Regret

I used to think my husband was the angel who saved me from the depths of hell. Five years ago, I would have died for my ex-fiance, Marco Lombardi, but his carelessness caused Mom's kidneys to fail. He ignored 99 of my calls, and with an empty bank account, I couldn't even afford the surgery to donate my kidney to her. Only later did I discover that during that time, he was having romantic getaways with my stepsister, Penny Rossi. When I hit rock bottom, mafia Don Leon Costa showed up. He got me the best doctors, handled everything when Mom died, and even proposed to me when I was a complete mess. In our five years of marriage, he has spoiled me rotten. I've almost forgotten how much Marco and Penny hurt me. Then, today, I overhear his phone call with Penny. "Leon, thank you for giving my sister's kidney to my mother back then." My beloved husband just brushes it off. "Don't worry about it. I'll look after your sister. She won't ever know." He laughs quietly, and his voice is full of warmth. "You know I hate seeing you cry."

Chapter 1
I had been with my husband, Leon Costa, for five years. I thanked God every day for letting me meet him. He appeared when my fiance betrayed me and my mother was dying. He had helped me selflessly.Even though Mom eventually died from rejection reactions, I never blamed him for it. That was until tonight, when I stood outside the study door and heard the whole truth."Don't worry, Penny. Camilla's recent poor condition might not be a rejection reaction."Leon Costa's voice was deep and gentle in a way that was out of character. After all, he was a cold and ruthless mafia Don in front of most people."Veronica's kidney can last at least another 20 years."What was he talking about? My ears buzzed, and I couldn't hear anything he said after that.In a daze, I remembered that rainy night five years ago when I was still Marco Lombardi's fiancee. I was sitting disheveled outside the operating room, calling Marco over and over again.I had called him 99 times, yet he didn't answer a s

As I got out of bed, I found a hastily scribbled note on the entryway table."Company emergency. Don't wait up."That liar. I stormed into Leon's study, furious. I'd never set foot in this place during our five years of marriage.I knew the study was where he handled business and confidential matters, so I never asked questions. He never bothered locking it since I was so understanding. Now, I needed to find the truth I was looking for. I had to know whose body my kidney was actually in.The drawers weren't locked. As I searched through them, the first things I found were photos. He and Penny were captured in all of them. The almost devout focus in his eyes when he looked at Penny made my eyes burn.Finally, in an inconspicuous file folder, I found that organ transplant agreement."Donor: Veronica Bianchi"Recipient: Camilla Rosario"My hands were shaking. It was true. Everything was true! The kidney that should have saved Mom was now inside Camilla, the mistress who made her c

The yacht party was lavish, but I immediately noticed something was off when I looked around carefully.The bodyguards stood lazily in corners, and not one of them was armed. The maids moved clumsily. Their hands were trembling slightly as they carried trays. And though the food was elegant, the portions were clearly insufficient.Had Marco's family really declined to this extent?Still, this was perfect. If that was the case, security was probably loose too, making it easier for Uncle Dante's people to act.Leon walked into the venue with his arm around my waist. In an instant, everyone's eyes turned to us."Don Costa!""Madre!"The guests swarmed over, competing to curry favor. Everyone knew that Leon's family had been thriving under his leadership these past years, while Marco's influence had long since declined.Marco stood not far away. His face was dark as he watched this play out. But he quickly adjusted his expression and walked over with champagne. He forced a smile. "

The night wind on the top deck was bone-chillingly cold. I stood alone in the corner, staring blankly at the dark sea. Faint laughter and music drifted from the distance, making this place feel even more desolate.Soon, I would be able to leave. I just needed to endure a little longer.Just then, the sound of leather shoes on the deck interrupted my thoughts."Leon, I really regret it." Penny's tearful voice floated over.I froze instantly, instinctively retreating further into the shadows."Marco is getting more and more unreasonable now."Through the gaps in the railing, I saw Penny leaning against Leon's chest. Tears were streaming down her face. Leon frowned. His hand was suspended in mid-air for a while before he started patting her back gently."I thought marrying him was the right thing to do, but now? His business gets worse every day, and his attitude toward me is just..."She looked up at Leon with teary eyes. "But seeing you doing better and better makes me really ha

Third Person Point-of-ViewLeon searched the sea like a madman. He even ignored the rescue team's attempts to stop him, diving underwater again and again by himself.The firelight illuminated his pale face and bloodshot eyes. The mafia Don's cold composure vanished completely."Leon! Please!" Wrapped in a rescue blanket, Penny grabbed his arm with trembling hands as he was about to dive again."Please don't go anymore, okay? I'm so scared and cold. Please take me away! That bastard, Marco, ran off by himself. You're all I have now..."Leon's struggling movements paused. Pain and confusion showed in his eyes. It was something Penny had never seen before. He wanted to keep searching, but thinking of Penny's life-saving grace, he compromised.He wearily waved at the rescue captain. "Keep looking. If she's alive, I want to see her. If she's dead... I want to see the body."After sending the chattering Penny, who kept complaining about her fear and grievances, back to her temporary r

Veronica's Point-of-ViewThe smell of disinfectant stung my nostrils as I opened my eyes. Pure white ceiling, cold instruments. This was the Federal Intelligence Agency's secret medical facility.The sharp pain in my lower back reminded me that the kidney that had been forcibly taken away had finally returned to my body."Awake?" Uncle Dante sat by the bed. His face was weathered, but his eyes were sharp."The surgery was successful. Your kidney is back." He paused. "But you have a long recovery ahead.""Thank you.""Your mother..." Uncle Dante's voice suddenly turned hoarse. "If I had known she wasn't doing well back then..."I shook my head. "She never regretted it.""She was the sister I was most proud of." Uncle Dante's eyes filled with pain. "But in our line of work, family members are absolutely forbidden from having any involvement with the mafia."She fell in love with your father and insisted on cutting ties. We could only follow her through the media, thinking she wa

Veronica's Point-of-ViewThe surgical pain around my waist and abdomen reminded me of my weakness. But I gripped the edge of the bed and sat up without hesitation."Veronica." Uncle Dante frowned and blocked me, disapproving. "Your body can't handle this strain. We can take care of this issue.""No, Uncle Dante." I looked up at him, and my gaze was steady. "I need to see this with my own eyes."He stared at me for a moment before finally stepping aside reluctantly. "She's in the isolation ward downstairs. I'll have someone follow you."In the hospital room, Camilla, who had once been so arrogant and domineering, had lost all her luster. She lay in bed with tubes inserted throughout her body. Her face was ashen, and her abdomen was wrapped in thick bandages.My kidney had once been inside of her. Now, there was nothing. Her cloudy eyes struggled to open, and her pupils were instantly filled with terror and malice after recognizing me.She tried to speak but could only make hoarse

Veronica's Point-of-ViewMy new life was peaceful. I had a new name, a new identity, and I joined the intelligence division of the Federal Intelligence Agency under Uncle Dante's arrangements.Every day, I processed files and occasionally participated in field missions. The days were simple but fulfilling.When I saw Leon again, I almost didn't recognize him.He stood in the Federal Intelligence Agency lobby, dressed in a suit but gaunt-faced, with dark circles under his eyes. His once elegant and composed demeanor was completely gone. When he saw me, his eyes suddenly brightened as he walked quickly toward me."Veronica! I knew you weren't dead!"I stepped back and frowned at the security personnel blocking his path. "What is this man doing here?"The security officer showed me the documents. He had surrendered as a mafia Don just to be brought to Federal Intelligence headquarters for trial. He really was insane.Uncle Dante strode over from the other end of the corridor. His
