chapter 3

Ace POV

I have been trying to figure out where the Russian leader is hiding, but I have been unsuccessful so far. All of his men who we have captured so far are useless. It is either they don't know where he is or give us a location when we go there we find the place empty I know that I cannot give up right now. This will be letting my family and mafia down. As the don, I am supposed to deal with all the threats to the la familia.

"Yo bro" Bob, my best friend called out, making me come back to my senses.

"What do you want?" I asked irritatingly.

"Oops, My bad" He said, earning a glance from me

"Okay, Okay I know you are stressed, trying to figure out where Daniel is,, but bro you really need a break" He said.

"You know that we don't take breaks" I said,

making him sigh

"Yes, We do now come on man get your ass up, and let us go to the club and have some fun" He said.

"I am not in the mood of clubbing" I told him and continued looking at the files.

"No, I am not going to listen to you today, Now get your ass of that chair" he said.

As much I wanted to shout at him or even better kill him, I couldn't because he's not only my best friend but also a second-in-command. I am glaring at him, but it seems that he is not affected by him at all by it therefore, I stopped.

"Where is Paul?" I asked him.

"He is waiting for us in the living room" he said.

Wait!? Did I hear him correctly?

"Don't tell me that he is also in this stupid idea" I said.

"Of course, He is, Why can't he not be?" he asked.

"I will one day kill both of you with my bare hands" I told him.

"You know, You can't do that, right?" he asked.

Clearly from his voice, He was proud of it. I really felt like smacking him but I had to tolerate my anger. Getting out of my chair, I took my car keys and left the office, making sure to close the door on his face. You better call me arrogant then a bitch if you want to see me another day. My sister is the only one who can escape my warth by calling me a bitch when I am mad.

I walked to the living room and found Paul playing games on his phone. Upon hearing footsteps, He looked up and saw me. He looked around me than frowned.

"What's the matter?" I asked him.

"Where is bob?" he asked.

"I don't know, Am I supposed to know?" I asked him glaring.

"He came to your office some minutes ago" he said.

"My bad, he didn't show up there" I said and walked past him.

"What's wrong with you?" he asked as he came to the living room.

"Can we go before I change my mind?" I told them, Making Bob shit up while Paul stood.

I lead them to the garage. I am sure none of them want to drive So, I will have to drive I walked towards my jeep and unlocked it.

We got in and drove to one of my clubs. The reason as to why I agreed with their stupid plan was because I also wanted to meet with the manager because I find something fishy with the income that they're getting. The sum doesn't add up. I hope that he is not stealing from me because he will regret it.

It was a half an hour drive. We arrived and walked past the queue which people were making so that they could be allowed to get in. Some people looked at us with fear. They know that I am heartless, and I guess they know that this is one of my clubs.

We walked in after giving the bouncers a bod in return. The club was so full and this makes me suspicious about the finical report that I have been getting.

"There is something fishy" I said to no one in particular, but I could see Paul's and Bob's direction attracted to me.

We sat in the VIP section.

"Why don't you want us to go the office today?" Bob asked.

"I want to observe how the business here is going" I answered

"Why do you think that something is fishy?" Paul asked

"The place is full and that is not what the finical report says" I answered

"What does it claim then?" Bob asked

"That there are always less people and even when you count the amount of people indicated there and what they bought does not add up with the money deposited on the account that day" I said

"So, You mean the amount deposited on the account and on the reports are different?" Bob asked

"Yes" I simply answered, Making them nod their head in agreement

"Why don't we go and ask receipt book then we will find out?" Paul asked

"Yeah, that's a great idea" Bob answered, and we walked towards the bartender.

Upon, seeing us he started trembling, making Paul and Bob chuckle

's....Si.....Sir" he acknowledged my presence and I just gave him a nod in return.

"Can I get receipt book?" I asked him, and he seemed afraid of someone and I am sure it was not me.

"Sir, we were told not to give it to you" He said.

Damn, I like the confidence with this kid. He can even stand against me!!

Wait!! Did he just say they were told not to give it to me!

I raised an eyebrow to him, and he stepped back.

"By, Who?" Bob asked.

"I am sorry but if I say I will end up losing my job" the bartender said.

"So, that is what he threatened you with, fantastic" Paul said.

"I am sorry but if you won't give me what I want you will not lose your job but something more important than that" I said, but he just shrugged making me smirk.

"You know kid, it has been long since I killed someone, and I am sure you don't want to be the first, do you?" I asked him

At that he shivered

"But..... But....he said" he tried explaining, but I guess my glare shut him up.

"Are you sure after I give that to you that won't either kill me nor make me lose my job?" he asked.

"You can say something like that now give me what I want" I told him

"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 your right, but Who is he talking about? Who is threating him?" Paul asked

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

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

After waiting for the kid to come back for 15 minutes he came back carrying 3 receipt books
