Coming Home For Christmas

Chapter 71 - You Don't Mess With The Antonelli's

Logan's POV

“Hello there brothers or should I say brother and cousin”

IN

He said with a smirk

“Klayton Antonelli"

+ evil incarnate standing right in front of me

3 and shook the hands of his friends

"It's good to see you again, Klay, it's been a while"

"Yeah, it has, it's been about nine or ten months, right? I think the last time we saw each other was just before I went back to Cameron”

“It was”

Isaid sadly as I remembered why he had to go back home

“I'm sorry about Tommy, my brothers, he was a good man"

I offer my condolences to the three men who had lost a very good friend of theirs not too long ago

"Yeah, he was, he was the best"

Klayton said stoically and to anyone looking at him, they'd think he doesn't care but he's only acting that way because my secretary is still in

here and he has to keep up appearances as the Don of the Antonelli family and empire

"You remember my brother-in-law Benjamin Williams and my good friend Connor Gordon, right?"

"Of course, it's good to see you all again”

Chapter 71 - You Don't Mess Wi

"It's good to see you too, Logan, how's things?”

Benjamin asks me and I sigh in frustration

“Things are great, Ben but they could be even better"

“And that's why we're here?"

Klayton said with a smirk

“Anyway guys, come on in and make yourselves comfy, Sophie..Sophie"

I called my secretary's name who was looking at us all in shock and disbelief

I don't blame her for reacting this way, I mean, it's not every day one of the most powerful men in America shows up at your place of work

“Sophie”

Isaid her name again and this time I was successful in getting her attention

“Can you bring my friends and 1 some refreshments, please?”

“Su..sure, sir, right a.away”

Sophie scurries out of the room like her ass was on fire and shuts the door on the way out

Klayton sat down on the armchair while his friends sat on the couch, I was sitting on the couch opposite them and Justin was sitting on the

other armchair

"So, first things first..how is my little cousin?"

Klayton asks referring to my wife

Yes I know, you're all probably thinking = what the f**k? Klayton and Lacey are related? and the answer is yes, they are, they're cousins via

Lacey's mom Louise and Klayton's father Mario

“She's good"

"Good?"

Klayton asks while narrowing his eyes between myself and Justin

"Good isn't great, Logan, it's not perfect or ecstatic, so I ask you again...how is my cousin?"

He growls and I briefly look over at Justin before looking back at Klayton

“She's good, Klay, she really is...”

I drift off as I run my hand through my hair before stroking my stubbly chin

“It's just this whole GiGi situation amongst other things that are draining her and messing with her mental health”

“Yeah, so I've heard"

Klayton said in a scary tone as he narrowed his eyes on Justin who immediately looked down

"La famiglia prima di tutto..famiglia é per sempre or did you Carpenters forget about that, Justin?" (Family comes first) (Family is forever)

"You don't understand, Klayton..."

Justin said only to be cut off by his cousin

“I don't understand? then make me understand, cousin, help me to understand how you all turned your backs on not just your baby sister

and daughter but your pregnant baby sister and daughter from what I've heard"

“What like you did, Cassie? I heard she was pregnant when you did a runner as well”

Justin growled and the tension in the room which was already thick got even thicker

Chapter 71 - You Don't Mess Wi

“Listen here you little sh..."

Klayton said but was cut off by a knock at the door

“Come in"

The door opens and Sophie walks in with a tray in her hand

She quickly places the tray on the table and I thank her before she leaves as fast as she arrived

As soon as Sophie was gone and the door was shut, Klayton snapped his head towards Justin

"You better watch your f****g tongue in the future, boy..I'm not a nice man when you bring up my wife or our past in a situation where it's

not called for, do you understand me?"

Klayton growled and Justin nodded his head

"Yes"

“Yes, what?"

“Yes, Don"

Justin said through gritted teeth

He clearly doesn't like the disrespect his cousin is giving him but in all honesty, I don't blame my friend for getting upset and angry with him

Klayton is just as possessive and over-protective of his wife as I am with Lacey, maybe I'd be at the same level as him if I was in the mafia

with him but that's not my thing and I don't have to worry about other dangerous assholes coming after my wife and kids

"Can we get back to why we're here, please?"

“Yes, let's”

Klayton sends one last glare to Justin before looking at me

“I know you've already told me pretty much everything that's happened but I need you to repeat it to me again, ok and don't leave

anything out, Logan”

“ok

Istand up from the couch and go over to my bar to get myself a bottle of bourbon

If he's forcing me to go over this again then I'm gonna need a much stronger drink than coffee

1 pour myself a glass of whiskey and down it in one go before telling Klayton every single last detail from beginning to end

Klayton wasn't happy, he wasn't happy at all and I could tell from the way he was gripping the arms of the chair he was sitting in that he was

close to losing his s**t

“Klayton..."

“I warned you"

He growled as he sat forward resting his arms on his legs

“Iwarned you about that tramp but you didn't f****g listen to me"

“Tknow, Klay"

“And if memory serves me right..didn't Lacey warn you about her as well?"

He asks confusing me

“No, not that I can remember” "She did"

Justin says shocking me

"When?"

“It was at my wedding, you brought GiGi as your date and Lacey tried to warn you that she was no good but you refused to listen to her"

"What? I don't remember that"

Chapter 71 - You Don't Mess Wi I say and Justin rolls his eyes

"Yeah because you spent most of the night knocking back bourbon like it was water whilst glaring at Dylan like you wanted to bury him

alive”

"That's because I did and I still do"

"Well, that's easily arranged, Lo, you only have to say the word..I've never liked that i***t"

Klayton said while stroking his stubbly chin

“Why? what's he done to you?"

“Apart from messing with my baby cousin and breaking her precious heart...the little fucker wouldn't stop staring at my d**k when we were

in the toilets together one time"

"What were you doing alone with Dylan Tate in the toilets, cousin?”

Justin asks sounding very amused while Klayton glares at him

"Iwas taking a piss, asshole and so was he but his eyes kept straying south”

“When was this?"

Task him and he shrugs his shoulders

"Some party our family held in the Hamptons around six years ago"

He says and my eyes widen

"Oh god"

I groaned whilst rubbing my forehead in annoyance

"What? what's wrong?"

Tlook over at an angry Justin before looking back at Klayton

"That party was Lacey's birthday, it was the last birthday we shared

Chapter 71 - You Don't Mess Wi

with her before she left, it's also the party where Dylan and Luca first started their affair" From NôvelDrama.Org.

"You're kidding me?"

He asks sounding disgusted and angry

“I wish we were, cousin, I really wish we were but unfortunately, we're not"

Justin says with a sigh

“I just hope Lacey never finds out about this because what she did to Dylan the other day will be nothing compared to if she finds out he

was also checking out her favourite cousin's junk at that very same party as well"

"What do you mean? what did she do the other day?"

Connor asks and Justin smirks

“She beat the living s**t out of her ex, that's what she did, Connor and

I'm not talking about her fighting like a little girl in a catfight either, no, Lacey fought like a f*****g dude"

“Really?”

Ben asks shocked

"Yep, she broke his nose and fractured his cheekbone, not to mention,

she's permanently damaged his pride and his ego as well, two things that are very important two every man”

“That sounds like Lacey"

Klayton said with a proud smirk on his face

"You don't mess with an Antonelli and get away with it..which brings me to the reason why we're here, what do you wanna do with GiGi

Addams? you've already made it clear you don't want her dead for whatever reason even though her actions warrant it in my opinion”

Chapter 71 - You Don't Mess Wi. ad

"It's because want her to suffer, Klay... want her to live every day of her miserable life knowing she f***d up and there's nothing she can do

to change her past, her present or her future”

Itell him sternly

“They say you're given two paths in life and it's up to you which one you take, right? well, GiGi could've taken the path of being a good

daughter to her parents, a great mother to her two precious children and a good wife to some poor sap, she could've also taken the path of

going to college and working hard to live the lives we all do but she didn't, instead, she chose the second path, the path of being a sneaky,

manipulative, selfish snake who isn't happy with destroying her own families lives but also mine...it's obvious there are no limits to what

she'll go to, to break up my marriage and family and I wanna put an end to it now before she finds a way to succeed"

"Oh trust me, brother, that'll never happen...like I said you don't mess with an Antonelli and I think I know the perfect way to punish this

little homewrecker"

“Oh yeah, how?"

Justin asks and Klayton smirks

“You'll find out soon enough but first, I wanna speak to my little cousin, it's only fair she has some input and make sure GiGi's punishment

fits her crimes”

"You got it"

1 say matching Klayton's smirk with my own

Author's PO

As the group of men sit and talk about the fate of GiGi Addams, across town, the girl herself is all smug and feeling very proud of herself as

she sits

in her apartment relishing in the chaos she's caused

“Soon Logan, soon you'll be mine and that w***e and her brats will be out of our lives for good"

GiGi says as she sips on her champagne and sighs in contentment completely oblivious of the dangerous storm that's coming her way
