Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Being Ignored
“Just around 76 times…” I said before showing her the screen of my phone.“That’s…” she murmured before pressing her lips into a thin line.“Why is he ignoring me? What did I do wrong this time?” I continued complaining while sounding very upset.“I’m sure that he’s not intentionally ignoring you,” Jenna said in her desperate attempt to defend Bradon.“Then…he’s unintentionally ignoring me?” I asked before making an overly exaggerated sad face.“Why don’t you give him another call? It doesn’t hurt to try again…” she suggested enthusiastically.I knew that giving Bradon another call wouldn’t change the outcome. However, it didn’t hurt to illustrate my point to Jenna. Maybe she could reprimand him in some way since she seemed to be the acting mother figure in this household.“If you say so…” I said as I began calling Bradon.I could tell that Jenna was more anxious than I was as we both waited for Bradon to answer my call. After waiting for a while, the call was once again directed to v
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King I'm His Surprise
The strangest part was that I didn’t trust her but at the same time, I did trust her. I had a lot of faith in her stubbornness, her persistence, and her perseverance.It would be interesting and entertaining to break her…Perhaps I just wanted to see what kind of crazy moves she would execute next that I thought that it was the right decision to simply ignore all of her calls. Although I didn’t want to stay away from her, I had to admit that it was probably safer for her this way because I had no idea what I would do to her if I spent time with her. Seeing how her face lit up when she thought that she had finally gotten the chance to see my brother irritated me.The way she spoke to him was different and it didn’t help that she had many things to criticize about our marriage even if some of them might be true. Dahlia did many things to incur my wrath; however, after spending a few days flipping various thoughts over inside my head while pretending to pay attention to Anthony’s meeting
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King His Other Woman
In a sense, she was right. I knew that Dahlia was anything but stupid and that was probably why everyone in her family thought that she was dangerous. With what they had in mind, there was nothing more dangerous to them and their plans than a woman who had a mind of her own. For a moment, I had to admit to myself that I thought that it might be better for me to come out and tell her about Anthony’s condition and situation. If she was going to find out about it sooner or later, then I might as well tell her about it.It will hurt her but delaying the pain wasn’t going to make it hurt any less…I opened my mouth as I wondered what exactly I should say to her. The sound of a woman yelling outside the door thwarted whatever effort and will that I had in telling her the truth. There was another ruckus at the door, and I was beginning to wonder if this was something that Anthony had to go through very often. I made a mental note to myself to give the secretary a raise at the end of the mont
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Burning Agitation
“You’re right. We are only married in name only so it’s really not a big deal at all. A marriage certificate is nothing but a piece of obsolete paper signed for the convenience of both parties nowadays. I guess you two have plans for the evening, I should leave so you two can get on with it,” I replied before letting out a high pitch laugh.I made sure that I was nothing but all smiles. What she said might have been wrong had she been talking about Anthony and Diana; however, she got it all right if she was talking about Bradon and me. It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that we weren’t even married in the very first place. With that in mind, it shouldn’t bother me at all who he decided to meet or spend his evenings with.“Diana…” Bradon called my sister’s name to get my attention.“Don’t worry about what we were talking about. We can discuss it later when it’s more convenient,” I said before showing him a smile.When our eyes met, I smiled brightly while staring right into his blue eyes.
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Raging Spree
“Just put it on my husband’s account. That too…and this…and that…” I instructed as I pointed my index finger randomly at various luxury bags there were on display.“Yes, I will do that. Would you like to see our newest shoe collection. It’s this way…” the sales assistant quickly recommended.She must have thought that luck was truly on her side after I turned up at the store. Of course, she recognized me as my sister immediately. I bet that in her entire career, she had never met a customer that bought so many things and without a thought.“There’s no need. Just get me all the designs that you have,” I replied casually.“Of course. May I know your size?” she asked before showing me a polite smile.“Just get me on in every size,” I replied.“Oh…right. Of course, I will do that. Thank you very much,” she replied with widened eyes.The objective of this shopping spree wasn’t so that I could buy things that I liked and wanted but it was a way for me to relieve stress. On top of that, sinc
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King A Lover’s Purchase
“I think you’re just overreacting,” I said as I waved off his concerns.“Also, it is inaccurate to say that you don’t matter,” Zain said so softly that I almost didn’t catch his words at first.“What do you mean by that?” I asked as I tore my gaze away from the sparkling diamond necklace that I had been eyeing.“You do matter…” Zain replied in short.The way he said those words to me sounded sincere enough to make my chest feel tight. I wanted to believe him but that didn’t mean that I completely understood what he meant. I cocked my head slightly to the side as I pondered and flipped around his words in my mind. The movement of the boutique door opening caught my attention as my eyes focused on the person that had just walked in. For a moment, I couldn’t quite believe what I was seeing.“You’re finally here…” Zain said without hiding his relief.It felt like he was truly glad to be somewhat relieved of his duties. I was too stunned to react to Zain’s words as my eyes felt glued to th
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Putting a Ring On It
I wanted to tell him that I didn’t want a diamond ring, but something told me that Bradon wouldn’t put this matter to rest unless I decided on a ring.“I’m not sure. Anthony, can you help me pick out a few that you like?” I asked as I forced a smile that I hoped looked natural.Since I couldn’t come up with any other reason why he was doing something like this, I figured that he must be playing the role of Anthony by acting as the perfect husband in front of everyone. He must have regretted that slip up that happened at the office. Perhaps, he didn’t intend for his lover to turn up like that. It would make Anthony look bad and it would cause a lot of trouble if news about that woman’s sudden appearance were to spread. I nodded my head slightly as the dots began to connect. In order to cover up for that, Bradon needed to create evidence that Anthony was still the perfect loving husband and that our relationship was smooth like butter. That must be it because I couldn’t think of any oth
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Exchanging Rings
I felt lost in a trance as I wondered what it was that I was feeling and what was making me feel that way. The slightly cold hardness of the ring sliding along the length of my ring finger brought me back to my senses. Bradon was staring right at my face as he seemed to observe my reactions. His eyes met and held mine and I felt trapped in their beautiful blue depths. At that moment, everything surrounding us seemed to fade away and it felt like we were the only ones in our private little world. I felt the ring at the base of my finger. As if it had been custom made for me, the ring felt like a very perfect fit.“I think it looks amazingly perfect on you, Lady Diana,” the store manager spoke up brightly.I could almost hear the shattering sound of glass as the spell that held us together seemed to have been broken. My eyes blinked rapidly as I tore my gaze away from Bradon’s so that I could focus on the ring sitting on the base of my ring finger. The large diamond stood out against my
