I'm In Love With A Criminal Chapter 47
In a candy store where only one or two customers visit a day, there's almost nothing to do. But Jerry, whose enthusiasm reached the sky, was busy sweeping and cleaning the store all day. Moving around the store without stopping for a moment, he made it so clean that it was hard to find even a speck of dust. He put particular effort into cleaning the front glass window. In Eugene's view, Jerry was more suited for a normal job than being in the Mafia. With such diligence and industriousness, he would succeed in whatever he did. If Eugene were the owner of this store, Jerry would already be a manager."Boss, coffee."Jerry, who had gone out sometime earlier, handed over a steaming hot coffee. The good aroma made Eugene's stomach stir and saliva pool in his mouth. Good coffee always knows how to please people."Thanks."Eugene gladly accepted the coffee. Jerry made a satisfied expression. After thoroughly searching the area around the store for days, he had finally succeeded in finding a

The two old men appeared to be longtime friends, but there was clearly a hierarchy between them. When Janni, the consigliere, spoke, Henry eventually sat back down in his seat.The air in the room was very heavy. Everyone was staring at Henry. Exposed to their gazes, the old man hunched his neck and wiped his temples and the nape of his neck with a napkin. Sweat dampened the napkin."We were old friends."Janni Alburno suddenly spoke. Henry's wrinkled neck moved slightly as if swallowing dry saliva. Henry put down the napkin he was holding and reached out to Janni."Listen, Janni."The voice calling Janni was soaked with tension, and also very desperate. Given their similar ages, the two must have known each other for decades. But there was not a hint of warmth in Janni Alburno's eyes as he looked at Henry."Take off your clothes."Janni Alburno said. Henry swallowed hard. He no longer seemed to have the luxury of hiding his tension."I said take off your clothes, Henry."Janni Alburn

Eugene carefully wiped the gun with a napkin from the table to remove his fingerprints, then handed it back to Valentine. Taking the gun, Valentine smiled, showing his teeth slightly."You're not just a lawyer. You're the one who will become my consigliere."With the returned gun, Valentine shot Henry Pisano in the thigh. Pfft. Despite being muffled by the silencer, the gunshot was louder than expected. The old man groaned loudly. Eugene glanced at the blood-covered old man and grabbed Valentine's wrist."Anything more is pointless.""Is that so?""End it now."When Eugene spoke firmly, Valentine made a show of considering it with a "hmm.""Claudio."Eugene gripped Valentine's wrist tightly. Eugene's hand holding Valentine's wrist was trembling slightly. Those pale blue eyes glanced at Eugene's hand firmly gripping his wrist, then gave a faint snort.Eugene finally watched as Valentine put a bullet in Henry Pisano's head. The old man's body went limp. The carpet was soaked with blood

"Hey."Valentine greeted casually and turned his eyes to the television. He had a lollipop in his mouth. The crinkling sound of candy wrappers kept ringing out. Eugene looked down and saw candy wrappers at Valentine's feet and Angel playing with them.Eugene's brow furrowed. He irritably picked up the candy wrappers and put them in the trash can. The trash can was right under the coffee table, right at Valentine's feet. It was unbearable that Valentine would just drop them on the floor with the trash can clearly visible."Didn't anyone teach you to put trash in the trash can?"When Eugene complained, Valentine lightly snorted. Eugene's frown deepened. Valentine stared at Eugene for a moment, then took out the white stick from his mouth. It was an empty stick after he had finished eating the candy. Valentine showed it to Eugene conspicuously and then threw it in the trash can. The candy stick made a 'ting' sound as it hit the inside wall of the metal trash can."So you do know how."Eu

"Valentine really seems to like you, brother Eugene," Jerry said, quietly approaching from the counter where he had been sitting silently. He envied how unusually friendly Valentine was toward Eugene.Jerry, who had briefly served as a driver when everyone from the candy store was away, had continued to hang around the store afterward. But it didn't seem to be Valentine's wish. Whenever Valentine appeared, Jerry would hide in some corner and not make a sound. He was afraid of making eye contact and being thrown out of the store."Valentine really loves candy," Jerry said, unwrapping a lollipop similar to the one Valentine had taken earlier and putting it in his mouth. As a young man, Jerry wanted to imitate everything his idol Valentine did."I wonder why he likes candy so much."Hearing Jerry's muttering, Eugene smirked. Jerry's question was also Eugene's question. Valentine was a killer who took contracts from the mafia to murder people. It was only natural to wonder why such a man

The place they arrived at by car was the Italian restaurant in Brooklyn where Eugene had first met Don Luciano.The entrance to the restaurant, which had been bustling with customers on his previous visits, had a "Closed" sign hanging."Oh, Angel!" Don Luciano greeted Valentine. At the table sat the consigliere Mateo Martino and the underboss Alberto Burcelli."Come, sit down," Mateo gestured. Alberto indicated the empty seats with a nod. There were three empty chairs at the large round table. Seats prepared for Valentine, Eugene, and Leo."You handled this job exceptionally well and cleanly," Don Luciano praised, patting Valentine's shoulder. Mateo smiled with his eyes as he sipped wine, and Alberto put down the newspaper he had been holding onto the table.The Miami Herald.A local Miami newspaper. A large headline was emblazoned on the front page:"BLOODY WAR BETWEEN GANGS OVER DRUG TRAFFICKING RIGHTS. THIRTY MEMBERS OF EMERGING GANG KILLED IN TWO DAYS. GANG ANNIHILATED. BRUTAL MU

"Ricky!""Don!"Everyone cried out in surprise. Valentine supported the suffering Don Luciano and held him in his arms. Don Luciano, who normally appeared large and solid as a rock, looked very small in Valentine's arms. Eugene looked at the white tablecloth on the floor. Between the broken dishes and spilled food were small red spots that looked like blood. Shifting his gaze to Don Luciano's lips confirmed it.Violent coughing and hemoptysis."Call an ambulance!"Eugene shouted toward the waiter standing in the corner of the restaurant. The fidgeting waiter snapped to attention and picked up the phone at the counter. Before long, the sound of an ambulance siren could be heard in the distance. The ominous feeling of the bell he had heard leaving the candy store scratched at the back of his mind again. The siren sound, much louder and higher than the bell from earlier, was gradually getting closer. Though it was a sound he'd heard occasionally, somehow it sounded like a warning bell to

Instead of going straight to the hospital room, Valentine gestured to Eugene, whom he had left alone until now. The waiting room's attention immediately focused on Eugene. To escape the oppressive stares, Eugene quickly moved to Valentine's side.Upon entering the hospital room, Don Luciano greeted them from his bed. Standing beside him was a familiar figure—Don Santino Colvino, boss of the Colvino Family and a longtime ally of the Luciano Family.Don Colvino embraced Valentine, then returned to Don Luciano's side and took his hand."To see you lying here like this... Our era truly seems to be ending," Don Santino said with a sad expression. Don Luciano gripped Don Colvino's hand tightly."Listen, Santino. If there's any troubling movement afterward, please take care of Claudio.""Of course. The Lucianos and Colvinos have been longtime allies, haven't they? And we will continue to be."The two bosses reaffirmed the cooperation between their Families."By the way... I'm worried about B

"I'm curious about Eugene's thoughts too."Don Luciano suddenly said. Eyes completely different from his usual ones—heavy and dull—were staring directly at Eugene. With the boss speaking that way, Eugene could no longer refuse."My thoughts are..."Eugene paused, looking briefly at Valentine. He was looking at Eugene with eyes so deeply sunken that his thoughts were impossible to guess. Valentine, who wanted war and wanted Giovanni Belmonte dead, knew that Eugene opposed war. Eugene avoided Valentine's eyes and turned his gaze to Don Luciano.War should be avoided.That was Eugene's thought. But given these people's nature as mafiosi, that was a ridiculous notion. Then minimizing it would be the next best alternative."We should make them pay, but we shouldn't touch Giovanni Belmonte, the boss."Mateo exhaled a faint sigh filled with regret."First, the other three families wouldn't agree, and second, even if we got their agreement or tacit consent, if we hit Giovanni and bring down B

The entrance door opened. All eyes turned."Good morning," Don Luciano greeted as he entered. Unlike the brief glimpse Eugene had yesterday, he now appeared normal, without even an oxygen tube. With Don Luciano leading, followed by consigliere Mateo and underboss Alberto taking their seats, the table was complete, and the meal began in earnest.Eugene ate a still-warm croissant and sipped strong coffee while observing Valentine beside him. Seeing how he drained several glasses of milk in succession and how quickly the bread and salami disappeared from his plate, it was clear his condition had improved.Eugene felt a gaze from across the table. Turning his head, he saw Mateo sitting opposite him, smiling with wrinkles around his eyes. Dressed neatly in a brown suit first thing in the morning, he appeared to be a gentle, gentlemanly old man.The underboss Alberto, seated beside Mateo, leaned toward him and said something. Mateo took his eyes off Eugene and engaged in conversation with A

Though he had left such a message for Derek, the problem was how to approach Belmonte. Before relations between Luciano and Belmonte had deteriorated to this point, there might have been opportunities to make contact somehow, but in this situation, it was impossible.No, even if this situation hadn't developed, the arms trafficking deal with the Russian mafia was such important business that only the leadership and a few key figures among the Belmonte would know the relevant information. There was no way someone from the Luciano side—moreover, someone with the ambiguous status of not yet being an official member but merely someone Valentine intended to make his consigliere in the future—could gain access to such information.If there was someone who could serve as a bridge for Eugene to approach Belmonte..."...Luca Datero."Eugene thought of the young boss of the Confezzoni. The boss of a family that was neither on Luciano's side nor Belmonte's. Perhaps he could help Eugene approach
I'm In Love With A Criminal Chapter 64
Given that his grandson had been attacked, Don Luciano's anger must be great. It seemed unlikely that he would try to resolve this situation by convening the Commission without seeking revenge. But to prevent any possibility of Valentine being injured again, given his deteriorating health, there was also a possibility he might set aside his grudge and try to resolve the situation amicably.The problem was that the other underbosses and members, already heated up, might not want this to end here. And... above all, Valentine wanted war.Jerry, who had been rubbing the back of his neck, suddenly shifted his gaze behind Eugene. Almost simultaneously, someone placed a hand on Eugene's waist. A distinctly hot hand, felt even through clothing. It was Valentine."To mediate conflicts between families, either both sides' leadership needs to request a Commission meeting, or at least one side must request it. Don Luciano won't want a Commission meeting. And Giovanni Belmonte will feel the same."

His hands should have been trembling, but instead his mind felt calmly settled. Eugene stared at the public phone for a moment, then turned and headed for the back door of the veterinary clinic.As he pushed open the rusty door and entered the storage room, the smell of disinfectant stimulated his nostrils. The treatment seemed to be finished, as Chan was handing a medicine bottle to Valentine and saying something. Upon noticing Eugene's return, Chan handed the bottle he was holding to Eugene."Put Angel on a diet, Eugene. Otherwise, he'll get sick."Chan said with a hint of a smile on his face, then left the storage room. Now only Valentine and Eugene remained in the storage room. Eugene examined the medicine bottle once and carefully tucked it into his pocket.Valentine flicked his hand. It meant come closer. As Eugene approached, Valentine grabbed his waist and pulled him close. With Valentine sitting in a chair, his face was around the level of Eugene's chest. He held Eugene's wai

Eugene carefully pushed Valentine away and stood up from the chair. Then he pushed Valentine into the chair. Perhaps because Eugene was frowning, Valentine sat down obediently. His face was pale under the dim light.The door through which Jerry had left opened. Jerry entered first, followed by another man. Eugene's expression turned astonished at the sight of the young man in a white coat."Chan?""...Huh? Eugene?"The veterinarian Chan in his white coat stood there momentarily unable to hide his surprise, then scratched his head."You two know each other?"Jerry asked, looking back and forth between them."I came through the back door, so I didn't realize this was the place."Eugene said, recovering from his surprise."Yeah... I didn't know Eugene would be here either."Chan laughed awkwardly. Then he promptly approached Valentine."Let's treat this first."Chan took scissors and cut Valentine's clothes. When he cut away the blood-soaked shirt, a bright red gaping wound on his forear

Valentine held his gun with the barrel pointing upward. His finger moved almost imperceptibly on the trigger, as if oiling the finger muscle connected to it. His eyes were completely focused, marking his target, preparing to pull the trigger.Valentine shifted, moving away from the bumper as if about to exit the car. Eugene grabbed Valentine's arm firmly. Valentine looked at Eugene, who shook his head decisively. Exposing his entire body to gunfire was a crazy act he had witnessed enough of earlier. Besides, before they'd faced pistols, but now they were up against submachine guns. Absolutely not.Valentine smiled, showing his teeth slightly. His eyes seemed to say "How cute." They overflowed with confidence, as if asking, "You think something like this could hurt me?" Eugene tightened his grip on Valentine's forearm. The blue eyes looked down at Eugene's hand gripping his arm. Seeing how tightly Eugene was holding on—tendons and joints prominently showing—Valentine relaxed the finger

Having reached this conclusion, Eugene furrowed his brow.If the recent attack was truly due to an internal information leak—Those who knew Valentine was moving to the Long Island villa might not stop at the attack in front of the apartment. The route from Manhattan to the Luciano villa was predictable. There was a good possibility that other attackers were lying in wait somewhere along that route."Bullets?"Valentine broke the heavy silence. Jerry picked up the handgun on the passenger seat to check it, then shook his head. So all they had left was the .45 caliber Valentine had captured and the few bullets remaining in it."I guess we should have gone to the candy store."Jerry cast an anxious glance through the rearview mirror. Then he asked:"Should we turn the car around now?""These guys shot guns in the middle of New York. They're not the type to hold back from attacking in front of the candy store.""At the candy store, we could handle even several of these amateur gangs at o

"谁呀?" (Who is it?)Chinese words were heard from a corner of the small shop. Startled, Eugene turned to see an old man with white hair and a deeply wrinkled face. The old man showed no particular surprise at the intruders who had entered through the back door or the pistols they held, but simply stared at them with black eyes."Car keys."Valentine held out his palm toward the old man, who was barely tall enough to reach Valentine's waist. The Chinese old man glanced at Valentine's outstretched hand, then stared blankly again."Looks like he doesn't understand?"Jerry said. This time, instead of his palm, Valentine pressed the gun barrel against the old man's forehead. And spoke again."Car keys."The old man kept his mouth shut and stared up at Valentine. His face showed no concern whatsoever for the gun barrel pressed against his forehead. Meanwhile, chaotic siren sounds continued to flow in from outside the shop.Eugene thought Valentine would push the old man's forehead with the g
