The Mafia King's Wife (English Version)

No one wished to look back, and their attention focused on a man speaking at the front. His body trembled with fear, unable to wipe the sweat off his brow. It is because the most intimidating man he knew in the world was looking at him. It was none other than Devon Donovan, the CEO of Donovan Industry, who was also a Mafia King. Almost everyone was familiar with him and feared him wherever he went.

Even his secretary, Finn Lucas, kept swallowing nervously. He could tell that Devon was unhappy with what was happening in front of him. As a result, his fingers were constantly drumming on the table. In the meantime, the entire room was wrapped in silence.

"Boss, do you wish for me to cancel the shares?" Finn initiated, his voice trembling as he sensed the tension from the man in front of him.

"I do not want to see your face, so get out of my sight," Devon responded, while his face is much colder than before.

He stood up from his seat, wearing his luxurious coat. "At the base, Finn," he said briefly.

Devon has only one base, but as the mafia king, he is revered by all groups, regardless of their status, as if he were a god. He visits these groups when something unfortunate happens, particularly when he is aware that the group follows his rules.

As Finn Lucas drove quietly towards the location indicated by Devon, he remained lost in thought.

Since childhood, Finn's parents have owed a significant debt of gratitude to Devon's family. As a result, Finn has become accustomed to his life alongside the Mafia king.

He is the only one with whom Devon communicates, apart from Devon's two siblings. Thus, he is familiar with the behavior Devon exhibits towards everyone. The way Devon treats others is the same way he treats Finn.

Devon Donovan is known for his lack of emotion. The concept of second chances does not exist in his vocabulary, as he is only familiar with killing.

Why is a second chance even necessary?

Finn remains quiet until they arrive at the base. He understands that Devon is not in the mood and knows what happens when he makes a mistake. Devon can become a complete demon whom no one wishes to encounter.

Therefore, as much as possible, his subordinates avoid making any missteps. Instead, they await the signal from the demon. Upon the entrance of Devon and Finn, all present immediately became alert. They managed to bow, as this was a gesture of respect.

"Boss," Chang Lu approached.

Chang Lu is one of the individuals trusted by Devon, alongside Finn. He wwas in charge of monitoring and commanding the people at his base.

"I don't give second chances," Devon remarked in a chilling voice. Meanwhile, the man in the corner was weeping, his face badly beaten by his men.

"Mr. Devon, p-please release me and I will never come back again," the man begged, even though it was typical for them to see someone being executed. It felt different when it was Devon who was the executioner.

"What would you like me to cut first?" Devon said as he awaited the axe. "Your left hand or your right hand? Or should I perhaps cut your tongue so that you cannot say a word?" Yet, he abruptly halted and could not proceed with his intentions. The man screamed, prompting Devon to raise an eyebrow.

"I know that you are not fond of women, but please take a look at the woman who was with me when I was caught," he said while kneeling, tears streaming down his face, and Devon's aura darkened further with his words.

"Why would I?" Devon replied, causing the entire room to fall silent.

"You will like her, Mr. Devon, because she resembles an angel," the man stammered. Devon managed to glance at Chang Lu, who was also on fear.

"Where is the woman?" Devon asked Chang Lu, leaving him and the others, including Finn, in shock. They could not believe what Devon Donovan had just said.

'Did he just ask where the woman is?' Finn thought to himself.

Even now the people in the basement could not process what their boss said. After all, Devon had never shown interest in any woman, especially not in those who were being pushed towards him or seemed to be sold off, like what this man had done.

"I hate repeating myself, Chang Lu!" Devon shouted, causing everyone to return to their individual thoughts.

Due to Chang Lu's fear, he could only point towards the door, indicating where the woman mentioned by the man was located.

The others were astonished by what their boss had displayed. They were unable to move from their positions because of Devon's aura. Meanwhile, Chang Lu and his members were only thinking that they had made a mistake, provoking the demon's anger.

On the other hand, the furious demon within Devon vanished as if by magic when he entered the room pointed out by Chang Lu. A pale woman lay on a bed, dressed in a white gown, which highlighted her paleness. However, the dress she wore was stained with blood as it was in the torture room. Therefore, it is only natural for it to be stained, yet Devon could not comprehend why he approached the young lady so quickly.

He examined her face and was even more surprised to find that the man was not lying. For indeed, her face resembled that of an angel.

Devon quickly held the young lady's face. He checked to see if she had any bruises, but he also breathed a sigh of relief upon noticing that she did not. Until Devon could not fathom why he suddenly became interested in the woman.

The man merely mentioned that she looked like an angel. And he was not disappointed because the young lady truly seemed to be an angel who had descended from heaven.

Devon took off the coat he was wearing to place it on the young lady. And although he had not yet developed feelings for any other girl, he could not restrain himself from instinctively touching her and feeling concern, particularly regarding her state.

He carried the lady in a bridal style before exiting through the door. Finn, who waited outside, felt as if he might faint from what he was witnessing and Devon directed his attention to the man.

"I think giving a second chance is not a bad idea," he said seriously, leaving everyone almost in disbelief. The unexpected events had unfolded dramatically.

"Mr. Devon, I am immensely grateful," the man expressed, and he began to cry even more, relieved that he would not lose his hand or tongue.

This was all due to the woman he had only seen on the street. He could not help but thank his thoughts, wondering if the woman was indeed an angel who had saved him from a demon.

"Bring the car," Devon commanded while admiring the woman with the angelic features.

"Boss, are you s-sure?" Finn boldly asked, and they all gulped at his question.

"Finn Lucas, are you questioning me?" Devon asked in a subdued tone. "No boss," Finn responded, quickly getting into the car, reflecting on his reckless actions and dared to question the mafia king.

'Finn Lucas, you have done nothing but question the mafia king,' Finn thought as he waited Devon's exit from the base. His mind continued to race until they arrived at Donovan Hacienda, where Devon's two other siblings also resided.

Meanwhile, Devon could not take his eyes off the woman peacefully sleeping in his arms. As soon as Devon stepped out of the car, the people in the hacienda immediately understood their responsibilities. They bow and greet him, as they had done for several years.

"Welcome back, Eldest young master," they all greeted Devon simultaneously. As they lifted their heads from their bowed position, it seemed as if their eyes were about to pop out and drool was about to spill from their mouth. Anyone who sees Devon Donovan standing before them would wonder if this is merely a prank or a doppelganger of Devon.

"This woman will be living here, and anyone who disrespects her also disrespects me." A chilling voice emerged from Devon's lips, and they all nodded in agreement without uttering a word.
