Not what Caterina imagined. This time Marco returned there before noon. He brought a lot of food stock, then filled the refrigerator until it was full. He seemed a little awkward when he met Caterina because he couldn't stop thinking about what they had done last night.

Marco's thoughts started to run wild. Seeing Caterina's response, he began to think that Caterina loved him too. He began to hope for a happy ending for them. If no one came to disturb him, he was sure he could melt Caterina's heart and invite her to live together.

“You just relax here. I will prepare a lunch menu. I want to make a surprise. Just don't go into the kitchen until I call you." Caterina said excitedly. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at Marco and his father in the front room. The two men began trying to build a good relationship by drinking coffee together while watching television.

"Okay." Both of them couldn't wait for the lunch menu that Caterina would provide. Both of them seemed equally enthusiastic.

    Leonardo had no choice but to threaten. Because he knew Dante wouldn't want to come back if he didn't act very hard.Dante turned to look at the muzzle of the rifle. He smiled faintly, there was no fear showing in the slightest on his face. He looked calm, because he was used to being threatened with a gun."You remember, I was the one who taught you how to hold a gun." Dante remembers memories of the past.

    In the dark of night, Leonardo quickly took Dante to his base, every second was precious, making the hot-blooded man worried about Dante's safety. On the way to headquarters, Leonardo looked worried and held back his anger. The man felt he had to make sure Dante was okay even though fresh blood was flowing all over Dante's body. Leonardo wiped the blood from the corner of his lips. In fact, the wound he felt was no more painful than seeing Caterina with her enemy. For some reason, the man was angry when he saw Caterina with Marco. His chest felt hot, but the man was still reluctant to admit his feelings. He tried to deny that the feelings that arose were jealousy because he had fallen in love with Caterina.“Ben, call the most skilled doctor in the country and have him treat Dante. I don't want to know how, what is clear is that Dante must be saved!"“Okay, sir. I happen to know several of Dante's colleagues who are quite professional. I will contact him.”"Good.

    "I can't believe you've been living with a man like Leo all this time. Your father, who had clearly served him for years, could be killed so easily. He really is a devil!” Marco comes with a bottle of yogurt for Caterina.“He shot your father in the head because he failed to find you. He is a complete psychopath.”Caterina, who was sitting pensively thinking about Dante, suddenly gasped and wiped her tears. The anger and revenge burning in her heart made Caterina shed tears. His hatred for Leonardo was now at its peak. There was no more apology he would give to that man. The man she once loved so much has now turned into the person she hates the most. Time changes it very quickly. Caterina felt annoyed because she once loved someone like Leonardo.“Don't worry, Kate. I'm on your side now. We must unite to avenge each other against Leo. If we unite, wouldn't we be able to kill him easily?”“You thought it would be that easy? Even his men alone are almost fifty percent of the people in

  • Love Under Mafia Rule   52. Rossie Anger

    Rossie started to get suspicious because recently Marco rarely came home to the mansion. The luxurious mansion that was used as his headquarters and residence with Rossie and his other subordinates looked very different without Marco's presence. Rossie, who was busy taking care of Gabriel, soon realized that her older brother had not been home for a long time. After leaving Gabriel's room, Rossie approached Marco's study and met her brother's right hand.“Why doesn't Marco ever go home to the mansion? Does he have work out of town?" Rossie asked.She asked because she already had a bad feeling. However, in order to break this feeling, Rossie finally asked Marco's men who were at the mansion. To be more sure, Rossie also asked Marco's right hand directly."Mr. Marco no longer has work outside the city. However, it seems like he really has other work that needs to be done quickly.”"Fast? He hasn't been home for two weeks. Are you sure he's okay? I'm starting to worry.” Rossie presses f

    Marco had just landed his hips on the sofa when Rossie approached with searching eyes. Rossie, who had been waiting for Marco to return to the mansion, couldn't hold back his curiosity any longer. He immediately mentioned Caterina's presence at headquarters.“I thought you would never return to the mansion again. Wouldn't living with Kate be more fun?”Rossie folded her arms across her chest. Her eyes widened and her lips smiled sarcastically when she saw Marco's face, which looked surprised by her question. Now everything is clear. The reason why Marco rarely comes home to the mansion is Caterina. Rossie really wanted to know what was going on in Marco's mind, why the man was protecting Caterina and not killing her."What are you talking about?" Marco tried to avoid eye contact with Rossie. However, Rossie immediately caught her brother's gaze.“Don't act like you don't know. I know that you hid Rossie in another base. Even I didn't know that you had a base there." It seems like you r

    Rossie secretly entered Marco's study when the man was not there. He snuck over and looked for her older brother's schedule on a pile of folders. That's where Rossie finally found out that next weekend Marco would be busy with sending drug and weapons packages.Rossie deliberately looked for the right time to come to the base where Caterina was hidden. When Marco wasn't around, she could easily find Caterina and kill her. Rosie's hatred for Caterina is at the limit. She felt that the woman deserved to die because she had taken away part of her happiness.Gabriel, the person he has been after for a long time, turns out to like Caterina. This made Rossie angry. She did whatever it took to be the number one person in Gabriel's life. However, Caterina's presence destroys everything.

    Marco looked at Caterina for a moment, then looked back at Rossie and helped his sister to get up. With so many bruises and several wounds on Rossie's body, the girl cornered Caterina even more. However, seeing Marco's eyes that had no anger in them, Caterina was reluctant to say anything else. She was silent and did not deny what Rossie said."Enough. Rossie, we have to go home.” Marco supported his younger brother's body. Even in his weak condition, Rossie could still glare and grin sarcastically at Caterina.Even though he didn't believe Rossie, he just wanted to calm his sister down. He asked Caterina to go back to her room to rest, while he took Rossie home to the mansion for treatment."The gun is already in your hands, but why not use it to kill that bastard woman?" asked Rossie when she was taken into the car.On the way home, Marco didn't talk to Rossie at all. He knew his sister was in pain, so he didn't want to blame her too much. Although on the other hand he was quite hap

    “Rossie said you liked me. And she doesn't like that. Is it true? You like me?"Marco was stunned for a moment when he heard Caterina's question, then he laughed while looking away. Unbeknownst to Caterina, the man swallowed heavily. He didn't expect that Rossie would say that to Caterina.Marco tried to act as relaxed and calm as possible in front of Caterina. He didn't want to make his feelings too obvious. If Rossie could only find out, even though she had covered it up, that doesn't mean Caterina didn't realize it too. For this reason, he felt he had to be careful in giving answers.“I also find it unreasonable. Remembering that all this time I have always considered you a good friend. However, I can't get rid of that curiosity and want to hear a direct answer from you," Caterina continued.“Don't listen to her, Kate. Rossie was just talking casually. You're right, we're just good friends. How could I like you? I think of you as a little brother, just like Rossie.""So, it's not t

    This morning the air felt colder than usual. Caterina put a thick jacket on Shopia's body. While in the distance, Luka came with several cups of hot coffee."For you." Luka handed the coffee cups to Leonardo and Alex.Leonardo accepted the coffee with a smile, while the corner of his eye looked at Caterina, who was busy with Shopia. He was happy to see Caterina happy. However, his heart sank when he realized that Caterina's happiness was not him. He had to let the woman he loved live with another man.Sophia turned to look at Leonardo. He smiled broadly and waved goodbye. The only reason Caterina and Luka met Leonardo this morning was because Shopia was related to him. Sophia should at least recognize her uncle.Leonardo waved back at the little girl. Just like Alex said, Leonardo has changed a lot from before.Caterina led Shopia towards the group of men."Honey, give the gift to Uncle Leo." Caterina said softly.Sophia nodded.Leonardo stared at Caterina without blinking. After six

    "Kate, I want to talk seriously." Alex said with a serious look on his face. He rarely acted like this. If he said something serious, it meant it was serious."Honey, you go to your room first." Caterina said very softly.Shopia, who was lying on Caterina's thigh, got up and went to her room. That child was really very obedient."What do you want to talk about?" Caterina looked up, looking at the man with a questioning look."Leo will be out of prison tomorrow morning." The man gave information. It wasn't that he wanted to scare Caterina, but he had something else to say."You can rest assured, Kate will be safe as long as I'm with her. There's nothing to be afraid of; he already has a criminal history. If he does the same thing a second time, the punishment will be more severe than before." Luka said firmly. It was as if he was emphasizing that no one could hurt Caterina as long as he existed. Even if that person was Leonardo.This was the sixth month of their marriage, just as Leona

    Caterina stood in front of the mirror. She looked at her reflection there. The beautiful face looked even more beautiful after being polished with makeup. She took a deep breath, then let it out slowly. She tried to convince herself that this was the right move. She did not want to regret her decision to marry Luka. Here she had found so much love. This was the place where she could get what she wanted.There was a knock on the door from outside.Caterina invited him to enter. Dante stepped inside with tears in his eyes. He was touched when he saw his daughter in a wedding dress. He could finally see Caterina get married.As they had hoped, the world Luka offered was far from the hustle and bustle of crime. There were no enemies, no gunshots, no danger lurking every time they left the house.It was the kind of peaceful life that Dante and Caterina had always wanted. They had intended to escape to Sydney and start a new life in the city. However, they never imagined that they would mee

    Leonardo looked at Dante very seriously. His eyes showed as if he was asking what was wrong. He wanted to know what Caterina thought of him."She doesn't hate you like you think. Kate is very forgiving." Dante said with affirmation.Leonardo was silent. In fact, even though Caterina had forgiven him, he still had no chance to get back Caterina's heart. His love story had ended there."Her wedding to Luka is in a fortnight. Come if you can." Dante informed.It seemed that the man's affection for Leonardo ran deep. Of course he did. He had taken care of the man since he was a baby until he grew up like this. The time he spent with Leonardo was far more than the time he had spent with his own daughter. Naturally, he felt that his bond with Leonardo could not be broken. Moreover, Leonardo has realized and regretted everything he has ever done."I'm not sure I can attend her wedding. I can't bear to see her married to another man." Leonardo said with a trembling voice. His eyes looked tear

    The party finished just before 1am. Caterina felt very tired and sleepy. She was used to staying up late and sleeping early in the morning; it was just that she was not used to the crowded atmosphere and formal events like this. Interacting with so many people made her feel very tired. Her energy was drained very much. At this rate, she would need a few days of rest to fully recharge his energy."I'm sorry you had to keep me company until midnight." Luka felt guilty. He felt bad. He remembered when Leonardo had brought Caterina to an important event and asked her to go home first because Caterina felt uncomfortable. However, he could not do what Leonardo did, because Caterina was one of the important people in this event. It would not be good for her to leave the party in the middle of it.Caterina smiled broadly. It seemed that she had to get used to it. Because, in the future, she will attend more often in this way."It is I who apologizes for not being able to accompany you to the

    "You go in first; I want to see my father first." Luka said as they arrived at an upscale hotel tonight. As Adam had said last week, tonight he would be holding an official party to announce the company's new leader, as well as to tell the public that Caterina was Luka's future wife.There will be a lot of media coming to broadcast the news. Caterina's name will become famous after this. She will be the daughter-in-law of the richest man in Sydney. Her profile and background will be explored by many people. If they knew that Caterina came from the dark world of the mafia, they would probably look down on her. She would be labeled as a bad person.Caterina nodded gently, she released her embrace on Luka's arm, and let him leave.Caterina didn't really like parties and crowds like this, so she felt very uncomfortable. She stepped very clumsily into the building where the party would be held.However, Caterina's steps were halted as the doorman stopped her. They asked her to show her inv

    "Daddy is home." Caterina told Shopia that Luka had arrived at the villa. They started to get ready for the surprise. Caterina brought a big cake, while Shopia brought a small cake because she was not strong enough to carry a big cake.Today was Luka's 34th birthday. Caterina and the others had prepared a small party at home. They were celebrating with family only. No invitations, no friends. There were Alex and Dante, who joined in the festivities. Adam had only been notified a few minutes ago.They stood at the door. Waiting with their hearts racing. This was the first time Caterina had celebrated a birthday for Luka. She didn't know how he would respond. She didn't want to expect more, because she had been disappointed so many times. When she celebrated Leonardo's birthday, he didn't want to look at her at all. Let alone accepting her gift, he even threw the cake that Caterina offered.Having been hurt too many times, Catarina no longer had high hopes. Even though she knew the woun

    "Why are you here?" Adam looked at his son with a probing look."Where else am I supposed to be? I need to go to the office to check my work after my two-week. There are a lot of files that I need to go through and sign off on. There's already a lot of cooperation pending. It's time for me to get back to work." Luka answered honestly."The work can be taken care of by others. There are many people who can be entrusted to take care of everything. You shouldn't have left Kate. She's still recovering." Adam seemed very concerned. Even now he was starting to be overprotective of his future daughter-in-law.Luka smiled a little. He hadn't expected that to be the reason his father had asked him about why he was at the office this morning. He thought it was something else; it was because he left Caterina for work."She's fine. She asked me to come back to work. I have Alex and Dante looking after her at home." Luka explained."That's good that you are. You check all these files and give them

    Hearing Caterina's words, Dante felt very happy. He had never thought that his daughter would give him a chance. The man smiled broadly. He approached Caterina, then hugged her very tightly."I know I've made many mistakes. This time I promise I will make up for all my past mistakes. I will be a good father to you." Dante said with great tenderness.Caterina nodded; she returned her father's hug gently.Luka looked happy to see that Caterina and her father's relationship had improved. His dream of improving their relationship had finally come true. At least that was all he wanted for now."No one needs me to take you to the airport, right?" Alex asked reassuringly after he saw Caterina and Dante hugging each other. The two had made up."I guess," Dante replied as he released her hug."Daddy!" Shopia ran to her father. She clung to her father's thighs. In her arms was the doll she got from Adam. She still thought it was from Caterina."Who is she?" Dante asked as he looked at his daugh
