Chapter 412 Lilim || Land of Mafia
Rudy raised his brow in confusion and asked, “Who is in the car?”
“Umm.. my driver?”
“…I thought you were the one who drove the car…”
“No way. I don’t even know the D of driving.”
“Are you fine with that?” Rudy asked calmly. “The driver must have seen us kissing. What if he tells your brother or father?”
“Don’t worry. It’s a lady driver, and she is cool.”
“Cool?”
“She won’t snitch on me. She is my personal bodyguard as well, and I have already told her everything about you. And actually…”
Maria knocked on the window, and it rolled down.
“She also wanted to meet you.”
Rudy looked at the lady driver and smiled nervously. It wasn’t as though he cared if she had seen them kissing, but he didn’t want his plan to fail.
If the lady driver ends up telling Rusher about this, then the rest of his plan will be ruined. Rudy wasn’t ready to take such a risk, but he believed Maria and trusted her words.
The lady driver was wearing black glasses and a black suit. Her black hair seemed long, but she hand knotted them on her head with a sharp pointy blade.
“My name is Lilim. I am 26 years old and single. Professionally trained in all sorts of hand-to-hand and weapon combats. I was an assassin before I was appointed as Lady Maria’s bodyguard.
When she mentioned you for the first time, I thought you were taking advantage of her. Especially when she told me, she gave you the black card, but you colored me surprised. I saw your VIP tournament matches, and I was amazed.
I can see why Lady Maria likes you. She always loved gambling, so having someone with the same hobby as her must have been delightful. I will not tell you everything she said but rest assured, Lady Maria’s happiness comes first for me.
I will keep it a secret that you are a male and you are having an affair with lady Maria. However!”p
She frowned her face and continued, “If you ever made her cry, that will be your last day. I will find you from any corner of the world and give you the most painful death possible!”
“Lilim!” Maria slapped Lilim’s mouth and yelled, “What do you think you are saying?! We finally managed to kiss, and you are trying to scare him!”
“Oh, don’t worry.” Rudy smiled gently and said, “I am not scared in the least. In fact, I like her.”
Rudy shook hands with Lilim and said, “I have a feeling that we will get along well, Miss Lilim.”
“I introduced myself, so now it’s your turn.”
“But Maria has already told me everything about me, right?”
“She told me everything ‘she’ knows. And she knows nothing about you,” Lilim commented.
“My name is Rudy. I am… not single. I also happen to know a bit of fighting, and I apparently have super luck.”
Rudy purposely made his introduction awkward as that was the best way to give the least amount of information.
“Well, you are a commoner, so I didn’t expect anything from you,” Lilim remarked. “Now, hop into the car, or Lady Maria will kill me for talking with you.”
“Hmm?”
Maria and Rudy got into the backseat and sat comfortably beside each other.
Lilim turned on the car and began driving it while looking at Rudy from the rearview mirror.
“You don’t look bad, to be honest. You are quite handsome, if I have to say. Now I am curious why Lady Maria took a liking to you. Was it because of your looks or because of your super luck?”
“It’s none of that!” Maria punched Lilim’s seat from behind and said, “I like him because of how he is!”
“Oh? Lady Maria, you still act like a kid. Why are you so gullible?”
“What do you mean?”
“You don’t understand, huh?” Lilim sighed softly. Although she was talking with Maria while looking at Rudy from the rearview mirror, her attention was on the road, and she was driving properly.
“What are you talking about?” Maria asked with an annoyed look on her face.
“Anyone can pretend to be someone. They can act kind if they want, but they can be assholes from the inside. You should love someone for who they are. Humans are… nasty. They will act like a beggar when they need something and act like a master when they are done.
Of course, I am not saying that Master Rudy is that type of person, but you should genuinely grow mature. You are already twenty, and it’s about time you learn how the world works.
You are a mafia, and you should act like one. You can’t care for everyone, Lady Maria. But I guess your father and brother are also to be blamed. They kept you like a caged bird to protect you, but they never realized that the caged bird can’t learn to fly.”
“…” Rudy was even more curious about Lilim.
Typically, the bodyguards, drivers, and maids; in other words, the servants would keep their mouths shut and never dare to state their opinion unless otherwise asked.
Even Niti was the same, who never spoke against Jane, although their relationship was more like a mother and daughter rather than that of a maid and a master.
However, Lilim and Maria seemed different. To Rudy, they seemed more like sisters who teased each other but still cared for them and gave wisdom to them.
“I agree with what Lilim is saying,” Rudy quipped. “I would be lying if I say you aren’t gullible. But I am myself with you. I don’t pretend to be someone else.”
“Are you saying that you are not hiding anything from her?” Lilim asked with a judging look on her face.
“I could be hiding a thing or two from her. But that has nothing to do with what or how I act. If I wanted to fool Maria, I would have taken advantage of her innocence long ago.”
“Hmm~ You don’t seem to be lying.”
Around thirty minutes later, the car entered the underworld and passed through various security measures.
“Ross Syndicate is the first location you would see after entering the underworld. Every other syndicate and organization has different tunnel gates to enter, which are located in various parts of this country.”
The car stopped in front of a massive estate as the Ross Syndicate’s members surrounded it from all sides.
Lilim got out of the car and opened the door.
“Welcome to the land of the Mafia.”
