Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband by Paga Slayer

Chapter 423 Prologue

"Sir, you have an appointment tomorrow. Can I schedule it for 2:00 p.m.?" Lara, his secretary, asked.

"Lara, you know I don't work on weekends, and tomorrow specifically, I have a lunch planned with my family. Please clear my schedule, and if it's not urgent, book the appointment for Monday. Otherwise, let me know if I can make time for this meeting," he said curtly. Lara watched him in awe. He was accustomed to receiving attention from girls and remained unfazed by the admiring glances of his female staff in the office. Sometimes, it irritated him. He sighed and left the office, heading straight to the parking lot. He settled inside his red Ferrari, started the ignition, and drove towards his home.

Ryder Knight, a twenty-eight-year-old billionaire and owner of Knight

Enterprises, had achieved success and popularity at a young age. He was handsome, attractive, and the most sought-after bachelor in New York City.

He possessed two qualities that drove girls crazy: lots of money and good looks.

As soon as I got home, my phone started buzzing. I picked it up and swiped to answer.

"Hey buddy, where are you? We're waiting for you at Sizzle, the club," came Alex's voice through the speaker.

"Just got home. I'll change and be there in two minutes. Wait for me. I'll be there soon," I replied to my friend.

"OK, dude, come soon." My friend hung up, and I quickly changed into faded jeans, a black v-neck t-shirt, and a leather jacket. I gelled up my hair and spiked it, then put on my leather boots, grabbed my car keys, and headed for Club Sizzle.

After a 10-minute drive, I arrived at the club. I went through the VIP gate and entered inside. Since it was dark, I couldn't see properly in the dim
