The Mafia's Substitute Bride Chapter 255. Witnessing A Miracle
“You’re coming, boss?!” Toni, one of the men, asked, his voice thick with shock.Cristiano’s eyes narrowed slightly, but his voice remained dangerously calm. “What… can’t I come with you?”Toni instantly regretted asking. He knew better than to question the Don.“No, Don, I… I… I mean…” Toni stammered, stumbling over his words. “You—you refused to go earlier, that’s why I… I was confused.”Cristiano let out a low, dismissive “Hmm,” as if the matter was beneath him.Toni let out a breath of relief. His eyes softened, and he silently thanked whatever forces kept the Don from being in a bad mood today. He’d live to see another sunrise.But Hunter’s sharp eyes studied the Don with a calculating, knowing look. If Cristiano had changed his decision, there had to be a reason behind it—a very important reason.“Boss, I need a few days off,” Lino, another one of the men, blurted out abruptly.Cristiano’s cold gaze didn’t lift from his glass. He simply swirled the amber liquid, his expression u
The Mafia's Substitute Bride Chapter 254. Priorities
After a few minutes, Vittorio also left for the office. Elena stayed behind, waiting for Siena so they could leave for college together. Still heavy-hearted, Siena picked up her books and bag, about to leave for college as planned.“Where are you going?” The grandmother’s sharp voice made her stop in her tracks.“College,” Siena replied casually.“Don’t go today. Come to my room. My feet are aching—I need a massage,” the grandmother summoned with authority.Siena was caught off guard. She glanced at Soraya, silently asking for help.“Mother, I’m free until lunchtime. I can give you a good massage,” Soraya quickly offered, trying to rescue the situation.But the grandmother shot her a burning glare. “No. Your old hands can’t work properly. I need my granddaughter-in-law. She should be the one to serve me.”“She probably doesn’t even know how to give you a proper massage,” Soraya muttered in a low voice, still trying to intervene. “You won’t get any relief from the pain.”“That’s exactl
The Mafia's Substitute Bride Chapter 253. Love At Second Sight
“Ever heard of love at second sight—or third, fourth, fifth sight?” she asked, biting the corner of her bottom lip mischievously.He furrowed his brow in annoyance.“No?!” she giggled. “Then watch it happen for the first time. I fell for you, Cristiano Vitelli.”Cristiano felt his throat tighten and his mouth go dry. He hadn’t expected this from her—not now, not acting like this. His jaw clenched, fists tightening at his sides. He exhaled sharply and barked, “Stop thinking nonsense. Let me leave for the office—I’m already late for my meeting.”He could have grabbed her arm and shoved her away, but instead, he stood still, lowering his hands to his sides.“Oops… sorry,” she giggled softly, slowly removing her arms and pulling away from him.Without glancing back, he strode toward the door. Siena’s heart sank, something twisting deep inside her—something darker than sadness… something like fear. He hadn’t questioned her about Fabio when she thought he would. Was that why he’d been so co
The Mafia's Substitute Bride Chapter 252. Freedom
Her smile faltered, and she kept staring at him, unblinking, as he pulled another tie from the closet and began wrapping it around his neck, carefully forming a perfect knot. She bit her lip, uncertain what she had done to upset him. He had seemed fine until this morning.He moved his head from side to side, searching for his wallet, while her hand—already holding it, intending to give it to him—raised instinctively.“What do you want?” he said sharply.She lowered her gaze, and just as her hand began to drop the wallet onto a closet shelf for him to pick up, Cristiano took it from her.“I don’t like anyone handling my things. Just don’t bother, doll,” he murmured, his voice softening now—tender, almost concerned. At once, she lifted her head, her smile returning. She watched as he applied gel and combed his hair back, then applied cologne, his expression still cold and indifferent. Then he moved to the small bench in the closet and sat down, rolling up the cuffs of his trousers. Me
The Mafia's Substitute Bride Chapter 251. A Shy Offering
The next morning, Cristiano woke with a low groan, realizing his right shoulder and arm had gone numb. Blinking his eyes open in irritation, he found the reason: Siena’s beautiful face nestled against him, her head resting on his shoulder as if it were her personal pillow, her body curled into him as if he were her comforter.His annoyance melted instantly, replaced by the memories from last night. But as they came rushing back, a grimace pulled at his lips. What the hell had he done? What had he said under the influence of alcohol? He had never lost control while drunk—not once. So what had gotten into him last night?In truth, he didn’t want to accept that what he had said and done was his heart’s true desire. But he didn’t want to admit it. He just wanted to deny those feelings Siena had stirred in his heart.Carefully, he lifted her head from his shoulder and placed it on the pillow before slipping away. He changed into his exercise shorts, skipping a shirt, and headed straight to
The Mafia's Substitute Bride Chapter 250. Feeding His Hunger
Siena took a shaky breath as a hot sensation coursed through her, shooting straight to her throbbing core.“What are you waiting for, mia moglie? I’m hungry,” his deep, husky voice rumbled against her ear, sending another shiver racing down her spine.Her lashes fluttered as she slowly shifted her gaze to the plate of steaming pasta and roasted vegetables. Uncertain, her slender fingers trembled as she tore off a piece of warm focaccia, dipping it lightly into the rich tomato sauce before lifting it toward his waiting lips.Cristiano caught her wrist midair, holding it just above his mouth. His stormy grey eyes, now dark and glinting with hunger, locked on hers as he leaned in and closed his lips over her fingers, dragging them slowly inside with the bread. His tongue flicked across her fingertip, tasting both her and the sauce.Siena trembled against him, her entire body quivering on his lap as her lips parted in another shaky breath.“Delicious,” he drawled, releasing her hand only
