Leonardo was completely taken aback by Evelyn’s sudden, unexpected move. The moment her hands shot around his neck, gripping tightly, his instincts screamed for him to react. But why had he allowed himself to trust her again? He berated himself internally, angry for letting his guard down even for a second.

“What do you think you’re doing, Evelyn Anderson?” His voice trembled with a mix of anger, disappointment, and disbelief. “You said you wanted to talk. I should have known better than to fall for your old tricks.”

With a swift, practiced motion, he ripped her hands from his neck, the tension in his body turning to frustration as he pushed her away. The air between them crackled with resentment.

“Please forgive me,” Evelyn begged, her voice suddenly softer, coated with false remorse. “I truly regret what I did—breaking your heart, throwing it all away. I was a fool back then. But I’m ready to make things right. I swear, I can change…”

Her words spilled out too quickly, meaningless a

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 351. I Need Time

    She had never felt tortured. Never treated like a hostage. During their marriage, he had done nothing but make her feel wanted, protected… cherished.Until today.If her real father wanted her so badly, why hadn’t he come himself? Was he afraid of Cristiano Vitelli—or was she simply not important enough to face him?The answer tasted bitter.Whatever the truth was, one thing had become terrifyingly clear: Her husband’s power ran so deep that even other dons hesitated to step into his territory.She couldn't respond for several long moments, her distant gaze gave her away. She was lost in thought—torn.Fabio leaned forward, urgency sharpening his tone. “What are you thinking about? Let’s go. Everything is ready. We’ll disappear from here.”Siena exhaled slowly. Then, after a pause heavy with realization, she said, “I can’t make a decision this fast. I need time.”Frustration flickered across Fabio’s face.“Time?” he snapped. “Siena, your life is in danger. This isn’t something you

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 350. Traitors

    “What do you mean?” Siena frowned, suspicion tightening her features.“Exactly what I said. Every word.” Lino didn’t repeat himself—he stood by it.Siena’s frown deepened. “And why would you do that?” Her voice dropped. “Go against your Don?”A bitter smirk tugged at Lino’s lips—empty, pained. “Because I hate him,” he said flatly. “Because of Cristiano Vitelli, I’m trapped in this life. I can’t be with the woman I love.” His jaw tightened. “All I want is revenge.”He stepped closer, facing her fully now. “That’s why I’ll help you disappear. I want to see that look on his face—the moment he realizes he’s not untouchable.” Lino lifted his chin. “He thinks he’s smarter than everyone. That fear rules this world. That no one dares defy him.” His eyes hardened. “He’s wrong.”Siena stared at him, shaken. She couldn’t believe her husband was surrounded by traitors. Then again… why should she care?He was the one who had betrayed her—her trust, their marriage. Men like this suited him.“Signo

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 349. A New Direction

    Shock flickered across her face. She looked at her parents, then at Vittorio. His brows knitted into a frown as he intervened, “Can’t you see that his hand is injured?”Carina nodded stiffly and slipped the ring onto her own finger.Then she picked up the man’s ring and held it out to him.Cristiano extended his palm without looking at her. “I’ll wear it later.”Carina stared at him, disbelief tightening her expression, before she slowly placed the ring into his blood-smeared hand.“That’s enough,” Cristiano said, his voice cold and final. “The engagement is over. Everyone can leave.”And with that, he turned and walked out of the hall—authoritative, unyielding—leaving behind stunned faces and a room thick with confusion.Vittorio quickly stepped in, forcing a composed smile. “His mood is… unstable today. He’ll be fine later.”Soraya gasped as Cristiano passed her. Anger still burned in her chest over what he had done to Siena—but seeing blood streaking down her son’s knuckles pier

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 348. Against The Heart’s Will

    Despite everything—despite the lies, the manipulation, the cruelty—she could feel nothing from him but love and longing.And he kept denying it.Her strength finally gave out.“Please… end this,” she pleaded, exhaustion seeping into every word. “I’m tired. I can’t bear it anymore.”Cristiano exhaled slowly, a quiet sigh heavy with restraint.“Doll,” he said, his voice edged with steel, though his hand lingered on her back, trying to steady her trembling. “I’ll admit… I’ve grown used to you. But habits can be broken.” His gaze darkened, sharp and unyielding. “And people… they can be replaced. Easily,” he said, his tone expertly cold, practiced.“So accept it,” he continued. “I only love power. I don’t want you anymore.”Yet no matter how cold his voice sounded, his hand wiped her tears from her cheeks and smoothed her hair. He couldn’t bear her pain.He was supposed to hurt her, to maintain the act—but she was right. He couldn’t bear to see her in pain. The dilemma he carried—the war

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 347. Sharing Him

    Cristiano stiffened. Just for a fraction of a second—but she saw it. The sharp clench of his jaw. The flash of fear that crossed his eyes before he could bury it beneath indifference.Siena smiled weakly.Such a liar.He claimed he didn’t love her, yet here he was—afraid. Afraid of losing her.A bitter satisfaction mixed with the ache in her chest. If he could lie to her so easily, make her cry like this, then he deserved to feel this fear. She just closed her eyes as her finger tightened slowly on the trigger.Cristiano moved before the shot could ever happen.The gun was ripped from her hand in one swift, violent motion, now trapped in his steely grip as if he would never release it. He crushed her against his chest, his arms locking around her like iron, leaving her no space to move.“What do you think you’re doing, doll?” he snarled, fury reverberating through his voice as he held her tight.“Let me go!” she sobbed, thrashing against him, fists pounding uselessly against his chest

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 346. Tell Me This Is A Lie

    “No,” she said instantly, without hesitation. “I won’t leave you.”Cristiano’s gaze hardened further, his jaw tightening.“It’s you and me,” she continued, her gaze remaining locked onto his face the whole time, her voice trembling yet unyielding. “We’ll leave all of this behind—everything. Just take me away from here.”Tears slipped down her cheeks as she stepped closer, her hands clutching his jacket as though letting go would break her completely. “I don’t care where we go. I don’t care how we live—as long as I’m with you.”Her breath hitched. “Let’s run away. Leave this world of blood and revenge behind.”She looked up at him, eyes shining with fragile hope. “Just… just you and me.”For a moment, there was silence. Then his voice cut through her hope like a blade.“Enough,” he said flatly. “I’m not leaving this. This is everything I’ve ever wanted, and now I’m claiming it all. I don’t want you. If you can’t accept that, that’s your problem.”He leaned closer, his eyes devoid of
