THALIA ISABELLE

The captain of the private plane announced that we are taking off now so I put my seatbelt on and look outside of the window.

“Goodbye, Philippines,” I murmured as I felt the plane takes off from the ground defying gravity. When the captain announced it is safe to remove the seatbelt, I removed it. “Happy?” I mockingly ask Giovanni who is reading on his gadget.

He looks at me using his brown and cold eyes.

“I am,” he answered and that made me piss more. “Look, Thalia. We’re on a plane and the last thing we can do is bicker. Do you want to eat or drink something?” he said instead of adding fuel to my anger right now.

“Giovanni, kindly tell me why the hell on earth you want me to go with you to the Netherlands? I left that country and I don’t have plans on going back---“ I said and he did not let me finish my sentence.

“Well, you are going there now,” he said, turning off his tablet.

“Because you forced me to, you use the business against me, against my will,” I fi

  • The Mafia's Queen   CHAPTER 70

    My fingers are fidgeting nervously, I try to calm down, but I can't help it. We're inside Giovanni's office and his IT analysts are here. They were tracing the address of the sender and couldn't locate it. "Goddamn it!" I heard Giovanni curse as he kicked his table due to frustration. Another email was sent in my account, but this time it horrified me. A picture of our safe house where our family stays. Giovanni rushed over to the computer. "One wrong decision and they will be burned alive," he read the message from the sender. That broke me. I hate that I felt so helpless! Giovanni came to me and hugged me tightly. "They will be safe, I will dispatch the alpha team," he assured me but it didn't help. "I have to be there, please," I told him, and he shook his head. "You can't put yourself in danger, Thalia," he said and kissed my forehead. "I can't bear to lose another child, Giovanni. It would kill me, I have no will to live," I told him and he nodded. "They will be

  • The Mafia's Queen   CHAPTER 69

    Giovanni wore the cufflinks I bought for him yesterday, and I smiled because although they weren't from a signature brand, he carried them with the elegance of an expensive piece. We were in the middle of a meeting with the board members and directors, and I was serving as his executive assistant since Penelope was on leave. “Regardless of the profit we will receive from this new project, what other benefits could it bring us?” Giovanni asked the presenter. He was discussing the new project for the distillery company set to launch next year. “It's different from our signature product, Mr. Giovanni. The target market for this alcohol is women,” the presenter replied. Giovanni arched his right eyebrow and leaned forward with his hands on the table. “Isn't that cliché?” he questioned. No one dared to interrupt him. “It's not, Mr. Giovanni. Since we expanded our farm in Italy, we've developed new variants of grapes, and we will use them in our new product,” he confidently explai

  • The Mafia's Queen   CHAPTER 68

    The Stallion Corporation lost a major stockholder. Santi De Vries removed himself from the corporation. Those headlines that shook me, I thought it would take more than three weeks to make it happen but how come it happened in just a week? I looked at my husband who's just reading a document, we're at his office now, I came here to get the coffee he ordered online. "Giovanni, that fast?" I asked him and he smirked. "That's how a power talks, Thalia. What can I say, that's Santi," he said like it's just a normal thing. He is wearing his reading glasses, and it makes him look ten times hotter. He rolled his long sleeves up to his elbows and stood up. "Santi is a dangerous businessman, he doesn't mind leaving your partnership once he notices that your business will crumble soon," he said and drank his coffee. "Just like you," I told him and he arched his right eyebrow. "Really?" he asked with amusement, so I rolled my eyes at him. "Never mind," I told him, and I was about to leave

  • The Mafia's Queen   CHAPTER 67

    Scarlet and I went outside the office, letting the man discuss their deals. I couldn't keep my eyes off her because I was seeing the woman, in the flesh, my rival in Giovanni's heart whom I presumed dead. "Let's take a moment on the balcony," I invited her politely. She smiled with elegance and walked towards that direction. I admire her beauty, and she's older than me. However, she still looks young. The wind is blowing so the leaves from the trees are dancing freely. "I didn't know this place existed before," she said and roamed her eyes around the place; I chuckled, "Giovanni is a secretive person," I commented, and she nodded with a contented smile on her face. "Thalia, I want to apologise for everything that happened in the past," she said, and I froze on the spot because I didn't expect her to talk about it. "I appreciate you for opening the topic, Scarlet, because I don't know where to start," I told her honestly, and she smiled. "Thalia, if I became brave enough

  • The Mafia's Queen   CHAPTER 66

    I was reviewing some documents that my assistant sent me when I received a message from Giovanni. I am currently in our office. I lost track of my company for the past few weeks, and I am afraid that it will crumble, but good thing my brother runs it for a while. I closed my laptop and fixed the papers on my desk. I stomped my feet on the floor because Giovanni was asking for my presence in his meeting! As if I'll contribute to something! "Wife, let's go," Giovanni said, and I was startled because I didn't realize he was behind me and held my waist. "Giovanni!" I said. He chuckled as he put his chin on my shoulder and kissed my neck. "Is that too important that it requires my presence?" I asked him and he nodded. "Yes, wife," he said. "Well, what can I do?" I stated. I stepped backwards when I realized who we were going to meet, we were in the meeting room, and they were here; Scarlet smiled when she saw me. I force myself to smile because I don't want her to think I'm

  • The Mafia's Queen   CHAPTER 65

    "Be careful! Her husband is the mafia boss, and she belongs to a powerful family in another continent," I heard someone say. "Giovanni will never learn if we touch her. This is once in a blue moon to see a goddess in our lair," he said and they laughed. "Don't touch her, or else we will be sent to hell instantly," the other man said, and he looked like he was their boss because his words mattered to these idiots. I slowly opened my eyes, and I realized my hands and feet were tied in a chair. My neck hurt, but I kept my head down; I thought deeply about how we ended up like this. As we passed by the road, our cars were cornered by these assholes, and we weren't able to fight back because we got cornered. Once I was released, I was going to torture them and tear their limbs! They will not have an easy death. "The Stallion will come any moment," I heard someone say. My eyes got bigger in shock, but I composed myself, so I raised my head. "Stallion, huh?" I mockingly said.
