Reborn to Marry the Silent Outcast Chapter 10
Three months later, my father's health had mostly stabilized.He handed more of the family business to me and stopped pushing me to marry just to secure an alliance before I took over.The Falcones honored the settlement.Roman was sent to the West Coast, officially to oversee a minor operation. In reality, he'd already been pushed out of the line of succession.He never came looking for me again.Marietta disappeared from Leighton society entirely.Elio stayed.My father made him start at the bottom, handling basic security and intelligence work.In three months, he shut down two leaks the Vieris had never detected and flagged several suspicious cargo manifests before the shipments cleared the Caruso docks.My father did not give him a fancy title just for show.He put Elio in charge of a small intelligence unit. His authority remained below mine, and every major transfer still required my signature.Elio never complained. He didn't need to take away my power to prove his own.No one

My father first brought in an old adviser respected by both families as a witness. Then he summoned Bruno Falcone, the head of the Falcone family, and Roman to the estate.Before the door closed, both families' bodyguards were ordered to wait in the outer hall. There was nothing on the table but evidence and ledgers.My father pushed the file across the table. "Your son poisoned me."Bruno turned a few pages, his expression darkening with each one.Casino cash. The doctor's statement. Anthony's ledger. The drug lot numbers. The port contracts.Any one of them could be explained away on its own. Together, they were impossible to dismiss as coincidence.Roman kept his expression calm. "Marietta handled many of my personal investments."My father said mildly, "So you're going to let her take the fall?"Roman did not answer.I finally understood how Marietta had found her way into my father's study so quickly in my last life.She was not just the other woman. She also managed the money Rom

For the next three days, we made no move against Roman.My father sealed away all his old medication, replaced his private doctor, and temporarily suspended Gino's authority.Once Marietta's phone reached the finance team, they finally uncovered the full money trail.The Falcone casino handled enormous amounts of cash every day.Some of it had been laundered through a catering company, then transferred to a shell company posing as a medical supplier before reaching Anthony's black-market pharmacy.The paperwork was almost spotless.The only problem was that some of the money could be traced back to Roman's personal investment account.And Marietta had personally approved the transfer.Roman sent a lawyer over with a short statement. "A personal investment doesn't mean I knew how the money was being used."My father read it and chuckled. "This kid is even more cunning than I was at his age.""Which is exactly why we can't rush."I set aside every photo on Marietta's phone that proved he

My father personally arranged the operation at the old docks.The docks were part of an abandoned freight yard. The outer perimeter belonged to a storage company that worked with the Carusos.We moved the night crew out ahead of time and closed two access roads using maintenance as an excuse.Rosa went into the warehouse as planned.Elio and I were in the second-floor office. Two guards held the stairs, and two more covered the exit into the container yard.Another car waited two blocks away with the backup men my father had stationed there.What I wanted was evidence, not a chance to prove who was tougher.Rosa's voice came through the earpiece first. "It's all here."Then came the sound of heels clicking against concrete.Marietta had come. She opened the box and glanced at the numbers. "Increase the dose a little in the next batch."Rosa asked the question we had rehearsed. "He's already passed out twice. Wouldn't more make it happen too fast?"Marietta answered flatly, "They can't

My father's blood work quickly confirmed that he was being poisoned in more than one way. The pills contained a slow-acting cardiotoxin, while his nightly wine had been laced with a sedative over an extended period.I pulled the last three months of night-shift rosters, liquor delivery logs, prescription changes, and casino transactions and went through everything.Carlo was the first to fall.He had adjusted my father's prescriptions for Roman. Whenever my father felt sick, he dismissed it as a normal side effect.Gino never put anything in the wine himself, but he knew what was happening and kept quiet.His nephew was being paid an absurd salary by a Falcone casino. Gino knew someone in the house was tampering with my father's food and medicine, yet chose to see nothing.Last was Rosa, who handled my father's wine at night.Marietta had used her son's casino debts to force Rosa to spike the wine every night.Rosa sank to her knees, sobbing. "Ms. Caruso, I never wanted to hurt him."I

Anthony was not at the repair shop.His younger brother, Daniel Cole, was there, packing.The moment he saw Elio, the color drained from his face. "How did you find this place?"I put the photo of the drug lot numbers on the table. "Did your brother handle these?"Daniel did not answer. He kept glancing at the door. "Anthony told me last night to skip town.""Why?""Because somebody started cleaning house."He swallowed. "He said if I wasn't gone by today, I'd disappear just like he did."I was about to ask more when Elio suddenly raised a hand.A car had stopped outside. It was not one of ours.The back door of the shop swung open, and my hand went straight to my gun.Two men came in. One of them saw me and froze.They hadn't expected me to be here.Daniel had been their target all along.One of them swore under his breath and started backing toward the door.He did not want to open fire on me in a place like this.Anyone in their line of work knew there was a huge difference between
