“R-Rebecca?”

I slowly lifted my head from where I’d been staring blankly and looked at the man in front of me, who suddenly felt like a stranger.

Was this really the man I had loved for nine years?

Judging by his expression, he had already seen the reason for my state.

“L-love, I can explain—”

He dropped to his knees in front of me and cupped my face, but the moment I remembered where those hands had been, anger surged through me. I slapped his hands away and shoved him back.

I grabbed the phot

  • The Mafia Lord's Temporary Wife   Memories

    “Is it delicious?” I asked Stephie softly.She nodded eagerly and even gave me a thumbs-up. “I could eat chicken forever as long as you’re the one cooking it, Mommy,” she said sweetly.“There’s literally nothing you don’t like,” Savvy teased his twin, making me shake my head.“So my cooking isn’t actually good, huh, Savvy?”He paused mid-bite with the marinated chicken breast I’d made and laughed. “Of course it’s good!”I laughed too and ruffled his hair affectionately. I watched the two of them happily eating while cartoons played on the television.I cleared my throat when it suddenly started itching, then touched my forehead to check if I had a fever.I’d been perfectly fine last night. I’d even stayed at the hospital again to watch over Stephie despite Steffano insisting that he stay instead—or that we hire a caregiver for her.But Stephie didn’t want to be left alone with a maid or a nurse, so in the end, I stayed.And just like the past few nights, I woke up from another nightma

    “What the hell did you do to my wife?!” Steffano shouted the moment his eyes dropped to my blouse.A few of the buttons had come undone when Gary grabbed me earlier, exposing part of my bra.The look in Steffano’s eyes made it obvious he was seconds away from attacking the doctor if I hadn’t immediately grabbed his arm.“Don’t, Steffano. I’m okay,” I said quickly, shaking my head at him because I knew things would only get worse if he hurt Gary.He shut his eyes tightly and took a deep breath before removing his suit jacket, draping it over my shoulders.“Your wife?” Gary asked slowly. “May I ask what your wife’s name is, sir?”“What business is that of yours?” Steffano shot back coldly.Steffano wrapped an arm around me and faced Gary fully. “Who exactly are you to question my wife’s identity?”“I-I’m Olivia’s friend. Gary. I was one of the medical aides who took care of her in Maryland while I worked there. I wouldn’t be acting like this if your wife had simply told me she wasn’t my

  • The Mafia Lord's Temporary Wife   Who are you?

    “Are you okay, sweetheart?” I asked Stephie the moment she was transferred from the ICU to a VIP room."I'm feeling b-better now, Mommy."I let out a relieved breath at Stephie’s answer and gently brushed my fingers through her hair. After thanking the nurses and doctors who had transferred her to the VIP room from the ICU and checked on her condition, they finally left the room.“What about you, Mommy? Are you okay?”I smiled and sat beside her bed. “Of course I am. You’re recovering so well.”“But you keep yawning,” she pointed out softly. “Are you sleepy?”“A little,” I admitted with a laugh. “I got excited when they told me you were finally being moved out of the ICU. That means you’re getting stronger.”“Where’s Dad and Savvy?”“Oh, Savvy was still asleep when I left this morning. Your daddy said he’ll bring him here around lunchtime. Are you excited to see him?”I hadn’t woken Savvy up earlier and had left him with one of the house staff instead, reminding them to call me immedi

  • The Mafia Lord's Temporary Wife   Geraldine's POV

    GERALDINEWhy did they look so alike?Who was that woman?And if she wasn’t Rebecca… then was it possible she was—I jumped when my phone suddenly rang.I cursed under my breath the moment I saw the caller ID. I’d been ignoring his calls for weeks, but this time, I answered.“Baby, come on, why haven’t you been answering me?”“Don’t ‘baby’ me,” I snapped. “I know exactly why you’re calling, Dino. You need money again.”“Oh, wow. Your life gets better and suddenly your attitude changes too.”I pulled a cigarette from my pack and placed it between my lips, only to stop when I realized I was still inside the hospital restroom.Annoyed, I threw it into the sink and dragged a hand through my hair.“You’ve already gotten enough from me,” I continued bitterly. “How many times have I given you money? And you never pay me back.”“It’s just ten grand, Gie. Come on. I got stuck here in Chicago. I can’t get back and I’ve got gigs lined up.”I clenched my jaw.The man had done nothing for years ex

  • The Mafia Lord's Temporary Wife   Who is she?

    “Are you sure you don’t want to sleep with us tonight?” I asked, gently brushing my fingers through Savvy’s hair while he got ready for bed.“I’ll pass tonight,” he replied, making me laugh softly. “Stephie will get mad if she finds out I had you and Dad all to myself.”I leaned down and kissed his forehead. “If you need Mommy for anything, just come to our room, okay?”“Yes, I will.”“Goodnight, Savvy.”“Goodnight, Mommy,” he murmured, already closing his eyes.I left the bedside lamp on before quietly stepping out of his room.I nearly jumped in surprise when I turned around and saw Steffano leaning against the doorway, watching Savvy and me. Judging by the look on his face, he’d probably been standing there for a while.“Why are you trying to scare me?”He smirked. “Why are you so easy to scare?”I rolled my eyes and nudged him out of Savvy’s room. He immediately caught my hand and lifted it to his lips.“Thank you.”I sighed. “What are you thanking me for this time, Steffano?”“Fo

    “She’s already responsive. Since she can breathe on her own now, we’ve removed the ventilator,” the doctor who performed Stephie’s surgery explained. “She’s been asking for you—especially her mom. If her condition continues to improve, we can transfer her out of the ICU in a day or two.”I tightened my grip on Steffano’s hand at the news.“And by the way,” the doctor added gently, “I heard about what happened before her last attack. I’m sorry. But please make sure not to say anything that might trigger strong emotions. Her condition is still delicate—her body is still adjusting to the new heart.”“Yes, doctor. Thank you again,” I said sincerely.“You can see her now. I’ll leave you to it. Just call if you need anything.”As soon as the doctor left, Steffano and I entered the ICU hand in hand.A nurse who had been monitoring Stephie stood up and quietly excused herself.Stephie’s eyes were closed at first… but after a few seconds, they slowly opened.“M…Mommy?”I could read her lips.S

    “Mommy! Don’t go!”I cried out as I watched my mom dragging her suitcase toward the door.I struggled against Grandma’s grip and ran after her, throwing my arms around her waist.“Please don’t go, Mommy! I—I promise I’ll be good!”She gently pried my arms away and knelt in front of me.“I’m sorry,

    “Dad, put an apron on Mom. She forgot to wear one,” Savvy instructed.He conveniently ignored the fact that he wasn’t wearing one either—his shirt already dusted with flour.“And why did you remind me about your mom but not me?” Steffano asked.

    “W-what are those?” I asked, my voice trembling as I stared at the wall.Even though it felt like knives were stabbing into my chest, I couldn’t look away—especially from the photos of Tim.“That’s the crime scene,” Steffano said evenly. &ld

    I was about to enter Tim’s hospital room when his mother stopped me.“Rebecca, can you buy us some drinks? We need to calm down. I almost passed out when I received your call—my God! What happened? Who would do something like this to my son?”I glanced at Timothy through the small window and nodded
