  • I Married His Rival, and the Mafia Don Lost His Mind   Chapter 9

    After marrying Alessandro, I quickly settled into my new role.Ten years as Corleone's Donna had trained me in managing Mafia operations and navigating between rival factions. I was used to the complexity.Corleone's operations had been top-tier, and I had handled them with ease, never once feeling overwhelmed.But stepping into Alessandro's world showed me what a real empire looked like.He controlled the entire Naples Mafia. His territory, his reach, his underground enterprises were easily ten times the scale of Corleone's.The business was impossibly intricate, spanning dozens of sectors across international markets, each one deeply interconnected.On top of that, Alessandro had handled the transfer of all the underground assets allocated to me in the divorce agreement with Corleone right at the start of our marriage.Old holdings and new ones piled together, stretching me thin.For the first month of our marriage, I spent nearly every night in the study, buried in stacks of documen

    Under a heavy night sky, Corleone dragged himself back to the silent, empty estate, every step agony on his shattered leg.The moment he reached the front steps, a slender figure rushed to meet him. Bianca, who had been waiting.She took one look at the state of him and panicked."Your leg! What happened? Who did this to you?"Corleone kept moving, his expression glacial."It doesn't matter."Bianca took his arm carefully, her voice gentle."She still won't come back? It's okay. I won't leave you."Before she could put on more of an act, Corleone pulled his arm free.His throat was raw, his voice shattered."She's not coming back."Bianca's eyes went wide."What?""Donatella isn't coming back." Corleone repeated it. "She married Alessandro. I pushed her away myself."That single sentence sent barely concealed joy flooding through Bianca's eyes.She swallowed her elation and put on a face of sympathy."I see... Well, since she belongs to someone else now, let me take her place and take

    Corleone stood perfectly still, the thin sheet of paper pinched between his fingers.The yellowed paper, marked by time, dragged his thoughts back ten years.Back then he had nothing. Ambitious but without a foundation, his proposal had been met with fierce opposition from my entire family.My father, Giovanni Valenti, was a shrewd judge of character. He had seen through Corleone: too much ambition, no capacity for lasting devotion. In the end, he would betray me.To silence every objection and to give me absolute security, the young Corleone had written this divorce agreement himself.If he ever did anything to wrong me, the marriage would be void on the spot. I could walk away at any time, free and clear.He would leave with nothing. Every share, every asset under his name would transfer to me automatically. No one could contest it.He had invited my father and several neutral, highly respected Elders to witness and endorse it, completing the formal notarization.It was this solemn,

    Dong. Dong. Dong.Each strike seemed to land directly on his nerves.Most of the alcohol haze lifted at once. He stood frozen, staring at the empty room, chest tight as if a fist had closed around his heart.He stumbled around and grabbed a servant in the hallway."Where is the Donna? Where is Donatella?!"The servant shook with terror, too frightened to look up."Sir, ever since you ordered the Donna confined to the attic, none of us dared go near her. We never saw her come downstairs, and we never saw her leave."Corleone's mind buzzed. In his panic, he forced himself to think.He remembered clearly that Donatella had cut ties with her family ten years ago. She had nowhere to go.Full-blown panic set in. He fumbled for his phone, fingers trembling, and dialed my number.The call rang until it went to voicemail.He called again and again, but I never picked up.Just when his composure had completely shattered, light footsteps sounded behind him.A pair of slender hands reached from be

    That day, Alessandro Moretti, the supreme leader of the Naples Mafia, suddenly announced a grand wedding. The news sent shockwaves through every circle.Alessandro sat at the very top of the region's power structure, known for being cold, ruthless, and merciless.For decades, every faction had sent people to monitor his every move. Every Family and every Don constantly probed for weaknesses. Yet in all that time, no woman had ever gotten close to him.Everyone assumed he had no interest in love and would remain alone for life.Corleone was equally stunned and baffled.He summoned several executives who had dealings with Alessandro and deployed his network of informants across the city, all trying to uncover the identity of the bride.But every operative he sent out either vanished without a trace or came back with nothing.No one knew when Alessandro had fallen in love, and not a single detail about his bride could be found.After days without any word from me, a nameless unease stirre

    After the gala that night, Corleone didn't come home.I sat by the bedroom window, listening to the servants' hushed gossip outside the door.They whispered that Corleone had booked the entire riverside promenade and thrown Bianca a lavish birthday celebration.He had mobilized every available hand to fill the venue overnight with Bianca's favorite white roses.Fireworks had lit up the sky for a full thirty minutes, the spectacle sending ripples through the entire upper echelon.More absurdly, he had canceled the monthly Mafia council meeting for her birthday party.Several faction leaders came knocking in outrage, and I had to step in to calm them down.Corleone had always been disciplined and held himself to the highest standards.Even I never dared to interfere with his work schedule.But now, he was openly flaunting his favoritism toward Bianca for all the world to see.The next afternoon, as dusk approached, Corleone finally came back.I was already waiting for him in the estate's
