Contracted to the Mafia: A Plus-Size Bride Chapter 238
Author's PovAlexandro blinked. He lifted his own arm, smelled his armpit, then smelled the back of his hand. No odor. He had just showered before leaving the office. His soap still clung to his skin. Even his cologne was still faintly perceptible, the woody, tobacco scent that Lucia often said calmed her down."I don't smell," he said."You do smell!" Lucia covered her nose with the edge of her shirt. Her face was pale. Her chest rose and fell rapidly, as if she was holding back something rising from her stomach. "Go away, Ale! Don't come near me!"Alexandro stepped back. "But I just showered...""I don't care! I'm going to throw up!"Alexandro stepped back again. Two steps. Three steps. Now he stood near the door, staring at his wife with a confused expression. He didn't understand. Lucia had never complained about his smell before. Even back then, when he came home late at night smelling of sweat and cigarette smoke, Lucia still hugged him. But now, with a body still fragrant from

Lucia cried. Not a quiet, restrained cry, but a sobbing cry that came from deep within her chest. She ran out of the office, down the hallway, into the bedroom, and slammed the door. The sound of her crying was still faintly audible from behind the thick mahogany door.Alexandro stood in the office, the brush still in his hand, the paint palette still on the side table. The painting of the woman in the red dress was still half-finished. Lucia's face on the canvas was still vague, but her body posture was already clear. The body she once hated so much. The body that once made her feel ashamed. The body she once considered the source of all humiliation.Alexandro put down the brush. He sighed. He knew Lucia would be angry. He knew Lucia would be embarrassed. But he never expected his wife to react this strongly. He left the office, walked down the stairs, through the living room, and stopped in front of the bedroom door.He knocked softly."Lulu."No answer. Only the sound of crying was

Author's Pov. After Elena was taken to the guest room, the atmosphere in the large house slowly returned to calm. Isabella went back to the reading room, although her mind was still a mess. Lucia said goodnight to Alexandro and went upstairs to rest. Alexandro himself did not immediately follow his wife. He walked to his office on the second floor. The room was silent. The lights had not been turned on yet. Only the twilight light from the large glass window illuminated the room in a reddish-orange glow. Alexandro walked to the corner of the room, where a large canvas covered with a white cloth stood. He slowly removed the covering. On the canvas was a painting of a woman in a red dress. Unfinished. Her face was still vague, only rough lines forming her cheekbones, chin, and lips. But from her body posture, depicted with full curves, it was clear who the woman was. Lucia in her version before she started losing weight. With chubby cheeks, flabby arms, a rounded stomach. Alexan

Author's Pov.Alexandro came home earlier than usual. Today he decided to leave the office before sunset, something he rarely did.He wanted to hug his wife and feel again the happiness he had felt over the past few weeks. But as soon as he entered the living room, he was only greeted by Davina, who was arranging flowers in a vase on the table."Good evening, sir. Mrs. Lucia isn't home yet. She's still on campus.""Didn't I already tell her to take time off?""Mrs. Lucia said the final first semester exams are coming up soon, sir. She doesn't want to fall behind."Alexandro was silent. He walked to the sofa, sat down, and took off his suit. Davina immediately took the jacket and hung it on the back of the chair."I'll prepare some tea for you, sir.""No. I just want to rest.""Very well, sir."About an hour later, the sound of a car was heard. Alexandro opened his eyes. He heard the front door open, footsteps, and laughter. Not just one laughter, but two.Alexandro furrowed his brow.

Author's Pov.A few days later.Marco entered the office hurriedly. Tablet in his hand, face tense. Alexandro, who was sitting behind his mahogany desk, immediately looked at him."What?" asked Alexandro.Marco swallowed. "Sir, regarding that dark web site, Mrs. Lucia's name is gone."Alexandro blinked. "What do you mean?""Everything is gone. The listings under Mrs. Lucia's name, her photos, the price that was set, all of it. No trace. The site is still active with other targets, but Mrs. Lucia's name no longer appears anywhere."Alexandro stood up. He walked to the large glass window, his back to Marco."We've checked multiple times. I checked it myself. The cyber team did too. But there's nothing. Everything vanished overnight. No notification. No reason. No trace of who deleted it."Alexandro turned around. "Are you sure?""I'm sure, sir."Alexandro walked to his desk, grabbed his laptop, and opened the dark web site with fingers moving quickly. A string of random numbers and lett

Author's PovAlexandro stepped into his office that morning with a different stride. Marco, walking behind him, immediately sensed something unusual.Usually, his boss walked firmly, eyes straight ahead, paying no attention to anyone around him. But today, Alexandro walked more casually. He was even smiling.A female receptionist greeted him in the lobby."Good morning, Mr. De Luca."Alexandro stopped. He looked at the woman, then smiled."Good morning. Are you wearing a new dress? It's nice."The receptionist was shocked. Her mouth fell open in disbelief. Alexandro De Luca, the cold man who never greeted anyone, had just complimented her dress. She could only nod stiffly."Th-thank you, sir."Alexandro continued his walk to the elevator. In the elevator, a courier got in carrying a large cardboard box. The courier looked nervous, probably because it was his first time meeting the building's owner."G-good morning, sir."Alexandro looked at the courier. "Which courier company do you w

The priest began to recite the prayer in a steady voice that echoed throughout the church. I stood still beside Alexandro, my hands feeling stiff as I held the bouquet. The scent of lilies was too strong, almost making me dizzy."We are gathered here today to witness the marriage of Alexandro De Lu

I showed him everything I had learned from Mira.I sat on his lap, both arms wrapped around his neck. My breath was slow, rhythmic, exactly as Mira taught. "Breathing is the key," she said before. "Proper breathing can make a man lose control."I whispered in his ear. "Where do you want me to start

At nine fifty, I was already sitting in the living room, my heart pounding. The simple house dress I was wearing didn't feel like enough. I twisted the hem of my clothes and waited.Right at ten o'clock, Mira arrived.Today she looked different. Still beautiful, still graceful, but her clothes were
