"Stay away from the room at the extreme end of the east wing... Be quiet as much as possible.... Leave at once when the second hand struck 5pm, not a second late!"

Warning ️ Book Contains Explicit Content I faked my own death to escape a killer surgeon. Then I saved a mafia boss's brother and became his prisoner. I thought I was safe hiding in the shadows. Then Frank Costello dragged his dying brother into my clinic with a gun to my head: "Save him or die trying." Now I'm trapped in his world. Three months of service, he says.

Lors de ma quatrième visite à l'hôpital pour vérifier si ma fécondation in-vitro avait réussi, j'ai vu Roland, qui était supposé être en déplacement, soutenir délicatement une jeune et jolie femme en sortant du service de gynécologie. Le ventre de cette femme était arrondi, visiblement sur le point d'accoucher. En me voyant, Roland a paniqué un instant, puis a protégé cette jeune femme derrière lui. « Cyrille, tu sais, ma famille a besoin d'un enfant pour perpétuer notre lignée... Cet enfant, il n'affectera pas notre relation », m'a-t-il dit, d'une voix pleine de conviction. J'ai saisi la fermeté dans sa voix et lui ai répondu en souriant : « D'accord. » Sous son regard surpris, j'ai discrètement rangé mon rapport médical. Le jour où cette femme a accouché, je lui ai laissé le contrat de divorce et l'ai quitté pour toujours.

Suamiku, Vincent Cornela adalah seorang bos mafia, dia diserang dalam sebuah transaksi. Begitu bangun, dia ingat semua orang, kecuali diriku. Di depan anak buahnya, dia mengumumkan bahwa Angela adalah nyonya yang baru dan memberinya posisi sebagai ahli mekanik presisi. Namun, tanpa sengaja aku mendengar percakapan mesra mereka di gudang senjata, “Kamu meminjamkan identitas nyonya padaku selama tujuh hari. Selama tujuh hari itu, aku boleh melakukan apa saja pada tubuhmu, ‘kan? “Tentu saja! Aku pura-pura amnesia hanya untuk membuatmu senang.” Aku bersembunyi di balik bayangan, kukuku menusuk telapak tangan. Aku memilih untuk tak membongkar kebohongannya.

Kita kenal?”
