CEO'S AFFAIR: MAFIA'S OBSESSION Chapter 36 Into the Fire
Chapter 36 The days that followed the conversation with Dante were tense. Despite the shift in their dynamic—the fragile hope that maybe they could fight together, side by side—the tension between them remained thick. Dante was still consumed by the need to protect his family, but it was becoming increasingly clear that his idea of protection was suffocating, not just for Izzy but for him as well. His obsession with guarding them from the world was beginning to tear at the very fabric of their relationship. Izzy found herself spending more time at the office, not just to keep herself busy, but because she could feel the distance between them growing. The rumors, the whispers, they hadn’t stopped. In fact, they seemed to be gaining traction. She could see it in the way the employees looked at her now, the subtle way their gazes lingered a moment too long before quickly looking away, as though they were afraid of being caught. And when she’d asked Dante if they could do something abou

Chapter 37 Izzy sat at her desk, the weight of Marco's words still heavy on her mind. Dante, a traitor? It didn't make sense. She refused to believe it, even though the seed of doubt had been planted. There had to be an explanation, a reason for the changes in him. But what if Marco was right? What if Dante really was hiding something, something dangerous, something that could tear apart everything they had built? Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of her phone vibrating on the desk. The number on the screen wasn’t one she recognized, but the urgency in her chest made her pick it up immediately. "Hello?" Her voice was tight, her nerves on edge. "Ms. Izzy," a cold voice came through the receiver, its smoothness sending a chill down her spine. "We know what you're hiding. We know about Maya. And we're coming for you." Her blood ran cold. The line went dead before she could respond, leaving her in a stunned silence. She had heard enough. Her breath hitched, and her hand inst

Chapter 38 The car sped through the dimly lit streets, the engine’s hum the only sound filling the tense silence. Izzy sat in the back seat, her thoughts a whirlwind of confusion, fear, and disbelief. Everything had changed in the blink of an eye. One moment she had been sitting at her desk, trying to make sense of the mess around her; the next, she had been thrown into a nightmare she couldn’t fully grasp. The weight of Dante's words—someone wants you dead—kept echoing in her mind, louder with every passing second. The way he had acted when he shot that man, the icy cold efficiency, the way his gaze had hardened when he saw her... it all made her feel like she was walking on a razor’s edge, caught between two worlds: the one she had known and the one Dante had kept hidden from her. She glanced over at him, sitting in the front seat, his eyes scanning the rearview mirror with a sharp, calculating focus. His jaw was clenched, his hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly his knuc

Chapter 39 Dante’s words hung in the air like a storm waiting to break. His voice was ice-cold, laced with a dangerous finality that left no room for hesitation. "Call all men," he repeated, his voice devoid of emotion, each syllable cutting through the silence like a blade. "Prepare for war." The men around him shifted uneasily, their eyes flicking to one another before they snapped to attention. They had seen Dante in his fury before, but never like this. Never with this level of calm calculation, this frigid precision. He wasn’t just angry; he was a man who had been pushed beyond the brink, a man whose entire world was now under siege. Marco, ever the loyal right hand, nodded sharply, his face hardening. "Understood, Boss. I’ll make the calls. We’ll mobilize everything." Dante didn’t respond, his gaze narrowing as he scanned the garage one more time, his mind already calculating the next steps. His men were already on the move—silent, efficient, deadly. But they were up agains
Last Updated : 2024-12-07CEO'S AFFAIR: MAFIA'S OBSESSION Chapter 40 The Hunt Begins
Chapter 40 The hours following Dante’s declaration were a blur of activity. Men moved like shadows in the background, making preparations, securing weapons, and coordinating their efforts. The tension in the safe house was palpable, thick with anticipation. Every person in the building knew what was at stake, and it was not just the Vieri family’s survival—but their power. Dante had made it clear: the war had begun. Izzy sat in the small room, her back pressed against the wall, her mind racing. She wanted to be a part of it—wanted to help, to understand. But every time she tried to speak, Dante shut her down. He was consumed by the need to protect her, to keep her safe. And it frustrated her. She wasn’t helpless, but it felt as if Dante was treating her like she was fragile, like a porcelain doll that might crack at any moment. She heard footsteps outside the door, the low murmur of voices, the occasional bark of orders. Then, the door opened. Marco stepped in, his face grim, his e
Last Updated : 2024-12-07CEO'S AFFAIR: MAFIA'S OBSESSION Chapter 41 The Betrayal
Chapter 41 The tension in the room was thick, almost suffocating. The battle at the warehouse had been hard-won, but it was far from over. Dante’s men were already securing the area, making sure there were no stragglers left to cause trouble. The warehouse was quiet now, the only sound the shuffle of boots and the low hum of radios as his team cleaned up the mess. Dante stood at the edge of the room, his back against the cold concrete wall, his mind whirring with calculations. Every move, every second mattered now. He’d taken down this small cell, but who was behind them? Who had dared to target his family? His phone buzzed in his hand, breaking his thoughts. Marco’s name flashed on the screen. Dante answered the call without hesitation. "Talk to me." Marco’s voice came through the line, tight with urgency. "Boss, we’ve got information on who’s behind this. We’ve traced the men to a contact." Dante straightened, his eyes narrowing. "Who?" There was a brief pause on the other en

Chapter 42 The room was dim, lit only by the flickering lights overhead as Dante’s men moved quietly through the abandoned building. The tension was thick enough to cut through with a knife. They had tracked her ex to an old, decrepit warehouse on the outskirts of the city, a place that had once been used for smuggling, but now it was nothing more than a hideout. A perfect location for a man desperate to stay off the radar. Izzy could hear the faint hum of voices echoing through the walls. The faintest sound of footsteps, moving closer, growing louder. But she stayed still, her breath shallow as her mind raced. She had never wanted this. She had hoped, prayed even, that her past would remain buried. But now here she was, in the middle of a nightmare she never expected to return to. And as if the universe had orchestrated it, the voice she dreaded most broke through the quiet tension. “Izzy…” It was a whisper, low and full of malice. A voice she hadn’t heard in years but knew insta

The sun bathed the garden in golden light, and birds chirped happily in the distance. Dante sat on the patio, a steaming cup of coffee in hand, watching Maya help Sebastian and Sophia with a new project—building a small birdhouse.“Careful, Sophia,” Maya said, her voice calm but assertive, much like her mother’s. “You don’t want to hit your finger with the hammer.”Sebastian grinned. “Or Maya will give you a lecture about safety—again.”Dante chuckled softly, sipping his coffee. His children were his pride, each of them embodying pieces of him and Izzy in their own unique ways.Izzy stepped out onto the patio, carrying a tra

Excitement buzzed through the Vieri household as everyone prepared for the big day.“Sebastian, don’t forget your sneakers!” Izzy called from the kitchen, packing a basket with snacks for the picnic portion of the event.“Got them, Mommy!” Sebastian yelled back, bounding down the stairs with Sophia close behind.“Daddy said we’re doing the family relay!” Sophia chirped, already wearing her team shirt with the school’s logo on it.Dante appeared moments later, carrying Maya’s bag and looking every bit the proud dad. “Everyone ready?” he asked, his tone cheerful.Maya, who had been tying her sneakers, stood up and grinned. “I’m ready to win. Are you ready, Daddy?”Dante smirked, crouching slightly to meet his eldest daughter’s gaze. “Oh, you’re challenging me, huh? Be careful, Maya. Your old man’s still got some
CEO'S AFFAIR: MAFIA'S OBSESSION Chapter 116 Back home
Chapter 116The drive home from school was filled with nonstop chatter. Sebastian proudly announced that he’d already made two new friends, while Sophia excitedly described the classroom decorations, her little hands waving animatedly.Maya, sitting between them in the back seat, smiled indulgently as she listened. “You two are so loud,” she teased, nudging Sebastian. “But it sounds like you had a good day.”“We did!” Sophia chirped. “And the teacher is really nice, Maya! She said I’m good at coloring.”Sebastian added, “And I told her I’m going to be just as smart as my big sister someday!”Dante, driving, chuckled at his son’s declaration. “That’s a pretty high bar, little man,” he said, glancing at Maya in the rearview mirror. “Your sister’s already way ahead of the game.”Maya blushed slightly, but her grin widened. “Well, I can help you, Seb. And Sophie, too.”Izzy turned in her seat to look at them, her heart full as she watched the siblings interact. “I’m so proud of all of you

Maya, now more poised and mature at twelve, took her role as an older sister seriously, helping to pack their bags and ensuring everything was in order.Izzy moved through the chaos with practiced ease, handing out lunchboxes and tying shoelaces while giving a quick once-over to everyone’s uniforms. “Sebastian, don’t forget your jacket!” she called, noticing him trying to sneak past the hallway without it.“Mommy, it’s not cold!” Sebastian protested but grabbed the jacket anyway.Dante appeared moments later, looking unusually relaxed in a casual button-down and jeans. It was rare for him to take a break from his busy schedule, but the first day of school was an important family tradition h

Chapter 114The sun had barely risen, casting a warm glow over the sprawling Vieri estate. Despite the late night of celebrating Maya’s birthday, the house was already alive with activity. Sebastian and Sophia were chasing each other around the kitchen, their giggles echoing through the halls. Maya sat at the breakfast table, her usual composed self, sipping on a cup of hot chocolate as she worked on a sketch in her new journal.Izzy entered the room with a fresh pot of coffee, her hair pulled back into a loose bun. She paused, taking in the sight of her children, and smiled to herself. The peace and joy in these quiet family moments were what she cherished most.“Good morning, my loves,” she greeted, setting the coffee pot on the counter.“Morning, Mommy!” Sebastian and Sophia chorused, barely glancing up as they continued their game.Maya looked up from her journal and offered her mother a soft smile. “Good morning, Mommy.”Dante appeared in the doorway, freshly showered and impecca
CEO'S AFFAIR: MAFIA'S OBSESSION Chapter 108 The years had flow....
Chapter 108The years had flown by, and life in the Vieri household was bustling with new challenges and joys. Maya, now turning 12, carried herself with an air of confidence beyond her years. Her serious demeanor often mirrored her grandfather's, earning her the affectionate nickname "The Little Boss" from the family. Meanwhile, Sebastian and Sophia, now 7 years old, brought boundless energy and laughter into their home, keeping everyone on their toes.Dante sat in his study, his gaze fixed on a recent photo of his family. He couldn’t help but feel a swell of pride every time he looked at them.

The sight of them doting on Sebastian and Sophia while quietly observing Maya had been a heartwarming yet surreal experience for Izzy.As breakfast was served, Maya once again stole the spotlight. Dressed in a pale yellow dress with her hair neatly tied back, she sat with the poise of someone far older than six. She was calm, composed, and attentive—a miniature reflection of her father in his younger years.Dante’s mother, Alessandra, sipped her coffee and glanced at her husband, Marcello. “She’s quite something,” she said quietly, though her gaze was fixed on Maya, who was gently helping Sophia with her toast.Marcello nodded, his expression thoughtful. “She has Dante’s resolve, but there’s something else. An intelligence beyond her years.”Dante, sitting at the head of th
