Chapter 7

作者: Apis Fortis
When I returned to the Calvetti estate, my mother was waiting for me.

She took one look at my wounds and had a doctor come dress them again. "Who did this?"

"The Taylor family. And the Ferguson family."

She didn't ask anything else. She just turned and gave an order. "Handle it."

I knew that once my mother made a move, those two families would never know another peaceful day.

Once I'd stabilized, I took the reins of the Calvetti family business again and cut off every deal we had going with the

  • I Quit His Love Tests and Returned to My Mafia Family   Chapter 9

    The next year, Roy and I got married.Our wedding of the century lit up Times Square's giant screens for 15 straight days.Before our honeymoon, I received a wedding gift with no name attached.I opened the box. Inside lay the pendant engraved with the Calvetti crest.I looked at it once and handed it to the butler. "Get rid of it."What belongs to the past should stay there.Meanwhile, at another cocktail party, Melville was making the rounds with members of the Taylor family, trying to drum up business.People used to compete for the chance to raise a glass with him. Now he was the one approaching people he used to look down on, drink in hand and an ingratiating smile on his face.Those who accepted a drink gave him only a cold look. One person even pushed the glass back. "Sorry, Mr. Taylor. I'll have to pass."A few muffled laughs rippled through the room. Face rigid, Melville had no choice but to swallow his pride and keep working the room.Someone brought up my wedding."Ms. Calve

    Melville didn't give up.He tried everything he could think of to arrange chance encounters with me: exclusive dinner parties, the racetrack, private auctions. If he knew I would be there, he always arrived early.The last time, he bought a gemstone necklace worth a fortune at an auction and brought it to me himself.I gave it one glance, then dropped it in the trash right in front of him.Dewey stood off to the side and gave him a half-amused look. "You think junk like this is good enough for Ms. Calvetti?"Word spread fast in our circles.When Cecilia heard, she completely lost it.She brought in reporters from several media outlets, then went live and sobbed into the camera that I had stolen her fiancé. She also released an edited video from the auction, cutting out every shot of me throwing the necklace away.But the livestream had barely started when it suddenly cut out.Every nasty post about me vanished just as fast.What Cecilia didn't realize was that by coming after me in pub

"Handle it."I knew that once my mother made a move, those two families would never know another peaceful day.Once I'd stabilized, I took the reins of the Calvetti family business again and cut off every deal we had going with the Taylor family.Melville's company had grown fast over the last few years, and I had quietly arranged for my family to support several of its key projects.I had secured the funding, distribution channels, connections, and even several major partners for him.Now I was taking every bit of it back.On the third day, a guard came to report that Melville had been waiting outside the gate for six hours.My mother gave me a sharp look. "Do you want to see him?""No."Something like approval flickered

    The moment he pushed open the door, he froze. The room was empty.None of Serafina's things were by the bed. All of her clothes were gone from the closet.Everything she usually left lying around on the table had been cleared away.All that was left was the itinerary they'd spent three months planning. The first item was their planned kiss beneath the northern lights, with Serafina in her wedding dress.Now a large X, drawn in red marker, slashed across the itinerary.The color drained from Melville's face. He ran into the bedroom, then the bathroom. He even checked the balcony.She wasn't anywhere.All his strength seemed to leave him. He staggered back, slammed into the corner of the table, and collapsed on the floor. "Serafina, where did you go?"He immediately sent his men to track her down, then went back to the hospital to comb through the security footage himself.The footage showed Serafina leaving the hospital and getting into a black Rolls-Royce. His only clue was a silver th

    None of his messages got a reply, and Serafina didn't answer his calls.Melville shot to his feet and started pacing the room.He kept telling himself Serafina only needed some time alone to cool down and might come back in a little while.That reassurance lasted only until the shouts of children below drifted in through the window.He stopped dead.This wasn't the estate. The walls here weren't that thick.Cecilia had raised her voice on purpose, and Serafina must have heard every word, including the part about their arranged marriage.A chill shot up Melville's spine.He grabbed his phone and ran to the nurses' station. "Where's Serafina?"The nurse glanced at him and handed him a note. "She's been discharged. She asked me to give you this."Melville took the note. It read, "Melville, we're done."The note went on. "You were already promised to someone else, yet you kept pursuing me. You disgust me."His breath caught.She knew everything.The color drained from his face, and his fin

    The harsh smell of hospital disinfectant woke me.Melville had kept watch beside my bed. The moment I opened my eyes, he pulled me into a tight embrace. "Thank God you're awake. The doctor said your heart is on the right side of your chest, so you're out of danger."He looked stricken with guilt. "I'm sorry. I never thought Cecilia would go that far. I regret it..."I cut him off. "Shoot her with a crossbow too, and I'll forgive you."Melville froze for a second, then flatly refused. "Babe, we've already settled on compensation. The Ferguson family agreed to hand over a month's worth of its Manhattan orders."He kissed my forehead. "Leave it all to me, okay? No more fighting. I owe you big for this one. I've wanted those orders for a long time. Whatever reward you want, it's yours. As long as you behave." My hands curled into fists. My chest ached.To him, my brush with death was just a bargaining chip, a way to squeeze out more profit.Once again, Melville had put profit before me.An
