Chapter 104 - 104 - Tangled



"Did you remember the usb file given to Luke by his father? I think that was more than three years ago when they were dealing with the Santelmo\'s?" I asked.

"Yes. What about it?" He asked with a frown face.

​​

"In the diary, she mentioned about the file she was planning to send to the royal family and the Wilson Clan. Do you think that was it?" I asked.

Jayden didn\'t say a word for a moment. I know he was trying to remember the day Mr.Wilson gave Luke the usb file. That was a month before our graduation in senior high school.

"Do you think what happened to us and our friends were all related?" I asked again.

"Possibly." He simply answered.

When I came back, I never had a chance to ask what happened to the Santelmo\'s and the Wilson Clan. Back then, me and the girls were guarded by Wilson\'s security team. The Santelmo\'s had a longtime feud with the Wilson\'s, resulting in the kidnapping of Luke, Alora, Sophie and Percy when they were kids.

They said that there\'s a more powerful Mafia clan backing up the Santelmo\'s that\'s why they were able to kidnap the kids of the four wealthiest clans in the country. When Alora was kidnapped the second time, that\'s when we realized that we had a much bigger enemy.

"Love, what happened with the Santelmo\'s when I was away? The last time I remember was the plan of saving Alora\'s aunt. Did Luke show you what\'s on the usb file?" I asked, more curious than ever.

I was thinking if Matthew Forelli was mentioned on that file Luke has. If it\'s all about the Mafia, I know there\'s a possibility that he was included. He was the boss of the entire mafia clan so it\'s impossible that he wasn\'t there.

"Peg, are you trying to take down your father? If it\'s for me, please forget it. I told you I\'m fine. Let\'s focus on us." He said.

"Love, it wasn\'t just for you. My sisters asked me to help them. I can\'t just sit around and do nothing. And I am scared that he\'ll eventually do something to us, to Caden. I don\'t think he\'ll stop messing with our lives especially now that he found you." I said in a worried voice.

The things I found out about him and from his reactions when he found out about me and Jayden were troubling me. If I knew he was that evil I would have never wasted my time looking for him.

Now that it\'s clear we were all connected and that our lives were tangled with the Mafia, we have to be more careful from now on. 

Jayden took a deep breath again. Ever since we met my father, all we could do was sigh and breathe deeply. It was depressing.

JAYDEN POV (MONTHS BEFORE PEGGY\'S DISAPPEARANCE)

"Luke did you find out something on that usb?" I asked.

I was curious because I found out mom was the daughter of one of the Mafia Clan and it\'s possible that her murderer came from one of them.

"I haven\'t finished all of it yet. There are a lot of files in there, all illegal activities of the Mafia." He said.

Luke\'s father gave him a USB device that contains all the information of the Mafia. From what we know so far, the Wilson Clan and the Santelmo have been in a feud for decades. And that USB will end the Mafia Clans in messing with our lives.

"Will you promise to tell me if you find something about my mother? And Peggy\'s father, Matthew Forelli." I asked.

"I will. Don\'t worry." That was the time I asked Luke about the usb.

When I asked him again, he said that nothing about my mom or Matthew Forelly was on it. So I didn\'t ask him further. But if I think it through, there were times that they didn\'t include me in some meetings about the issue with the Mafia. Luke gave me more work in the office so I got myself busy. I accepted it since I knew he needed to focus on other things. When Peggy disappeared, I never asked him about it because I lost interest. Next thing I knew, the Santelmo\'s stopped messing around with them and they were able to save Alora\'s aunt, Camila.

"Love? I think we need to call Luke." Peggy whispered.

I nodded and dialed Luke\'s number.

"What is it?" He asked.

"Did you hide something from me back then? About that usb?" I asked, pissed.

If he did, I know he has his reasons. I just wished he trusted me more.

The other line became quiet, then I heard him sigh.

"Jayden, it was your father\'s request. I wanted to tell you but your father pleaded to keep it a secret, especially that time Peggy was pregnant." He answered.

"Then why didn\'t you tell me after? Peggy disappeared for three years and you never told me anything." I said, almost yelling.

I felt Peggy\'s hand holding my arms, as if asking me to calm down. Looking at her ocean blue eyes, I calmed down.

"Jayden, you lost yourself after Peggy left. Do you think I could tell you that her father killed your mother in that state? Look what happened when you found out about it, you tried to kill yourself. I chose to lie to you because I don\'t want to be responsible for your death." He said in a firm voice.

I sighed again. "Fine! Don\'t think that you were forgiven. I need that file, can you send it to me?"

"Did you find out something?" Luke asked.

"Yes. A diary. And it\'s possible that the one who gave your father that usb was the same person who owned this diary." I said.

"I\'ll bring it to you. Let\'s talk in person. I\'ll bring Andrew and Percy with me." He said.

"Leave a security team for the girls and the kids. I don\'t think Peggy\'s father would stay quiet now that he found me." I warned.
