Uninvited, Unwanted, Unforgiving: I Quit the Don's Family のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 9

As soon as my voice faded, a bang echoed through the conference room. In the almost pin-drop silence, the sound of Don Costa's glass striking the marble table was exceptionally loud.Immediately after, a low murmur began to ripple through the room.The first to speak was Francesco. "Seriously? All that over this? You're usually so quiet—didn't think you'd make such a big deal out of something so small."Antonio Greco, a Capo under the family's Underboss, grumbled in a gruff voice, "Exactly. She's usually the least busy anyway. Asking her to stay back and manage the family's affairs was a sign of trust, yet here she is getting all worked up about it.""I can't believe you're throwing a tantrum again like a spoiled princess, as if guarding the family isn't important," he muttered under his breath, clearly displeased. "This isn't the place for your little fits."Beside him, the Consigliere Dario Zanon leaned lazily against the back of his chair, revealing the double-gun skull tattoo

"Don Costa, Camilla is clearly just bluffing, so there's no need to take it to heart. She's been sheltered by the family for five years, yet she's accomplished nothing herself."She's probably afraid you'll punish her, so she's making excuses to cover up her own incompetence and just wants to give up entirely," Riccardo added.Marco chimed in at just the right moment. "Camilla, no offense, but you really are too petty and always making a fuss over every little thing."Isn't helping each other out what being part of a family is all about? That's how it works here. Just apologize properly to Don Costa, settle down from now on, and don't ruin Donna's special day by upsetting him."They took turns reprimanding me, each word sharper and more cutting than the last.The very people who had drained me dry and picked me clean were the ones hailed as heroes within the family.Moreover, all those sleepless nights I spent organizing data and risking my life on the most dangerous deals were n

The other Capos' eyes had already locked onto me the moment Renato's roar erupted. I lifted my head and calmly scanned the room. Seeing all those smirks and mocking stares, I couldn't help but laugh."This critical transaction has always been under your responsibility. All dealings with the Abate family were handled by you. I have no data, documents, or details. As for the consequences," I paused, taking a sip of coffee, "they naturally fall on whoever is in charge of the deal, no?""Bullcrap!" Renato snapped, kicking over a nearby chair in frustration. "You've always been the one doing the work while I gave the orders. Now you're pretending otherwise? You think you can play games with me? Well, you're way out of your depth."Get it done now. If this gets delayed, you'll answer for it. Don't think you'll walk away unscathed then.""Oh, so you knew perfectly well that I was helping you all along. But it was never my obligation. I did it as a favor, not out of duty," I corrected calm

I remained silent.Don Costa continued, "What I said this morning was spoken in anger. I didn't actually mean to expel you. The HR department might have misunderstood my intentions, but I've already reprimanded them for it.""Don Costa, I've already completed the exit procedures," I reminded him."Procedures can be reversed," Don Costa said with a wave of his hand. "Family rules are rigid, but people aren't. You're no longer a Soldato anyway, so we can afford some flexibility here."I chuckled inwardly. Over the past five years, Don Costa had never once shown me a hint of kindness. Yet, here he was now, speaking softly and lowering his stance.Unless something urgent had happened, he would never act this way."So, what are you actually saying?""What I'm saying is—I want you back in the family." Don Costa leaned forward. "And not just that. The family will also compensate you. You'll attend Sofia's birthday party as usual. I've already arranged to have your name added to the lis

Under Don Giovanni's guidance, I smoothly joined the Giovanni family as a Consigliere.On my first day, the Giovanni family's Underboss, Stefano Bianchi, personally showed me around, his words hinting at the expectations they had for my capabilities.Not long after settling in, my phone rang.It was Don Costa.Looking at the name flashing on my screen, I pressed "Decline" and blocked it without hesitation.I poured all my energy into my new job. The first task was a tough one, since working with politicians required extra caution.I spent a week untangling every issue, rebuilding the data model from scratch, and led the Capos through two sleepless nights to deliver a proposal that far exceeded the politicians' expectations.In the end, we successfully secured the deal.At the celebration dinner, Don Giovanni looked at me and said, "Camilla, I knew I wasn't wrong about you."A month later, during a meeting, my phone buzzed with a message from Luca."Camilla, the Costa family i
