Unbound From The Mafia Don
At the gala of the Italian Mafia Don, Dominic Caccini, he publicly presented the ruby brooch that symbolized the Donna's status.
I truly believed my five years of waiting had finally come to an end.
But in the next second, he gently pinned the brooch onto Bianca's glittering gown.
The hall erupted into thunderous applause.
"You gave it to Bianca? Aren't you afraid of making Dr. Aria angry?" his close inner circle teased with laughs.
"Bianca lost a game tonight, and her friends demanded she get this brooch as a forfeit. How could I leave her embarrassed in front of everyone?"
"Everyone knows Aria will be my wife. As the Donna, there’s no need for her to petty over Bianca."
Every time he used this exact excuse to force me to be understanding.
But this time, I didn't argue. Instead, I quietly accepted the Medical College's invitation.
The day after tomorrow, I will leave him forever.
