All Chapters of Mafia's Forbidden Desires: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Raven Blackwood’s POV:Just as I was about to stand up and leave, I paused. My eyes meet with Francesco Russo, standing at a distance away from me. His brows raised for a second before he walked towards me, “Blackwood! I am surprised to see you here.”“Russo,” I greeted him back.“What brought you to Italy?” He said, taking a seat across from me.“Just business,” I answered calmly, observing his expression.He nodded and started talking about the latest developments in his business. I listened more than I spoke. My attention remained on observing him and thinking about whether he could be involved in kidnaping My Wife. Francesco had no major dealings in Vegas. Only I was his business partner. That day I didn’t add him to the list, thinking he wouldn’t be involved, but… damn it.Just then, I realised the way he looked at Valerie for the first time. How did I even miss such a detail? My fists clenched by my sides. My immediate instinct was to grab him by his collar and make him talk, bu

“We will find out,” I said and walked out.Some minutes later, we arrived at the café. I ordered a latte for myself, and Kyle ordered a cappuccino.We sat near the corner window where I could get the full view of my surroundings. I pretended to talk to Kyle and look at my phone, time and again, just to let them know I had my guards down. As expected, within five minutes, one of my men texted about the movements of the man in the red car. His name was Tyler. I had met him briefly that time. The text was short, telling me that Tyler got alerted since I entered the café. And now he was calling someone, possibly telling them my movements or planning their next move.Some seconds passed when I felt a presence towering over me. I looked up and saw it was Francesco’s sister, Ginevra. She wore a green dress and had a wide smile as she looked at me, “I didn’t expect to see you here.”I smiled politely, though it didn’t reach my eyes, “Miss Russo.”“Heh,” She shook her hands to dismiss my words

Evening, Coastside Bar:I reached the location with Kyle. The place was filled with vibrant energy. The youth were enjoying themselves, with dancing, drinking and talking. I glanced and walked towards the empty couch area. As I had just taken a seat, I saw Ginevra walking towards me with a bright smile plastered on her face. If it were before, I would have looked away. But now? I looked at her. I met her gaze and smiled back.“Raven,” She blushed.“Miss Russo,” I watched the woman who dared to kidnap My Wife carefully. She was smiling like she got what she wanted, but she had no idea what was coming for her.“May I sit with you?” She asked.“Yes, please,” I offered my hand for her to sit by my side.She sat by my side, and from the corner of my eye, I could see she was staring at me the whole time. With a cold glint, I turned towards her, “You have been watching me the whole time.”“You are so handsome. I can’t help myself,” She laughed softly.I nodded and looked through the crowd un

"Proceed," I ordered as I glanced around. The area around was filled with narrow trees, stones, and uneven terrain. And it was too vast to find her. But she was here. Alone. She was here in an abandoned place, all due to me. I ran a hand through my hair in frustration. I just hoped I would find her soon.From seconds to minutes to hours passed just like that. But I didn't find Valerie anywhere. The terrain got tougher. My men kept looking around to search for her, but we didn't even see any presence of any stranger here, let alone Valerie. Yet we kept going.It was almost half a day later when we found someone. Just in the middle of trees, on the left terrain, on the east side, I saw someone. He was an older man dressed in local Italian clothes. He had some goats and sheep by his side. I quietly walked to him and greeted him first before I turned to ask, "Have you seen some people nearby?"His brows raised in question. Since I was talking in Italian, it wasn't difficult for him to und

“Where is Reign?” I asked directly.“With Amara.” He answered. “Kyle said you found her?”I nodded, “Yes. My Wife wants to see our daughter.”He nodded and stood up to walk out of his study room. Soon, he arrived at his kitchen, where he shifted his camera to show me a back view, where Vaughn was eating food, and Amara was holding a milk bottle to feed Reign.I turned to Valerie and put the screen in front of her. Valerie took the phone from me, and her eyes warmed a little.On the screen, I noticed that Amara had taken the phone from Rowan’s hands, and now the two of the stared at each other silently. I reached out and held Valerie’s hand gently.Finally, some seconds later, Amara broke the silence, “Are you alright now?”“Yes,” Valerie answered, “Has Reign been fine there?”“She is very adorable,” Amara smiled, “Now I feel like having a daughter myself.”“Your wish is my command, Crimson,” I heard Rowan’s voice from the background, on which Amara rolled her eyes and focused on Reign
