Sofia remained by Leonardo's side unwaveringly during his entire stay at the hospital. How could he be so fortunate to have found her? She was his angel.

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 302. Declaration Of Love

    The audience cheered even louder, and when he finally pulled away, he whispered in his deep, husky voice against her lips, “I love you so much, doll.”The microphone Siena wore was still on, and his words echoed through the speakers for everyone to hear. It was unbelievable for the students, the professors, and even the talent hunt judges as, under the bright spotlight, they instantly recognized the man standing there—Cristiano Vitelli, the powerful and famously elusive business tycoon.Someone, too, stood frozen in shock—Carina. She had been waiting for a chance to mock Siena for any reason after her performance, but now she couldn’t believe what she had just witnessed. Cristiano Vitelli—of all people—had just confessed his love publicly.She turned to Elena, her voice trembling with disbelief. “Is this your brother, Elena?” she asked, as if needing to confirm that what she was seeing was real.Elena’s eyes were fixed on the stage, watching her brother declare his love to his wife fo

    Cristiano was unexpectedly and deeply moved when Siena began to sing. He had come thinking he would simply watch her perform—but the moment her voice filled the hall, soft and pure, something inside him shifted. Her words carried warmth, devotion, and a tenderness that reached straight into his guarded heart.When she said she had written the song for the love of her life, she didn’t mention his name—but he knew it was meant for him. The way her eyes stayed locked on him, never wavering for even a moment as she sang, made his breath catch in his throat. The melody wrapped around him like a confession, every lyric speaking of love, longing, and hope. And through it all, her eyes never left him.Siena sang as if no one else existed, her gaze fixed on the man who had unknowingly become her world. Each note seemed to say what words never could—that no matter how cold or distant he appeared, her love for him remained unshaken. Suddenly, he pulled off his mask—as if he wanted her to see hi

    “I know it's…it’s just a silly hobby. I have no interest in participating in this stupid contest,” she said nervously.Cristiano frowned. He didn’t like her explaining herself—and he hated it even more when she was lying to him. He could tell. The way her fingers fidgeted, her voice trembled, and her eyes refused to meet his told him everything.“Anna and Riya enrolled me without telling me,” she added quickly. “But I’m not going to participate. Trust me.”Cristiano shook his head slowly, disappointment flickering in his eyes. Siena’s heart sank at the sight, fearing she had upset him. But to her surprise, he turned toward her friends instead.“Where is the competition happening?” he asked calmly, though his tone carried quiet authority. “Let’s go before Siena is late for her performance.”His deep voice left no room for argument.Siena’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked up at him. “Huh?!” she whispered, her heart skipping a beat.“You must perform, doll,” Cristiano said, his g

    Then Carina and her gang strutted past, tossing mocking glances and smug little smiles, their laughter echoing faintly through the corridor. Cristiano had already had his mask back on, so they didn’t recognize him—or notice the quiet electricity that lingered between him and Siena. They muttered a few degrading comments as they passed, but Siena didn’t even flinch.She didn’t waste a second on them. Her attention was fixed solely on the man before her—the man who had actually come all the way here just to see her, to make things right.As for Cristiano, he couldn’t have cared less about anyone else. The world could’ve burned around him, and he still wouldn’t have noticed. His mind had only one purpose—to comfort his upset wife. He didn’t even register that the girls’ whispers were aimed at them. All he could see was Siena—his wife, his peace, his reason for being there.A short distance away, Anna and Riya stood watching. When Cristiano removed his mask, they froze in shock. They reco

    Cristiano sighed as Siena narrowed her eyes. “What now? You don’t have an answer, my husband?” she said in an annoyed tone, turning to leave—but Cristiano’s deep, commanding voice stopped her in her tracks.“I have my bodyguards following you everywhere, amore mio,” he said evenly. “You’re safe. If anything distressing happens to you, I’m notified immediately.”His confession left Siena speechless. But it didn’t feel reassuring—it only made her realize that she could never truly make her husband worry about her. The bodyguards were always following her—discreetly, keeping just enough distance so no one would ever suspect she had them with her. Not even her classmates knew about it. Only Riya and Anna were aware of the quiet shadows that constantly watched over their friend.“So I’m safe, and you already know that,” she said finally, her voice edged with irritation. “Then why did you even come here, Cris? Your time’s too important for things like this, right? Go back to your work.”“

    Her eyes softened in recognition. But then she remembered she was upset—and with a small frown, she snatched her hand away.Her friends had stopped too, watching the scene unfold, their eyes narrowing at the masked man who dared to grab Siena’s wrist.“Hey! Leave her alone!” Anna shouted, taking a step forward, ready to defend her friend. Riya followed right behind her, anger flashing across her face.Sensing the tension, Siena quickly intervened, her voice low and hesitant. “Um… he’s Cristiano—my husband.”Both Anna and Riya froze for a second before their faces lit up with excitement. They exchanged a quick, thrilled glance, then turned to face Cristiano.“Hi!” They chimed together, smiling brightly.Cristiano gave them a polite nod, but Siena didn’t smile. Instead, she turned away and began to walk off.“Baby, wait,” he called, catching up and taking her hand again. “Let’s talk.”“Talk? Really, Cris?” she murmured, her tone flat and hurt. “And why are you here? Weren’t you too busy
