He Married My Stepsister to Save Her, So I Married the Don のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

The next day, I took the ruby necklace my mother had left me to a jewelry shop.The clasp was broken, and the stone was cracked.But it had been my mother's favorite.The jeweler took it from me and let out a long sigh."Miss, this necklace has been dropped, so it won't be easy to repair. Would you mind waiting here while I take a look?"I nodded. That ruby had been passed down in my mother's family for generations.But once Bianca moved in, Elena had snatched it.Whenever she threw a tantrum, she took it out on my mother's things.By the time the necklace came back to me, it was a wreck.I was so focused on the jeweler that I didn't notice two people approaching from behind.Then I heard a laugh I knew. Cedric was there, helping Elena shop for jewelry.The moment Elena spotted me, her eyes locked on the ruby necklace."Cedric, that necklace is mine. She took it from me on purpose."Our wedding's coming up, and that necklace would look so much better on me. Why don't you get it back fo

Early the next morning, Bianca unlocked the door and threw a white dress at me."Hurry up and put it on. That crippled, scar-faced husband of yours will be here any minute."I'd never seen the dress before. It was one of Elena's castoffs.My mother had sewn my wedding dress for me when I was 16.I put on that pure white gown and walked down the stairs, one step at a time.My father's face darkened when he saw the jewelry I'd packed to take with me. There were more than 100 pieces."Cassandra, your mother left all this behind. I was her husband. Half of it belongs to me."The shops were losing money. My father had been eyeing my jewelry for a long time.I took out the insurance policy my mother had left at the bank."Every piece of this was left to me by my mother. It has nothing to do with any of you!"The mafia hadn't shown up yet, so of course the four of them weren't afraid of me.Bianca was shaking with rage. She jabbed a finger at the jewelry."Do you really think having someone b

Elena trembled uncontrollably, too terrified to admit what she'd done.Bianca had only one daughter, and she immediately jumped in front of Elena."Don Moretti, this is all a misunderstanding."The girls squabble all the time. Elena had no idea Cassandra would be your wife."I promise Elena will never lay a hand on her sister again. We'll make sure she learns her lesson."Bianca nudged my father, hoping he could talk me down, even though he was only my father by blood.My father's legs were trembling so badly he could barely stand. "We're her parents. We'll make it up to Cassandra," he stammered.The man beside me didn't soften one bit. He pulled me into his arms, putting himself between me and all of them."Anyone who laid a hand on my wife today will pay for it!"The Don beside me was Elias Moretti.The moment he finished speaking, men in black closed in and surrounded the entire house.Cedric had lost so much blood that his face was deathly pale.Elena huddled against her mother, to

A while later, the shop my mother had left me opened its doors again.Elias hired a tutor for me.I spent my days running the shop and my evenings learning bookkeeping and financial management.Being married to a mafia Don was no excuse to sit back and enjoy the good life.Love fades eventually. I had no idea how long ours would last.But whatever skills I learned would stay with me forever.On the day the first shop bearing my name opened, I heard a commotion outside.My father wanted to see me, but the bodyguards wouldn't let him in.Bianca and Elena were wailing, and Cedric trailed behind them.He'd lost a lot of weight. His face was sallow, and his jaw was covered in stubble.When he noticed me looking, he hurried toward me as best he could on his crutch.I raised a hand and had the bodyguards let them in.Unless I put the past to rest once and for all, they'd never leave me alone.The moment my father reached me, tears ran down his face."Cassandra, sweetheart, I know I was wrong.

After their investigation, the police confirmed that the evidence I'd handed over was solid.They would finally face the consequences of their actions.But before the police could arrest them, Bianca and her family tried to run.They holed up in an abandoned church, where they soon turned on one another.Little did they know, I'd already arrived with my men, who were stationed outside the church windows.Elena and Cedric were fighting over a box of jewelry.Cedric knocked the box over, scattering the gems across the floor. His expression darkened."The mafia heard the recording of me asking Cassandra to be my mistress. That bitch. I never thought she'd record me."I need to get out of Sicily. I can't leave through the usual channels, so I'll have to pay someone to smuggle me out. There's only enough money for one person. Give it to me!"Your stepfather is Cassandra's real father. You'll all be fine."Elena's face was twisted with panic."She'll kill us. I have to get out too. Don't you
