Away from Lucas's Villa, Wilson’s mansion loomed like a vigilant sentinel on the outskirts of the metropolis, its grandiose façade veiled in an aura of malice. In the parlor, seated at the dining table, Wilson partook in dinner with his daughter, Elizabeth, as they conversed about their earlier scheme that had been executed in the afternoon.

Seated at the table, Elizabeth appeared delicate with her porcelain skin, her pale hands firmly grasping a fork as she savored a slice of steak from the plethora of dishes before her. She then gazed up at her father, uttering her thoughts.

"Daddy, do you believe our scheme was successful? Any word from those ruffians you dispatched?" Elizabeth inquired, her steak still in her mouth as she reached for a glass of milk.

Wilson's brows furrowed as he regarded his daughter, answering, "I have yet to receive an update from them. It's peculiar that they have not reported to me yet, and I cannot shake this ominous feeling." A feeling of dread gnawed at h

    “What is she doing here?” Elizabeth muttered, her eyes fixed on a woman’s back.Aiden, who was standing beside her, followed her gaze, and they landed on a familiar figure. He glanced away from the woman, then turned back to Elizabeth. “Her friend is currently being treated in the hospital,” he said, and Elizabeth raised a brow at him. Aiden sighed, knowing she didn’t understand, and then decided to explain further.“The cop guy; Matteo Spencer is a friend of hers, and apparently, he was the one she’d eloped with before the wedding. Lucas had found them together and shot him in the leg. He used him to get her to appear for the wedding and told his men to bring him to the hospital to treat his wound as per the girl’s wish.” He chuckled after his explanation.“What’s funny?” Elizabeth asked with a hiss.“It’s funny how Lucas had his men bring him to the same hospital they’d brought you to. A fantastic coincidence, isn’t it?”Elizabeth glared at Aiden, and he shut his mouth, the grin di

  • MR. MAFIA ACHILLES HEEL   Chapter 70_ A Week Old

    Matteo lay in the hospital bed as different thoughts crossed his mind. He stared blankly at the ceiling, wondering what had happened to Kate after he was brought to the hospital. ‘Did she get married to him already?’ he thought bitterly, then shook his head as other thoughts made their way into his mind.‘Why hasn't she come to visit me yet? Is he stopping her from coming to see me?’ he mused, letting out a frustrated sigh. He was tired of being in the hospital; he wanted to be discharged and find out if Kate was unharmed.His eyes strayed to his legs covered in stitches, and he gritted his teeth as memories of how Lucas had shot him in the leg and used him to threaten Kate into marrying him resurfaced. “That conniving bastard!” he muttered under his breath as he clenched his fists.Lucas had humiliated him and taken the one woman he’d ever loved. He wondered if he would ever feel that way for someone else like he had for Kate. If only he'd accepted his feelings for her back then, the

    Morning sun spilled gently into Lucas's room, and he stirred awake, feeling weight on his hand. He opened his eyes slowly, and there she was: his wife, sleeping peacefully beside him.Kate's head rested on his outstretched hand, and her breaths were soft and even in sleep. A grin spread across his lips as he watched her, and looking at her asleep, he wondered what he’d done right in life to deserve this moment.After watching her breathe against him for a while, Lucas gently lifted her head from his hand and placed her on the pillow; his movements slow and gentle. Then his hands moved around her waist, holding her in place.As Lucas gazed at her sleeping face, his mind wandered to the question she’d asked him last night, and the smile slid off his face. She had asked him a simple question, yet it had been so difficult for him to give her an answer. What was he supposed to say to her?Tell her everything? No. He couldn't do that. He didn't have the courage to show her his fears, nor di

  • MR. MAFIA ACHILLES HEEL   Chapter 68_ Nightmare

    Night had settled over the mansion, casting a dark silence over the rooms. Wilson stepped into the living room, his eyes scanning the space for any sign of his daughter. When he didn't find her, he walked into the kitchen to get a glass of water.After pouring himself a drink, he placed the cup down and headed back into the living room. That's when he spotted Aiden and asked, “Where's my daughter?”“She had retired to her room," Aiden replied. Wilson nodded, his eyes drifting towards the large clock on the wall. It had just struck midnight. He hesitated, his mind torn between heading back to his own room or checking on Elizabeth.Lately, he’d been worried about her, ever since the incident with Lucas. Elizabeth had become withdrawn, rarely leaving the house. Wilson's concern got the better of him, and instead of going back to his room, he decided to check on his daughter. With that thought, he climbed the flight of stairs, his footsteps quiet on the carpeted floor as he made his way t

    “What about now?” Lucas asked, and when Kate cast him a confused look, he explained, “What does he mean to you now?""Umm…” Kate paused, letting his question hang in the air for a while as she collected her thoughts. ‘What does Matteo mean to her now?’Her mind drifted back to the memories she’d shared with Matteo— the late-night conversations, the laughter, the tears they had shared together when Matteo had lost his mother. The way her heart used to flutter softly in her chest when he was around her or smiled at her.As she reflected on her feelings, Kate realized that her feelings for Matteo had evolved over time. She had a crush on him ever since he saved her from those bullies at school. And she’d tried letting him know back then that he meant more to her. But Matteo always treated her like a sister; he made her feel he considered her nothing more than a best friend.Kate could vividly remember the conversation she had overheard at Matteo's house with his mother. “Do you like her?

    Lucas wanted to ask questions about Matteo, to know how they had met and how close they had been, but he shoved the thought aside. This wasn't the right time for that. At this moment, Kate needed him, not his jealousy.He reached out, taking her hands in his. “Kitty,” he called softly, his voice steady but thick with emotion. “I'm so sorry you had to go through all of that—losing your parents and carrying all that guilt inside you for so long.”Lucas gave her hands a soft squeeze as he continued, “I’m glad you had Bob beside you, and that…” He paused, his jaw tightening as he finally said the name, “and Matteo. But you don't need them anymore! I'm here now, and I’ll be with you until my last breath.”Kate's breath hitched at Lucas's words, and she parted her lips slightly as if to speak, but no words came out. Lucas leaned closer to her, then bumped his forehead softly against hers. “I will do whatever it takes to find the owner of that car; the one who took your parents away from you
