All Chapters of Reborn: I'll Let Her Provoke the Don: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

Upon seeing the yellow chrysanthemums, the smile drops from the face of Alessandra Colombo, the Donna of the Marchetti Famiglia. Her face becomes clouded with displeasure.Carina Esposito, my husband's sister, saw that Donna Marchetti wasn't accepting the bouquet, so she thrust it into her arms. "I grew these yellow chrysanthemums myself, Donna Marchetti. I handpicked the prettiest nine blossoms and wrapped them especially for you."You don't have to be polite with me, Donna Marchetti. It might be a lot of hard work growing these flowers, but the moment I thought about this bouquet bringing you joy, I didn't feel weary in the slightest."Upon hearing that, Leone Vittoria, my husband, instinctively pulled Carina into his embrace, his face etched with concern.Donna Marchetti scoffed and handed the flowers to the Soldato beside her. "Is that so? Why would you choose yellow chrysanthemums—a flower meant to wish death upon someone in our culture—if your intention was really to make me

Leone had been highly attentive lately, probably because he needed a favor from me. He even took me along to Vittorio Group to oversee operations.Carina and I sat on either side of Leone."It's your first time attending a company meeting, right? If you have trouble understanding the presentation, you're welcome to ask me, Valentina," Carina said as he looked over at me with an innocent expression, her eyes filled with undisguised disdain.Upon hearing that, the employees chimed in softly as well."Ms. Esposito is not only pretty, but she is also a very kind person.""Ms. Esposito would always bring a bouquet of flowers whenever she came with Mr. Vittorio, leaving the entire company smelling wonderful." Leone smiled and pinched Carina's cheek, saying affectionately, "You've won over everyone in the Vittorio Famiglia. What will happen to me if I ever upset you someday, Carina?"I watched their unabashed intimacy and remembered how considerate Leone had once been toward me. I l

Donna Marchetti snapped, "Haven't I already told you during the previous banquet that yellow chrysanthemums were a bad omen? How could you bring an entire truck full of them here? Did my warning mean absolutely nothing to you? "If it weren't for my recommendation, the insignificant Vittorio Famiglia wouldn't even be allowed near a banquet thrown by Don Moretti! You'd better get the hell out of here this instant—and take those flowers with you!"Carina pointed accusingly at Donna Marchetti and me. "Valentina must have paid you off! You two have been targeting me together since the previous banquet, making me the butt of the joke! I'm not going to be fooled again this time! It's impossible for anyone to dislike the flowers that I personally put together!"Leone stepped in front of Carina, shielding her. "Carina has put a great deal of effort into preparing for this banquet, Donna Marchetti. I believe she had no intention of being disrespectful, so even with the Marchetti Famiglia and

Luca slid a cup of coffee toward me, pulling me out of my thoughts. "Don Moretti told me you liked coffee, so here's a freshly ground one. Have a taste. Do you want to add two more sugar cubes?"He spoke gently, a faint smile lingering on his lips the entire time.I picked up the coffee and took a sip. I then looked at him with a freezing glare and said in a somewhat strained voice, "I heard from Papa that you were the one who told him that I was tailing Leone.""I hope you don't get the wrong idea, Valentina. I never investigated you behind your back. You see, the mercenary group you hired actually belonged to the Rossi Famiglia. "I searched for you and Leone alongside Don Moretti after you went missing back then, so the moment you requested someone to tail Leone Vittorio, my men noticed and immediately reported it to me," Luca explained calmly. However, he unconsciously gripped his fork so tightly that his knuckles turned white. I said softly, "Thank you, Luca. And I'm also so

Luca and I had planned to take the same flight home, but a problem arose with one of the Rossi Famiglia's weapons shipments, so Luca rescheduled his flight and flew back a day ahead of me.I boarded my flight home after visiting one of the tourist attractions in Isvane. I slipped on my eye mask and leaned back in my seat, intending to get some rest. For some reason, I felt uneasy. After all, Luca and I had put this trip together so hastily that no security detail had come with me.I picked up my phone, and in the dark reflection of the screen, I caught the gaze of the man behind me.That man froze for a split second before ripping my phone away and smashing it to the ground. Then, another man clamped a towel over my mouth and nose, causing me to lose consciousness almost immediately.…I found myself tied to a bed when I regained consciousness. I noticed that the space around me was completely dark, and I could feel the bed rocking faintly beneath me. I arched my body, trying to
