POV JEANNE…"You have to hold it tightly like this, then aim at the target," Leo said from behind. Leo hugged me as he guided me to hold the gun in my hand correctly. One of his hands held one of my arms to correct my position, while the other guided my finger to prepare the trigger. "A-Alright then ... Can you move away a little?" I asked, "Moreover, why aren't there any other members here? You said this was some kind of training center for your new mafia members?"I was currently in a private building owned by Leo located in northwestern New York City, more precisely in the Catskill mountain area. It was actually a training ground owned by Leo that was devoted to training new mafia members. However, it was currently empty."That's because I'm closing acceptance for new members," said Leo seriously, "I have some problems regarding that. I'll tell you about that later.""...""Now, focus and relax, honey," he said again while whispering in my ear.Instead of focusing, I felt a lit
POV JEANNE … "Ugh, where am I?" I said. I had just regained consciousness. My vision was still blurry, but it was slowly improving. The first things I saw were the wood-colored ceiling of the room and my husband's face looking at me worriedly, his expression sad. What's going on? — I asked myself in confusion. Just as I was about to speak and ask my husband, I suddenly heard the sound of a sliding door. SHRRR I turned toward the source of the sound and saw a woman dressed casually but neatly enter the room. I squinted my eyes suspiciously and asked, "Who are you?" "Oh, Mrs. Jeanne, you're finally awake. I'm Mylene Rutz, one of the personal doctors for the Morgan family, on duty here," the woman said, smiling kindly at me. With a confused look, I turned to Leo and asked, "Personal doctor? Wait... how long have I been unconscious?" I then looked again at the face of the doctor named Mylene, who was still smiling friendly. "You've only been unconscious for three hou
POV JEANNE … "Hey, eat slowly, honey." Leo's voice came from behind me. THUD! It was followed by two glasses of drinks that he placed in front of me. One of them was the iced chocolate I wanted. "Oh, thank you, dear," I said happily. Then I looked back and Leo was smiling at me. Then he pulled the chair next to me and sat down. "I'll buy you as many as you want. As long as I can hear you call me 'dear'," Leo said while grinned slightly. I snorted and then replied, "Don't start teasing me, Leo..." "Moreover, this is all enough for me," I said as I waved my hand in rejection, "If you buy me more, you're encouraging me to get fat." "Hey, I'm just kidding," said Leo with a chuckle, "But anyway, I guess being a little plump isn't wrong at all, especially since your chest will be bigger and firmer for — ouch!" I reflexively pinched Leo's waist before he finished his sentence. . "Hey, why do you like pinching or hitting me so much, hm?" Leo asked and then he pinched
POV JEANNE…For a moment I was stunned when my gaze met Noah's pair of yellow-brown eyes. But a second later, I smiled clumsily and said, "Thanks, but can you put me down?" "Huh?" On the other hand, Noah seemed to be a little surprised. However, not long after, a man's loud voice could be heard from behind Noah's body. "Hey, what are you doing?!" A middle-aged man's voice sounded from behind Noah. Suddenly, Noah's face changed to surprise and suddenly realized."Ugh, I'm sorry," Noah said, "I've been impudent in holding you in a public place."He then immediately helped me to stand up while continuing to say a thousand apologies. I smiled in response and said, "That's okay, I should thank you for helping me not to fall down."A moment after saying that, a slightly casually dressed middle-aged man with long black hair tied back and a thick beard was already standing in front of me, some of the hair on his face and head looking white which seemed to show his age indirectly. His t
POV JEANNE … "You must have pretended to be Noah's relative to stalk him, right?!" said Renata, "Wait and I'll report you to the police!" Renata was then seen picking up the bag beside her and started rummaging through the contents. She then took out her phone and I knew she was about to call 911. This matter will get more complicated if she calls the police. I'm afraid it would embarrass her — I thought. I sighed and said, "Miss Mayer, I did meet Noah recently..." "...that's because I just married the second son of the Morgan family," I continued. For a moment, I saw Renata appear speechless and then turn to me with a suspicious squint. "Really? What's the proof?" she asked. Hearing Renata's question, I paused for a moment and tried to think of what evidence to show her. "Ah! Wait a minute!" Before long, I remembered my wedding photo with Leo. I searched for it in my gallery and while I was trying, I just remembered that all the memories on my phone were er
POV JEANNE … "What are you doing to my wife?" Leo's voice rang out and I felt the grip on my arms loosen, but not completely — at least they had stopped dragging me. "Get your hands off my wife," Leo said again. A moment later I felt my body being pulled into Leo's arms and that was enough to calm me down a little. ""You're okay, right?" he said again as he loosened his embrace from me. I gave a small nod and said, "It's okay, dear. I'm fine." Leo smiled as he gently stroked my hair. Just as the atmosphere calmed down, a woman's voice suddenly came from behind me. "Tsk! Isn't this drama too much?" said Aryana, "Hey, bitch! Are you that obsess to get close to —" "S-So, Miss Jeanne is really your wife, L-Leo?" Noah interrupted. Noah's words instantly startled Aryana and Renata. "Wh-What? Leo? So he is ..." Aryana did not continue her sentence. Her pupils seemed to be trembling looking at Leo. Meanwhile Renata, she was stunned at my husband. Instead of
POV JEANNE…SLAM!"You really made me almost lose my soul, Jeanne," said Leo who looked very worried, "Why did you leave from there? Didn't I tell you to wait for me there, hm?"We had just gotten into the car and Leo immediately started nagging, making me instantly look down in guilt. "I'm sorry," I said softly, "I was bored so I decided to take a walk while shopping for maternity dress.""..." "I also never expected to meet Noah and get into trouble with some people there," I said again.I secretly glanced at Leo who seemed to be leaning his back on the back of the steering bench. He seemed to be closing his eyes as he massaged his temples. The expression on his face looked tired and it made me feel even more guilty. "I'm so sorry," I said again, "I've made you worry so much." Not long after, Leo looked at me with his shady eyes. He then let out a long sigh. "Please, don't do it again," Leo said, "You don't know how frantic when I read your message that you wanted to go walk a
POV NOAH … "Noah..." "..." "...Noah Morgan!" GSAP! I was shocked when I heard my dad's voice calling my name in a yelling tone. "Huh? S-Sorry ...?" I said in surprise, "W-What did you say to me, dad?" Then I looked up at my father which was sitting in front of me. He looked in flat and cold expression, but I could feel that he was angry with my attitude earlier. I felt a little guilty because I didn't focus when he talk to me. "I asked, how's your work? Is everything going well?" he asked in a cold tone, but his face looked a little annoyed. "Ah, that's ... everything's fine," I replied, trying to smile to convince him. On the other hand, I saw that my father still looked cold-faced and seemed hold his teacup. "It's good to hear that from your mouth, even though everything doesn't look like well enough," he said and then sipped the contents of his teacup. My father's words made me instantly become silent and clamp my lips tightly. It was true that I
