He continued, “You are my wife. Cristiano Vitelli’s wife. You could easily become the target of my enemies. Your safety will never be compromised.”

Cristiano Vitelli’s wife.

His wife.

The words echoed inside her. His tone was cold and matter-of-fact, but her hopelessly romantic heart clung to the hidden meaning—he was protecting her. For the first time, she felt a corner of his heart belonged to her.

Her cheeks flushed crimson, especially when her thoughts drifted back to what had happened between them in the bathroom. Flustered, she turned her face toward the window, hiding her blush from his gaze.

She didn’t even realize when the college gates appeared. He stopped the car but didn’t get out to open the door for her, as her hopelessly romantic heart had expected from her husband. With a quiet sigh, she unbuckled her seatbelt and began to step out.

“I’ll send the car to pick you up after college,” he said briefly, his tone distant. She nodded.

For a moment, she lingered there, waiting

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 247. I Am Yours

    Siena rose from her chair the moment she saw her husband entering the mansion. Though Cristiano’s steps were steady and controlled, she could tell he was drunk from his appearance. Before coming home, Cristiano had parked his car on a deserted street and drank until he couldn’t feel a thing. Even when his bodyguards offered to drive him home, he stubbornly refused, insisting on driving himself, as if he had no fear of death—as if he were daring it to take him and end the misery this life had given him.When he finally arrived home, he expected the house to be quiet, everyone asleep, since it was already past one in the morning. He could have sprawled onto the sofa and spent the night in peace, but the moment his eyes fell on his wife, frustration surged through him, tangled with the confusion clouding his mind.As Siena hurried toward him, she reached for the jacket in his hand. His grip wasn’t firm, and it slipped away from his grasp before he could resist.“Have you had dinner?” she

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 246. It’s Never Too Late

    Siena had been troubled after seeing Fabio. Why had he come now? Why now, when she had finally begun to move on, to forget him? Everything had changed—everything they had once planned together lay in ruins. And yet, here he was, claiming he still loved her, even though she was now married to another man.But what about his engagement to another woman? He was the one who had broken up with her. He had shattered her heart so brutally that she hadn’t believed she would ever find the courage to love again—until Cristiano came into her life.Cristiano. The very thought of him was enough to bring a smile to her face. He had made her believe in true love again and shown her how love could heal.But then Fabio’s words echoed in her mind: “Your husband is not what you think.”What had he meant by that? Was he trying to play with her mind and heart again? Why should she trust a man who had once betrayed her so deeply, humiliating her before the entire college and even her own family by announcin

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter. 245. Attachment Is Poison

    Cristiano’s mood was black when he returned to his office. But another surprise was waiting for him. His father was waiting for him in his office.“Come with me,” Vittorio said the moment Cristiano stepped in. Cristiano’s jaw tightened. “Where?”“You’ll see,” Vittorio replied smoothly, rising from the chair. He didn’t explain further and led his son to his car. As the car pulled near Hunter’s club, Cristiano’s jaw tightened. He understood. His glare cut toward his father, but Vittorio only chuckled.“I know you’ve been wound up,” Vittorio said, gesturing to the neon-drenched entrance. “The marriage, the new weight of leadership… it must be exhausting. So I brought you here.”Inside, the air was heavy—dim lights flickered over leather booths, the musk of sex and powdery bite of cocaine laced every breath. Hunter emerged from the shadows, tall and grinning, his hand extended. “Boss.”Cristiano clasped it, eyes unreadable.Vittorio smirked, his voice dipped with sly amusement. “Take c

    Siena didn’t know how to react at first and froze at the sight of Fabio before her. But within seconds, she recovered, lifted her chin, and strode forward.“Siena, baby,” Fabio jogged after her, grabbing her elbow to stop her.“Don’t fucking touch me!” Siena snapped, yanking her elbow free as she spun on her heel to face him. Her eyes blazed with fury as she glared at him. “I know you’re upset, but please—listen to me,” he pleaded.“Don’t waste your time, because you don’t even exist for me,” Siena replied coldly.His lips curved into a pained smile, his eyes full of remorse. “I love you,” he whispered, his voice trembling with raw emotion. “I never stopped.”Siena frowned, confusion flickering before her expression hardened. “Stop this bullshit. I’m no longer that naive girl blinded by your love. I’m a married woman now, and I love my husband.” Her calm, steady voice carried more weight than a scream.Fabio stared at her in disbelief, utterly speechless.“So don’t ever follow me agai

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 243. First Love

    Cristiano woke up early and stared at Siena’s sleeping face for a while. She was so different from what he had expected. When his grandmother had slapped her, he thought she would confront him for not standing up for her, but she hadn’t even mentioned it. He had assumed she would be upset about their honeymoon being canceled, yet she surprised him again by saying she was ready to consummate their marriage regardless.All of this stirred something in his frozen heart, a strange feeling that left him unsettled. He detached himself from her, got up, and went to the bathroom without even going to the gym. After getting ready for the office, he left before she even woke up.When Siena woke up, she found the room empty, and the wet bathroom floor told her that Cristiano had already showered and left for the office. Perhaps he had some urgent work and needed to leave early, she thought, and began getting ready for the day. Yet, yesterday morning’s incidents kept coming back, bitter memories l

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 242. God’s Favourite

    But he went to his side and sat down on the mattress, slipping off his slippers before lying back on the bed. “Should I turn off the light?” he asked in his deep, husky tone. Siena nodded, biting her lips. His arms stretched out to reach the switch, and then, lying on his back, he folded one arm over his eyes and closed them. Siena lay on her side, her gaze still fixed on him. He didn’t make any intimate moves tonight—not even a touch or a kiss. Was it because she had said she wanted to wait for their honeymoon? Oh God, he was such a gentle man. Her heart sighed with admiration for the man she had married. They hadn’t known each other before their marriage, yet he had told her he loved her—and now, every action of his showed just how deeply he cared. In this moment, she felt truly like God’s favorite, as He had granted her the wish of finding true love. She felt like… like she had already been falling… for him—and who could blame her? He was perfect… in every way. Before she co
