Zogo’s voice cut through the silence, calm and casual, as if he were commenting on the weather rather than challenging the head of the family.

Every servant in the room froze in place. Even Amara turned her head slightly to glance at him, surprised by how blunt he was.

Solomon Walton’s eyebrows twitched instantly, a flash of irritation crossing his face.

Behind him, one of the older butlers pressed a hand to his mouth, holding back a quiet laugh he couldn’t quite suppress, he had seen this dyna

  • When the Fool Heals the Mafia   Chapter 86: The Husband They Never Knew Existed

    Zogo moved with a natural, effortless authority, his stride long and confident, as if this company, this room, and everything inside it already belonged to him. Behind him followed Brook and Finn, their expressions serious and alert, guarding his steps. Zogo did not stop or pause to greet anyone, nor did he acknowledge the stunned faces of the two older men seated at the table.He walked straight toward the head of the table, right to where Amara sat, and without hesitation, he pulled out the empty chair beside her and sat down right next to her, as if he had every right to be there.Edgar and Damian were frozen in their seats, their eyes wide with confusion, shock, and a sudden, rising fear.They knew Zogo Walton very well. For years, they had tried countless times to approach him, to invite him to events, to meetings, to dinners, hoping to build a connection with one of the most powerful, influential men in the country. But every single time, he had turned them down flat. He had ign

  • When the Fool Heals the Mafia   Chapter 85: Zogo Walton’s Uninvited Arrival

    Amara’s smile widened, cold and sharp, cutting through his excuses like a blade. She leaned back in the large CEO’s chair, looking at him as one would look at a child caught stealing candy: amused, disappointed, and entirely in control.“Is that so, Uncle?” she asked, her tone dripping with mock sweetness. “You told them I was unstable, unfit, and incapable… all because you were worried about my health? You whispered to them that I was too young, too naive, too confused… and you did that out of the goodness of your heart? Tell me… did you also mention to them how you visited every single director’s office one by one, long before this meeting? Did you tell them how you promised them higher positions, bigger shares, and full authority… if only they would stand against hand and me the company over to you?”Damian went completely still. His face drained of all color until he looked like a ghost.Edgar stiffened in his seat, his jaw tightening so hard the muscles stood out. His calm, ruthl

  • When the Fool Heals the Mafia   Chapter 84: The Guardianship They Tried to Steal

    Edgar and Damian exchanged a sharp, knowing glance. Finally, it clicked in their minds that this was exactly why Amara had survived that assassination attempt at the cemetery days ago. She hadn’t been lucky, and she certainly hadn’t been defenseless. She had been ready.A cold shiver ran through both men. Fear coiled tight in their chests.Does she know it was us?Does she know we sent those killers?They studied her carefully. Up until now, she had only moved against Morrie, Campos, and the other directors who had openly stolen funds or sabotaged the company. She had never once mentioned the attack, never hinted that she knew who was behind it. They told themselves that she must still be as naive and sheltered as she appeared. She had only gone after the ones whose crimes were obvious, right in front of everyone’s eyes. She couldn’t possibly know about the darker, secret things they had done.Convinced that she was still easy to manipulate, they decided to test their luck and make th

  • When the Fool Heals the Mafia   Chapter 83:The Role She Played Perfectly

    Traveno Knox.Just the name alone carried enormous weight and authority. He was the untouchable leader of Thione Corporation, a man who stood at the very peak of the industry, great and feared by all. Countless powerful companies had spent years, poured in endless resources, and tried every possible way just to establish even the smallest connection with him. Most never even managed to secure a single meeting. Many had gone bankrupt or faded away entirely while desperately chasing his favor.Yet here sat Amara, speaking of him as if their partnership had been settled and sealed long ago, as if Treveno Knox was simply an extension of her own will, a tool she could use whenever and however she pleased.Damian’s thoughts became increasingly tangled and complicated.Just how many people did she truly know? How many alliances, agreements, and powerful connections had she quietly built behind the scenes, without anyone noticing, without anyone suspecting? And more importantly, just how much

  • When the Fool Heals the Mafia   Chapter 82: Was She Cured… Or Was She Always This Way?

    They thought she was inexperienced. They thought she knew nothing about business. A young woman they could easily manipulate and control.What they didn't know was that although they had never met Amara in person, every move they made was still under her observation. Months ago, several of these very same directors had approached Traveno Knox, her subordinate and the powerful CEO of Thione Corporation, regarding potential collaborations and investment opportunities. They spent countless hours in meetings with him, presenting proposals, discussing company strategies, and negotiating terms they believed would benefit them the most. Some proudly boasted about their achievements within Musk Company, while others exaggerated their contributions in hopes of gaining favor with a man they saw as one of the most influential figures in the industry.They believed they were dealing directly with the decision maker. They thought Traveno held all the power and made all the calls on his own.What t

    He leaned back against the leather seat, his eyes still glued to the screen, watching her cold, fierce expression as she issued her commands."Everyone in the city thinks you are fragile, thinks you are a doll to be played with... but I knew better. I knew exactly what you were capable of from the moment you spoke to me."He let out a low, breathless laugh, his eyes shining with respect and excitement."You are terrifying when you handle business, Mrs. Walton... absolutely terrifying. But God... you are magnificent to watch."He turned the phone slightly, zooming in on her face, memorizing the confidence radiating from her."Those men in there thought they were the sharks... but they didn't realize they had just walked into the den of a lioness. And my... what a beautiful lioness you are."Finn, still glancing nervously at the rearview mirror, saw Zogo laughing and talking softly to himself while looking at the screen. He turned back to Brook, his expression one of pure bewilderment."

    Amara lingered at the threshold for a moment, her grandfather’s words echoing in her chest like a heavy toll of a bell. His hand had trembled against hers, his eyes sharp despite the years that weighed on them. He was worried not only about her safety, but about Zogo……. Does he truly have good inte

    Amara walked slowly down the corridor of the Musk estate, her footsteps hushed against the polished floor. The grand hallways, lined with oil paintings and heavy curtains, seemed to press in on her, whispering of history and responsibility. At the end stood her grandfather’s study room. The heavy w

    The car rolled to a slow stop in front of the Musk estate, its headlights washing over the stone steps. Amara stretched her arms above her head, yawning as if she had just woken from a pleasant nap instead of a long ride. She moved lazily, unbothered by the weight of the evening. Behind her, Cristy

    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
