MAFIA'S REBORN WIFE Ā Ā Ā Chapter 25 Kidnapped
It felt like a trap. Like I was being ledā¦ or watched. My eyes darted to the windows, heart thudding faster. I stood slowly, walked to the curtains and yanked them closed. I didnāt see anything or anyone...but that didnāt calm the feeling crawling up my spine. What if this whole thing...this key, this chest, even meeting Agnes was orchestrated? What if I wasnāt uncovering the truth so much as being fed it? I looked back down at the chest. The key still sat in the lock like it was waiting. I didnāt trust it. But I also didnāt trust not opening it. What if it held everything? My fists clenched. No. Not yet. I needed to be smart. I needed to be sure no one else had touched this. No one else had access. I pulled the key out and tucked it back into my coat pocket. Then I shoved the chest deeper into the closet and stacked a few boxes over it, just enough to hide it without looking suspicious. Then I grabbed my phone and started checking for bugs...literally. The corne
MAFIA'S REBORN WIFE Ā Ā Ā Chapter 24 Distorted memories
Agnes hesitated. Her wrinkled hands clutched the edge of her chair, knuckles whitening as she stared down at the dusty floor. āA ledgerā she finally said, her voice low and tight. āYour mother kept a detailed record...dates, names, deals. Everything the Garrett family tried to bury. Corrupt officials, bribes, offshore accounts, blood money... even people who went missing under mysterious circumstances. All of it. She was going to use it to bring the entire empire down.ā My heart thundered. āWhere is it now?ā āThatās the problemā Agnes said, looking up at me with haunted eyes. āShe hid it before she died. She didnāt trust anyone, not even me. All she told me was that the key to finding it was āwith Mariah.ā My breath caught. āWith me?ā She nodded slowly. āItās why Iāve stayed hidden all these years. Iāve been trying to protect you, hoping no one would connect the dots. If the Garretts or anyone loyal to them...figured out who you are, they'd come for you. Not just because youāre
MAFIA'S REBORN WIFE Ā Ā Ā Chapter 23 The letter
Agnes huffed under her breath, muttering something I couldnāt catch. She straightened her shoulders and gave me a long, penetrating look, like she was memorizing my face in case this went badly. Then she walked to the door, undid the latch, and opened it just a crack. I stayed pressed against the wall, just out of sight, heart hammering against my ribcage. Markās voice was immediate. āWhere is she?ā āSheās goneā Agnes replied flatly. āJust left.ā There was a beat of silence. I imagined Mark narrowing his eyes. āShe was here, right?ā āSheās not anymoreā Agnes said, her tone sharp now, even as her hand gripped the edge of the door tighter. āAnd I donāt answer to you, young man.ā Silence again. Then his voice, quieter this time. āTell her to be careful. Thatās all I wanted to say.ā I heard footsteps retreating slowly, measured, heavy. The door creaked shut again. Agnes turned around, her chest rising and falling faster than before. āYou sure heās not one of them?ā s
MAFIA'S REBORN WIFE Ā Ā Ā Chapter 22 Agnes Langford
ELEANOR'S POV Walking out of the elevator with Liam, he offered to drive me home but I refused cause I had other plans. "I brought my car and today's friday, I don't wanna leave my car in the company's parking lot throughout the whole weekend." I gave an excuse that I knew would work on him. Shrugging, he led me to my car and pecked me on my forehead before waving me goodbye, a soft smile on his face. I smiled back, keeping it light, but the moment I slipped into my car and shut the door, the warmth faded from my face, seriousness taking over. I started the engine, but didnāt drive home. Instead, I pulled out the small notebook from my bag, the one with the scribbled address Iād tracked down earlier this week. Agnes Langford. A former housekeeper for the Garrett family. The same year Sarah disappearedā¦ Agnes vanished too. Coincidence? I didnāt believe in those anymore. I typed the address into my GPS and pulled out of the lot, heading across town toward a quiet,

MARK'S POV Standing in front of my desk, I stared at the woman in front of me coldly. "What are you doing here?""Ohh, come on Mark. Is that a way to greet your fiance?" She asked with that annoying smile on her face, a smile I know too well.Gritting my teeth, I scoffed "Ex fiance!" I corrected her, my voice dripping with malice.Claudiaās smile faltered for a split second, but she recovered quickly, brushing an invisible speck off her designer blazer as she stepped closer.āTechnicalitiesā she purred. āYou never really ended things properly. One could say you justā¦ ran away.āāI shouldāve run fasterā I said flatly, my jaw tight. āAnd you showing up here unannounced? Bad idea.āShe tilted her head, eyes gleaming with false sweetness. āI missed you, darling. And from the looks of things, Iām not the only one whoāsā¦ interested in you lately.āMy eyes narrowed. So thatās what this was about.She leaned against the edge of my desk, crossing her arms. āSheās pretty, your secretary. Has n
