Maid for the Mafia Boss

Third Person’s P. O. V.

The minute Theo saw Nassandra pale, he got worried.

And as the girl leaned herself against the wall, Theo knew there was something off.

That’s why when Nassandra sat down on the floor, he immediately assists her. Whatever he does to call her, she wouldn’t respond and would just look from behind him.

“What happened?!” Zeke and Kei both rushed outside from manang’s room and arrived upon seeing a fainting Nassandra.

Theo was confused as to why Nassandra was looking from behind but as he looked back, no one was there but a guard who obviously didn’t know what to do.

“Nass!” Keian went to Nassandra and held both of her cheeks.

“Baby, are you okay?” Slowly, Nass closed her eyes shut.

“Sh8t.” Keian immediately carries Nass to another room here in the infirmary.

Theo was once again confused at the stench of alcohol on Nassandra’s clothes. Its smell is familiar for him.

Zeke and Theo quickly followed Keian.

The doctor started to check on Nassandra’s vitals. The heart rate of the woman is inaudibly fast and her blood pressure was slightly elevated.

“What happened to her?” Keian asked to Theo. The latter sighed.

“I don’t know. We were just talking to each other when she suddenly got dizzy. I can run tests on her if you like. But it could be possible that overfatigue is the reason for her to loose consciousness.

Or not…

“Do everything that you have to do.” Keian stated as he held Theo by the shoulders as a sign of trust.

“Of course I will.” Kei nodded and went towards Nassandra who’s lying in bed.

He held her face gently.

“Call me if you’re done with the tests. I just need to do something important.” He saidnto Theo.

“Okay, Kei.” Keian planted a kiss on Nassandra’s forehead before walking back to Zeke by the door.

“Stay with manang. See if she’ll be able to talk in the next few hours.” He glanced at Theo to ask if what he told Zeke was right and the doctor rightfully nodded.

“Sure.” Kei was about to leave until Zeke held him back by the arm.

“What are you going to do?” Zeke asked with eyebrows furrowed.

“Father.” Zeke immediately understood what Kei meant so he lets go of his arm to let him leave.

Zeke walked over to Nassandra and held her hand gently.

“Take care of her.”

“I will.” Zeke flashed a smile at Theo before heading back to manang’s room.

Theo took a deep breathe before calling some knowledgeable people for Nassandra’s test in order for them to know the reason for her unconsciousness.

After seeing Nassandra’s laboratory results…

Theo’s expression darkened as he quickly walks inside manang’s room.

As he got inside, he saw manang sleeping while Zeke was sitting on the side, guarding her.

“Theo? Uhmm. Manang still hasn’t—-” The doctor walks over to the bed and looks under it only to find nothing.

He touched the side of the bed everywhere but he can’t seem to find what he was looking for.

He also looked behind the bed’s frame, headboard, the drawer, every corner of the room and even behind the machine but he couldn’t find anything.

Zeke obviously looked puzzled at what Theo was doing.

“Hey. What are you looking for?” It was as if Theo didn’t hear anything and just proceeded on looking.

Zeke’s eyebrows creased as he held Theo by the arm to stop him from walking further.

He noticed Theo’s serious expression and his fists clenched

Theo gritted his teeth in frustration.

“Theo. What’s the matter?” Zeke held both of his shoulders to steady him. The two men looked at each other, with Theo in his serious face and Zeke’s confused expression.

Theo sighed.

“I’ll call Kei first. Then I will tell the both of you.” Zeke raised a brow but he agreed and lets go of his friend.

Theo pressed something on his smart watch and he plugs an earpiece to his ear.

“Jaguar to Alpha.” There was a moment of silence till Theo finally heard Kei’s voice.

“What is it?”

“I already got Nassandra’s test results. Can you come here? I need to tell you something, it’s important.”

“Okay. I’ll be there in ten minutes. Out.”

Theo sighed once again. He glances at Zeke before walking over to manang and checked on her.

“How long has she been asleep?” He asked Zeke.

“For about… 30 minutes.” Theo nodded, forming a theory in his head.

Theo sat on sofa, deep in thought. While Zeke returned to the spot he was sitting on beside manang’s bed.

After probably about 10 minutes, Kei arrived just in time.

“What are the results?” He immediately asked. Theo stood up as he saw Kei.

“Uhmmm. Let’s talk outside.” Zeke and Kei looked at each other but followed Theo as he went outside.

“Nass’ results shows that she have taken a lots of a drug called benzodiazepine commonly used as an anti-anxiety, helps with insomnia, treatment of muscle spasms and it can make you unconscious for hours.”

“Why would she take that drug?” Kei asked worriedly.

“We’re not sure if she really took the drug on purpose.” The two men got confused.

( I’m not a professional and the infor above are just research◉‿◉)

“Are you saying that someone gave him the drug and she took it?” Zeke asked with his eyebrows met.

It doesn’t make sense, on why Nass had to take this drug called benzodiazepine. Is she feeling anxious that’s why she started taking the drug?

That was the main question for Zeke and Kei.

“No. We all know that Nass is not that kind of person. And based on her behaviour these past few days, I didn’t notice anything bad happening to her. Do you? Maybe insomnia?” The two men shook their heads at the same time.

“No. We slept together the other day, she doesn’t seem to have troubles in sleeping.” Kei respond.

“Me too.”

Kei threw a vicious glare at Zeke. Even Theo looked up at him.

“What?” He scarily asked. Zeke’s eyes widened as he held both of his arms in surrender.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“What? N-No! I’m not saying that we slept together and conclude she has no sleeping problem. Me too, I don’t see any sign of anxiety on her. Let me finish my sentence first and then you can form such conclusions on your heads. Geez.” Zeke rolled his eyes and crossed his arms to his chest even though he was really nervous.

Kei observed Zeke from top to bottom before returning back to Theo.

“Uhmm *ehem* okay. What I’m saying is someone must have set her up, or someone used one of Marques Manufacturing’s product.” Kei raised a brow as he heard the name of the company while Zeke puts his hands to the side.

“The benzodiazepine in Nass’ system is the modified version made inside Marques Laboratories called GnBA-benzodiazepine. It is made for mafia purposes. So the enemies would be unconscious through smoke or smoke bombs. Usually it’s safe, it’ll just make you unconscious for a few hours. But this benzodiazepine that is inside Nass is a more modified version that when you inhale or been in a room with this drug’s aroma, it can kill you or make you fall in a coma. I’m not particularly sure what was the difference they made but based on the usual components inside the drug, they modified a lot.” With Theo’s statements, it immediately made Kei clench his fists in anger.

“That is the reason why I was looking for something in manang’s room.”

“Wait. Are you saying that Nass had inhaled the drug inside manang’s room?” Zeke asked. Theo nodded in answer.

“I guess, the reason why manang woke up was due to her response to the drug. Perhaps… she’s in a coma once again.” Zeke’s eyes widened as he quickly rushed to manang’s room to try and wake her up.

“Then, where is this… smoke coming from?” Theo shrugged.

“I checked every corner of manang’s room. There is no signs of where it could be possibly from.”

“There really is a traitor in this mafia and it even had a source from our company.” Kei said in a deep, dark voice.

Theo’s face saddened.

“Manang didn’t wake up! Theo!” The doctor sighed and went inside the room to check on manang.

He shook his head.

“She’s still alive, but she’s back in a coma again. She might have inhaled more than Nassandra.” Zeke ran his fingers through his hair in frustration as he didn’t know what to do.

He went to manang’s side and hugged the old lady.

Theo glanced at Kei whose expression was still dark and looked like he wants to kill someone.
