Chapter 72 Twins secret unveiled part 4
"I'm glad to hear that. I'am getting old and I want to retire soon and spend the remaining days of my life with my family. Can you promise that Lance?" He asked with a hopeful heart.
"Of course! I will promise that Anton. I also want to be with my family without the shadow of being a Mafia King. We will leave all this and will start a new life with Nathalie and the kids." I promise him.
I also want to retire. This work is too brutal and cruel for my family. I will never let them experience all that I've encountered!
"Thank you!" He pats my shoulder gently and I nod in agreement.
"It's boring! Why? I like to become a Mafia King too Daddy!" Kenneth shouted.
Just wondering if he truly meant what he said. A true-blooded Mafia is not afraid and brave. And sad to say, I can see the fire and determination in Kenneth's eyes.
"Shut up your mouth Kenneth! You don't know how dangerous it is. Death is always at your back. Hiding and blending with your shadow. You can never have peace of mind. You will become paranoid and will not trust the people around you because you only see them as your enemy. Ready to kill you anytime!" Anton shouted in frustration.
I think that he is still suffering from his loss. To experience the same heartache twice is no joke at all.
The pain and suffering repeated two times break your already broken heart. And there's nothing left except the unbearable pain that you need to deal with for the rest of your life.
I hope that he can surpass this another challenge of his life.
Nathalie still needs her and the twins too!
"But can I at least join now before it will go? I like to experience being in the Mafia World! I want to hold guns and fight too. I want to be strong and protect all of you!" Kenneth said with determination in his eyes.
That's a good trait but I'm still afraid of the outcome. I don't know why he likes to join this chaotic world of Mafias!
"Okay but just for now. You can't join the battle or do whatever you like. You must follow my order." I reminded him.
"Sure! Don't worry Daddy. I don't like to fight but wanted to create high-powered weapons to help you. It will surely come in handy soon. For the future!" He said.
And I must say that he is a real genius in making those weapons! He is good at everything. I can't see any weakness in him. He is strong and skilled in terms of inventions.
"I'am worried and afraid for you to be reckless. Just be careful baby, we still don't know who is the real enemy. They are still hiding somewhere. We must not let our guard down." I said worriedly.
"Don't worry Daddy. I will not go out but I want to help with my latest inventions. And that is one of our topics for this meeting. Shall we proceed?" Kenneth asks like a big boss!
But before we can answer. We heard a knock.
"Dad, Lance. I bring snacks and drinks!" Nathalie speaks outside the door.
"Oh, you need to hide Kenneth!" I said and look for a perfect spot for him to hide.
But I didn't find one!
"He can hide under the sofa Lance," Anton suggested.
Kenneth hides right away and I open the door.
"What took you so long to open the door? It's heavy!" She said irritated.
I get the tray of snacks from her and she finally smiles.
"Much better. Thank you, Lance!" She said smiling.
"Thank you for the snacks too," I answered while putting the snacks at the table.
"Oh, Did you see Kenneth? Andrew is looking for him as it's time to take a bath!" She asked.
"Ah, we didn't see him. We are busy discussing something here. Maybe he is playing outside or is around the corner of the house." I answered seriously. Afraid of getting caught.
Anton didn't speak at all and is busy reading some papers!
"Okay, I better go and don't disturb the two of you. Dad, you should eat the snacks and drinks. The juice is good for your body." She said before leaving.
"Yeah." This is the only reply from Anton.
I can see that he is not good at telling a lie. That's why he doesn't want to speak.
Kenneth comes out from hiding.
"So, shall we proceed to our meeting?" He asked for the second time.
I chuckled while looking at his serious facial expression.
"Yes young man, the table is yours!" I answered.
And he takes his tablet from his amazing backpack.
Kenneth the explorer is ready...
Hopefully, Dora will not appear!
