Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Our Second Deal
True to the prince’s words of speculation, I couldn't come up with a single thing about the society that we lived in that was beneficial to the country's future or for the people in general. Having been on the receiving end of the twisted madness of the society, I surely struggle to see the merits in all of it. “See? You can't really come up with anything, can you?” He guessed quite correctly while sounding quite amused. Desmond grinned at me and he seemed satisfied that I was unable to answer his question. “What is so great about the country being run by the royal family and the nobles? Even if our country is democratic, it is only democratic in name only. You should know that best with your father currently running in the election with full backing from the King and also the Vulcan family,” Desmond said before showing me a knowing smile. Even though it is almost certain that the election will be postponed by the King's death, it would come to no surprise that my father would win
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Surprising Turn
It was a very random thought but I found myself wanting to buy some desserts to share with Brandon. It just felt like the perfect treat that we could enjoy together after breaking the good news. It also felt too long since the last time that I had something from this bakery. Instead of the car coming to the stop just as I had ordered, Zain continued driving without stopping or slowing down. “Didn't you hear what I just said? I want to make a stop here, can you park over there in front?” I asked as I started feeling confused. Something felt amiss and I began wondering what was wrong with Zain. It was then that I realized that Zain had not spoken a word since I entered the car, and I had not seen his face since he had not turned around to look my way. Many gruesome scenarios appeared in my mind while I actively tried to tell myself to remain calm. “I'm not your driver and we will not be making a stop based on your request,” a voice replied coldly. The voice clearly did not belong to

Desmond and I were now on the same side and our plans were clearly aligned with each other. Bradon's silence made me feel like I had to keep on speaking before I would lose my courage. “Prince Desmond agreed to help me with my plan to remove the power of my family and also punish my parents for whatever that they have done wrong. This is probably going to be my only opportunity to right what is wrong,” I said while trying to sound calm. If he was in any way surprised with my decision, he showed no signs to betray his feelings. It was as if he had more than half expected that the outcome would turn out this way since the moment that I left the mansion to go see the prince. He looked straight at me but refused to comment, and that made me feel even more uneasy inside. After all, despite all of my bravery, I still haven't told him the main part of the prince’s plan to end the rule of the monarchy in the country. I could still recall Desmond's words and the absolute look of determinatio

“Do you know the prince? Forget that, how long have you known the prince? Are you two close?” I bombarded him with questions as I closed the distance between us as if I could prevent him from escaping.If he already knew about this, then he must have always known that Desmond would end up helping me. I wondered how long he had known the prince and if he was aware of my past relations with Desmond. “Have you ever thought about what will happen to this country when it no longer has a king?” Bradon asked to suddenly change the direction of our conversation. Even I had to admit that it was a very fair question and that I haven't had much time to put enough thought into it. I wasn't quite sure what changing the governance of a country entailed and what would be the impact to the various parties. “Desmond told me that the country will improve and move forward. He seemed very convinced that it is for the better, and I would like to believe in what he says,” I replied truthfully. “It's go
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King A Day Best Forgotten
I felt quite lazy and it was still quite early in the morning, but I had no trouble figuring out who was standing on the other side of my door. “Good morning,” Jenna greeted me the moment that I opened the door. “Good morning,” I replied as I wondered what she wanted so early in the morning. “Did I wake you?” Jenna asked with a slightly worried look on her face. “Not at all, actually, I've been awake for a while now, I just haven't made my way downstairs yet,” I replied casually. “Oh, I was afraid that I had disturbed you. Anyways, I'm here to give you this,” she said. That was when I realized that she was holding something in her hand. I looked down as she extended what she wanted to give to me towards me. Flowers? More accurately, what she was about to give to me was a pot of flowers. “Dahlia flowers…” I murmured as I took the pot of plant from her hands. “Are these dahlia flowers?” Jenna asked curiously. “Yes, these are dahlia flowers. Didn't you know?” I asked in wonder
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Not Just a Flower
“Did you perhaps forget your own birthday?” Brandon guessed quite correctly.“That's not the point,” I snapped back at him. The fact that he had caught on so effortlessly that I have forgotten my birthday only added fuel to the fire that was burning inside of me. It felt like everything that he was doing and saying was mocking me. “Do you want to take a look around the garden? If not, we can go inside,” Brandon suggested. “I don't want to take a look at the garden and I also don't want to go inside. What I want to know is why you gave me these dahlia flowers for my birthday present?” I ask as I quickly came to the point.“What's wrong? I thought you would like them,” Bradon replied and I could tell that my reaction wasn't what he was expecting or hoping for. I narrowed my eyes at him as my jaws clenched. After taking in a deep breath and letting it out slowly, I managed to let out a scoff at the ridiculousness of the situation. “Did Anthony tell you to do this? Did you get this i
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Second Present
The day of our birthday party finally arrived, and it felt like a very close rerun of what happened the year previously except for the fact that we were wearing red instead of the light shade of purple that my sister fancied the year before.We greeted the guests, we accepted the presents, and we played all the games that my sister had planned. Our parents socialized with the guests that they invited while the piles of presents kept piling up higher and higher. Everything passed by in the blur of events as I didn't take note of much. “Diana, that fiancé of yours is late,” mother commented before scrunching her face in a look of disapproval. It was so like her to nitpick on even the smallest things regarding the Vulkan family. “Well…” Diana murmured before smiling like an angel to cover up for Anthony’s delayed arrival. I also did my best to smile as I resisted the urge to remind my mother that the Vulkans were precisely the ones who were funding the spectacular birthday celebratio

For a moment I was too stunned that I didn't know what to say or how to react. It was just so unexpected for him to give me something like this. “Is this for me?” I asked although he had just told me that he had something to give me. I still found it so hard to believe that this was actually happening. Nothing like this has ever happened before in all the years that I have celebrated my birthday along with my sister. “Yes, if you don't mind taking it, then I would like you to have it,” he replied as his beautiful blue eyes kept on staring directly at my face. I felt heat rushing to my cheeks and realized that I was blushing intensely. That was when I felt so thankful for the lack of proper lighting in the garden, otherwise he must have seen my flustered reaction so clearly. Even though I tried my best to tell myself that it was nothing but a pot of flowers and that there was no hidden secret meaning behind him offering it to me, I couldn't stop the way that my heart skipped danger
