บททั้งหมดของ Girl, You Slept with the Don: บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

Catello, however, looked perplexed. Frowning, he asked, "NDA? What NDA? Wait, is this something you agreed with Mr. Godino?"I studied Catello's face and suddenly noticed that he was seriously wondering if he had messed up the task that Lysandro had assigned him.That was when I realized Lysandro wasn't demanding that I sign any NDAs.And that was weird—a legendary mob boss who had endless lovers actually wanted to make amends to me? Was he really that nice?Still, once Catello was positive he didn't misunderstand what I just said or forgot Lysandro's orders, he pursed his lips in embarrassment. "I won't lie—I do request Don Godino's other women to sign NDAs, but that isn't the Don's request—it's mine. It's to stop them from causing trouble, as I'm sure you can tell that the Don doesn't have time for such things. "You're the only exception, Ms. Miller. I'm sure that the Don is serious about you, so no NDAs for you." I gulped.Catello spoke with so much honesty in his words a

Seeing that I was silent and presuming that I wasn't pleased with his arrangement, Henry sat down beside me.With patience, even hope, he said, "If you don't think that's enough, you need to just say it. Don't worry, Yannon Memorial Hospital has always had a reputation for fairness, and we'd never turn our backs on talents."I took my deep breath, praying that Catello didn't threaten Henry mafia-style, instead enticing him with some offers that were monetary or business in nature.Otherwise, the only option for me was to resign.I thought about what I should say, and even as Henry kept staring at me eagerly, I calmly looked up and met his gaze."Sir, I understand that you're giving me special treatment because of Mr. Bandini. Therefore, can I at least hear what he told you before I accept this promotion?"Henry did a double take, seemingly surprised by my question.Still, he soon laughed in relief as he understood. "Don't worry—Mr. Bandini only brought me the patent stolen from

My eyes were wide with shock and disbelief.If he thought we had yet to break up, he had even less business here to tell me such things.I was now really curious about what he was thinking, or if his brain functioned like a normal person's at all.Luciano was still frowning as if hurting. "Gaia, you shouldn't get petty over your sister out of jealousy. I cheated on you—if you want, you can make a fuss or whatever, and I'll do whatever I can to make amends, but…"He trailed off as he appeared hesitant to continue.However, that was when Cecilia sniffled loudly, and I watched as his hesitation turned to righteous chivalrous rage again.Clenching his knuckles, he growled, "Cecilia is innocent. Anyway, I want you to stop hurting her." I couldn't even act surprised—there was only pity in my eyes.In my mind, Luciano used to be gentle, polite, but most of all, sharp and with a keen sense of judgment.Even after he cheated on me, the only thing I could argue against was the act alon

Gaia's POVI didn't know that Luciano had the balls, as he had never forced anything against my will before.My mind went blank when his lips touched mine, and my entire body was so overcome by shock that I couldn't even think straight enough to push him away.Just as I stiffened, I found myself looking down the street, somehow noticing a glare on myself from a distance.It jolted me like an electric shock as I saw Lysandro in the backseat of a Rolls-Royce.His dark green eyes were flaring with rage like an alpha wolf in the darkness of the forest, cold and glued to my face.At that moment, I was completely petrified. I wanted to push Luciano away and run to Lysandro's car and maintain my innocence.Fortunately, before that destructive thought took root, Luciano breathed softly and lustfully into my ear, "Gaia…"It jolted me to my senses, making me remember who I was kissing.And the other person didn't just leave my heart racing—he made me feel embarrassed like I had betray

Fortunately, I was wearing a thick pair of jeans and a cream-colored jacket, hiding the mess perfectly.Still, Lysandro was all I could think about, as I couldn't help wondering what he was thinking when he saw me kiss another man.And could he have noticed that it was Luciano just from his back?It would be easy if Lysandro thought it were another man, as I could convince myself that it wouldn't affect what happened between us—even if he considered me an unseemly woman, as it was over between us anyway.But if Lysandro knew it was Luciano, things would get really bad.After all, I doubted that the ruthless mob boss would be so merciful—not when I was fooling around with him and his son, and he had sufficient reason to suspect that I was using him like a tool.If anything, I think the punishment would be much scarier if he had gotten out of his car when he saw us.While my mind was a mess, I found a silver lining as I considered how Lysandro would punish me—my fear trumped over
