Dangerous Secrets: My Mafia Stepbrother

“That place is too big, suitable for hosting banquets. My friend and I are just two people, and she’s mainly curious to see what the place I often live in looks like. She’s very ordinary.”

“That works. I might have something to do during the day, but I’ll be back for dinner in the evening.”

Isabella gave Emanuele a peck on the cheek. “My friends are just ordinary doctors, so don’t come off too cold; you might scare them.”

“Got it,” Emanuele replied.

In a blink, Saturday arrived, and on this day, Evelyn brought Pippo to visit Isabella.

Isabella specifically called Tony to pick up Evelyn and Pippo.

As Evelyn walked in and saw the surroundings, she couldn’t help but exclaim, “Oh my God, Isabella, this is the kind of mansion I could only see on TV before. Dear God, I dream of living in such a house.”

Her family background wasn’t very good, and her parents’ income levels were quite average. It was only after she started dating Pippo that they moved to their current slightly better apartment. However, compared to Isabella’s house, it was still far behind.

Looking at the spacious living room, just this living room alone was two or three times bigger than their apartment. There were many luxurious sculptures in the living room.

Not only that, the kitchen was also spacious, not to mention there was another floor upstairs.

Seeing Evelyn’s shocked expression, Isabella, with a smile, led her to sit on the soft and spacious sofa. Evelyn couldn’t help but lie down and adjust to the most comfortable position.

“Your TV is so big, Isabella. If I watch TV, watching variety shows must be so enjoyable. Oh my God, your balcony!”

Evelyn, like she had discovered something novel, saw the spacious balcony. As she lived on the top floor, looking down from this angle revealed a bustling street scene below.

This apartment was in the city center, the tallest building in the vicinity. The view was very broad, allowing them to see very far.

Evelyn felt like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world, shocked by the open view from this high floor.

If it was at night, looking down from here, with bustling traffic, bright lights, it must be beautiful!

The balcony was also very large, with a rocking chair. Evelyn went to sit on the rocking chair, which swayed gently. Looking at the distant scenery, Evelyn had a feeling of having everything under her feet.

Indeed, this was the place chosen by Emanuele, the head of the Mafia. He knew how to enjoy life.

After Evelyn toured the downstairs, she said to Isabella, “Isabella, take me upstairs to have a look.”

“Sure.” Isabella led Evelyn upstairs.

“Isabella, can I also go up and take a look?” Pippo, who had been silently accompanying Evelyn since they arrived, smiled and spoke.

He was very polite, perhaps thinking that the upstairs was where Isabella and Emanuele rested, likely more private. So, he asked in advance.

“Of course,” Isabella said with a smile.

Even though their relationship was a bit strange before, after experiencing Evelyn’s coma and Pippo silently guarding her, Isabella’s impression of Pippo had changed. If he liked Evelyn so much, then he was her friend too. Moreover, Isabella had already tidied up all those private things upstairs.Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

Upstairs are several bedrooms, some occupied by bodyguards, and others by Lilly. In the innermost room are Emanuele and Isabella’s quarters.

Looking at the spacious bedroom, which is over a hundred square meters, Evelyn sighed, “It’s good to have money. In such an expensive area in Chicago, there’s still such a luxurious apartment. Isabella, you’re fortunate, aren’t you?”

Pippo, on the other hand, silently watched without saying a word. His gaze carefully scanned the entire bedroom. The bedroom had a huge balcony, and the glass used was thick bulletproof glass. It was evident that Emanuele was very cautious. However…

Pippo’s gaze shifted to the bathroom. Suddenly, he said to Isabella, “Isabella, can I use your bathroom? I want to wash my hands.”

“Of course,” Isabella replied without any hesitation.

Pippo entered the bathroom, and the bathroom also had glass, but unlike the balcony, the glass here could be opened. Pippo turned on the tap, and as the water flowed, making a loud sound, he took advantage to walk to the glass conveniently. He pushed it open. Okay, this is the way to start.

When Pippo came out of the bathroom, Isabella continued to take them to visit the walk-in closet. Seeing the clothes inside, Evelyn exclaimed, “Oh my God, is this the queen’s wardrobe? Isabella, I’m really envious of you, having so many clothes.”

There were clothes filling the entire room, for every style, occasion, and season imaginable. It felt like there was enough to open several clothing stores.

Women liked beautiful clothes, and Evelyn was no exception. She had been eyeing Isabella’s clothes all along.

“Is this CHANEL? Is this Prada? Is this Louis Vuitton? Oh my God, I feel like all the clothes in this room, if sold, could cover my entire lifetime!”

All of them were high-end luxury items, not to mention the room dedicated to bags, some styles of which Evelyn had never seen before.

Coming downstairs, Evelyn felt a bit floaty. Even though these things weren’t hers, being able to see so many clothes and bags stacked with money made Evelyn feel like she had fallen into heaven.

Moreover, Isabella even gave her two bags.

Wiping away tears, Evelyn was excited and hugged Isabella, giving her two kisses. “Darling, you are truly my friend. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, just come to me.”

She felt that Isabella was very loyal, not forgetting her friends even after becoming prosperous. Isabella treated Evelyn so well because she thought Evelyn deserved it. When Isabella was in her most painful and helpless moments, Evelyn silently supported her. Now that she was doing well, she couldn’t forget her good friend.

“Come, dear ladies and gentlemen, let me treat you to the afternoon tea I made.” Lilly, at this moment, came out of the kitchen holding cakes, croissants, and waffles.

She placed the items on the table.

Evelyn looked at the cheerful Lilly and greeted her, “Lilly, I’ve heard about you. Isabella said your cooking is delicious, and the cakes are especially tasty.”

“Oh, it’s my honor to be liked by Isabella.” Lilly was also happy, and the freckles on her face seemed to be dancing. “Quickly, try them. Oh, by the way, do you want coffee or tea?”

“Give me a cup of tea, thank you.” Evelyn said, looking at Pippo, “Pippo, what would you like?”

“The same as you.”

“Coming right up.” Lilly said, turning to walk into the kitchen.

They quickly indulged in a sumptuous afternoon tea.

“Isabella, you’re living in paradise now, huh? Married to such a handsome man, with servants, bodyguards, this huge room, and endless money. Hey, why bother going to work? If I were you, I’d travel around the world every day.”

“Emanuele doesn’t have the time either.” Isabella took a bite of a strawberry cake, and the sweet and tangy fragrance of strawberries spread in her mouth, incredibly delicious.
