Semua Bab Entangled With The Vicenzos: Bab 71 - Bab 80

Chapter 70:It’s not like the question hadn’t been haunting her mind for some time now—it had, she just didn’t know the perfect time to ask.She wanted to know where she stood at the moment. She had initially thought he had just been using her to kill time and such, but then again, he had told her he loved her, so it couldn’t be that.As much as she wanted to push it all to the back of her mind, the truth remained the same. She was going to be engaged to his brother, Domenico. The Don had spoken about bringing the date of their engagement nearer before they had left, so she was expecting the date to be scheduled any moment from now—but here she was, entangled in bed with his brother.She really didn’t like Domenico and she wished the whole situation was different, where she could openly accept Leone without having to worry about anything. But a lot weighed on her chest.“What we are,” he drawled, his hands still gently patting her back. And then she turned to face him, to meet his gra

Chapter 72 Anna’s eyes widened, her cheeks turning crimson, her lips parting to form an ‘O’. She stared at him, tongue-tied. No matter the number of times she told herself she should’ve been used to Leone, there was no way she could do that. It was easier said than done, because this man next to her was one that could never be predicted. “Lick up now,” he pointed at the ice cream with a smirk on his lips. Tearing her eyes away from him, she picked up the small pink spoon and took a small scoop from her ice cream plate, placing it in her mouth for the flavor to burst through her taste buds. She looked back at him, but now he was scrolling through his phone nonchalantly. Although he was dressed in casual outfits, he still looked like he was brought out from a painting. He was dressed in a black T-shirt and black trousers and his usual black boots. His arm tattoos were… hot? It was more than hot, and his black midnight hair was something else. Perhaps that was why she was unable t

Chapter 74:Her heart raced, numerous questions flooding her mind. Just hearing his voice made the wound which had begun to heal reopen again, and her head got filled up with everything this man had done to her.The ache settled in her chest, like a knife was being shoved inside only to be twisted ruthlessly.Her lips parted multiple times, tears streaming down her eyes.“Wha…” her words hung mid-air as she felt someone take the phone from her. It was Leone.She had been too engrossed with the call that she hadn’t noticed when he got in. He placed a finger on her lips, stopping her from saying whatever it was she had wanted to say.“Che cos’è?” She watched Leone converse with him in Italian. A minute later, he was done, and then he ended the call.He slowly took his finger off her lips. Anna had wanted to believe that wasn’t her father, but there was no way she could be mistaken. She would even recognize his voice in her sleep.“Why are you conversing with my father?” hurt flashed thr

Chapter 76:Inwardly, he cursed himself for not finding out sooner. He had figured out everything else but this. Working with Francesco for so long, he wasn’t stupid enough to miss the level of resentment he had for them—the Vicenzos.He knew from the very start that the peace treaty was nothing but a sham. He had worked with Francesco for two years before he laid his eyes on Anna. Why did the thought never occur to him that something was amiss? He had never seen her in any of the mafia gatherings despite the fact that her other two sisters were present.It was usually the first daughter who took up roles like this, but instead, Francesco had sent Anna, who was his last daughter. He had known she was adopted but had carelessly missed the fact that she had been abused like a servant in the Lorenzo empire.His blood boiled, his eyes blazing with fury at the very thought of someone having laid their hands on her or forcefully touching her. He gritted his teeth.“Come on, Peach,” he gentl

Chapter 78Her eyes fluttered open, her brows softly pulled together when she noticed she was properly covered with the duvet, which was clearly not her doing since she hadn’t intended to fall asleep to begin with. Her eyes swept through the room, but Leone wasn’t here yet.She threw her legs off the bed, her feet padding against the floor to quickly head out of the room when she quickly halted her movements. Her eyes caught Leone’s jacket on the couch, which hadn’t been there earlier on. Had he been here?Her questions were answered by the balcony door, which wasn’t completely closed but had a thin gap between it.Her feet slowly padded across the tiled floor as she inched towards the balcony, her hands reaching for the door handle to pull it open.She found him standing in front of the railing, his broad back against her, his black hair dancing with the cold wind. She felt a sudden wave of relief wash over her completely. The cold wind, which carried little flakes of snow, bit throu
