Leonardo had tracked his wife, following the faintest leads, shaking down anyone who might know something. When he finally located her, he didn’t hesitate.

The door splintered under his weight as he rammed through, gun raised, breathing hard from the chase. But he froze at the sight inside.

Sofia was on the floor, her hands and ankles bound tightly with rough rope, her face pale, bruised, terrified. And standing between them was Ava, her eyes wild, her hand trembling as she aimed a pistol—now pulled from her handbag, directly at Sofia's head.

Sofia’s eyes filled with hope the moment she saw Leonardo. Her voice was weak, barely more than a whisper. “Leonardo… save our baby.” It was the only fear in her heart.

“Sofia,” Leonardo breathed, his heart clenching. He rushed to her side, everything else fading away.

“Don’t come any closer!” Ava barked, the gun jerking slightly in her grip.

Leonardo stopped instantly, raising one hand while keeping the other on his weapon. His voice dropped low

Hated that character from the time she came in. I must say, for the amount of hatred I had for that character, it means you are a great writer!

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 371. I’ll Handle

    Cristiano turned to look at Siena and found a storm of questions blazing openly in her eyes. But instead of answering, he faced forward again. The man in the driver’s seat glanced at her through the rearview mirror.“Drive. Hurry,” Cristiano ordered.The car shot forward, speeding down the road.Minutes passed. Siena’s frustration kept building, coiling tighter in her chest, until she could no longer contain it.“Is anyone going to tell me what’s going on?” she snapped.Cristiano and Fabio exchanged a brief glance. Fabio stayed silent.Cristiano spoke instead, his tone calm, almost maddeningly so. “Do you still not get it?”“Get what?” Siena shot back.He sighed, as if the answer should have been obvious. “How could anyone possibly take my wife out of my territory—right under my watch?” he said, lifting a brow.Siena froze.The pieces began falling into place. The rushed escape. The perfect timing. Fabio’s sudden presence. Everything she hadn’t questioned before.Her breath caught.

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 370. The Culprit

    Cristiano’s eyes turned cold, his expression deadly, and Siena’s heart sank in gloom. “Your uncle… the Pakhan’s younger brother,” he replied, his voice stripped of all warmth.Siena finally let out the breath she had been holding, waiting for his answer.A wave of relief washed over her when she realized her father had not been responsible. Had he been, she would never have forgiven Cristiano—never. Yet she was still upset that Nikolai had protected the guilty instead of handing the culprit over to the Italian Mafia. He hadn’t punished his brother for assaulting and killing a woman, for dragging an innocent life into a brutal rivalry that was never hers to bear.And for that sin, Siena had paid the price.Years stolen. A life torn apart. Taken from her family and used as a pawn, all in the name of revenge that had never truly been hers.“Now hurry,” he ordered, impatience creeping in.She dragged a bag out from under the bed, its fabric scraping softly against the floor, and began st

    After a while, Siena was fully dressed again. Cristiano was already pulling on his pants, tucking his shirt in with quick, practiced movements.“Siena, we’re leaving. Now,” he said quietly.“But how?” she whispered, then frowned as another thought struck her. “Why haven’t they started searching for you yet? Don’t they know you’re missing by now?”Cristiano’s mouth curved into a cold, knowing smirk. “Because your father didn’t keep me anywhere near this mansion.”Siena stiffened.“He kept me in a separate facility,” Cristiano continued. “A secure holding base. Far from here.”Siena’s eyes widened.Siena’s eyes widened in realization.When he saw the shock on her face, he nodded once, confirming it. “Yeah. That’s right. And I don’t feel bad about it—no matter what, we’re sworn enemies.” His voice hardened. “What hurt me was thinking you’d be safe with your father because he’s a powerful mafia leader. I was wrong. All he cared about was his reputation—not even his own children.”His jaw

    His eyes narrowed, searching hers.“Are you kidding me, doll?!” His voice was deceptively calm, almost soft, but every word carried a storm. “You don’t know? Then why the hell did you send that text? You made me want to burn the whole world just for letting you go… cross seven oceans… face a thousand hells… just to bring you back to me.”“I still have a week until my next period, so I can’t be sure if I’m really pregnant. But I texted you,” she admitted, voice barely above a whisper, hesitating. “…because I wanted to see whether you’d come for me or not. ”He kissed her forehead, smiling softly. His doll was smarter than he thought of her—she knew exactly how to use his weakness.She was his weakness.“But if I hadn’t texted you… would you have really given up on me?” she asked, her lips pouting, a soft note of complaint in her voice.Cristiano sighed, resting his forehead against hers. “I don’t know, doll… but I’m glad you played that little trick, and I came for you.”“So… it means…

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 367. Can’t Wait

    Cristiano bit his bottom lip as he watched his wife, ready to tell her everything—because now there was nothing left to hide. Nothing he wanted to keep secret between them.“You weren’t safe there,” he murmured, pain etched deep into his features. His hand came up, rubbing over his eyes as if the weight of it all was finally crushing him.“Then what were you for?” she shot back, her voice shaking with fury as she struck his chest with her fist. “If you couldn’t even keep me safe!”“I was helpless,” he admitted, his shoulders lifting in a defeated shrug. “My family… and then you. I couldn’t choose.”Couldn’t choose? When he had already chosen them over her.Her breath hitched. Rage and heartbreak twisted together as she shoved him again—harder this time—but he didn’t move an inch.“Then why did you come now?” she demanded, tears burning her eyes. “Why are you here? Tell me. Go back to your family, then.”He stepped closer, his voice low, rough with truth and desperation.“Because no m

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 366. And Only You

    “So you’re really going to marry that bastard,” Cristiano said hoarsely, fury lacing every word, “while you’re pregnant with my child?”Siena frowned, pain flashing across her face as she pushed herself off the bed. His eyes followed her every step, unblinking, as if she might vanish if he looked away for even a second. She stopped right in front of him.And then her hand rose, colliding with his cheek. The sound of the slap cracked through the room.“You’re always so selfish,” she whisper-yelled, her body shaking with anger and hurt. “You only ever think about yourself.”She glared at him, lips trembling, the light in her eyes dimming as she added in a low, broken tone, “And how do you even know it’s your child?”Cristiano closed his eyes, his jaw tightening as if fighting for control—but in the next heartbeat, he moved. Suddenly, he was too close. One hand locked around her waist while the other gripped the back of her neck, dragging her closer as he surged forward and crushed his l
