Leonardo couldn't help but be amused by the sight of Sofia's jealousy. Teasing her had always been a playful pastime, but now, as he witnessed the fiery anger reddening her cheeks, he found himself praying for his safety.

"Wow! You've become quite quick to change, haven't you?" Sofia remarked with a hint of sarcasm. "That day, you had no qualms about dancing with me. But now that I want to dance with you, you remind me that I cannot."

Before Sofia could walk away in a huff, Leonardo firmly grasped her hand, leading her toward the dance floor. With a confident yet gentle touch, he wrapped his arm around her delicate waist, drawing her closer to his frame. The music enveloped them, its rhythm swaying their bodies in synchrony.

His fingers traced a tantalizing path over Sofia's bare shoulders, their descent grazing the soft skin of her arm until they reached her wrist. Guiding her hand to rest on his shoulder, he caressed her cheek with the back of his knuckles, his touch both tender and

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 301. My Eyes Said It All

    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

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 300. Just A Silly Hobby

    “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

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 298. Dizzying Warmth

    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

  • The Mafia's Substitute Bride   Chapter 296. Surprised

    “Well, it’s not that hard to guess, is it?” one of the girls from Carina’s gang chimed in with a mocking grin. “Everyone in college knows Fabio dumped her and married someone better. With her reputation and that rushed marriage, what else could she have gotten except an old man? I bet he’s so ugly she’s too embarrassed to show him off. That’s why she didn’t invite anyone from our class—not even you two, her so-called best friends—to the wedding. She’s ashamed and scared people will find out her dirty secret.”A round of cruel laughter filled the classroom.Siena simply shook her head, unfazed. She had never cared about what the world thought—not when she was with Fabio, not when he left her, and not even when her marriage was kept a secret. All she ever needed was a handful of people who truly loved her. Her friends understood that, and they never questioned why they weren’t invited to her wedding. Siena was grateful to have them, her real treasures.After them, Soraya, Elena, and Cri
