From Hidden Wife to His Worst Nightmare Chapter 9
Alina’s POV“Alina, I— It was a misunderstanding. I never meant to—”“Let me guess,” I cut in smoothly. “You finally realized you were wrong. That you believed the wrong person. That you hurt me over something you imagined—and now you feel regret?”He froze.“Dominic told me everything,” he said hoarsely. “I checked the photo again. It was fake. Nerissa—she set it up.”I wasn’t surprised. I had suspected it all along.“Look at you now, Jason,” I said quietly, my gaze sweeping over him. “I can barely recognize you. Are you still the face of the Vale… or just a man who can’t handle losing?”A ripple of laughter moved through the crowd.He flinched. The old Jason would have lashed out, demanded silence. This one only lowered his head.“I deserve this,” he murmured. “I—”“Yes, you do,” I said sharply. “But that’s not even close to enough. Do you want me to list everything you’ve done?”He looked up at me, desperation clear in his eyes. “You can do anything to me. Just… stop being angry. I

Alina’s POVI gave birth to a beautiful baby girl.I named her Bree.She became the light in my life—the kind that softened everything just by existing. No one could look at her without smiling.Strangely, she rarely cried. She mostly giggled… especially when Eddie held her.She adored him.And why wouldn’t she? Eddie was the best. He fed her, changed her, carried her around the house like she was the most precious thing in the world.As for me—when Eddie asked what I wanted to do after giving birth, aside from spending time with Bree, I told him I wanted to learn everything my mother once handled.After everything with Jason, I needed to feel capable. In control.Eddie began easing me into the business, and slowly, my days found a rhythm.He would take care of Bree while I worked in the home office—learning contracts, sitting through meetings, and understanding the world my mother used to live in.Then at night, I would step away, and the three of us would spend the rest of the evenin

Jason’s POVIt had been over a year since Alina disappeared.At first, I was furious. I never thought she had it in her to leave. What gave her the right to vanish like that—before she even faced the consequences of what she had done to me? She was the one who was wrong. She owed me. She owed me the same pain—the same betrayal. The feeling of being replaced, humiliated.But anger didn’t last. I started to worry about what might have happened to Alina. Meanwhile, her father barely seemed concerned. “Alina’s always been like this. When things don’t go her way, she disappears. Give her time—she’ll come back.”I believed him for a while. I even called my men back, thinking maybe pushing too hard would only make her stay away longer.But weeks turned into months, and Alina never came back.I sent my men out again, and this time, some of them found traces—flight records, scattered leads. Italy. Spain.And then— One of them returned with news.Alina was dead.Nerissa stood beside me, heari

Alina’s POVMy fingers curled slightly. “So what happened?”He looked at me, steady and certain. “Your mother happened.”The words settled deep.Edison let out a soft breath. “My father used to get emotional whenever he talked about that night. He said your mother was young—but she walked into a room full of armed mafia heads alone.”I could almost picture it.“She didn’t hesitate,” he continued. “She told them if killing innocent people was their solution, then she would never do business with any of them again. She said she valued the truth more than a few million worth of wine and weapons.”Edison’s gaze drifted for a moment, “No one expected her to say that,” he continued quietly. “Not in that room, in front of men who were used to being feared.”The wind moved gently through the garden.“But your mother didn’t back down.” He let out a breath. “She demanded proof. Said if they were going to spill blood, they should at least know whose blood they were spilling.”My fingers tightened

Alina’s POVIt wasn’t until the car merged onto the highway that it truly sank in.I was leaving the place I had grown up in.My hand drifted to my stomach, resting there gently. It would be all worth it.I lifted my head, my voice quiet but steady. “Excuse me… when can I meet Mr. Vallo?”Amos Vallo was the man I had called. At my mother’s funeral, he had already looked to be in his fifties. So I hadn’t expected him to be here now.The driver met my eyes in the rearview mirror. “Miss Dacosta… I’m his son. Edison. My father passed away two years ago.”My breath caught. “Then… I was speaking to you on the phone?”“Yes.” He hesitated for a moment. “Before he died, my father told me everything about you and your mother. He made me promise that if you ever called, I would do whatever it took to help you.”I didn’t know what to say. What had my mother done… to leave such a deep impression?“He was so kind at the funeral,” I said softly. “And when he gave me his card… he said I could call any

Alina’s POVJason came by the next day, saying they were hosting a final party at the casino tonight. I hadn’t planned to go, but then Jason mentioned my mother have left something in her office.He and Nerissa went ahead together. I took a taxi and went alone.The casino felt different the moment I stepped inside.It was no longer open for business. The lights were dimmer, the air quieter—like it already belonged to someone else.I was about to head toward my mother’s office when a waiter approached me.“The Don asked me to take you to the auction.”“I don’t need that,” I said calmly. “I just came to collect my mother’s things. I’m her daughter.”The waiter hesitated, then lowered his voice. “Miss… the Don specifically asked for you. He won’t be pleased if I return alone.”In the end, I followed him.I would just find another chance to go to my mother’s office later.The waiter led me to the top floor—the ballroom.Nerissa was already there, clinging to Jason like she always did, whis
