Sinopsis

Tragic Love

Mafia

Bias

Winning Back the Wife

Regret

I had been secretly dating my brother’s best friend, the heir to the Moretti family, for seven years, and I was planning to propose to him at the family banquet. Following his location, I found him at a drinking party, only to overhear their laughter through a crack in the private room door. “Vito, your Cinderella is back. What are you planning to do with the little stand-in?” The room fell silent for a few seconds. Then another underboss sneered. “Vito’s got some nerve. You even dared to touch the most beloved princess of the current Sicilian Mafia Don. Now that you’ve had your fill of sweetness, Lucia has come back…” “She left so heartlessly back then. She deserved to be pissed off with a replacement!” The next day, Vito took me to Lucia’s welcome-back banquet, putting on an extravagant show of affection for me. But when Lucia rushed into the rain with tears in her eyes, he shoved me aside and chased after her in a panic. Covered in soup stains and burns, I went home and opened the secret door he had never allowed me to enter. Photographs of him and Lucia, once inseparable, covered the desk. My heart turned to ash as I picked up the encrypted line to my brother in Sicily. “Brother, I’ve thought it over. About the arranged marriage in Chicago—I agree!”

Chapter 1
“Sophia, did something happen? Did someone wrong you?”My brother was stunned for a moment on the other end of the phone, then his voice filled with deep concern.A wave of bitterness rose into my throat. I forced a light laugh.“No. I’ve just come to terms with it. We’ll have to marry for the family sooner or later. What difference does it make who I marry?”“Besides, I trust you and Father’s judgment. Even if it’s that family in Chicago, the man they’ve chosen must have been carefully vetted by the family’s intelligence network.”Only then did my brother let out a long sigh of relief, his tone becoming much lighter.“I’m glad you’ve thought it through. So when are you coming back to Sicily? Do you want to meet him first before making a decision?”“No need. The sooner I agree, the sooner the family can establish the arms route over there. Start making the wedding arrangements first. As for the date… let’s set it for a month from now!”“Alright! By the way, are you in touch with Vito?

“What’s wrong? Sophia, are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?”My tears threw Vito into a panic.He pulled up my sleeve, and when he saw the large patch of angry red burns on my wrist, his voice began to tremble with concern.“How did this happen? When did you get burned? Why didn’t you tell me?”He seemed to have completely forgotten what had happened at the banquet.I stayed silent, unsure whether I should remind him and tear away the mask of devotion he was pretending to wear.“Alright, don’t cry. I’ll put some medicine on it for you.”He soothingly rubbed my head before getting up to fetch the medical kit, muttering as he went.“Look at you. You’re all grown up, yet you’re still such a crybaby who can’t stand a little pain. What would you do without me?”I stared blankly at the angry red burns on my wrist.He was right.After being pampered by him for seven whole years, what would I do without him?But, Vito, I just don’t want you anymore.I don’t want this fake relationship anymo

Chapter 3
I gave a self-deprecating smile, put away my phone, and went to get my medication before heading to the infusion room alone.After the IV was finished, my head felt even more dizzy. I had barely taken a few steps when I nearly collapsed.Vito still hadn’t come back.Not a single phone call. Not even a message.Not wanting to cause an unnecessary misunderstanding, I had no choice but to call him myself.When Vito heard that I was still at the family clinic, he froze for a moment.“I’m sorry, Sophia. I was planning to take Lucia home and come straight back for you, but her old injury flared up, so…”Before he could finish, a waiter’s voice came through the phone.“Sir, all the dishes you ordered have been served. Enjoy your meal!”Although Vito quickly covered the receiver, I still heard every word.“It’s fine. I can do this alone!”I was saying it to myself, and to Vito as well.Just as I was about to hang up, Vito suddenly called my name.“Sophia, go home first. I’ll explain everything

Never had I felt so humiliated and degraded as I did in that moment. Under her victorious gaze, all I could do was flee in panic.When I returned to the private dining room, the warmth and enthusiasm of my colleagues slowly brought feeling back to my cold blood.Just as I was gradually about to put that unpleasant episode behind me, the door to the private room was pushed open.Seeing two entire tables filled with people, Vito froze for a moment before his gaze locked precisely onto me.When our eyes met, I could clearly see the restrained fury in his eyes, though I had no idea why he was angry.He clenched his fists, then finally called my name and ordered me to come outside.Confused, I followed him out, only to receive a hard slap across the face in the hallway.It was the first time he had ever hit me.When he saw the disbelief in my eyes, there was not the slightest trace of guilt or remorse on his face.Only anger.“Why did you push Lucia? You knew she had injured her ankle. I al

Chapter 5
After seven years together, I thought that no matter what happened, Vito should at least trust me as a person.I never expected that as long as Lucia was involved, even seven years meant nothing.One word from her was enough to condemn me, leaving me with no chance to defend myself.It was blatant favoritism, and unmistakable partiality.And in the end, I was nothing more than a substitute who had nothing of my own.There was no point arguing anymore.Ignoring Vito’s angry scolding behind me, I turned and walked away.With a clear handprint still visible on my cheek, I didn’t want to ruin my colleagues’ mood, so I didn’t return to the private room.Instead, I went to the front desk alone, paid the bill, and then messaged them to let them know I had to leave unexpectedly.“Something came up, so I had to leave early. Enjoy yourselves and have a good time. I’ve already taken care of the bill!”Dragging my exhausted body home, I looked around the place where I had lived for seven years mor

The plane flew toward Sicily, with the bright sun shining overhead and an endless blue sky stretching beyond the window, a breathtaking sight.I watched the scenery outside with interest as it constantly changed.Sometimes, an endless sea of clouds rolled beneath us; other times, the sky glowed an eye-catching red.Suddenly, inspiration struck me, and I quickly grabbed some paper and a pen to sketch it down.By the time I finished the rough sketch, it was completely dark outside.I had flown from Chicago to Sicily.When we took off, it was the morning of the 27th.By the time we landed, it was already late at night.The moment I walked out of the airport, I saw my parents and eldest brother standing in a row, smiling and waving at me.Behind them stood a line of family guards, making the scene impossible to miss.I grabbed my suitcase and ran toward them, throwing myself into my mother’s arms and savoring the warmth I had missed for so long.Back then, because of the feelings in my hea

Chapter 7
The dinner was arranged at the family estate.That day, every family that had business dealings with my father was invited.I was dragged around to toast one family after another until my feet were aching, so I slipped into a guest room to rest.The moment I lay down on the bed, I heard a noise coming from the bathroom, startling me.“Who’s there?”I called out, but when I received no answer, curiosity got the better of me, and I cautiously approached the door.The moment the bathroom door opened, I was pulled inside.My gasp was caught in my throat as I stared at the man in front of me in horror.Soaking wet from head to toe, the man pinned me against the wall, his breathing hot and labored.It seemed to take him a great deal of effort to see me clearly.After a long moment, he called my name weakly.“Sophia Lucasi?”I blinked in response.He released me, only for his entire body to suddenly collapse against me.“How convenient. I’m your soon-to-be husband, Winston Greco. Could you do

On the way home, I asked my brother about Winston, curiosity getting the better of me.My brother sighed and told me everything, from beginning to end.It turned out that the old Don of the Greco family planned to hand full control of the family over to Winston after his arranged marriage.But Winston’s aunt by marriage was no pushover.She believed the family should be divided equally between her husband and Winston’s father.The problem was, those two men were each more useless than the other.Winston’s uncle in particular had previously been manipulated by a rival family and conned out of a considerable amount of money.If Winston hadn’t managed to turn the situation around, the Greco family might have lost half of everything because of him.With men like that, how could the old Don possibly feel comfortable entrusting the family’s legacy, built over generations, to them?When Winston’s aunt realized she couldn’t persuade the old Don, she could only turn her attention to Winston.To

Chapter 9
When I stepped outside, I saw Vito standing there in my favorite suit, holding a bouquet of flowers and smiling gently at me.“Sophia, I’ve thought things over. I was wrong about the way I treated you that day. I shouldn’t have laid a hand on you and hurt you like that.”“My feelings for Lucia really aren’t what you think. I only see her as a friend now. If you’re unhappy about it in the future, I won’t see her anymore.”I stared at Vito, unable to understand what he was trying to pull this time.Anyone with eyes could see how much he cared about Lucia.Now that the real deal was back, the substitute was supposed to step aside. Wouldn’t that have been a good thing for him?Why was he chasing me all the way to Sicily just to keep pestering me?When I remained silent, he pulled out a red velvet box and dropped to one knee in front of me.“Sophia, I know I’ve put you through a lot. Believe me, I’ll make it up to you from now on.”“Marry me. From now on, you’ll be the only woman by my side

Chapter 10
On the day Winston and I got married, Vito and Lucia showed up at the wedding.This time, they had been invited.Vito still had a cast on his leg, and Lucia was supporting him as he walked.Several family guards stood around them, making sure they couldn’t try anything.I looked at Winston in confusion, but he simply said, “It’s safer to keep them where we can see them. That way, they can’t cause any trouble.”My brother curled his lips. “That’s just your way of being devious.”When Winston and I exchanged rings, chaos broke out on Vito’s side.He shoved Lucia aside, and her forehead struck the corner of a table, drawing blood, yet he didn’t even spare her a glance.It was just like at Lucia’s welcome-back banquet, when he had moved too carelessly and splashed soup all over me, yet hadn’t even turned his head before chasing after her.Vito tried to rush over and shout something, but the family guards held him down firmly and covered his mouth.The booming wedding cannons and deafening
