Carmine’s POV

“Take care, okay? Make sure to enjoy your day together,” Sylus said to me and Natalia while we were preparing to leave for our mother and daughter bond.

Natalia enthusiastically nodded her head, “Yes, daddy. Mom and I will make sure to enjoy our day together!"

Sylus patted her head with a smile on his face, “That’s my girl. Take care of mommy, okay?”

“Yes, daddy.”

I was surprised when Sylus suddenly looked at me without taking off the smile on his face. I immediately averted my gaze from him, avoiding to have an eye-to-eye contact..

After what happened last night, I don’t even know how to face him without remembering it. I almost did it with him last night. He suddenly kissed me and for no apparent reason, I kissed him back.

I guess I can never be alone with him again. Or maybe I shouldn’t let him be so near me again.

“Babe, don’t forget to call me whenever you get the chance to or if you need anything. Enjoy your time with our daughter,” Sylus said to me, his voice was

  • Mafia King's Substitute Wife   CHAPTER 43: PLAYING WITH HER

    Sylus' POV I can't help myself from smiling as I watched Charlotte walking towards my office. She is now fulfilling our deal. I told her that she can only spend her lunch time with me and not with anyone else if she wants to keep her position. I leaned back in my swivel chair as she opened the door. She immediately met my gaze, her expression unreadable. "Why do you look unhappy going here? Aren't you happy to spend your lunch with your husband?" I asked her. "H-Huh?" I smiled as I stood up. "What do you want to have for lunch? Shall we go outside?" She looked surprised, but she immediately nodded her head. "Y-Yeah, sure. Let's just go outside." "Alright. If that is what my beautiful wife wants." As we walked outside, I put my hand around her waist, pulling her close to me as we began walking, causing my employees to look at us. "S-Sylus, I-I don't think this is appropriate," Charlotte suddenly whispered, looking at my employees. "What's inappropriate?" "Y-Yo

    I woke up with Sylus lying beside me. His features were soft and relaxed. His dark eyelashes cast a shadow on his cheeks, and his lips were slightly parted, as if he was about to share a secret. A faint smile played on his lips, giving him an air of quiet contentment, as if he was dreaming of something beautiful. His strong jawline was relaxed, and his eyebrows were smoothed out, giving him a look of vulnerability. Then I remembered about what happened last night and the words that he said to me. He told me that he is falling in love with the new Charlotte. I wonder if that means he is falling in love with me. He said those words as if he knew that I was just pretending to be his wife. I stared at his face once more, trying to remember every single detail of his vulnerability even for once. You can't fall in love with me, Sylus. I am your enemy. "Staring at me while I am sleeping, huh? Do you find me that handsome?" My eyes widened when his eyes suddenly went open

    As we walked around the room, Sylus' hands on my legs seemed to be everywhere, sending shivers down my spine. I tried to focus on the surroundings, but it was so hard to concentrate with him being so close. We passed by the couch, and I felt him lean in, his breath tickling my ear. "You okay, babe?" he suddenly whispered. I nodded, trying to play it cool. "Y-Yeah, I'm fine." He chuckled. "Good, because we're not even halfway around the room yet." He continued walking, and I couldn't help but notice how strong and warm his back was. I felt a flutter in my chest. As we approached the window, Sylus slowed down, his hands on my legs tightening. "Look outside, babe," he whispered, his voice low and husky. I looked out the window, and the city lights sparkled below us. For a moment, I forgot about everything, lost in the beauty of of the view and the warmth of Sylus' body. But then, he leaned in, his lips brushing against my ear. "You're so beautiful, babe," he suddenly whi

  • Mafia King's Substitute Wife   CHAPTER 40: GAME BEGINS

    My heart was beating so fast as Sylus declared that the game already started. He just added a rule which is to punish me whenever I lie. How can he even tell if I am lying or not? What if he asks questions and I lie? Will he find out? Why does it feels like he knows how to read my mind? Using his phone, he spun the bottle. The bottle finally came to a stop, pointing directly at me. Sylus' eyes locked onto mine, a hint of smile playing on his lips. "So, is it a truth or dare?" "Truth," I immediately answered. He nodded his head, obviously not surprised about my choice. "Alright. My question is...now that you can't remember anything yet, what is your impression of me? Oh, scratch that. What was your first impression of me when you first saw me again?" I took a deep breath, trying to compose myself. I have to be careful, I can't let Sylus see through my facade. "W-Well, the truth is...since my grandma, I mean, the people I've been with in the island already informed me

    The room seemed to spin as Sylus' lips claimed mine, his kiss intense and possessive. I tried to push him away, but he held me tight, his grip on my waist like a vice. My heart was racing, and I could feel my face flushing with heat. Just as I thought things were getting out of hand, Sylus suddenly pulled back, his eyes gleaming with amusement. "You're beautiful when you're flustered, love," he whispered, his voice husky. I glared at him, trying to catch my breath. "Mr. Sylus, this not the right time and place these kind of things," I whispered, trying to sound stern. He chuckled, his eyes sparkling with mischief. "I can't help it, babe. Seeing you acting like you don't care about me turns me on." I shook my head as I moved away from him. "Let's stop this now. We have to get back to work. As a CEO, you still have so many things to do. You need to focus on those things whenever we're here." He grinned, then he suddenly raised his right hand and wiped the corners of my mouth u

    "I wonder how can you sleep at home peacefully every night without jumping joyfully because your husband is so hot and handsome," Vanessa, our assistant manager said to me while we were having lunch at the company's cafeteria. I shook my head as I continued eating, "Oh. I can't even sleep peacefully whenever he is around." "Really? Why? Oh, of course because he is so handsome. You always want to do something spicy with him, right?" I almost choked from what I was eating when Vanessa suddenly said that. I immediately reached for my glass of water and immediately drank all of it. "W-What are you saying?" "I mean, of course, he is your husband. It's normal for you to do such things. I don't even know how you can afford to work with him here in the company without having the urge to kiss him every single time." I laughed awkwardly, feeling my cheeks heat up in embarrassment. "O-Of course, we should separate work from our personal lives. We should keep professionalism when at
