“Why are you silent?”The question made Natalie swallow. Her heart told her to turn around and face Beverley. She wanted to apologize, but her brain sensibly forbade it.In the past, she had already wronged Beverley a lot. She did not want to cause her any more trouble. Not knowing each other was the best way for them.“Sorry, we don’t know each other. Don’t bother me,” Natalie said flatly.Beverley frowned. “Then why are you avoiding me?”Natalie did not answer. Beverley finally walked up to her. She immediately looked away.“Natalie, it’s you, right?”Natalie’s emotions and body became tense. She pretended to chuckle before finally turning to Beverley. Her gaze was flat and cold.“You must have recognized the wrong person,” she said expressionlessly. She was about to walk away, but Beverley held her back.“We’ve been enemies for a long time. I can’t possibly mis-recognize you,” Beverley whispered. There was no hostility whatsoever in her face, as if what happened in the past was lon

Dante took Natalie to a dark room that was very closed off. When he turned on the lights, she immediately froze at the sight around her. Her face turned slightly pale.“This is...”Fear and nervousness crept into Natalie’s heart. In that room, there were many sex play tools, which even supported sadism and masochism. It was so numerous and diverse. Any normal person would be shocked to see it.Unconsciously, Natalie stepped back. She gripped the towel covering her body tightly. Dante must be crazy!Dante suddenly held Natalie’s hand. He moved to stand behind her. His hands held her shoulders, and then, as he leaned in, he whispered in her ear, “Welcome to my world.”Natalie’s body stiffened slightly. “You must be crazy,” she murmured.“Am I?” Dante rubbed Natalie’s arm and went down to her hand. “We made a deal. You didn’t forget, did you?”They had indeed made a deal. However, it was a forced agreement, and Natalie felt it was very unfair. Moreover, she didn’t know that Dante was a c

Natalie screamed hysterically alone in her room. The belief in her honesty and innocence simply crumbled and shattered.Tears finally fell down her cheeks. She never thought that Dante’s suspicions were true. She was the one who had been thinking too simply.“How could this be?” she muttered hoarsely. She had always thought Lucas sold her for money and that Dante was the one who was too paranoid to suspect him. However, she was wrong. Lucas had another purpose. And his purpose was anything but simple.That’s right. It was Lucas, wasn’t it? That man was the mastermind behind it all, right?Her gaze went blank. How worthless was she that others just wanted to use her?Natalie’s legs went limp. She struggled to put on her nightgown before collapsing to the floor. Suddenly, Lizzy knocked loudly on her bedroom door.“Miss, are you okay?!” the girl shouted. She was worried because she heard Natalie’s hysterical screams.“Leave me alone!” screamed Natalie. Her hands crumpled the paper in her

The following night, Natalie tried to dress beautifully. She wore the black silk belted open halter dress she bought yesterday. It was a backless dress that reached her ankles.Her wavy hair was flowing freely, adding to the sexy vibe. Her look was further enhanced by accessorizing with long earrings and a coiled snake-shaped white gold ring whose scales were built up with diamond grains.Natalie honestly loved the way she looked. She smiled contentedly as she spun in front of the mirror, but her smile slowly faded when she remembered she was leaving with Dante.She sighed heavily. There was a sudden knock on the door. “Miss, are you ready? Mr. Vittorio has come to fetch you.”“Yes, I’ll be right out!” said Natalie loudly. She put on her sunglasses and picked up her clutch bag before walking out.A masculine musk and woody scent wafted up the stairs. The scent came from Dante, who was sitting on the sofa, busy playing with his tablet. Beside him, Alex sat eating an apple leisurely.Na
Last Updated : 2024-07-28Mr. Mafia's Wild Desire 24. Dinner
The crowded dinner Dante was referring to was an executive dinner attended by many upper-middle-class corporate executives in New York. Some even came from out of state.When Natalie first entered the venue, she couldn’t help but gulp. She stopped her steps and gripped Dante’s arm firmly. “Are you out of your mind? What if they recognize me?” she whispered worriedly. Dante chuckled. “They’re busy people. You think they’ll care about you?”That answer slapped Natalie a little. Dante certainly wasn’t going to take any chances that cost him. So, she didn’t have to worry about that at all.Finally, she let Dante lead her toward the other guests. Alex followed them with his bag, ready in case Dante needed his help.“Dante!” Someone suddenly approached them. It was Charles, a man Natalie already knew. The middle-aged man was also present there.Dante smiled. “You seem very excited,” he said.“Of course I am.” Charles chuckled, then turned to look at Natalie. He wanted to kiss her cheek, bu

“Wait a minute. I’m going to the restroom,” Natalie told Dante after finishing her chocolate fondant, which was so sweet. The man suddenly lifted her chin. His thumb rubbed the corner of her sexy lips where the chocolate had melted.“Don’t make trouble, baby,” Dante whispered, after licking his thumb with a seductive look in his eyes.Natalie swallowed and shook her head. She remembered the lesson from the last time when she failed to escape. Dante would only get meaner to her.“I won’t,” she assured. The man just shut up and let her go.Finally, Natalie went to the restroom, which was not too far from the venue. She quickly did her business, which was to pee. The combination of the champagne and the cold room made it unbearable.After coming out of the cubicle, someone suddenly appeared from another cubicle. It was Violet. Natalie cursed her luck. Why did she have to meet that woman again?Violet looked at her with an unfriendly face. As she stepped over to the sink, she quipped, “Is

Dante took Natalie out of the venue without saying goodbye to his colleagues. His actions attracted quite a lot of attention, especially from the ladies, who were curious about what happened. However, he didn’t think anything of it.In his arms, Natalie was clutching Dante’s suit tightly with her head buried in his chest. Her feelings were mixed and chaotic.She was angry at Dante for always treating her like a toy. Her heart was also saddened that Dante didn’t trust her that much. He had even brought her together with Brent just to see how she would react.Dante really went too far. Even so, Natalie realized only he could save her from Brent. So she had put away her pride to beg like a helpless woman.Natalie’s tears stained Dante’s thick black suit. The man didn’t protest or say anything. Only after they got into the elevator did she look up.“Put me down,” Natalie whispered.“Your leg hurts,” Dante replied, without looking at her.“Put me down, Dante! What do you care about me for

Dante must be crazy! Natalie cursed silently. She gripped the car seat with her heart beating fast. Her beautiful face was pale and tense.“Isn’t there another way?!” she shouted frantically.“We’ve used another way, darling. Does it work?” Dante replied as he watched the rearview mirror.The car sped down the road at high speed. Alex was an excellent driver. He could drive crazy as if he didn’t care about his own life.The sound of police sirens could be heard far behind. Of course, the police were after them after all the unrest on the street. However, Dante and Alex didn’t care about that at all.“Oh, my god...” Natalie took a deep breath.After the tension-filled ride, their car finally entered a tunnel that was deserted of vehicles. The tunnel highway was wide and very free.Dante rolled down the window at the same time Alex lowered the car’s speed. The enemy behind them took the opportunity to overtake them. However, when their cars were almost parallel, Dante quickly pointed hi

“What happened to you, sis?” Kelsey let go of the hug. She cupped her hand on Natalie’s cheek and gently wiped away her tears. A complicated look filled her eyes.They had been separated since Kelsey was in middle school. Even before Natalie was imprisoned, they rarely saw each other. Even so, Kelsey used to see Natalie’s face either on the internet or in magazines. She knew her sister’s appearance wasn’t like that and shouldn’t have changed that much.Natalie shook her head and smiled. “Nothing. I just had surgery to change my identity. Call me Cavendish in the future, okay?”Kelsey didn’t say anything. She pulled Natalie’s hand towards her dorm room. She lived alone there, so she had more freedom to bring guests in.“Sis, I missed you.” Kelsey hugged Natalie after they entered the room. She burst into tears. “I’m sorry I couldn’t be a good sister,” she said through tears.“No, Kelsey.” Natalie shook her head. “You’ve suffered a lot over the years. Living alone isn’t easy, but you’ve
Mr. Mafia's Wild Desire 120. Follow and Watch Her
Natalie sat near the plane window. Her seat was only economy class, but she didn’t complain or mind. Just being able to go to London was good for her.Moments later, the plane took off. Natalie stared out the window in silence. She tried not to think about anything, including Dante. Since yesterday, she had always distracted her mind from thinking or remembering anything about him.Meanwhile, Dante was in the first-class seat. He wasn’t worried that Natalie would escape his watchful eye. They were on the same plane, after all.The trip took a while. They arrived in London at midnight. Natalie got off the plane and immediately looked for a money changer at the airport. Luckily, she had experience flying to London, so there was no confusion.She exchanged her dollar bills for British currency and then left the airport to find a place to stay. Somehow, she felt that someone was following and watching her. She quickly turned around and looked around, but no one looked suspicious.Natalie
Mr. Mafia's Wild Desire 119. Departing for London
The next day, Aland went to Dante’s penthouse without Natalie knowing. He sneaked out and pretended to be mysterious when leaving the hotel. George, who had been watching them since last night, frowned.“Where is he going?”George quietly followed Aland. He became even more curious after realizing Aland was going to Dante’s penthouse. “What’s he planning?”Aland was asked by Dante to pretend to steal. So, he acted mysteriously and carefully. He knocked on the door. It wasn’t long before Cedric opened it.“Aland, you—”“I want to see Mr. Vittorio,” Aland said.Cedric let him in and closed the door again. Then Aland went straight to Dante. It turned out that the man had already prepared the items he would take.“Here are Natalie’s passport and wallet. She has to leave tonight,” Dante said seriously.“Are you really going to just let her go? What if she runs into trouble in London?” Aland asked cautiously.Dante smiled. “You don't need to worry. I’ve already arranged everything.”Aland c

Dante lay in the coffin comfortably. The lid was not closed, so he could see Alex looking at him flatly. “Looks like you’re quite happy living in a coffin,” Alex quipped.The smile on Dante’s lips grew. He heard the sound of approaching footsteps and signaled Alex to be quiet. This time, he wanted to know how his younger brother would respond.Anthony stared at the black coffin in the living room with narrowed eyes. Roberto, who saw his arrival, immediately asked, “Why did you come here?”“Grandpa, I heard about it,” Anthony said without removing his gaze from the coffin. He hadn’t gotten close enough to it to see Dante’s face or body.“Why do you have to hide things like this? Is my brother really dead?” Anthony asked his grandfather.Roberto took a deep breath. “Anthony, how many people expected his death? If our enemies find out about it, they will immediately take advantage of the situation,” he replied seriously.“Why did you come here? You haven’t answered my question,” the old
Mr. Mafia's Wild Desire 117. Playing Tricks
That night, Natalie ran out of the apartment building looking like a mess. Her long hair was tangled and messy. She was only wearing pajamas, so her arms, bruised from Dante’s whipping, were visible to others.Her cheeks were red from the man’s slap, and there were even traces of his fingers. She looked down and covered it with her hands because she didn’t want others to see it.Barefoot, Natalie ran on the sidewalk. People might notice her, thinking she was crazy or homeless. However, she didn’t care. Her feelings were completely shattered, and she just wanted to escape as far as possible.Snowflakes fell onto her body, making her even colder. Her lips turned pale and blue. She hugged her body in the hope that no one would chase her.Unknown to Natalie, someone was watching and following her from afar. It was George who was always watching the apartment building. He wanted to approach her to find out if the information about Dante’s death was true.Just as he was about to approach Na

Natalie was really sick. That whole day, she just lay in bed with a weak body. Even the next day, she had trouble getting out of bed. Lizzy, who knew about her situation, became worried.“Mister, don’t you want to do something? She’s really sick, not just pretending,” Lizzy said to Dante. She hoped he would call a doctor or do something to treat Natalie.Dante was lazing around in his room. He was pretending to be dead, so he couldn’t do any work outside. When Lizzy spoke, he only glanced at her. “Just let her be sick. I won’t bother her,” he said.“Don’t you still need her existence? If she’s sick, how will she get to London?” Lizzy continued to persuade her employer.“Why do you care so much about her? You’re better off here, keeping me company,” Dante said as he patted the bed beside him. He smiled sweetly at the girl.“Sir, no kidding!” Lizzy gave Dante an annoyed look. She knew he wasn’t serious.“Alright. I’ll see her later,” Dante said indifferently.Lizzy finally stopped bothe

That night, Natalie was too tired from crying until she fell asleep sitting on the floor and leaning against the side of the bed. She woke up when someone suddenly opened the door in the morning.Lizzy came in carrying a tray of breakfast. She placed it on the table and stepped closer to Natalie.“Miss...” The girl looked at Natalie sadly. What happened last night really saddened her. She hadn’t expected Natalie and Dante’s relationship to suddenly fall apart.Natalie looked down and tried to stand up. She looked at her own horrible-looking reflection in the mirror. Her eyes were puffy and red. Her lips were pale, and her appearance was a mess, but she didn’t care.“I want to talk to Dante,” Natalie said hoarsely. She had been crying for so long that her voice was almost gone.Lizzy sighed. “Miss, he wants you to leave America immediately.”“Leave America?” Natalie was surprised to hear that.“Mr. Vittorio wants you to go to London. He doesn’t want to see you again or have anything to

In the middle of the night, Roberto was about to fall asleep when Marco suddenly knocked on the door and entered his room. “Sir, Alex wants to see you. He has urgent news,” Marco said seriously.Dante’s grandfather frowned. He finally sat up. “In this middle of the night?”Marco nodded. Roberto sighed. “Let him in,” he said.Before Marco left the room to call Alex, Alex had already barged in. His face looked pale and worried. “Sir, I have some bad news,” he reported.“What is it?”Alex swallowed. He looked down and said, “Something happened to Dante. He’s...”Roberto looked at him sharply. “What happened to my grandson?!”“Someone badly injured him. He’s... dying,” Alex replied quietly, without daring to look at the old man.“No way!” Roberto shook his head in disbelief. Suddenly, he held his heart and looked in pain. “What... has happened?”Alex raised his gaze and panicked at Roberto’s pale face. Had he lied too much to the old man to cause a relapse of his heart disease?“Sir, calm
Mr. Mafia's Wild Desire 113. A Plan
In the car, Alex waited uncertainly. Dante still hadn’t called him, so he was worried. Was everything okay?He held his cell phone uncertainly. After some consideration, he finally decided to call him. The phone rang for a long time, but Dante didn’t answer.“Ah, too long. I’d rather go up to the penthouse,” he muttered.Finally, Alex grabbed the gun from the dashboard and exited the car. He had to carry a weapon, just in case. After that, he hurried up to the penthouse.Arriving at the penthouse floor, Alex pressed the bell several times. Unfortunately, no one would open the door for him. He sighed and barged in with his access card.The first sight he saw surprised Alex. The penthouse was a mess. Rose petals and small crushed candles were scattered on the floor. Some glassware, such as vases, was also broken and scattered.Alex immediately went deeper and saw Dante sitting quietly at the dining table. Lizzy and Aland, who were standing in the corridor, immediately looked at Alex exp
