บททั้งหมดของ The Mafia's Forbidden Bride: บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

Chapter Thirty-OneMateo's POVThis has got to be one of the most awkward lunches I have ever had in my life. I don't know what Father was thinking inviting Mia over. I couldn't possibly tell her to leave— that would be rude and stupid. She was going to be my wife; and father already had the perfect mental picture that our engagement was going smoothly.Even as I have been trying my hardest to be even the tiniest bit committed in the wedding plans, and everything else, I just couldn't bring my heart to fall in love with her. I have only been trying to give her the notion that I feel something so that she would drop the suspicion she has of me and Isla. I never expected to have lunch with her and my parents. I knew Father purposely planned all this. He didn't even go for a private room as usual, but chose to be out in the open where everyone can see us. He was really trying his hardest to sell the idea that we are truly in love with each other. It was not like we needed the publicity.

Chapter Thirty-ThreeDamian's POV "You have been slacking a lot lately. When I first met you, you promised me a lot of things, and you have been keeping your word. Lately though, it seems your loyalty is beginning to waver and I don't know what to make of it," I said, stating at the man in front of me."I am trying to believe that you aren't going to betray me one day, but something at the back of my mind keeps on telling me that you are going to do just what I am afraid of. So, tell me," I leaned back, relaxing in the seat even though inwardly, I wasn't at all relaxed. "What is all the delay? Why haven't I gotten what I asked for?"It has been up to a month now, and I have still not seen any results from him. We both knew if my rules, everyone who worked for me knew that one thing I hated the most, was slackers. It irritated me a lot, and makes me do things out of the ordinary. I didn't want to snap because when I do, it was hard to go back to the sweet, caring, innocent-looking Dam

Chapter Thirty-FiveMia's POV "You are looking really good Mia. I can tell that the closer your wedding with Mateo is first approaching, the more you keep glowing. You don't know how excited I am to have you as my daughter-in-law. The first in this generation."No matter how hard I tried to show my excitement, I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. Why did Mateo's father want to see me? Why didn't he want me to tell his son? Did he what to break up our engagement and not let Mateo know about it? My brain was working overtime trying to figure out what it was. "I always look like this, Uncle. Did you need anything? My father is expecting me at the company, and I don't want to keep him waiting," I replied, politely. Alessandro De Luca let out that smile he always has on his face that looked welcoming, but also dangerous. I am excited to be getting married to Mateo, but I am also weary of his father. Alessandro's right hand man, Bryan Vincenzo has been making visits to my father a lot

Chapter Thirty-SevenDamian's POV "I must say your aim is getting really better. I remember the first time I gave you a gun, you didn't react. You just stared at it as if it was something fascinating. From that day on, I knew you were going to be exactly like me, now look at you hitting the target with your eyes blindfolded," I said, then gave a little laugh and glanced at my sister. She said nothing, and only stared ahead. "If only Sophia could be like you, then I wouldn't be having misunderstandings with her all the time. But that is her business though. The more she isn't even invested in father's business, the better for me. You always make me proud, Lucia." I commended my sister once again, but she didn't reply, which was weird. Lucia always loves a compliment, even for the tiniest thing that she did. But something was off about her today. She looked angry and kept clenching her jaw, her grip on the gun extremely tight, I was even tempted to take it away from her. Lucia acted

Chapter Thirty-NineAlessandro's POV "Why do you Lorenzo Russo wants to see you? I know that man is definitely up to something. You could have just turned down his offer for lunch. Isla didn't get married to Damian anymore, so there is nothing tying the both families together again," Bryan Vincenzo whispered, sitting beside me in the private room at the restaurant Lorenzo wanted to have his lunch. "I just want to humor him. That doesn't mean we are going to be best of friends," I replied, sparing him a glance. "Lorenzo, and I go way back. He wouldn't try anything stupid. If you are worried about him killing me here, then I can assure you that he wouldn't even make it out alive to get to his car. I have eyes, and ears everywhere, Bryan. You should know that by now. Nothing ever gets past me," I said.I wasn't worried about Lorenzo. I don't understand why Brian was. Even with my reassurance, he still looked doubtful and fearful. Nothing was going to happen.Well I wouldn't blame him t
