Good Girl Gone Bad: Queen Of The Underworld - Chapter 360
“Ye -yes, sir!” Tuna sluggishly stood with great effort as he brought himself to stand with that oversized body of his. He was already thankful enough to escape death and doesn’t want to be an eyesore to this underbosses.
On the other hand, Mariel Min was still in his stupor as he stuttered the sentence ‘natural death’ over and over again. Seeing this, Jack shook his head as he could not believe that the person with a complete determination and unbending courage was now akin to a deranged person.
“I can’t believe the group of crazies added another mental person.” Jack scoffed as he entered the infirmary — gave up on the two weirdest men he had seen. Tito placed his gigantic hand that partially covered Mariel Min’s slender shoulder.
“Don’t worry about it. What the boss meant is that no one could touch her — she would only let her illness be her cause of death. Also, your daughter will surely receive the best treatment in the world if that man agreed which I’m sure he would.” Tito smiled in reassurance.
Indeed, Seraphina’s reassurance has always been like that. She never played the role of a saint and won’t drop sugar-coated promises that were pleasing to the ears. Alas, that ‘natural death’ she swore — she’ll surely honor it and won’t let anyone touch Mariel Min’s daughter. Furthermore, with Dragon’s backing and known influence, his daughter would be the safest individual in this chaotic world.
“I-is that the truth?” Mariel Min’s lower lips trembled as tears formed on the corner of his eyes. Just a little push and he could cry his heart out from gratefulness. It might be a little odd but to him, even though he was now an ‘official’ mob under Seraphina, it might be the greatest decision he had made; his daughter’s medical treatment was secured!
“Boss Tito, Boss Tito –” Tuna called out as he was still trying to get on his feet alas, he could not finish his sentence while doing so. Since Tito was slightly annoyed and somewhat felt distress just seeing Tuna’s struggles, he grabbed the back collar of the fat Tuna and lifted him up without exerting any effort — as expected from the mighty Tito!
“Thank you, boss Tito!’ Tuna could finally breathe freely with Tito’s help. Jack on the side scoffed in disdain with the sight of the distressing fatty early in the morning. If he was asked, he’d rather carry that d*mn fatty to his grave. In that case, he won’t have to see his disturbing reaction because it was contagious.
“Oh, isn’t that the luckiest traitor?” Leon who didn’t have to turn his head to see who and how many people came spoke. Though he hasn’t met Tuna, just with the sound of his voice and his ragged breathing that was worse than a snore, already matched all the information Leon heard from his confidants.
Meanwhile, Rex only glanced at them but pay no attention or even have any intention to ask what happened. After all, Seraphina invited people with her own reason and keep them alive on the same grounds. Moreover, it doesn’t interest him as his full engrossment was all diverted to the cunning Luciano. Just like Leon, Rex was itching to recuperate as soon as possible as he knew that Seraphina now faces more enemies; and more invincible to top it all off.
“I won’t do it again, boss! I already know my wrongs and would be loyal from that day onwards.” Tuna’s back and armpits were drenched as his excessive sweats multiplied due to fear. This time, he was sincere despite his staggering words.
However, now that the big boss herself was just right in front of him several times and he wasn’t aware of it, Tuna would rather stick with her or else, he’ll die even before he knew it — no more second chances or merciful punishment.
“Bla Bla, whatever. What does boss what’s with this gourmand?” Jack was miffed as he had enough of Tuna’s disturbing voice. Of course, Jack’s hostility towards Tuna was mainly due to his previous deeds of going against Seraphina. Even Jack with his crazy d_e_s_i_r_e to obstruct Seraphina’s rules, he wouldn’t. Hence, how dare this obese Tuna say such words after breaking his oath.
The only person who he found commendable when breaking Seraphina’s rules was Leon as he always surpassed Jack’s expectation. Regardless, Leon never done something that would harm Seraphina, rather, he goes beyond his orders for her own benefit; of course, for Leon’s entertainment as well.
“Is he always as foul-mouthed as this?” Mariel Min leaned a little closer to Tito and inquired with a whisper. Alas, unbeknownst to him, the three including his patients still heard him loud and clear.
Finally, Leon and Rex’s gaze landed on Mariel Min’s distress expression with their knitted brows. Tito who was dismayed hearing the word ‘foul-mouthed’ as he looked at Mariel Min in disbelief.
Seeing that their attention was all on him, Mariel Min unconsciously took a stepped back. It as if they were looking at the dumbest person they had seen in their life which puzzled Mariel Min to the core. Did he say something wrong? Based on his observation, Jack wasn’t the type of person who would be offended with something petty.
Hence, Mariel Min stole a quick glance at Jack and saw the same dismayed expression like his other colleagues.
“You call that foul-mouthed? Man, wait until you meet the only person who gave justice to that word — surpassed it even.” Tito broke the silence as he tapped Mariel Min’s shoulder and lightly shook his head.
“Oh boy, I never wished that guy’s presence, I’m sure you’d die early just hearing every word he says.” Jack clicked his tongue as he never sees his words as offending as Riggs. After all, his usual insults were akin to a toddler calling names, unlike Riggs’s creativity with his banter.
“Now I look forward to our dear s_e_n_s_i_t_i_v_e doctor meet the person who would cause him a heart attack.” Leon lightly chuckled as he found Mariel Min’s unexpected decency rather amusing with his age.
Rex nodded in agreement. Even him who had the longest patience would snap every once in a while with Riggs’s constant vein-popping insinuations. “Take Jack as a training; keep a strong heart and think of all the positive thoughts you can think of — that’s the advice I can give you.” Rex chimed in for the old-looking doctor to have some kind of preparations since he’s a little s_e_n_s_i_t_i_v_e to take Jack’s words as offensive.
