Billionaire, Let's Divorce! by BELLA

Bella answered first, shrugging, "Currently, besides the absolute power of Tavon as the godfather, there is Dylan and then Axel."

My gaze was already on her and my forehead was creasing into a deep V as I wondered who Axel was. She turned to me and explained, "Axel is Tavon's biological son and only son. Axel as you might already be piecing together has always been at odds with Tavon's son, Axel. They both want to be the next godfather."

Scarlet nodded, impressed by Bella's response. "You should know that the conflict has escalated into a very serious level. Serious to the point where they want to kill each other."

I shook my head slowly, my mouth firming an O as I finally pieced together why Dylan had thought it best to put me beside Tavon. He wanted me to observe and discover who Tavon was favoring to be the next godfather. Dylan did say that he wanted to be godfather so it made more sense now. It wasn't just about money anymore, it was power. Power to have control over everything and everyone.

And now this young woman wanted to manipulate that struggle for power to bring about Dylan's downfall. The depths of cunning and ruthlessness in the mafia world both awed and unsettled me. Where was the line between justifiable revenge and unconscionable cruelty? I felt like I was wading into murky ethical waters with each passing moment.

Scarlet looked between the both of us - an action I've noticed she likes to do in just a few minutes. You would almost think she was looking out for any sign of fear or any quality that would make this mission less successful.

"Now what we have to do," she started, "is to put them at loggerheads and intensify the conflict between them. Make them even more thirsty for the power they both covet until they're thirsty for each other's blood." She raised her eyebrows, "You know what to do next, right?"

nodded and I couldn't help but be worried. I don't if it was because I was now a mother. "Are you sure you want to get involved?' I asked, my voice tinged with concern. "What you want to
