Dangerous Secrets: My Mafia Stepbrother

Isabella left the hospital, but her heart still ached. She ran and cried, feeling like her tears were about to dry up. Coming out of the hospital, Isabella didn’t see Emanuele chasing after her. She breathed a sigh of relief because she didn’t know how to face Emanuele. But at the same time, she felt even more distressed. She couldn’t believe that Emanuele didn’t even want to chase after her. Seeing her leave so heartbroken, he didn’t care at all? He didn’t come after her? Thinking of this, Isabella suddenly felt very tired, negative emotions building up in her heart, feeling like she had accumulated a lot of heavy things in her heart, which made her feel like she couldn’t breathe.

After getting into the car, Tony drove, ready to take Isabella back to the apartment. However, when they were almost at the apartment, Isabella thought of something. She immediately said to Tony, “Wait, I’m not going back. Let’s go somewhere else first.”

Since the apartment belonged to Emanuele, and they were currently fighting, it seemed like Emanuele had a good relationship with Karen. So, what was she going back for? Perhaps soon, the mistress of the apartment would be Karen. Actually, thinking about it carefully, Karen and Emanuele were indeed a perfect match. On the surface, Karen was very beautiful, with an impeccable figure, and Emanuele was handsome and tall. Their backgrounds were similar as well. Karen was a Bratva princess, and Emanuele was the head of the Chicago Mafia. They had similar life experiences, and together, they were a powerful combination. Unlike her, a normal woman with nothing, not part of the Mafia. So, every time Emanuele was in danger, she could only worry on the side. The only thing she could do to help Emanuele was to listen to him and protect herself. Apart from that, she could do nothing. This time, Emanuele was injured, and he didn’t even inform her. At first, she thought it was because Emanuele didn’t want her to worry, so he didn’t tell her. Now it seemed that she was just being presumptuous because Emanuele already had Karen by his side, so she was superfluous.

Tony heard that Isabella wasn’t going back to the apartment and became anxious. Even though they knew that Chicago was now safe, Isabella not going back to the apartment meant they were afraid she wouldn’t go back at all. Damn it, if that were the case, he would blame himself to death. He shouldn’t have listened to his wife. He should have secretly told the boss. The boss could have been prepared in time, instead of the current situation where there was conflict between him and his wife. Thinking of this, Tony immediately said, “Madam, there must be some misunderstanding between you and the boss. Maybe he kept it from you to prevent you from worrying.”

“He didn’t want me to worry, so he deliberately had Karen fly over from Russia to take care of him? He clearly knew that Karen likes him, and she has hurt me before.”

It was this malicious woman, and yet Emanuele actually let her stay to take care of him. At that moment, Isabella felt very heartbroken. Emanuele would rather have such a woman take care of him than have her come back from Italy. Did this mean she wasn’t that important to Emanuele?Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

“I think maybe it’s just a coincidence,” Tony cautiously explained, not knowing what else to say. Coincidence? Upon hearing this word, Isabella couldn’t help but sneer. Where in the world are there such coincidences? She would rather believe she could win a million dollars in the lottery than believe in such a coincidence. When she was framed by Karen, she was so innocent, and at that time, Emanuele was very angry and made Karen leave Chicago. Who knew, not long after, Karen came back and was even accompanying Emanuele when he was sick. The more Isabella thought about it, the more distressed she felt, her eyes sore, feeling like tears were about to fall again. She looked at her phone, surprised that Emanuele hadn’t even called her. She was so angry and upset, and yet, did he really not want to explain after she said she didn’t want to hear his explanation?

Thinking about this, Isabella called Evelyn, “Evelyn, are you free? How about we go to the bar for a while?”

When Harry heard that Isabella wanted to go to the bar, he glanced at Tony and immediately messaged Emanuele about it. They hadn’t told Emanuele before and quietly returned from Italy, causing trouble. If they didn’t tell the boss about this, the boss might really kill them another day. When Emanuele heard thatIsabella wanted to go to the bar, he frowned. He thought about stopping Isabella but decided against it. Instead, he told Harry, “If she wants to go, let her. Take her to my bar; it’s safe there.”

Since he couldn’t stop Isabella, he decided to let her go to a safer bar. She was so heartbroken; she would definitely want to drink and forget her sorrows. Thinking that Isabella was feeling this way because of him, Emanuele felt guilty, as if the guilt would devour him whole. Unfortunately, he couldn’t go see Isabella now. Even if she was heartbroken, he knew he couldn’t see her. If Isabella found out that he might be permanently disabled, she would be even more upset. Moreover, his numerous wounds made him look like a broken doll. It was likely that he wouldn’t be able to be the same powerful Mafia leader as before. He couldn’t accept becoming this way, how could Isabella accept it?

He liked Isabella, so he hoped to show her his perfect side, not this sorry state. But what could he do? What if his leg never healed? Thinking of Isabella’s saddened state just now, Emanuele felt a tightness in his chest. He had hurt Isabella, for whatever reason, he had truly made Isabella sad and upset. He was a sinner!

Evelyn was surprised to hear that Isabella wanted to go to the bar. “Isabella, you’re back? When did you come back? You’re so happy, you want to go to the bar?” She thought Isabella wanted to go to the bar to celebrate, completely unaware of Isabella’s sorrowful mood.

“Yes, to celebrate,” Isabella replied.

“Which bar?”

Isabella didn’t know which bar to go to, and at that moment, Harry immediately said, “Madam, I know a great bar we used to frequent. Would you like to experience it?”

“Sure, thank you,” Isabella said to Harry.

Harry breathed a sigh of relief and instructed Tony to drive to that bar. He knew this was Emanuele’s wish.
