The Mafia’s Possession

”Did you miss me?” Hazel smiled and walked towards Flynn, leaving the girl she came with standing.

Flynn bit his lower lips hard that he felt the taste of his blood on his lips.

It has been over five years, what the hell was Hazel doing here?

”Why are you here?” Flynn swallowed hard.

”Come on, the last time I checked, you didn’t sign the divorce papers, and that means, I am still married to you,” Hazel trailed her fingertips on his chest, twitching her mouth seductively.

”Excuse me?” Melanie creased her brow, pushed Hazel away from Flynn, and glared at her husband.

”What is going on?”

”Oh, I’ve heard a lot about you, Miss Melanie Tatum,”

”Mrs. Melanie Harlan,” Melanie snapped.

”Oh, I see,” Hazel chuckled.

Flynn patted Melanie gently and walked towards Hazel.

“What are you doing here?” Flynn glared at her dangerously.

”Your child wants to meet you. Beverly, come say hi to papa,” Hazel beckoned to the little girl she entered with.

Child?

Melanie creased her brow.

Flynn had a child?

Beverly walked sluggishly towards Flynn then smiled at him.

”I’ve heard a lot about you from mama, Papa,” the little girl smiled innocently.

Flynn furrowed his brow as he pinned his eyes on the girl. She had green eyes just like him and her lips were tiny just like his.

The last time he checked, he had no child.

”Flynn?” Melanie shook her head and stepped backward.

Didn’t Flynn said he had never married?

He never told her he had a child too.

So, everything he had told her was a lie.

”What string are you trying to pull, Hazel? I don’t have a baby with you. This child is not mine!” Flynn yelled.

”Che Cosa?(what)” Hazel raised a brow and said in her Italian language.

”Get out of my house,” Flynn glared at her.

”No, this child is yours and you are going to take full responsibility for her else, I’ll ruin the reputation you have been keeping. You know better than anyone that it is a piece of cake,” she drawled in an accent.

”How is this girl my child? You left six years ago, how the hell did you have a daughter for me!?” Flynn yelled and Melanie flinched where she stood.

Her world was finally crumbling.

”I realized I was carrying your baby three weeks after I left, but you don’t think I’m going to rush back, right?” Hazel smirked.

”Why are you here now?” Flynn creased his brow.

”Your daughter needs her father,” Hazel smiled.

”For the last time Hazel, she is not my daughter!” Flynn roared and the girl rushed towards her mother.

”You wish,” Hazel sneered.

”Bro…” Kyle rushed down the stairs with Elle, Melinda, and Tyler trailing behind him.

Kyle bit his lips nervously when he saw Hazel, his brother’s ex-wife was back and he doubts if things were going to be fine.

He rushed towards Melanie that was staggering and pulled her closer to him gently.

”Sister-in-law?”

”Flynn, you lied to me! Everything you told me was a lie! Everything!” Melanie screamed and was quite grateful that Kyle was holding her.

Her legs were failing her, her body was shaking.

She wished all of these were a dream, a dream she was very eager to wake up from.

Well, it seems luck was not on her side because Hazel was still standing in front of her husband with the child she had borne for him.

Flynn massaged his temple as the headache began to eat him up. This look on his wife’s face was not something he had ever wanted to see.

She looked betrayed.

Of course, he had betrayed her.

He had no idea his ex-wife, Hazel Giovanna was going to come back.

And now? She claimed she had a child for him.

”Get this girl out of my house,” Flynn whispered.

”She is your daughter,” Hazel smirked.

”She is not my daughter!” Flynn yelled, losing his cool.

”What? Hazel bore a child for Flynn?” Elle leaned towards Kyle.

Kyle said nothing but only kept consoling Melanie that had fallen on the ground, crying uncontrollably.

Camila on the other hand knew that she dare not say anything about her pregnancy.

These people especially Hazel were going to tear her into pieces.

Damn! Wasn’t her own life ruined already?

If she could not pin the baby on Flynn, who the hell was going to be the father of her unborn baby!?

Oh, shit!

Flynn closed his eyes and shook his head, he felt like his head was going to explode. Hazel was not an easy woman to deal with. His wife on the other hand was not someone he wanted to see hurt.

He was doomed!

He opened his eyes and grabbed Beverly by her tiny wrist and started to pull her along with him towards the door.

”Where are you taking my daughter to!?” Hazel screamed and Flynn stopped walking.

”First, I need to confirm if this daughter is mine. And if it turns out that she is not, I will make you see hell. You know I do not bluff,” he glanced at Beverly then at Melanie whose eyes were red and swollen as a result of the cry.

Melanie hit her chest and started to cry again. Elle bent beside her and patted her along with Kyle.

Melinda said nothing but only stared at them.

When she already thought she was wrong about what she thought of Flynn, the tycoon decided to show his colors and hurt her daughter.

”Tsk… Since when did Flynn like ladies that can’t control their emotions?” Hazel smirked and Elle stood up and walked towards her.

”Say any more word to her and you will regret it.”

”Come on, sister-in-law. Have you forgotten how we used to be? Are you taking that Lil b•tch’s side over me? You used to like me very much,” Hazel sneered.

Elle creased her brow and slapped Hazel immediately. ”You fatherfvcking Italian b•tch! That girl is not my brother’s child. He will come back with the result, so, don’t feel too relaxed!” Elle snapped.

”Well, let’s wait for him. Don’t be too relaxed, you can’t get away with the slap. I’ll do to you what you do to me. I’m Hazel Giovanna, b•tch,” Hazel sneered and shoved her hair backward.

Camila swallowed hard and turned silently. It seems no one even knew she was there. She walked towards the door and turned the knob silently.

She clenched her fist and inhaled deeply as soon as she got out of the house.

She needs to do something about her stomach before it starts to bulge.

Flynn sat in his car and watch Beverly lick ice cream through the mirror.

He had been waiting for the DNA result for the past three hours and he wished that this girl was not his daughter.

During that three hours, she had been with Beverly, he had driven her around and had bought her different toys and snacks. He could not even count the chocolate Beverly had eaten in those hours. She did not stop calling him ‘papa’ as she pointed at new things that she wanted to buy while Flynn didn’t hesitate one bit in buying them for her.

The daughter was not his, he kept reassuring himself as the image of Melanie popped up in his head.

Flynn flinched slightly when his phone rang, he checked who the caller was and it was the laboratorist, he picked the call hurriedly.

”The test result is out, Mr. Harlan,” a voice said from the other head and he nodded his head.

He started the car and began to drive to the laboratory that was just three-minute drive away.

~~

Flynn held the result that was in his hand tightly and stared at Beverly that was smiling at him.

“Is this result correct?” Flynn turned to look at the laboratorist.

”Yes, it is 99. 9% correct.”

”Okay,” Flynn forced a smile.

He held Beverly’s hand and led her out of the laboratory. He carried her inside the car and sighed deeply. Everything is so fvcked up.

Melanie had stopped crying, her head was on her mother’s chest. She had fallen asleep while waiting for Flynn, and now that she had woken up, her husband was still not back.

They all stood up in anticipation as soon as they heard the gate open and a car drove in.

After a minute had passed, Flynn entered the living room and walked towards Melanie, and pulled her into a hug immediately.

”I’m sorry,” he whispered in her ear as he stroked her hair gently.

Melanie pushed him away with all the strength she had in her and glared at him.

”You are not the father, right?” She stared at him and hoped he wasn’t the father.

”Look, I’m so sorry. I don’t know how…”

”She is your daughter!?” Melanie cried out and grabbed her chest.

”Sweet…”

”I trusted you! You said you guys only dated. But, that was all a lie! You married her and now, she has a child with you! Gosh, Flynn…” Melanie cried and hit his chest.

”I can explain. I’m sorry for not coming out clean to you,” Flynn tried to pat her.

Melanie pulled away from him and walked towards Elle, ”You knew about that woman too? I remember asking you. You didn’t say anything. All of you are lier! I hate the fact that I trust all of you. Elle, Kyle, and Flynn, all of you lied to me! (Walked towards Flynn) there is no single thing you don’t know about me. But you? I wonder how dark your world is!” Melanie wailed and fell to the ground.

”Mela…” Melinda started.

”No one should call my name! No one! Arrgh! I… can’t believe… this is reality. I wished… it was a dream. I…” Then she fell into oblivion.

”Babe! Melanie!” Flynn panicked as he tapped her gently.

He grabbed his car key that he had dropped on the table beside him and carried Melanie in his arm.

Elle, Kyle, Tyler, and Melinda rushed after him. When they got out of the house, Flynn had already started the car. Kyle rushed inside to take his car key and they all got inside the car to follow Flynn.

..

They all held their breath as they saw Flynn’s car that was speeding ahead of them. He had even violated the traffic rules but he cared less.

Kyle imagined the look that was on his brother’s face at the moment.

He shook his head, hissed loudly, and stepped on the gas.

Meanwhile…

”Beverly, sit down anywhere you want to. You are in your father’s house,” she smiled at her daughter who smiled back.

”Mama, is something wrong? Is papa not happy?” Beverly pouted.

”That’s not it princess, your papa is more than happy to see you,” Hazel smiled sweetly at her.

”Papa is nice, mama. He bought a lot of things for me. I like him,” Beverly grinned, revealing her incomplete set of teeth.

”I know, right?” Hazel smiled.

Hazel groaned as soon as her cellphone rang and saw who was calling.

”Pronto,” she rolled her eyes.

”When are you coming to Los Angeles, G?”

”I’m in LA already. I must say, it didn’t get any better from how I left it.”

”Are you kidding me!? I should be the first person you come to see!”

”Ah… Stop nagging old man!” Hazel groaned.

”Where are you?”

”Harlan mansion. I’m at Flynn’s house and you need to see the free movies I’ve been watching. Tsk tsk tsk… You missed a lot,” Hazel shook her head.

”When are we meeting?”

”Soon, old man,” Hazel answered and ended the call immediately not waiting to hear anything from the old man.

Ah… Zach Tordoff was a pain in the a$$.

TBC…
