Chapter 5

Author: Scarlet Cherry
Three days later, in a private hospital belonging to the Corleone family, I was sitting in a wheelchair while looking at the dark sky from the window. My surgery was a success. My uterus was slightly wounded, but the doctor said I could still have children if I took good care of it.

I touched my flat belly. It was empty inside now. It felt like a giant black hole had swallowed all of my warmth and softness.

"Annie." My brother was lying in the bed next to me when he called out to me in a weak

  • Ruin My Love? I'll Destroy Your Family   Chapter 9

    Three years later, at a grand international business dinner event, renowned personalities gathered in a luxuriously decorated hall. The doors slowly opened, and everyone turned their attention to it.I wore a black, backless gown with a flowing skirt. My hair cascaded down to my shoulders like a waterfall, while my lips shimmered in bright red. Behind me stood Anthony, surrounded by a team of bodyguards. As I moved through the crowd, they respectfully made way, showing the deep respect etched into their bones."Is that the Corleone's newly appointed head of the family, Annie?""Shh! Lower your voice! What makes you think you can call her by her name? You should call her Donna!"Whispers could be heard all around me, but I remained stoic as I walked directly toward the main seat. That was when a brazen new member of high society who had recently made it rich approached me. "How about having a drink with me, pretty lady?" He looked me up and down lecherously. "There is no beautiful w

    Six months later, things had completely changed in South City. The Curtis family mansion had been leveled to the ground.It was raining the day I was at the cemetery. I was wearing black and holding a black umbrella while standing in front of a small, nameless tombstone that bore only a single line of inscription: "My beloved son."I crouched to gently caress the ice-cold tombstone as my tears gently fell down my cheeks. "Mommy is here to see you, my baby. All the bad people have been punished. Be good wherever you are, okay?"I heard footsteps approaching from behind. Anthony emerged. He had assumed control of the majority of the family business and had become a feared and respected newly appointed underboss."Annie." He put a huge coat over me. "Don't catch a cold."I stood up and watched the city covered in rain. "Anthony, I used to want a normal life because I felt that leading an ordinary life was the only way to make me feel alive. It's only now that I finally see things cle

    Jolene passed out from the pain but was woken up with a splash of cold water on her. She fell limply to the ground, looking like a mess. John watched all of this happen with a scared, pale look on his face. "Don't… Don't hit me… I'm innocent…"That was when my father entered the room. Two bodyguards followed behind him with a tray. There was a dagger on the tray. "It's time to upgrade the game," my father said nonchalantly with a tone that sounded like a judge from hell. "Only one of you is allowed to live. I'll release the person who manages to kill the other." The dagger was thrown between them. The air around them grew heavy and still. John and Jolene looked at each other, and the next second, John lunged at the dagger like a madman. "I want to live! I want to live!" He grabbed the hilt of the dagger and turned to stab Jolene. "Die! You were the one who caused all of this!"Even though Jolene's leg was broken, her desire to survive gave her alarmingly great strength. She bit h

    The light was dim in the basement. The only light that shone was from the lamp on the interrogation table. I was playing with a dagger in my hand while seated on a leather sofa. John and Jolene were tied to chairs. They were wet all over and stunk badly. It had been three days since they last drank any water. Their lips were dry, and they could only croak from their throats when trying to speak. "Want some water?" I shook the wine glass in my hand, and the ice water splashed against the side of the glass, making a crisp sound of sloshing from the glass. They nodded vigorously, looking like hungry wolves. "All you need to do is something simple." I pointed at them. "Expose the other person. State a crime the other did, and I'll give whoever confesses a sip of water."The moment I announced this, John immediately shouted. "I'll confess! I'll confess! Jolene is a ruthless woman who wanted to drug you! She bribed a nurse the last time you went for a prenatal checkup to get her to in

It felt like a giant black hole had swallowed all of my warmth and softness."Annie." My brother was lying in the bed next to me when he called out to me in a weak voice. "Don't be sad… I'll find you a better man than him." I turned to look at my brother's pale face. He almost died while trying to save me. "I'm not sad at all, Anthony." I smiled coldly. "I'm done crying. All that's left inside me is hate." I pressed a button on my wheelchair and turned to leave the ward. The soft-hearted Annie was dead. All that was left alive was the Principessa of the Corleone family of Segona.…The underground water prison was a place where the sun never shone. Th

    "I'm sorry I'm late, my children."John looked at me in disbelief. My father did not even glance at him as he turned to take off his gloves and flung them to a subordinate behind him to reveal the Mafia tattoo at the back of his hand that represented absolute power in the family."I want South City's Curtis family to be wiped off the map. As for these two… I want them alive. I want them to watch their flesh being sliced off piece by piece from their bodies."It felt like the air had been sucked out of the atmosphere from the man's intimidating presence. It was suffocating. John trembled so violently that the chattering of his teeth could be heard in the silence. He looked at the elderly man in the black coat, who was reminiscent of a Grim Reaper, and he finally realized what he was up against."Don… Don…" John tried to force a smile as his knees went weak. He crawled on his knees forward. "My name is John… I'm Annie's fiancé…"Bam! A loud thud as the soldato behind my father s
