Stalked by the Mafia Boss

Chapter 29



A week later, Daniella was back to her usual, cheerful, bubbling and annoying self again.

“If you wanted steak, you would have just ordered it.” Korina huffed, watching Daniella as she extended her cutlery to her plate and took a piece of meat again.

“I swear, if you extend your hands to my plate again, you would lose those hands.” She glared at her.

“Stop threatening me like you are some mobster’s wife.” Daniella said rolling her eyes.

“Just eat your salad and leave my steak in peace.”

“Fine, fine.” Daniella raised her hands in mock surrender, “Is Anne still going to make it?” She took a spoon of her salad and her lips curled in distaste, “I shouldn’t have ordered this.” She grumbled.

“Nope.” Korina replied, “She has a lot of shoots going on.”

“You know, we should go see her at her work place, sometime.” Daniella suggested.

“So you could ogle at shirtless male models?” She eyed her cousin.

“There is absolutely nothing wrong in admiring nature, I am appreciating God’s work by ogling at them.” Daniella defended herself, “The Bible said…”

“What did the Bible say?” Korina asked looking at her.

“It says…”

“Oh shut it Dan, can you hear yourself?” She laughed, “You sound stupid as always.” She deadpanned.

“You are the stupid one. You burnt soup, who the hell can’t make a simple bowl of soup?”

“You and Aunt would never let this slide would you?”

“Never.” Daniella smirked shaking her head, it was her turn to laugh now.

“Shut up and eat your salad.”

They both concentrated on eating their food in silence. Korina enjoyed the peace but it wasn’t long before Daniella broke the silence.C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

“So did you receive any text from lover boy or mr stalker recently?”

“Well.” Korina sat up straight, “Cole has been texting, I try my best to reply.”

Daniella scoffed.

“How many texts did he leave Korina?” She asked.

“Twenty.”

“And how many times did you try this best of yours to reply?”

“Once.”

“Korina!” Daniella narrowed her eyes at her.

“What?”

“You should learn to open up more.”

“I am trying, ain’t I?” She said, “Former Korina ain’t never gonna reply those texts.” She explained, “Present Korina replied once, you see improvement.”

“Nahh… boo.” Daniella shook her head, “Nahh.”

They finished up at the restaurant and went straight to Korina’s apartment to spend the rest of the day.

“Mr stalker left a couple of good morning, good night, you look beautiful, you are so sexy texts.” She said, “And he sent something this morning which I haven’t opened.”

“Come on.” Daniella clapped her palms excitedly, “Go bring it.”

Korina walked over to the closet opening it up, she brought out a box wrapped in black with a velvet colored ribon on it, she took the box back to where Daniella was and placed it on the table.

“Oh Goody, looks rich.” Daniella squealed, “Like damn if it ain’t gonna be some expensive shit, that fuckers middle name is rich.”

“As in R-I-C-C -C-H.” She emphasized spelling the word out, “Rich with a triple c.”

“So let’s open this up.” Korina said, she lifted the box lid with the ribbon on top and carefully put it aside.

Daniella hurriedly put her hand in it and brought out a transparent rectangular glass case from within the box. Through the glass, you could see a red smallish pillow like thingy for jewelry and atop it was a golden bracelet, the sun rays streaming through the windows reflecting on it.

“Wow.” They both exclaimed.

Korina took the box from her best friend and opened it carefully. She brought out the bracelet and read the letters stringed together.

K-O-R-I-N-A

He had a bracelet made in my name, she thought, a small smile forming on her lips which vanished quickly.

She looked at the bracelet, mouthing the letters. It seemed so elegant, she was certain it was pure gold.

Daniella snatched the bracelet from her cousin, stood up and hurriedly walked towards the window.

“Be careful with it.” Korina warned.

“So you care about his gifts now, huh?” Daniella smirked at her, she turned her attention back to the bracelet.

“Damn.” She said raising it up, her eyes fixated on it.

Korina drew closer to her watching her closely, she knew Daniella could be careless.

“This shit is real, no way.” Daniella said, she put the bracelet in her mouth scraping it with her teeth.

“What the hell are you doing?” Korina asked alarmed, she stretched out her hands trying to get it back from Daniella.

“Shh.” Daniella silenced her, she removed the bracelet from her mouth and bent down towards the floor scraping it on the tile.

“What the heck?” Korina shrieked but couldn’t say anything else as her cousin started screaming.

“It didn’t scratch.” She screamed at her, “It’s Gold baby.”

Korina was staring daggers at Daniella as she went through her phone.

“I believe I have the right to privacy Dan.”

“Not in this case hun.” Daniella said.

“Uggh, give me back my phone this instance.” She eyed her.

“You didn’t tell me he was the kinky daddy type.” Her cousin winked and Korina rolled her eyes.

“Girl he wanna spank that ass for you going out on a date with Cole.”

“Can you imagine?” Korina asked, “He’s really unbelievable.”

“I’d let him if I were you.”

“You are unbelievable Dan.”

“You love me so.”

Korina rolled her eyes at her for the umpteenth time. She moved to her window and looked out, staring at people as they moved about, it made her long for the outside world.

“Are you gonna use the bracelet?” Daniella asked gaining Korina’s attention, she watched her pull her gaze away from the window.

“Nope.” She shook her head.

“But why not?” Daniella stared at her wondering how she could refuse gold.

“Hmm, let’s see…” Korina tapped her chin, “Maybe cause the sender is a psycho, killer and what not and above all, I don’t know him.”

“Good point, right.” Daniella agreed with her and handed her the phone, “How did your last date with Cole go anyway?”

“It was going well.” She said, “We went to the movies, ate a lot of snacks, got done, went for a walk and I ended up crying home cause I had to talk about my mum. Hence, the moody me is back and I am stuck in here now.”

Daniella was about to say something but was cut short by the sound of a harsh banging on the door.

“Who is it?” They both yelled.

“It’s me.” The voice answered.

“You who?” Korina asked.

“It’s I, Jeffery.”

“Jeffery!” They both screamed and immediately put their hands on each other’s mouths silencing themselves.

Both girls stared in horror, jeffery’s ghost?
