[Darcy]

I didn't wait for Taylor to stop the car. I unlocked and pulled the door knob. My cousin called my name, preventing me from exiting the SUV. I ignored her shouts and jumped out.

Many reporters were at the entrance, but Scott helped me get past them. Unbelievable. Even though I was wearing sunglasses and a facemask, they could recognize me. The press was scrambling to ask questions. Fortunately, the security guards opened the way for me.

“Boss won't like this,” Scott said.

“He won't know if you don't tell,” I retorted.

I approached the nurse station and asked about Keane. They refused to tell me any information about the baby. After I mentioned I was his biological mother, and Scott drew his gun, they shared his ward number.

Taylor walked with me to the room. We took the elevator to the top floor. Keane was in one of the VIP rooms, the heavily secured place. I might be unable to get in, but I wouldn't give up.

“You can't come in,” Joseph stood before me as I exited the elevator

  • The Mafia's Frozen Bride   118|Farewell Party

    [Darcy]Scott overreacted last night. After experiencing a shooting and a helicopter crash, I wasn't afraid of a similar situation. If I showed fear, Sinclair's enemies would make me their punching bag.I locked my door before going to bed. Sinclair was stubborn at Savannah's wedding reception. I didn't care if people called me a liar. He shouldn’t have come and announced our marriage by sitting beside me or dancing with me.That declaration wouldn’t change my mind. I wanted us to divorce. Therefore, Sinclair had to train himself to sleep in his bedroom and stop coming to my bed. Unfortunately, he managed to get into the room. I didn’t know how he could open the lock from the outside when there was a key stuck inside.“Which one of you opened my bedroom door last night?” I asked Scott and Rocco.The two men exchanged glances. “We’re not boss’s assistants or bodyguards,” Scott replied. “He might have asked Neil for help.”“Damn it,” I muttered.“After the boss kept entering your apartm

  • The Mafia's Frozen Bride   117|The Truth

    Neil came with a straight face, but I saw him smiling as he unlocked the door. After turning the knob, he gestured for me to go in. I signaled with a shake of my head for him to leave.My hunch was accurate. Marriage only added problems and ruined the peace of my life. Darcy locked her bedroom door. Did she think I didn't have a spare key? I took a deep breath before entering the room.Seeing that she was asleep, I pushed aside my annoyance. Darcy knew Cullen had left her a large sum of money. Therefore, she didn't need me to pay off her debts. Fortunately, I hadn't felt like touching her for the past few days.“Good morning, Dad!” Dashiell greeted me in my bedroom.“Good morning.” I ruffled his hair as he hugged my legs.“We made lots of cookies yesterday, Dad! Bran gave Boyd and me some cookies before dinner. They were delicious! My friends will love them!” he said.“Good job. Come on. Let’s have breakfast. We have a lot to prepare before we go there.” I took his hand. His dog ran a

  • The Mafia's Frozen Bride   116|A Special Guest

    [Sinclair]“Do you really want to have a mother and brother? I asked, stalling for time.“Yes, Dad. You work every day and don’t play with me. If I had a mother and brother, I would have friends at home,” he answered.I looked around us. There were twenty workers in the house. They didn’t work twenty-four hours a day because they only served Dashiell, Darcy, and me. The rooms they cleaned daily were only ours; the other rooms were not.The servants liked to accompany my son while he played. They would be in the playroom, garden, or viewing room. Dashiell was never alone. Yet he felt he had no friends at home. I understood. The presence of servants was not the same as the role of a mother and a sibling.“You have a big responsibility if you have a younger brother, Dad,” I said.“What is responsibility, Dad?” he asked.“Responsibility is a task you must do. If you have a younger brother, you have some older brother’s responsibilities. Do you want to love your younger brother?”“Yes! I c

  • The Mafia's Frozen Bride   115|Jealous Rage

    Sinclair held my hand and lowered it. I complied to avoid disrupting our dance. “I know this dance means a lot to you,” he said.I pressed my lips together and ended our dance. I could break free from him when we applauded the singer accompanying us. Before Sinclair could say anything, I turned and walked toward our table.But someone was standing in front of me, blocking my way. He turned and smiled at Sinclair. “May I dance with your woman?” Frederick asked.“You need her permission, not mine,” Sinclair corrected.The man turned to me. “Would you like to dance with me?” he asked.My heart raced at Sinclair's cold, slightly threatening tone, but I wasn't afraid. I placed my hand on Frederick's palm. “Sure,” I answered.I glanced at Sinclair before following the man to the dance floor. He only stared at me indifferently. Though the slow music accompanied us, Frida’s husband remained polite, keeping a distance between us. I followed his steps and didn’t take control.“Thank you for sav

  • The Mafia's Frozen Bride   114|Public Appearance

    [Darcy]I had to meet Mason on Monday. It was my only day off. If my guess about the Cullen inheritance was correct, I might have enough money to pay off my father's debt to Sinclair. I had to break away from that nightclub.I needed to meet with a lawyer I could trust to handle my divorce from Sinclair. I didn’t care if the man refused to sign the papers or withdraw the case from court. I would keep filing for divorce because I couldn’t forgive his mistake.Why should we stay together if I can’t stand to look at him or touch him? I was not God. I was only an ordinary human who couldn’t easily forgive such a great mistake.“Are you and Sinclair fighting again?” Kirsten asked, breaking my reverie.We had just finished practice. “Why do you say that?”“I know you’re living with him.” She glanced at my right hand. “You’re married.”I covered my hand with a towel. “Since we’re done practicing, may I leave?” I asked, changing the subject.Kirsten smiled meaningfully. “Of course. You need t

  • The Mafia's Frozen Bride   113|New Owner

    Darcy entered the car. I turned to Scott and nodded to him. The man got into the vehicle, and Rocco drove toward the house. I stood by the roadside, watching them depart, moving further away.I felt a pain in my chest. An ache I hadn’t felt in a long time. What was it? Could I fall in love with Darcy? Was that why I didn’t want to let her go? Why her? Why did I fall in love with a woman with a dark past?That woman wouldn’t fall in love again. Her experiences with men were enough to make her wary. Her regret over her late husband complicated her ability to open her heart to a new man. Therefore, she wanted a divorce.Besides, she was right. My deed was unforgivable. I made a big mistake by conceiving a child from our seeds without her permission. How could I seek her forgiveness and make her willing to grow old with me?“Are we going to the casino?” Neil asked.“Yes,” I replied.The place was part of the same complex as the nightclub. The manager reported that some gaming machines nee
