Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 94: Brutally Honest
LUCREZIAPietro really pays enough attention to notice the true feelings I feel. Even though I did not tell him a word, and I was deliberately hiding my thoughts and feelings from him, it still did not escape his attention to know what I truly felt. He could have just turned a blind eye and pretend that he knew nothing, yet he still bothered to know what was wrong with me, even though I was trying my best to hide the truth because I didn’t want to bother him with it. Staring directly to his eyes, I slowly walked towards him. “Pietro, you say you do not love me, but why do you care so much about me? Is it possible that you just haven’t realized your feelings? You just don’t care about me because of who I am right? You care about me because you are also attracted to me too,” I thought to myself, using it as my fuel to drive me confident in what I am about to do. Pietro is indeed smart and thoughtful as I knew that he was. Ever since, I had never underestimated his capabilities. I

LUCREZIAMy chin trembled and my eyes slowly turned glassy upon hearing Pietro’s reply. As to not lose my face, I forced a smile and blinked my eyes to make the tears away just so I would save my dignity in front of him. I lowered my head, refusing to look at him as I pretended to be strong, that everything was okay, even if it was not.Pietro gulped and I saw how his hands itched to reach out to me, but he didn’t made any move to comfort me. He saw how hurt I was, he witnessed how his words had pained me. Yet, he chose to stood still and be firm with his words. He never loved me even once. That’s what he said. It made me realize how delusional I was to hope for the opposite of his words. I should have listened. Why did I have to make a fool out of me? Why do I have to risk everything for a game I’m losing right from the start?Why do I have to get hurt and hear this brutal truth first before I decide to do what is right?“Lucrezia—” Pietro whispered my name with pain in his voice.

LUCREZIA I couldn’t erase Pietro’s words from last night from my mind. The guilty look on his face, and how he felt that he was the one to be blamed for everything. Somehow, I think there is something more than meets the eye. I thought everything was simple. Everything was already right in front of me. It wouldn’t take a genius to understand Pietro and I’s situation.However, if I were to think about it clearly, shouldn’t there be a reason why Pietro doesn’t feel the same way that I do?I mean… he’s a man and I am a woman. We had been together in the same house for months and we’ve already went through so much together. How come that after all of that, he still doesn’t feel a bit attracted to me.It’s impossible that he never loved me even for just a second. I was kind to him, I doted on him as his wife. He already saw many sides of me. There’s just no way that he did not fell in love with me for no reason, right?Pietro doesn’t love me, period.It couldn’t be that simple, right?Pi

LUCREZIAEven though I didn’t know who the woman was, I allowed her to enter the mansion since I had a feeling about her.I couldn’t point out what it was, but judging by her confidence and the way she held herself in front of me earlier, I think she was telling the truth when she said that she and Pietro knew each other. I don’t know who she is in Pietro’s life, if she was ever Pietro’s childhood friend at all. The only way to find out who she was and her connection to Pietro is by agreeing with what she wants so I could talk to her. She wanted me to let her in, and this is my territory. She’s the one putting herself in danger not the other way around. I sauntered inside the mansion with the maid and her following behind me. When we finally entered inside, I turned around to see her reaction.I could still remember what my reaction was when I entered this place for the first time. It was after I married Pietro, the day that this place had become my home. Even though I’ve seen man

LUCREZIA“Fair enough, I did say that,” I answered back casually, as I turned around. Bianca is quick-witted and she has good memory also. It only took her a few exchange of dialogues with me to find out my real relationship with Pietro. However, she is not the only smart person in the room. “Since you had nothing important to say and I don’t have any questions to ask you. Why don’t you leave? The person you are here for is not here anyway,” I replied as I fixed the tea and the biscuits we barely touched on the table.Bianca scoffs, “Why? Is the person I’m looking for doesn’t come home to live with you often? Does he sleep at a different place instead ever since you came to his life?” Bianca dumped all of her questions.I’m not sure if she is trying to piss me off or if she just doesn’t know that her words could piss people. Luckily, I know all her tricks.“You should just shut your mouth. You sound so desperate to find out that there is no love between Pietro and I. If you keep tal
Last Updated : 2023-07-18Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 99: Eavesdrop
LUCREZIAI froze on my place as I continued to eavesdrop on Pietro and Bianca’s conversation, trying to decipher the meaning of their words and get to the bottom of what they were actually talking about. Right now, there is nothing else more important than finding out the secrets that Pietro is hiding from me. Even though I was hurt by Pietro’s words, I decided to stay and continue on secretly listening to their conversation than to flee and protect myself from getting hurt even more in the expense of not finding out the truth. I know too well that the world doesn’t revolve around me, and I learned it the hard way. Today, what matters is the secret that I need to know and not the things that might happen to me once I found out that truth. Once I find out the real reason why Pietro couldn’t give his heart to me, I will be able to willingly let go of him without any regrets. It would also be able help me in the healing process, since I need to know and accept the truth before I cou
Last Updated : 2023-07-19Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 100: Pietro's Reason for Marrying Lucrezia
LUCREZIAMy breath hitched and my heart started pounding in my ears when I heard Bianca’s question. My face turned serious as I await Pietro’s answer. I had asked the same question to Pietro many times before, and every time I ask him that question, I always get the same answer from him.He made it clear to me that the only reason why he married me was because of my position and the power that I will bring to his business. He only married me merely because I were a Rocchi, and it would be a waste of opportunity to let me end up with the Cassiano crime family instead. However, hearing Bianca’s words made me realize that Pietro’s answers were a lie. Pietro did not marry me to benefit from our marriage. In fact when he married me, he willingly placed himself in danger instead. What danger could probably that be? Why would Pietro even marry me and place himself in danger because of me? Why would he lie about the purpose of our marriage. If Pietro indeed married me even though it mea

LUCREZIA 8:20PMMy lips quivered and tears started to fill my eyes when I heard the most painful truth in my life. I bit my lower lip and pressed a hand over my mouth to silence my cries. What should I expect in this situation? Wasn’t I the one who forced myself on Pietro?I was the one who did all things just to have him. I even forced him to go on a date with me by using a lame excuse of a favor that I gave him when we were a child. I should have known that life is not just about marrying the person you love. I was so immature back then. I only thought of myself, but I never thought about his side. Imagine being forced to marry someone you don’t love and deciding to stick through that marriage only out of pity?Life doesn’t end once you get what you ended. There is no happy ever after. in real life, you story only ends when you die. Just because I ended up marrying Pietro, it doesn’t mean that everything is finally done because I already got what I wanted. Until now, I never th

“Shit! Shit! Shit! You imbeciles! I’m paying you money and you can’t even kill one damn man!” Eros was agitated and he couldn’t stop yelling while staring at his computer. He had cameras all over his mansion so he could see everything that was happening. Eros had never seen Pietro fought anyone before. He didn’t expect him to be this good. He is like James Bond, taking down so many people at a time. Eros is not fully aware of Pietro’s past. He has no idea about the training that he got as a little child. Pietro was trained to be like a killer machine. His training could be likened to that of Black Widow, if only that character was real. Eros kept sending and sending all his people, but Pietro killed all the men trying to stop him from reaching his wife until Eros had no one else to send and stop Pietro anymore. Lucrezia had no access to the computer, but she witnessed how Eros was scared out of his wits as he watched what Pietro is doing to his men. Lucrezia could also fully hear
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 159: Killing Machine
Lucrezia’s stomach turned. Even though they are criminals and big time mafias, they still have their own principles and things that they couldn’t bring themselves to do.Eros is just pure evil, a monster.He is a disgrace to the mafias. What kind of man could say those words with a straight face.“What does these things have to do with my father? What does it have to do with Pietro? Why do you have to kill him?” Lucrezia asks.“You see, your father and I share the same goal. We want to be the best in the Commission and Pietro is an obstacle stopping us from reaching that goal.Lucrezia felt more guilty upon hearing this. She thought Pietro was the one who was greedy. She thought he was the one trying to become the next capo di tutti capi.“If that is so, then why spare me? Why spare my father? I’m Pietro’s wife. Why not kill me with him?”“Because your father and I had a deal.” Eros answers taking Lucrezia by surprise.“A deal?” Lucrezia mutters breathlessly feeling like she just disco
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 158: Eros's Business
“Vaffanculo! Vaffanculo!” Lucrezia curses repeatedly inside her car as she drove along with other Italian curses that she grew up hearing from their Italian helpers at home. Lucrezia pressed on the gas pedal, speeding at the almost empty highway at dawn to reach her husband at home who has no idea that his life is in danger. She shouldn’t ave gone to her home. She shouldn’t have told her father anything. She shouldn’t have stuck her nose where it doesn’t belong in the first place. She shouldn’t have opened the door to Pietro’s office and indulged herself in the secrets that he was hiding. No wonder why Pietro is keeping things from her. Just hours after she found out his secret and she had already placed Pietro’s life in danger. Lucrezia had no idea that her father is working with Eros Cassiano to get rid of Pietro. She should have known that in the mafia, everybody has their own dark secrets and hidden agendas to hide. The fact that Pietro has one, shouldn’t have surprised her an
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 157: My father betrayed me
Raimondo was silent for a long time as he listened to his daughter as she confides into him about Pietro’s secret. Raimondo earnestly listened without questioning her daughter’s words or interrupting her. Raimondo just stared into her daughter’s eyes as she went on with her story as if he was listening to her because he was worried about her. Lucrezia is supposed to tell her father about what Pietro’s secrets that she had just found about, the secrets that she discovered in Pietro’s office, but she changed her mind last minute because she thought it was a very important secret and it could implicate Pietro’s life, so she couldn’t rashly share those things to her father. Additionally, Lucrezia knows that her father would react negatively if he founds out bout that. Even she reacted so negatively when she finds out that her husband is planning something against the Commission. Unless she had ensured everything, unless she had everything straight with Pietro, nobody can find out abou
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 156: Real Identity Exposed
PIETRO woke up because of his nightmare. For the first time, ever since he slept in the same bed as his wife, he woke up with the same dream, the same nightmare again.Ever since Pietro was a child, there wasn’t a night when he had not woken up haunted by nightmares. He always dreamed of the same thing, the friend that he killed. Every night, he would jolt up awake and the last thing he could remember was the picture of him pulling the trigger and killing his friend. His dream is very vivid like it all happened again. It was always exactly how he remembered it happen. Saying that Pietro was traumatized would be an understatement. Pietro was broken by his past, and only Lucrezia was able to piece him together. Through the love and kindness that she showed him, Pietro was able to forgive himself and see his value. Pietro calmly sits up, his breathing was rash and heavy like he had just ran a marathon. When his racing heart had finally slowed down, he opens the light beside him caus
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 155: Exposed Secrets
It’s already evening when I arrived home which means Pietro must be waiting for me at home. I wasn’t planning to stay outside until evening, but I had to travel between two different cities because Agrippa’s house and the place where I am going to get the key are located at two opposite cities. I wore a huge smile on my face as if I had the best day of my life as soon as I entered home. Just as I am expecting, Pietro is waiting for me at the living room just like how I always wait at the living room for him to welcome him home. Pietro’s eyes dropped on the shopping bags I’m carrying as soon as I entered the door. Seeing this, he did not dare ask where I went. He just assumed that I went for a shopping spree. On the way home, I stopped at a mall and shopped random things so that Pietro would think I spent the whole day at the mall. “You had a great day?” Pietro asked me as he walked towards me.I grinned at him. “I bought everything that I wanted.”“Good, you own all my money. You
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 154: Life of a Mafia’s Wife
Agrippa sighed at the other side of the door, the loudest that I have ever heard her sigh. She knew that there is no way I’d leave this place. Even though my foot is hurting, jammed and pressed at the foot of their door, I wasn’t willing to remove my foot and let her go.No, I won’t leave this place, not until I find out everything that is happening, and not until I have given all the help that I could give her. No one deserves to be abused like that. No woman or no wife should live in the same house with her husband abusing her. My face softened and my heart ached inside my heart when Agrippa finally opened the door, revealing her inside. Agrippa refused to look at me on the eye. Her head is lowered in shame even though she had nothing to be ashamed about. I swallowed hard, not saying anything. You wouldn’t know what to say once you saw a hurt person in front of you. I’m afraid that if I say something it will only make Agrippa close herself from me even more. Asking her if she’s

LUCREZIALife was back to normal when Pietro had arrived back home. Our life routine is back, and things got pretty boring for me once again as a wife who is always left at home without anything to take care of.If only Pietro gave me kids to take care of, then I wouldn’t have to feel so bored and I would stay all day at home without any complaints.I have sent Agrippa a message that I would visit her today. Although I haven’t received any reply from the heads up message I sent her, I decided to still just go. At least I have given her a heads up. Wheteher she replies or not it’s actually out of my control.With the help of Pietro’s driver and bodyguard that he had hired specially for me. I went to the mall first to buy something for Agrippa and her three little kids.I do not want to go there empty handed. Besides, I rarely go to their house to visit and I don’t give gifts to Agrippa’s kids often.
Let Me Love You, Don Chapter 152: Housewife
LUCREZIAI stared at the ceiling as I lay on the bed with my eyes wide open as Pietro softly snores beside me. While Pietro is having the best sleep of his life, I couldn’t sleep because of I couldn’t stop thinking about the conversation we had in the car.For some reasons, Pietro’s words doesn’t sit well with me. I really don’t believe that Orenzio is the man behind all of this. I don’t think it’s possible that Orenzio knew about his father’s disease beforehand and that he was the one who told Serrano about it.I couldn’t forget the surprised look on Orenzio’s face and the anger that he felt as Serano stood on the stage making accusations against his father and telling everyone that he was hiding his dementia.Even if that was all just an act, I don’t believe that Orenzio could pull all that off so perfectly. A person always leaves a hint when he lies, and his eyes always tells
