LOGINPietro Ricci, the Don of the Ricci Famiglia, is a notorious womanizer. He has been married for five years, and for four and a half years, he has lived with his mistresses instead of me. He has more lovers than he can count. In a private room at a bar, his friend, Marco Gallo, raises his glass and says teasingly, "How did you get your wife to be so understanding? Why doesn't Lucia make a fuss anymore? "She doesn't even complain when you sleep with Antonia. After you two are done, she even has hot water ready for you. We're all jealous of you!" Pietro lazily leans back against the couch, a faint smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. "The women of the Ricci Famiglia are bound by a Famiglia code. None of them are allowed to interfere in their husband's affairs. Their husbands' comfort always comes first. Anyone who violates the Famiglia code will face punishment." Marco covers his mouth in shock. "Oh my goodness! Back then, you went against your entire Famiglia just so you could marry Lucia, and you almost lost your position as the Don too. And now you're seriously using the Famiglia code to punish her?" Pietro wraps an arm around Antonia Costa and casually takes a sip of the wine in her hand. A low chuckle escapes his lips. "Lucia's such a handful. If I don't teach her a lesson, she'll never learn. As the Donna of the Ricci Famiglia, she needs to be able to accept this." I don't cry or make a fuss when I hear them laughing in the private room. I simply turn away and return to the Ricci residence, where I plead with the Ricci elder. "I no longer wish to renew the marriage agreement for a sixth year. It expires tomorrow, and I'm willing to leave him for good."

He clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white. He was consumed by regret and helplessness. He turned to Matteo and spoke in a clipped, decisive voice. "Send all our people to Sikimo immediately and track the Donna down. Spare no expense to find her."Over the next few days, Pietro mobilized all his resources to search for Lucia. The reports kept coming in, and one day, they finally tracked her down to Pajelia, Sikimo. …Lucia's POVThe day I arrived in Sikimo, I happened to save Don Stefano Caruso's wife when she suffered a heart attack. The Donna was grateful that I had saved her life. After learning what I had been through, she invited me to stay with the Caruso Famiglia and help her manage the Famiglia business. She even made it publicly known that anyone in Sikimo who dared disrespect me would be making
Third-Person POVFury surged within Pietro. Without wasting a moment, he immediately sped back to his estate. Antonia had been waiting at the estate all along. She quietly let out a sigh of relief when she saw no sign of Lucia. She was secretly delighted. It would be better if Lucia disappeared from their lives forever and never returned. That way, she could secure her place as the Donna of the Ricci Famiglia. She quickly suppressed her smug satisfaction and put on a meek, obedient expression again. Seeing Pietro arrive, she hurried over to him with a coy smile and gently hooked her arm through his. "They still haven't found Lucia?"She continued, feigning concern. "She must be really upset with us. That's why she left in a fit of anger. Don't be too upset."Antonia's words instantly ignited Pietro's fury. He finally saw through her malicious, deceitful facade. Memories of everything that had happened came flooding back. Antonia had kept playing the victim and acting like
Third-Person POVPietro wasted no time and sped all the way back to his office. By then, Matteo was already waiting for him. He practically held his breath when Pietro walked in, his expression grim. Pietro strode over and grabbed Matteo by the collar, his eyes blazing with fury. "What on earth happened? Why did my Donna leave? Tell me!"As Pietro seized him, Matteo froze before shaking his head fearfully. "Don Ricci, I can't explain it. Once you watch everything, you'll understand."With that, he cautiously opened his laptop and pulled up the archived surveillance footage. The screen lit up, and the first video began playing. The video showed the first time Lucia met Antonia. The latter deliberately raised her hand and flung the wineglass to the floor. The glass shards instantly cut her wrist. But the very next moment, Antonia immediately put on a wronged expression, pinning all the blame on Lucia. Pietro fixed his gaze on the screen and clenched his fists, a cold glint f
Third-Person POVPietro stopped in his tracks, his expression darkening. His presence was menacing. He turned back to look at Leonardo, who was livid. Pietro's tone was firm, making it clear he had no intention of backing down. "Lucia's not just any woman. She's my Donna. Let me make it clear to you right now. If I can't find her, no one will have a moment's peace. Everyone in the Famiglia is going to pay for this."Pietro's words left Leonardo shaking with rage. His chest heaved as he pressed a hand against it. He was trembling all over as he stared at the stubborn Pietro, his eyes filled with disappointment and rage. "Look at what you've become! Have you forgotten that a Don is supposed to be composed and dignified? You're throwing the entire Ricci Famiglia into chaos over a woman you're already divorced from. What you're doing now is completely reckless and absurd!"Pietro's expression remained cold. Leonardo's words didn't faze him in the slightest. He looked up and swep
