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. Luci

  • Contracted to the Mafia: A Plus-Size Bride   Chapter 486

    After dropping Silvia off at home, Marco didn't immediately return to his own house. He drove his car without any clear destination, his mind drifting back to the evening he had just spent with Silvia.Silvia laughed, the way her eyes sparkled when she talked about her students, and how she seemed nervous yet still tried to be herself.Marco finally parked his car on the side of the road, then took out his phone. He pressed a number he had memorized by heart."Mr. Alexandro."The voice on the other end of the line was heavy, typical of someone who had just woken up."Marco? Do you know what time it is?""Sorry to bother you, but I need your advice.""Advice? About what?"Marco let out a long breath. "About a gift for a woman."The pause returned, this time longer. Then, Alexandro laughed. That laugh was rarely heard, and Marco knew he had awakened something interesting in his boss."A woman? Marco, you? I don't believe it.""This isn't a joke, Sir. I'm serious."Alexandro stopped laug

    "Good. I'll pick you up tomorrow at seven."Silvia nodded, still unable to believe what had just happened. Marco opened the car door for her, and Silvia got in with her heart pounding. The whole ride home, neither spoke. Silvia stared out the window, trying to calm her thoughts, while Marco focused on the road that was growing dark.The car finally stopped in front of a small apartment on the outskirts of the city. Silvia lived on the third floor, a simple unit with a balcony overlooking a small park. She opened the car door, then turned to Marco."Thanks for the ride," she said."You're welcome. See you tomorrow."Silvia nodded, then walked toward her apartment door. She didn't look back, but she could feel Marco's eyes following her until she disappeared inside the building.As soon as she entered her apartment, Silvia leaned her back against the door and let out a long breath. She covered her face with both hands, trying to make sense of what had just happened."Marco asked me to d

    Alexandro approached Marco. "Find a private tutor for the next few weeks for Leo."Marco raised an eyebrow. "A tutor? What for?""Leo will be suspended but I don't want him to fall behind on his lessons. Besides, I want him to keep studying even at home. Find someone competent, someone who can teach him various subjects.""Alright, I'll take care of it tomorrow."Marco then walked to his office on the second floor. He sat in his work chair, opened his laptop, and started searching for suitable private tutor candidates.He sent several emails, contacted education agencies, and within an hour, he already had a list of names to interview tomorrow.The next morning, Marco was already sitting in the small meeting room on the first floor of the De Luca mansion. The wooden table in front of him was covered with application files, CVs, and recommendation letters. He wore a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, his hair neatly combed, and his eyes focused on every detail.One b

    Lucia shut her mouth, though her eyes still held protest.The principal tried to mediate."Mr. De Luca, I appreciate that you want to protect your family. But this school has rules. Leo must face consequences. He will be suspended for three days.""Fine," Alexandro said without hesitation. "Is there anything else?"The principal looked at him, then at Lucia who was still standing with a tense face."No, Sir. We will contact you for the hospital bill details."Alexandro nodded, then turned to Leo. "Come on, let's go home."Leo stood up, looked at his mother with eyes asking for understanding, then followed his father out of the room.In the car, Alexandro drove with his gaze straight ahead, his hands gripping the steering wheel tightly. Lucia sat in the passenger seat, her body rigid, and Leo sat in the back, his eyes staring out the window."Mommy still mad?" Leo asked.Lucia turned. "I'm not mad, Leo. I'm just confused.""Confused about what?""Because what you did was wrong, but you

    Alexandro and Lucia arrived at the new building project site on the outskirts of town. Construction dust still hung in the air, mixed with the sound of drills and hammers.A foreman greeted them with a hard hat in hand."Mr. De Luca, Ma'am, please come in. We've prepared everything for the presentation," the foreman said.Alexandro gave a brief nod, his hand holding Lucia's as they stepped into the still open building frame. Bare concrete, towering steel, and sunlight piercing through gaps in the walls created strange shadow patterns on the floor."So this is going to be the hospital?" Lucia asked."Yes, Ma'am. As per Mr. De Luca's request, we'll build a hospital with a capacity of two hundred beds, modern operating rooms, and a special wing for children," the foreman explained while pointing to the blueprint spread out on a folding table.Alexandro let go of Lucia's hand and walked closer to the blueprint. His eyes traced every line, every room, every detail he had designed with the

    The envelope still felt heavy in Marco's hand, even after he had read it several times on quiet nights. Cassian's letter wasn't long, but every word felt like a stone thrown into a calm pond—disturbing, unsettling, and leaving ripples he couldn't erase.Marco kept the letter in his wallet, folded neatly among photos of Nora, Luca, and Davina.Three weeks after Alicia's funeral, Marco decided to meet Cassian. The address was written on the back of the letter a small town on Italy's western coast, far from Rome.Marco didn't tell Alexandro. He didn't tell anyone. He just packed a small bag, kissed the foreheads of Leo, Aurora, and Loris while they slept, and left before dawn.The journey took almost six hours. Marco drove calmly, passing through winding roads that cut through the Tuscan hills, through small villages still asleep, and finally arriving at a quiet coastal town—white-painted houses with terracotta roofs, cobblestone streets sloping toward the sea, and the scent of salt mixe
