Chapter 11

作者: KarenW
Marco’s POV

How had things turned out like this? How could Adrianna not say a word to me?

She must have known all along—known she was Don Conti’s daughter. And still, she never told me.

Was she watching me make a fool of myself this whole time? Laughing inside when I said I needed Bianca close to secure the Conti’s backing?

All this time… she was the real one. And she let me believe otherwise.

The anger I’d held in all night surged up at once. I strode to the bar and swept everything off the cou

  • His Substitute Turned Into the Mafia Queen   Chapter 14

    Adrianna’s POVEarly morning meetings. Endless flights. Smoke-filled rooms where I argued with men twice my age—powerful, experienced, unyielding.I never felt tired. Because for the first time, I felt… right, like I had finally stepped into something that had always been mine.Marco’s empire had been built with my help. So I knew exactly how to take it apart.Papa’s investment in his casino? I pulled it back first.Then I went further. Every deal Marco chased—I got there first. Every partner he tried to secure—I cut him off. Every contract he wanted—I signed before he could.What he planned to buy—I bought. What he tried to build—I dismantled.Money. Connections. Influence. I used all of it.His casino was already struggling—crippled by public backlash and rumors.I just made sure it collapsed faster.Without me, Marco had no strategy left, no structure. All he could do was lash out—or come crawling back to me.And neither would save him.…For a while, I thought things might finally

    Adrianna’s POVWhen another message from Marco came through, I didn’t even look at it. I blocked his new number and deleted the message.I wasn’t wasting another second on him. And there was nothing he could say or do to win me back.“We’re here,” Evan said from the driver’s seat as he pulled up.He had brought me back to our old college.We got off the car and walked across the campus together, the quiet familiar in a way I hadn’t expected.Evan smiled lightly. “When I first heard about the arranged marriage between the Conti and the Knox, I hated it. I’ve never been someone who follows rules—especially not ones that tie my future to another family for profit.”He glanced at me. “I thought it was just something I had to endure.”A soft light fell across his shoulders as he turned to face me, the glow catching in his eyes. “Until I found out… my real fiancée was you.”His smile softened. “And suddenly, it didn’t feel like a sacrifice anymore.”I held his gaze, my heartbeat picking up d

    Marco’s POVBut how could she not see through my act and understand? Everything I did… it was for the future, for us. She was the real one I loved.Not Bianca. Never Bianca.So why couldn’t she tell me the truth about her identity? Why can’t she stay for me? Wait for me?We could have had everything.But now…Everything had gone wrong.To everyone else, I was nothing but a fool. The man who threw away the real heiress… for a fake.“What the hell am I doing…?”How did I end up here? Why did I choose the wrong side when it mattered most? Why did I push Adrianna away—the only one who ever stayed?Was it pride? Ambition? Or just my need to prove something to Bianca… something that never mattered?I could come up with a thousand excuses. But none of them would change the truth.I neglected Anna. I broke her trust.I did this to myself.Then—an idea popped out in my mind. I sat up straighter.This wasn’t over. No. Adrianna was just angry. That was all.And now… Bianca was out of the picture

  • His Substitute Turned Into the Mafia Queen   Chapter 10

    Adrianna’s POVMarco had always been the most handsome man I’d known—but standing next to this man, he faded, completely.I searched my memory, but nothing came up. I didn’t remember seeing him before. Not in the yard. Not anywhere.But the way he spoke…It felt like he knew me.Marco’s expression darkened. “Back off. I’m talking to my girlfriend. This has nothing to do with you.”The man didn’t stop. If anything, he smiled—and stepped closer. Then he extended his hand toward me. “You don’t look like you’re enjoying his company,” he said calmly. “How about a dance with me?”Honestly? Anyone was better than Marco.I didn’t hesitate. I placed my hand in his. “I’d love to.”He gently pulled me away.Marco’s face darkened instantly. “Who the hell are you—”He stepped forward, trying to grab me back.The man moved smoothly, stepping between us. “Oh—my mistake,” he said lightly. “I forgot to introduce myself.”His gaze flicked to Marco, then back to me.“Evan Knox.” A small pause. “A family

  • His Substitute Turned Into the Mafia Queen   Chapter 9

    Adrianna’s POVBianca collapsed to the floor, crying out in pain. But she didn’t beg.She knew. The moment Papa handed me the gun… she had already lost him. He was ready to let her go.And I—I had been merciful. Because I didn’t aim for her heart.Even so, the way she looked at me—I knew she wanted me dead. Maybe she was regretting that she hadn’t let those masked men finish the job.“Bianca,” Papa said coldly, “you will leave my manor this instant. My daughter was generous enough to spare you—but I’m not. Disappear from my sight. If I ever catch you lurking around again, I won’t be this merciful. I’ll deal with you myself.”His gaze swept across the room, voice turning harder. “From today on, anyone who helps her—friend or family—will no longer stand with me.”Then he turned to me, his tone softening. “Anna… my precious daughter. You’ve suffered enough.”Bianca was still on the floor, unable to stand.No one moved to help her, not even Marco. If anything, he took a step back—creating
