Fall For My Ex’s Mafia Father

Chapter 143
“Come on,” I say, pulling on Daniel's sleeve and tugging him towards the back
garden. “Let's talk somewhere quiet.”
Daniel anxiously follows me out the back door, looking behind us to see if
anyone's followed before pulling the door shut. I sit down at the little table and
wait for him to join me, my mind spinning as I try to decide what to say and how
to say it.
“So?” Daniel asks, sitting tense in the chair beside me.
“Um,” I say, looking down into my coffee. “Your dad knows that someone was in
your room with you last night. That you had a “midnight visitor.’ And you...well,
that you weren't playing scrabble with them.”
Daniel's face is grave now and I see him curse under his breath as he looks
away from me, his eyes going unfocused as he quickly sorts through the
consequences of this development. “But he doesn’t know who?” Daniel asks
quietly after a long pause.
“No,” I murmur, watching him closely.
Slowly, Daniel turns his head and looks back at me. “But you do.”
I bite my lip and raise my hands to play with my hair. Before I can touch the end
of my red ponytail, though, I realize what I'm doing

and carefully fold my hands back in my lap. I just give Daniel one
slow nod.
“Damn it,” Daniel curses, breathing out a big breath and looking up at the sky.
I watch the variety of emotions cross his face — worry, fear, frustration, exhaustion
— as he figures out what he wants to do next. When he turns his face back to
mine, I'm surprised to see that anger has won out.
“You know you can't tell anyone, right, Fay?” he demands. “That you will ruin my
life if you do?”
My mouth falls open a little, shocked at the accusation behind his words. But
then I snap my mouth shut, realizing that I did consider doing just that a few
minutes ago. But he doesn’t know that — and the fact that he immediately
distrusts me pisses me off.
“Daniel,” I snap, leaning forward in my chair. “I would never tell anyone a secret
like that — one that could get you and him in big trouble. I can't believe that you
would even think that I would!” I point my hand to my chest now for emphasis.
“I'm the one who dragged your father out of the hall last night before he could
look through your keyhole, before he could figure out who the hell you were in
there with
“Is that what you were doing, Fay?” Daniel hisses, leaning forward, suddenly
furious with me but eager to keep his voice low. “You were looking through my
keyhole? Spying on me?”

I blink in surprise and my mouth falls open again. “Seriously, Daniel? That's what
you want to harp on in this situation? Not the fact that I saved you from your dad
figuring out your secret, one that I am continuing to keep, but that I was spying
on you? Yeah, I heard noises from your room — I wanted to check and make sure
you were okay —"
“Oh, okay, Fay,” Daniel taunts, sarcastic, leaning back in his chair. “You just
wanted to check on me, so you leaned down and looked through the keyhole on
my door. And do you think, maybe, that the reason my dad was so curious about
what was going on in my room was not because of noises he wouldn't have
checked in on, but because he saw you out in the hallway at one in the morning,
peeping through my door?”
