I'm In Love With A Criminal Chapter 25
Whether Jo did that or not, Doni was busy turning magazine pages, licking his fingers. When he came across a photo of a naked woman he liked, he would admire it for a long time. It was a day no different from usual."Leo's always busy."Eugene said, looking at Leo's empty desk. Leo's desk was usually empty. He would busily run around outside, and when he returned to the candy store, he would immediately lie down on the sofa to catch some sleep. It seemed like he was doing all the work by himself."Jews are naturally more diligent than necessary."Doni said in a casual voice. And turning the magazine, he added,"And that guy has big ambitions.""Ambitions?"When Eugene asked, Doni lifted his eyes from the magazine and glanced at the stairs leading to the basement."He plans to become the underboss when Valentine inherits the Luciano family."Underboss was the position directly below the boss, effectively leading the family."Does the underboss change when the boss changes?""All the ex

"Ten days from now, at the Long Island villa."Leo answered briefly."Are you taking Eugene too?"Doni asked, folding the magazine he had been holding in half."Of course.""Making an official debut at the council less than a month after entering this world. Isn't that a Cinderella story?"Doni clapped his hands, hitting his palm with the folded magazine.Eugene, who had been treated like the mafia world's Cinderella thanks to someone, pretended to make a mistake and yanked a handful of Valentine's hair hard with the towel. Valentine glanced back slightly and curled up the corner of his mouth. It was a reaction as if he had seen a cute antic.Valentine's eyes moved downward to Eugene's lips and narrowed slightly. Under his slightly lowered golden eyelashes, his blue eyes, immersed in a deep color, persistently traced Eugene's lips and nape. Somehow, Eugene's mouth went dry. Even though it was just a gaze, it felt as if Valentine's hands were wrapped around his neck. The memories of th

"Right. I understand. I'm just giving you a heads-up before making an official request to Luciano. Come visit my club sometime. I'll set you up with the hottest girls."After saying that, Don Cariello pulled the blonde woman he had pushed aside back to his side."Or what about this one? She's a new recruit with an artistic tongue."Despite having reason to feel offended, the blonde woman was smiling like a doll. She looked barely twenty years old. Even after hearing such lewd comments, she stood there smiling with dull eyes like an idiot. Seeing the woman and Don Cariello made Eugene's mouth feel dry."Well then, enjoy your meal."Don Cariello said heartily, ignoring Valentine's dismissal, and went to a table a little distance away."Can't take your eyes off her?"At Valentine's voice, Eugene tore his gaze away from the blonde woman with Don Cariello."She looks young."Eugene mumbled almost inaudibly and swallowed wine to rinse his dry mouth.He couldn't shake the thought that if the

"Don Cariello."Valentine called out. Though it wasn't particularly loud, Don Cariello's movements stopped immediately."Oh, Valentine. Am I disturbing your meal? I apologize."Don Cariello said with a broad smile. He seemed very pleased that Valentine had called out to him first."That guy, are you going to kill him or let him live?"Valentine asked, nodding toward the leather jacket."I can't let someone who touched the boss's property carelessly live."Don Cariello, who had been wiping his blood-covered hands with a napkin, glanced at the leather jacket lying on the floor and answered. Then he spat phlegm onto the body in the leather jacket.Valentine stood up from his seat. All eyes in the restaurant, including Eugene's, focused on Valentine. Valentine approached Don Cariello with the same face and gait as usual. And before Don Cariello could open his mouth to say anything, Valentine plunged the steak knife he was holding into the left eye of the man in the leather jacket.!!!!!!!

Long Island, New York.Just a 30-minute drive from Manhattan, but the scenery is completely different.Eugene had gone on vacation to the beaches of Long Island with his family when he was young. The memory was still vivid. The beautiful beach and playing in the sand, ice cream, and the beautiful white beach house they had rented for a few days. But Long Island, which he was revisiting after a very long time, was completely different from his memories. Or to be more precise, not all parts of Long Island were the same.After about 50 minutes of driving from Eugene's apartment, the car arrived at its destination.The elegant stone-pillared entrance to the mansion was large enough for two cars to pass through simultaneously. The car stopped at the entrance to go through a series of verification procedures before continuing. Then, in the distance, a palace-like building appeared. The car unhesitatingly passed between the spacious gardens and stopped after making a half-circle next to the

"I'm over 70 now. A sufficient age to retire. And Luciano needs a new atmosphere now. Young people these days can't stand the ways of old men like us."Mateo spoke quietly and pointed outside. A black luxury car that had passed through the entrance circled around the large circular fountain and parked. When a Luciano youth who had been waiting opened the rear door, a man got out. Men also emerged from the cars that had followed closely and parked in a row. They immediately lined up in an orderly fashion behind the man who had gotten out of the lead car. And they began walking toward the mansion in a group. It was an unusually orderly and angular movement that seemed more like an army than the mafia."...They are-"Eugene quietly muttered, looking at the middle-aged man walking at the head of the group."Belmonte is coming," Mateo's voice was different. Eugene briefly examined Mateo's expression and then cast his gaze outside."Belmonte..."As Eugene echoed, Mateo nodded."The boss, Gi

"Because of that, the previous Don Belmonte decided to give her shares in the hotel that was under construction. Don Colvino, who was also in the hotel business at the time, acknowledged his own responsibility and agreed with Belmonte's decision."Mateo paused briefly and looked alternately at the two bosses, Belmonte and Colvino. It was a gesture checking if they had any objections to what had been said so far. After confirming that the two bosses had no objections, Mateo continued."The reason Sofia Blanc received shares in the Paradise Hotel was because her activities as a singer were cut off due to the article about her being a 'mafia lover,' making it impossible for her to earn money. And at the time, both the previous Don Belmonte and Don Colvino were mentioned in the newspaper article."Mateo pulled out one piece of paper from the bundle of documents and showed it. The paper contained a newspaper article yellowed with age. Though not clearly visible, it seemed to be an article

"Goddammit," Don Cariello chewed on curses with an irritated face. But he didn't say anything more.After that, Gianni Chirico continued to mention the names of officials he was lobbying on behalf of New York's five major families and the annual bribes going to them. The figures mentioned by him were diverse and impressive. Judges, prosecutors, police, etc. Those who took bribes from the mafia were spread throughout the judicial system. And the amounts were enormous. New York's five major families were jointly bearing the huge cost of bribing collaborators within the judicial authorities. The astronomical figures that kept flowing out were staggering.When conclusions were reached on three issues, the council ended. For a meeting said to have been held after several years, it felt quick and simple. As the meeting ended, the executives of the five major families all rose from their seats. A luxurious party was prepared in the mansion's main hall.The Belmonte underboss, Tony Rico, cast

Leo scratched his forehead, seemingly embarrassed by his own flimsy excuse."I'll tell the Belmontes you're on a business trip."Valentine said nonchalantly, then leaned back into the car seat. His face made it clear he had no intention of listening to any more protests."We're going to Miami on a private jet?"Jerry, who had been keeping quiet, cautiously asked Leo. When Leo nodded, Jerry raised his eyebrows as if he'd hit the jackpot.An uncomfortable silence fell over the car. Valentine had always been that kind of man, but it couldn't feel good to be dragged around like this in such a situation. Eugene didn't feel like protesting further to a man who would do as he pleased anyway, regardless of objections.How long had he been staring out the car window? Something touched his forearm resting on his leg.Looking down, he saw white fingers creeping onto his forearm. They carefully slid down his arm, across the back of his hand, and slipped between Eugene's fingers. When left undistu

"Don Datero came to see you, didn't he? After yesterday, Eugene brother must have become the most famous person in New York. If Don Datero came all the way here to talk with you personally, that says it all, doesn't it?"Jerry chattered with an excited expression."Of course it's natural. Not only did you expose the FBI and Don Colvino's conspiracy by faking your death, but you also instantly—BANG!—took out Don Colvino while he was threatening Don Luciano with a gun to his head. This is practically like saving all of New York!""..."Hearing the heavily embellished heroic tale that Jerry had been spouting while drunk yesterday now coming out in broad daylight, Eugene felt like he wanted to clamp Jerry's mouth shut."If it weren't for our Eugene brother, wouldn't the council and all of New York have been destroyed by those FBI bastards? Right, brother?"Jerry sought agreement from Angelo Casani, who was approaching."That's right."Angelo Casani readily agreed with Jerry and went furth

They spoke simultaneously and then fell silent at the same time."...My mouth was dry from drinking too much, so I ate some candy."Eugene calmly said, picking up the candy wrappers and putting them on the nightstand."I see."Jerry nodded, adjusting the tray to a comfortable position for Eugene with an awkward expression. Eugene straightened his posture and removed the sheet. Two more candy wrappers were revealed, scattered on the bed."...Those too?"Jerry asked. Eugene silently collected the plastic wrappers and placed them on the nightstand.The freshly made frittata stimulated his appetite. Eugene moistened his throat with water, drained half a cup of strong coffee, and immediately picked up his fork. Jerry, perched on the edge of the bed watching Eugene eat, kept glancing at the candy wrappers on the nightstand. The twitching at the corner of his mouth suggested he had something he wanted to say."Could you get me another cup of coffee?"After finishing the remaining coffee and

"Jerry."Before Eugene could offer any comfort or greeting, Jerry's shoulders began to shake."I thought... you... were... dead..."Jerry sobbed, uttering each word separately, and as it became difficult to stand on one leg, he slowly slid downward while still embracing Eugene. Despite trying to keep Jerry upright, it was beyond Eugene's strength to support the large young man. Eventually, Jerry, just like on the first day he came to the Belmonte residence, wrapped his arms around Eugene's calves and shed tears. Tony Rico, who had initially watched with a mocking gaze, finally had to forcibly drag Jerry away, ending the emotional reunion."...I need to clean up."As the welcome was winding down, Eugene spoke while examining his disheveled appearance. Jerry, who had been sitting sprawled on the floor, sniffled and wobbled to his feet, tucking his crutch under his armpit. Perhaps because he was severely injured during the attack, or maybe because something had happened between them afte

"I'm sorry."The elderly man holding the gun to Don Luciano's temple, Don Colvino, apologized to the Chirico brothers with a melancholy expression."Everyone would be wise not to move."Don Colvino warned, pressing the gun muzzle harder against Don Luciano's temple. Leo, who had been aiming his gun at Don Colvino from right beside him, stepped back with a troubled expression."Unbelievable."Giovanni Belmonte was the first to mutter in a cold tone. Mateo and Alberto, who had been friends with Santino Colvino for decades, stood frozen with their eyes wide open in shock."Oh, Santino. My friend."Don Luciano sighed with a face immersed in sadness. Don Colvino's face contorted as if about to cry."I'm sorry, Ricardo. But I had no choice. Melania, my only granddaughter, was arrested on drug possession charges. Ricardo, you know Melania. She's a good girl who got into college on a scholarship. She just made a momentary mistake, falling for a friend's deception.""You could have told me.""

Just before reaching the yacht, Eugene looked at Valentine, who stood tall beside him. His golden hair, fluttering in the sea breeze, sparkled like gold dust under the strong sunlight. From the moment they boarded the yacht, Valentine and Eugene would return to being Luciano and Belmonte. It was uncertain how their relationship would unfold afterward. They hadn't discussed this point at all. But somehow, Eugene wasn't worried. He had a vague feeling that everything would work out. It wasn't forced optimism. It was simply a groundless belief that Valentine would resolve things on his own.Finally, they reached the yacht. Leo went first, pushing the wheelchair across the gangplank. Valentine followed behind."My God, Ricky! Valentine!"Mateo exclaimed, hugging Don Luciano and Valentine in turn and showering them with kisses. Alberto was no exception.Eugene walked toward Giovanni Belmonte, who stood tall. Giovanni Belmonte waited until Eugene reached him, then extended both arms to embr

"Now, now. Since this meeting is primarily to mediate the war between Luciano and Belmonte, let's focus on resolving that first. Don't forget, with the FBI involved, we need to wrap this up quickly."Don Colvino, who had been quiet until now, stepped in to urge reconciliation. But the atmosphere for reconciliation had already been broken."We can reconcile whenever we want. Right now, it seems we need to discuss something more important first."Don Datero, who had been sitting silently with an expressionless face, spoke up. Luca Datero, a young boss only in his thirties, typically kept a low profile at such gatherings out of respect for the other more senior bosses."I believe we need to first address the evidence against Don Luciano that the prosecutor has allegedly secured. If that evidence is real, it means one of our high-ranking Cosa Nostra officials is an FBI rat. This is no time to be talking about wars or reconciliation while we're carrying such a dangerous bomb inside our ran

The New York Council was convened again after just a few months.This council was called at the request of Don Pepe Cariello, boss of the Bonino Family, with the primary purpose of mediating the war between Luciano and Belmonte. Not only the warring parties Luciano and Belmonte, but also Colvino and Confezzioni, who had joined the conflict between the two families, immediately agreed to the council meeting. The reason was simple: Don Luciano's detention.Thanks to the council chairman facing imminent indictment, the council date was quickly established. Don Cariello, responsible for organizing this council, informed each family of the date, time, and location. Nobody raised any objections.The notified council location was an upscale residential area in Belport, Long Island. Luxury cars departing in succession from New York made their way to the driveway of the beach house. Men from the Bonino Family greeted visitors respectfully. The Bonino Family, typically considered the lowest ran

"Pizza?"Valentine asked out of nowhere.Eugene was about to snap, "You're thinking about pizza in this situation?" but simply shrugged instead. While it was absurd that Valentine was only thinking about dinner menu without any worries or concerns, it was also just like him. And as always, watching him be so carefree and confident somehow inspired a groundless belief that everything would work out."Let's go with pizza."When Eugene nodded, Leo turned the wheel with a cheerful face, saying he knew a place with killer pizza.* * *"How long does it take to confirm one identity? What? That's your problem. Stop making excuses and make sure you confirm it and give me results today. Otherwise, I'll visit your home tonight, drag your sleeping body out of bed, and roast you alive!"BANG!Tony Rico slammed down the receiver so hard it nearly broke, then continued fuming, unable to contain his anger."Still nothing?"
