth. Anthony smiled and at the same time, got angry. "The Don has taken her, right? No issues. Who would take me to his place? I don't even know the bastard" He spoke. "For what?" Gregory asked "For the transfer. I want to transfer the said money to him or I give him a check" He responded. "That wouldn't be possible anymore. Since you are the one coming to pay, the Don won't honor that. He would prefer to keep her by his side as a s*x slave for three years instead" Gregory informed. The thought of Celestina becoming a s*x slave pissed him off and made Anthony grow more angry. "Do you still work for Don spirit?" Anthony asked. "Yes, I do, and he is currently in charge of my daughter" Gregory answered. "You are right, he won't let me in as long as I fall in the picture. Therefore, I have a plan" He admitted. "Please don't devise a plan that will end the life of any member of my family" Gregory warned, as he knew the ways of the mafia’s and their lords. He perceived the battle was now in the hands of two mafia sea villagers. Anthony is the fifteenth while Don Spirit is the second so, Spirit is higher in rank, influence, and wealth and more experienced in dirty and bloody acts than Anthony who is popularly called 'Don Ant' and is just a young man of twenty-eight years old. "You must not interrupt my plans, Mr. Gregory. You know what I'm saying, and I wouldn't want to say much. You and your family must follow me right away, and abandon every property here. Today, I will purchase a mansion loaded with property for you, take you to the best hospital in the country for your treatment, deposit the sum of fifty million dollars in your account, and surround your family with police and the military because I know what Don Spirit is capable of doing. Meanwhile, I will be needing information from you" Anthony gallantly speaks.
