Dangerous Secrets: My Mafia Stepbrother

Isabella immersed herself in her new job and found that she was quite happy while working. Meanwhile, Emanuele also became busy with work. During this time, the crisis in Chicago temporarily subsided, and the surrounding environment became calm. It was a rare tranquility that allowed him to sleep peacefully with Isabella for a while and to rest comfortably. However, for some reason, Emanuele always felt that beneath this calm exterior, there were still turbulent waves lurking.

At this time, Grazia called him. “Emanuele, can you come to Italy to visit me? Since my child was born, you haven’t come to see us. Both my child and I really want to see you. I miss you, and Nicholas has never met his uncle. I’m sure he would like to meet you.”

Grazia was feeling quite bored in Italy, spending her days taking care of the child and going out for walks. She missed Isabella very much and also missed Emanuele. She still didn’t know how Emanuele was doing.

“Grazia, don’t worry. These days my work is relatively light. I’ll talk to Isabella when I get back, and we’ll come to Italy to see you,” Emanuele reassured her.

“Okay, Emanuele, I really hope you can come to Italy soon. I really miss you and Isabella,” Grazia said.

“I’ll do it as soon as possible.”

After hanging up the phone, Emanuele decided to go home today and discuss this matter with Isabella. In the evening, Emanuele and Isabella agreed to have dinner at home. Lilly had prepared the meal, and Isabella noticed that whatever Lilly cooked, she found it particularly delicious. She was curious about what Lilly had added to the food. Lilly set the table and joined Isabella and Emanuele for dinner. There was little formality among the people in their apartment.

During dinner, Emanuele first inquired about Isabella’s work that day. Isabella said, “I think it’s going well. Although some of your subordinates have a bit of a scary temper, they are all very nice people and have a particularly interesting way of speaking. Despite their serious injuries, I’ve found them to be quite optimistic.”

Initially, Isabella had been intimidated by their frequent use of rough language and their strong temperaments. But after getting to know them, she realized that they were just straightforward in their personalities and didn’t beat around the bush. Dealing with people like them, Isabella found it quite easy. Upon hearing Isabella’s words, Emanuele said, “I will educate them.”

Isabella was a good girl. Despite entering the world of the Mafia, Emanuele had always protected her well. She only came into contact with people at the top level. Even the guards who protected Isabella were carefully selected by Emanuele. They were all introverted and well-mannered individuals. He was worried that if Isabella encountered people with poor quality, she would be uncomfortable. Isabella got along harmoniously with her guards. But now, when Isabella went to that hospital, she would come into contact with all sorts of people in the Mafia, with various personalities. Most of those who could enter the Mafia were tough characters. He was afraid that Isabella might not adapt, and he felt he should warn his subordinates. At least when facing Isabella, they needed to be more polite.

Isabella immediately stopped Emanuele, “No need. They have been seriously injured while carrying out their missions, Emanuele. There’s no need to make them deliberately change into something they don’t like. I think they are fine the way they are now. I have no dislikes. On the contrary, I feel very happy.”

Upon hearing Isabella’s words, Emanuele sighed, “Is that really what you think?”

Isabella nodded, “Trust me, I have adapted very well now.”

Emanuele didn’t mention the matter again, and he turned to Isabella and said, “Grazia called me today.”

Isabella looked up at Emanuele, “Did she ask us to go to Italy? I also received a call from Grazia today.”

“Yes.”

“Your leg is also almost healed, and I also miss little Nicholas. How about we find a time to go to Italy?”

“Okay,” Emanuele said, “Since you’ve just adapted to work, and I’m also quite free recently, let’s go early and come back soon.”

“Okay.”

Listening to Isabella and Emanuele’s conversation, Lilly, who was sitting nearby, couldn’t help but ask, “Emanuele, Isabella, are you going to Italy?”

“Yes, Lilly.”

“Planning to play for a few days?”

“I haven’t thought about it. I think about a week is just about right. Not too much, not too little. After all, I feel like Irarely have the opportunity to see Grazia.” If they were to return in just two or three days, it would be too tiring. If they stayed away for too long, it would be difficult for Lilly and Emanuele to manage their work.

“A week would be just right,” Lilly mused. “Not too much, not too little.”

Lilly fell into deep thought. She needed to tell someone about this matter.

“Would it be too long?” Lilly asked. “I mean, I really miss you both during this week.”

“I miss you too, Lilly. How about joining us in Italy? Grazia’s child is adorable. Once you see him, you’ll surely love him,” Isabella suggested.

“No, I won’t go. Since you’re leaving the apartment, I’ll also go home for a while. My husband’s health is recovering, and I need to take care of him.”

After hearing Lilly’s words, Isabella thought for a moment. It made sense; now that Lilly’s husband’s health was improving, they could go to Italy, and Lilly could take care of her husband at home.

“If you need anything, just let me know,” Isabella offered.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“I don’t… I don’t have any needs,” Lilly said, lowering her head and eating her food, trying to conceal her guilt and panic.

After dinner, Lilly went to the kitchen to wash the dishes. She saw Emanuele and Isabella going upstairs. Then she took out her phone and sent a message.

“Emanuele and Isabella are planning to go to Italy and may stay for a week.”

Soon, she received a reply, “Understood.”

After deciding to go to Italy, Isabella and Emanuele quickly set off. The next afternoon, Isabella and Emanuele boarded a flight to Italy.

Upon arriving in Italy, Rocco personally came to greet Isabella and Emanuele. Rocco greeted Isabella first, then he looked at Emanuele and patted him on the shoulder. “Long time no see, Emanuele. How’s your injury?”

“It’s already healed,” Emanuele replied, lifting his leg.

Rocco couldn’t see anything unusual and nodded. “Grazia really misses you. When Isabella left, Grazia knew you were injured and has been worried about you. She only wanted to see how you’re doing now.”

“Alright, let’s quickly go to your estate. I also want to see what my nephew looks like now,” Emanuele responded.

Soon, they arrived at the estate.

“Isabella, Emanuele, you’ve finally come,” Grazia said, walking up to them and embracing Isabella, then embracing Emanuele. Emanuele kissed Grazia on the cheek, “Sister, I’ve missed you.”
