Regrets of My Disloyal Ex-Husband のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

As I walked out of the villa with heavy security, the sun outside blinded my eyes so much that they hurt. The villa was situated in the richest part of Litrak. We bought the villa after making our first major drug deal. I was the one who designed the security system, and I knew how many motion detectors were buried under the bed of roses in the garden. Soon, the place would welcome its new mistress."Donna…" I could hear a muffled choke coming from behind. I turned back to see Carlos Bianchi standing at the door. His heavily scarred face was covered in tears. Carlos was an old Capo from the family who had retired but continued working for us for the past few years out of undying loyalty. To be exact, his loyalty was to me."Are you really leaving, Donna?" Carlos clenched his fists. Those hands of his, which had held numerous guns nearly all his life, were trembling. "You were the one by Don Fusco's side the past few years. You were the one who went through life and death with him

I stood in shock. The briefcase in my hand nearly fell to the ground as memories of him flooded my mind.Before I knew Casey, Scott was the man who showed up in my life more than anyone else. Our families had been friends for years, and we were allies.When he was young, he was not willing to get involved with the family business and constantly hid behind me while he painted. Whenever his tyrannical father found out, I was the one who would beg for forgiveness on his behalf.Back then, when the Sabatos lost power and my father was assassinated, everything was about to fall apart. The Cedaros fell into a violent internal fight at the same time, and Scott was sent out of the county overnight. Everyone said he died while trying to escape.In order to survive, I was forced to hide out in the slums. Casey and I relied on each other to survive. We were each other's weapon and armor. That was also the same time when I lost all news of Scott. I heard nothing about him for five years, and I

Casey was seething from the pain, and the look on his face got even worse when he saw Rowena appear. However, he instinctively became protective of Rowena as he held back his pain to ask, "What are you doing here? Didn't I tell you to stay in the hospital and have a good rest?"Rowena's crying got even worse as her tears fell continuously. "When… When I saw you running off angrily after getting that call, I was worried something might happen to you, so I followed you here. Don't be mad at Nicole, Casey. She only found another man because she was mad…"She had used the strategy of playing the victim expertly. Not only did she manage to clear herself of all responsibility, but she also managed to label me with the crime of adultery.Casey glared viciously at me after hearing what she said, as if to tell me, "Look, even Rowena knows what a philandering woman you are."However, something seemed to occur to him, and he suddenly pushed Rowena away. He glared at her viciously. "How did yo

The world was finally peaceful after that ridiculous farce, but the energy had been sucked out of me. My knees went weak, and I nearly fell.A pair of strong arms caught hold of me. "Everything is fine now." Scott's voice was heard coming from above my head. It felt warm and safe. "I'm here."I leaned into his arms and caught the soft scent of cedar coming from him. That had always been his scent. I had been putting up a strong front when I faced Casey, and I finally fell apart. My tears fell silently, and Scott's black shirt got wet from them."Am I a failure, Scott?" I choked while asking the question. "I gave him so much only to end up this way.""Silly thing." Scott stroked my hair gently. His touch was tender as if he were taking care of the most precious treasure in the world. "It's not your fault to have met a jerk like him. It's his loss. You're great. You're really great. He's the one who's not good enough for you."Scott helped me into the room and got me to sit on a cou

Scott and I had our wedding a month later. It was a wedding that became sensational news to every mafia in the world. It was not because of how grand it was but because Don Cedaro, who was known as a legend who unified the businesses of the two countries of Litrak and Emerson, had given me half of his fortune as betrothal gifts just to marry me.Some people made fun of Scott and called him dumb for marrying a divorced woman who could no longer bear any children. Some were jealous enough to mention sarcastically what a schemer I was to have plotted marrying a wonderful man right after leaving a jerk.However, none of these bothered Scott. He knelt on one knee in front of all our guests during the wedding and gave me a document. "This is the transfer deed to every asset under my name."Scott looked at me sincerely. "From this day onward, I'm a penniless man, Donna. Are you willing to take me in and feed me?"This caused a commotion among the guests.My tears could not stop falling
