The rain had slowed to a gentle drizzle by the time Jerald returned to the café.

But Cristy was gone.

He stepped through the narrow black door, glancing around the dim, cozy interior. The soft jazz still played, the scent of roasted beans and something faintly floral hung in the air but the booth was empty. No trace of Cristy. Just silence and the low hum of rain against the windows.

“Looking for someone?” a voice asked.

Jerald turned sharply.

From the doorway behind the counter, a man emerged.

  • When the Fool Heals the Mafia   Chapter 66: The Noisiest Morning in Walton Mansion

    Then suddenly, another message popped up in the group chat.“And why is Zogo Walton inside this chat?”The whole group fell into a strange silence again. Even Treveno stopped typing mid-sentence.Unlike the others, Gareth and Treveno had been overseas for a long time, handling the company’s expansion projects. They had no clue about anything that had happened recently back home.Wendel typed slowly in response:“…A lot has happened.”Finally, Cristy sent a short, straightforward reply, “Young Miss got married.”Three seconds later…Gareth replied instantly, “What?”Treveno sent his message right after“To whom?”This time, no one answered immediately.Amara lay beside Zogo, quietly staring at the screen in her hand. She had never told any of her subordinates about this matter; she’d kept it a complete secret. Now that they knew, she knew they would definitely pester her with endless questions later.Yet, a faint, almost unnoticeable smile tugged at the corner of her lips.Next to her, Z

    “So from now on, we’ll need to sleep in the same room.”Amara looked at Zogo again after hearing those words, her thoughts pausing slightly as she quietly processed what he meant. This time, her gaze remained on him longer than before. Her expression stayed calm as always, unreadable and composed, yet internally, she could not deny that the situation still felt unfamiliar to her.They were married now. This was Zogo’s mansion, his room, his space. And no matter how unfamiliar the situation still felt to her, Amara could not deny that what he said was reasonable. By every right, a husband and wife sharing the same room was completely normal. Even if part of her still needed time to adjust to it,she knew there was no reason for her to argue against it anymore.In the end, Amara quietly lay back down without arguing further. Exhaustion from everything that had happened earlier slowly returned to her body, making her eyelids feel heavy again as she pulled the blanket slightly higher aroun

  • When the Fool Heals the Mafia   Chapter 64: Midnight in the Walton Mansion

    The night inside Walton Estate was unusually peaceful, the kind of silence that only existed deep into the night when the rest of the world had already fallen asleep. Outside, the soft wind moved gently through the massive trees surrounding the estate, causing faint rustling sounds beneath the pale glow of the moonlight. The enormous Walton mansion, usually cold and imposing, stood quietly beneath the dark sky while silver light stretched across the empty hallways and polished floors.Most of the servants had already retired for the night. The mansion that was often filled with footsteps during the day had finally become still, leaving behind only calm silence and the distant ticking of the antique clock downstairs.Inside Amara’s room, the atmosphere was warm and dim.Only the small bedside lamp remained open, casting a soft golden glow across the elegant room and the large bed near the windows. The curtains swayed slightly from the faint breeze slipping through the partially opened

    Amara continued speaking naturally, her calm tone making it sound as if she was discussing something simple and completely reasonable.“You’ll become the vice president for now,” she said while calmly drinking her water. “I still have other things to handle, so I can’t manage everything in the Musk Company myself.”For a moment, the dining table fell silent.Then the meaning of her words finally sank into Wendel’s head.His eyes widened immediately.“What?!” he almost shouted, looking genuinely horrified as he pointed at himself in disbelief. “Miss, I already have too much on my plate right now!”He leaned back dramatically in his chair before placing a hand over his chest like someone who had just received terrible news.“Do you know how hard I’ve been working lately?” he continued complaining shamelessly. “I barely even sleep anymore!”Brook quietly drank his water while trying not to laugh.Jerald already looked entertained.Wendel, however, was still desperately trying to save him

  • When the Fool Heals the Mafia   Chapter 62: A Warmer Mansion

    The old man’s eyes narrowed as his thoughts turned colder and more calculated. He already knew the stories surrounding Amara Musk and the Musk family. Ever since her parents died, the city had quietly labeled her as unstable, a pitiful heiress constantly hidden under Don Victor’s protection. But since none of it had anything to do with the Walton family before, Solomon never paid much attention to those rumors.But now, things were different.No matter how he looked at it, Amara did not seem like someone who belonged beside his grandson.And yet…Zogo had acknowledged her as his wife without the slightest hesitation.That alone unsettled Solomon.Because more than anyone else, he understood his grandson. Zogo was never impulsive. Never emotional. Every decision he made carried weight, strategy, and intention. Which meant if he had chosen to marry Amara Musk, then there was something about her the rest of the city had not yet uncovered.A quiet knock of porcelain broke the silence as th

  • When the Fool Heals the Mafia   Chapter 61: The Old Man’s Decision

    Amara looked at him before shaking her head slightly. “It’s okay. I can handle them myself.”Brook leaned lightly against the wall while Jerald stayed beside him quietly observing the exchange.Finn cleared his throat before speaking carefully. “Mr. Walton also has an important meeting tomorrow. He might not be able to stay close the entire time.”“That’s fine,” Amara replied calmly.Zogo’s brows furrowed faintly, clearly still dissatisfied with the idea of her going alone. His thoughts briefly shifted to the board of directors meeting tomorrow: political pressure, hidden agendas, and people who would immediately sense weakness if Amara walked in without proper protection or support.Then suddenly, he looked toward Jerald.“From tomorrow onward,” Zogo said calmly, “you’ll stay beside Amara.”Jerald blinked once in slight surprise.“As her bodyguard?”“Yes.” The answer came immediately.Brook looked amused from the side while Wendel raised a brow.Jerald straightened slightly before no

    Amara let herself fall onto the bed, too tired to even change her clothes. She closed her eyes, trying to rest, when suddenly her phone buzzed beside her. The screen lit up Grandfather.She quickly answered. “Grandfather?”“Amara,” Victor’s voice came, warm but firm. “When are you coming back to th

    The temple lab was unlike any sterile hospital. Smooth stone walls, etched faintly with ancient runes, glowed with a muted warmth from hidden channels of light. Incense burned in the corner, its earthy smoke winding through the air, masking the sharper scent of alcohol and herbs from the worktables

    The room exhaled all at once. Alta grinned at Delta, Jerald muttered something about miracles, and Brook's shoulders sagged with relief. But Amara didn't hear any of them. Her eyes were on Zogo, on the way his strong shoulders trembled as he bowed his head close to his mother's hand.She had never

    The group gathered around the main table as Dr. Rafael began grinding a piece of the herb, mixing it with clear liquid from a vial. The scent that rose from the mixture was sharp and strange, making everyone wrinkle their noses. Amara leaned forward, watching closely, her eyes filled with concern n
