Chapter 738 - Seven Hundred And Thirty-eight: Got Your Back (1/2)

The third point of view:

”Andrew?!” Maggie was surpised when she saw Andrew being dragged out of the meeting hell. Her heart almost jumped out of her chest thinking he has committed a crime that demanded death - Sakuzi was quite unpredictable at times.

”What's going on here?” She went over to them demanding an answer.

Upon seeing her, they finally let go of Andrew who glared at them. He was their superordinate and to have been manhandled that way by his subordinate was quite a slap to his face and an insult to his reputation.

Thankfully, they were smart enough not to make mocking remarks about him and clearly understood that the only reason that they were able to touch him at all was because of Emerald's order. Other than that, he would have cut their head off for laying their filthy hands on him. In the falcon gang, hierarchy really mattered.

”What is going on?” Maggie asked him but Andrew was still fuming with anger as he watched those two return to the meeting. She at once cupped his face, forcing his attention on her and at one his anger slowly began to vanish.

”It's nothing,” Andrew lied through his teeth but Maggie knew him well enough.

”We could do all day,” She was not giving up.

Andrew sighed, ”He called you Valentino's fuck mistress and I lost it. I should have punched the life out of him,” He said, causing Maggie's gaze to fall on his fist that had a trace of blood - Mikhail's filthy blood.

”Come, let's go before Emerald changes his mind and decides to punish you for acting out of line,” She grabbed his hand and began to lead him in the direction of her room.

She went to the bathroom and brought a wet toilet which she used to wipe the blood off his hand. None of them said a word and after she was done with cleaning the blood, they both lay down on the bed cuddling each other.

”What does Valentino plan to do with him?” She referred to Mikhail.

”They plan on getting rid of him,” Andrew answered, ”He's nothing but a nuisance that needs to be eradicated from society,”

Maggie sighed deeply and that didn't go by Andrew. He glanced down, asking, ”What's wrong?”

”This is all my fault, Andrew. I should be the one clearing the mess I made yet here I am hiding like a fool. I feel helpless and I hate feeling hateless,” Maggie expressed herself.

”Hey,” Andrew lifted her chin, ”You're not being a burden to us. In the Falcon, we treat each other as one and you're a part of this family. So there's no way on earth we are letting you deal with that bastard on your own,” He promised her

”But still -”

Andrew pressed his finger against her lips, shutting her up.

”No, but, now sleep,” He drew her closer to his chest and hardly closed his eyes for a minute when a loud bang was heard.

At first, Andrew waved it off as some of the boys were fooling around since this wasn't the first time those idiots shot in the air. However, the second shot came coupled with the fact that Mikhail was still in the premises meant that something must have gone wrong.

Maggie was the first to get off the bed as more gunshots were heard.

”I think there's a shootout, what's happening?” She asked with a trace of worry.

Andrew got his walkie talkie and tried to make contact with the others and one finally answered and gave him the bad news, ”Mikhail made an escape,”

”Shit!” Andrew cursed and then reached under his desk for a gun magnetted to the furniture and pulled it out, stuffing the weapon in the waistband of his jeans.

”You're staying here,” He commanded her yet Maggie glared liquid fire at him.
