All Chapters of Don, I'm Done Playing Your Fake Bride: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

"You're finally back, Ms. Bellucci," a nurse said, carrying a tray as she entered Pia's room with a professional smile on her face. "It's time for your IV drip."Pia lay down on the bed like an obedient puppet. However, she happened to catch a glimpse of the nurse's movements behind her.The nurse took advantage of the time Pia took to adjust her position in bed to swiftly rip off the label from the IV bag, crumple it into a ball, and stuff it into her white coat pocket. She did it with much haste and looked a little suspicious about it.Since Pia was a top-tier bodyguard, her senses and intuition for danger kicked in at once. She remained calm as she asked, "Why does today's IV drip feel like it's a lot more than usual?"She then kept a close eye on the nurse's expression.The nurse, who was in the midst of hanging up the bag, froze for a second before she resumed her actions and said, "It was specifically instructed by your doctor. He said that it was to help you recover much qu

Pia's resistance caught Vito off guard. He staggered back by a few steps after getting shoved, barely regaining his balance afterward.He stared at her in disbelief. His demand had just been rejected by her, and his eyes grew sharp at once."How dare you defy me!"Pia clutched at her wound that was now bleeding through the bandages and trembled with pain. Yet, she still met his angry gaze."Do you truly care if I'm dead or alive? I've already blown off Santi's ear, and you're still offering to give me up in exchange? You're sending me to my death!"Vito's expression softened slightly. He soothed her and said, "You're my fiancee, Pia. How could I not care about you? I will immediately find a way to save you as soon as the document is in my hands and make sure that you're not at all harmed in any way."However, his words were nothing but lies to Pia now.She looked at him with red-rimmed eyes, her voice trembling as she asked, "Who do you actually see me for, Vito? Your fiancee? O

Pia was pinned to the deck by Santi's Soldati. Her wrists ached from the tight grip as her old wounds also began throbbing in pain.Santi crouched down and slammed the butt of his gun hard against her head, laughing manically like a demon."You might have blown off my ear, Pia, but you're going to wish you died in that crossfire now that you're in my hands!"The blow made Pia very dizzy. She tensed up and dug her nails into the cracks in the deck, trying her best to suppress the pain and fear in her chest.Just then, Vito's voice sounded urgently from the other end."I've already handed Pia over to you, Santi! Hand over the documents now!"Pia gasped coldly at that, not daring to move an inch while lying on the deck.When Santi heard Vito, however, he chuckled and sneered at him."Pia was for your stupid fiancee. And now, you're still demanding even more from me?"He looked at Pia on the ground, who was now beneath his feet, as an evil, calculating glint appeared in his eyes.

Vito recounted every battle he'd fought together with Pia and how she'd always covered for him without hesitation each time.He recalled all of the battle scars on her body, sometimes new scars layered over old ones, proof of all the near-misses and dangers she'd faced while protecting him.She had willingly done it all for him, even if she was covered in wounds and injuries.Meanwhile, Alessia, whom he'd protected with his life, didn't stop complaining to him all day, as if he had committed a capital crime for failing to protect her and keep her completely unharmed."Vito? Vito! Vito Castaldo!"Alessia's shrill voice jolted Vito back to reality."I refuse to let this matter blow over!" she said, completely ignoring the injury on his arm as she threw a massive fuss in the ward, her tone spoiled and self-righteous. "You had better give me a proper explanation for all this!"Ciro hurriedly tried to smooth things over. "Ms. Serra, Don had also gotten injured protecting you. He care

Vito's face was a mixture of shock and elation as he stammered, "P-Pia? You're still alive! That's wonderful! I've been looking for you everywhere!"Elara hesitated, clearly stunned for a moment. She then struggled to maintain her composure as she smiled politely at him and said, "I'm sorry, sir, but you must be mistaken. My name is Elara Maestri."Vito looked at her in confusion. "That can't be…"A voice suddenly interrupted them, shattering the awkwardness between them. It wasn't until then that Vito realized that he'd lost his composure earlier due to his excessive excitement.He quickly suppressed all of his emotions and sat back down.Nedo then slowly leaned back in his chair as he looked at Elara and Vito with amusement.Vito couldn't concentrate for the rest of the negotiations that day.Everything was a blur to him, and whatever was spoken was simply reduced to background noise. His mind had automatically shut off the sounds of Nedo's voice, the pen scribbling across the
