Lenka's POV

It was hard to hear anything clearly because I had my hands pressed against both of my ears.

Fear of death was embracing me.

All this time, I felt like I wasn't a bad person. But now, accepting a situation like this, even though I know that evil will always exist in the world... that's why, when I found out Michael's true identity... I was disappointed.

He was a figure in the most dangerous position...

Now, I’m trying to survive this foolish act. That was the sound of a gunshot, but I didn’t feel any pain... I don’t know... I’m not so sure.

It was too shocking.

Staying still with my eyes closed might end very badly, but someone stopped the spiral of my fear.

"Miss, are you okay?"

I could faintly hear the voice of a man. I loosened my grip on my ears slightly, but I remained hunched over.

Oh, maybe they were just playing a game. I often heard from my father about the profiles of criminals. So, this could be what’s happening.

My hands gripped my ears tighter, refusing to rai

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 10

    Michael's POVI threw the bottle across the room, nearly hitting the useless fools who couldn’t complete their task as I had expected.My mood was foul, and a deep sense of displeasure surrounded me.Leaning forward slightly, no longer resting against my chair, I glared at them, who dared not move from their positions—as they should. Their bodies and clothes were stained with blood and traces of whiskey.I was in no mood to tolerate trivial matters today."Useless," I spat, my gaze cold. "Have you still not found that woman?"The task should have been simple—tracking down someone who had fled. All they had to do was locate a person who had lived in this house for over two years. Yet, even after all this time, they had failed to bring me any results.It had been a week.My patience had run dry. I was sick of their incompetence—they should have completed this task much faster.Their target was nothing more than a mute woman. A helpless woman with no acquaintances, no connections to anyo

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 11

    Michael's POVThe woman stepped forward, completely unfazed by what I had just said. As always, Ava acted as if she was extraordinary and could do whatever she wanted.“Michael, you can’t do this. Remember, we have an agreement about our marriage,” she said.She placed her hands on the table, leveling her gaze with mine. “You know that the wedding has to happen soon—for the sake of our precious organization.”“I know.” My eyebrow arched. She talked too much.“You don’t need to remind me of something we’ve already discussed. If there’s anything else, you can talk to Diego about it.”The marriage between us would happen, but it wasn’t something I was in a rush to do. There were too many things to take care of—like overgrown shrubs that needed trimming. Even she, as his daughter, should understand that.Regardless, our marriage would serve as a solid foundation to strengthen the alliance between my mafia group and hers. And they were the ones who proposed it first.Sensing an advantage,

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 12

    Lenka's POV“Come here. Let’s eat, Lenka,” the man invited.I gazed at Jonas, the man who had saved me, before slowly making my way toward him as he waited.Two main dishes were already set on the dining table—one for him and one for me—along with the meal he had prepared. It looked delicious, though I still couldn't fully catch its aroma.I wasn’t completely recovered yet, but during my time here, I finally remembered who Jonas was.I realized that I had seen him several times with my father. They were colleagues, partners in routine patrols and handling certain cases.Even though my father had only told me about him once, and we had only exchanged brief greetings whenever he dropped my father off, I still remembered his face well.He was still kind and warmhearted.I fell silent as another thought suddenly crossed my mind—about him and someone else who had cared deeply for me before they were gone.Maybe, just maybe… my father had sent him from above. My father was helping me throug

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 13

    Lenka's POVI pulled my legs close together, fidgeting with my fingers as a restless feeling stirred within me.My gaze drifted to the sky, searching for something new to focus on. The clouds were thickening and darkening—it was getting cloudy. But I also knew that the day was growing late.I had seen the sun begin its descent from its peak, casting fleeting shadows over the small garden at Jonas’ house. For a moment, the place was dim, until the automatic garden lights flickered on.I looked around once more. There were no other houses nearby, just a vast empty yard overgrown with wild grass and untended weeds.The only exception was Jonas’ garden, a small, well-kept space with lush trees along parts of the fence.From time to time, a gardener would come to tend to the plants and trees whenever Jonas was too busy to do it himself. But aside from that, no one else ever came here.I felt a little lonely, but this was far better than the overwhelming presence of people I didn’t want to

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 14

    Lenka's POVI lowered my head, clasping both hands tightly as my breath grew heavy and constricted.Am I not meant to be happy?Must I always suffer?Just a few days ago, I was finally able to live properly—going about my days in peace, doing things that brought me comfort and joy without being watched or listening to the cruel words of everyone in Michael’s household.I was free.But now, even breathing felt like a struggle. It was as if the air had been stolen from my lungs, and my blood had turned to ice.I couldn’t accept the reality that my own body had already confirmed. It was as if sorrow and suffering had been waiting for me, ready to pull me back into their grasp.I clenched my hands into fists.What should I do?My trembling fingers touched my still-flat stomach—no visible difference, nothing to indicate what I now knew to be true.Something alive was growing inside me.I was pregnant.Carrying the child of Michael—the man who didn’t even love me, the man who only wanted my

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 15

    Lenka's POVJonas looked shocked by what I had just told him, then pulled me into a hug."Congratulations, Lenka. You're going to be a mother."I froze at his words, confirming a truth I hadn't even had the chance to consider amidst the storm of dark thoughts clouding my mind.A smile slowly bloomed on my lips."You'll be an amazing mother." His words struck me motionless once again. "That child is yours. A child you will raise with your own hands."Tears welled up again as I listened to him.Yes. He was right. This child was mine—not Michael’s. I was this baby’s mother, the only blood relative they had.They would be the only family I had in my life. Someone who would truly love me.I pressed my lips together, remembering all the terrible thoughts I had allowed to fill my mind. How could I have ever thought of not wanting this child? How could I have considered discarding an innocent life, one that had done nothing wrong?My life had never been easy since meeting the man who was both

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 16

    Michael's POVMy hand clenched the document tightly, leaving deep creases where I gripped it—but I didn’t care.A surge of overwhelming emotions surrounded me, making my hands tremble and my jaw clench shut.I despised what I had just learned."Is this report accurate, Diego?" My voice was subdued, my gaze fixed on him.The man met my eyes. "Yes, we’ve gathered the information you requested in detail. This is what happened, sir."I shifted my gaze back to the report, now completely crumpled in my grip. My eyes landed on a particular name.I knew he wouldn’t just linger around without doing anything, but I never expected his actions to be this outrageous.He had touched something that wasn’t his.Mine."Cut all ties with the Wentz Family and The Viper immediately, Diego. Our group has no need for traitors as business partners."Diego hesitated, uncertainty evident in his expression."Forgive me, sir. Are you sure about this? Our business with them is already running and generating sign

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 17

    Ava's POVI slammed everything within my reach—whatever it was—against any surface available.My emotions were overflowing.Never in my life had I felt so humiliated, and the worst part? It was because of some nobody of a woman.And that man.“Damn it!”I didn’t care how many porcelain pieces shattered or how many cushions burst open, their stuffing spilling out after I crushed them too hard.I just kept cursing, screaming, and throwing anything that could help vent my raging emotions.Several servants stood frozen, watching me from a distance. They didn’t dare approach, yet they couldn’t simply walk away either. I glared at them sharply."What are you looking at, huh?" I stepped closer.My hand shot out, grabbing a handful of one maid’s long hair, and I slapped her across the face. She cried out, but I didn’t care.Her once flawless, glowing cheek turned red, then darkened into an ugly bruise.I kept going, striking her again and again until I was satisfied. Then I moved on to anothe

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 68

    Lenka's POVI had just finished my bath and stepped out of my room to check on my son. But when I arrived in his room, Felix was nowhere to be seen."Felix?"I called out, searching for my son, who did not respond.He should have said something if he had heard my voice, but there was only silence. My heart pounded faster, and my palms began to sweat.I shook my head, trying to push away the overwhelming anxiety creeping in. This was the first time I had experienced something like this, and with the added stress of having been confined to the house for so long, it only made things worse."No, it’s fine. Everything is fine."I took a deep breath and began searching through every room in the house, calling his name and even checking the rooms he rarely visited.Still, there was no sign of him. I bit my lip, my eyes darting around as I tried to think. "Where are you, Felix?"There was only one place left to check. Outside.I hurried out and immediately spotted him.Felix was standing near

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 67

    Lenka’s POVI was playing with Felix in the room.Several books were stacked up—some we had already finished reading together, while others remained untouched. Scattered around were toy cars and a chessboard we had played with earlier.My son’s face grew gloomier by the minute.It seemed like he couldn’t hold back any longer and finally decided to speak his mind. His gaze no longer sparkled with excitement as it usually did.“Mom, why have we been staying at home all the time lately? I’m so bored. I want to go outside.”I looked at him with a small smile, knowing this moment would come sooner or later.No matter how much I tried to keep him occupied, there was only so much patience a child could have when it came to playing indoors. He needed space, an open area—not just the confines of our home.Gently stroking his head, I tried to soothe him. “Mom just wants to rest for a while. And the weather outside isn’t good, so it wouldn’t be a good idea to spend time outdoors, Felix.”My son

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 66

    Lenka’s POVI remained silent on the way home, still unable to believe that I had spent the entire day playing with Felix and that man.My son had enjoyed it the most, but I had no real complaints—so long as Michael kept his mouth shut and didn’t speak to me.For the most part, he focused on my son, taking him to multiple rides, while I spent most of my time waiting in one spot. I used exhaustion as an excuse, not wanting to cause any trouble while Felix was having fun.He was the one who drove us home.I wanted to refuse, but my son was too exhausted to wait for a ride, and I didn’t have enough money to book a taxi.Within minutes, we arrived in front of our house.Felix immediately stepped out after politely thanking him, and Michael accepted it well—but he didn’t extend the same courtesy to me."Wait."I was just about to step out, without a word, when he stopped me. I glanced at his hand, making him quickly withdraw it before turning his gaze toward me.He raised an eyebrow. "Aren

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 65

    Lenka’s POVI walked out of the Ferris wheel and immediately exhaled a long breath.That was the most thrilling experience of my life, which, in reality, was not dangerous, but it made it impossible for me to feel at ease.I tried to act normal, but the fear still wouldn’t go away.In the end, I gave up and continued holding onto Michael, who was accompanying my son to enjoy the Ferris wheel’s atmosphere, while I kept my eyes on the floor.Felix followed me down after I got off, reaching for my still-trembling hand and holding it. His gaze was directed at me, looking curious."Are you scared of the Ferris wheel, Mom? I shouldn't have asked you to ride with me. Your face looks pale."I closed my eyes for a moment before looking back at him and shaking my head. I didn’t want to make my son regret asking me to join him on this ride.A faint smile appeared on my face."I'm fine. It’s just that I didn’t have breakfast this morning."His eyes widened. "Really? But you always tell me not to

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 64

    Lenka's POVIf it weren't for Felix's request, Lenka wouldn't have wanted to fulfill her child's wish. The three of them walking together seemed like a small family.Felix had invited both her and Michael to a festival in the city.He was in between us, holding each of our hands and swinging them joyfully. He was truly happy.I couldn't bring myself to protest again when my child invited that man once more."Mom, Mr. Michael saved us. I want to take him out so he doesn't just stay at the café all the time. So, please don't refuse."From there, my child truly knew how to stun me. Even with an excuse he had used many times, which was true.It was me who couldn't be honest about the real reason behind my resistance when facing Michael.I just stayed silent, not saying much during our journey until we finally arrived. My mind was wandering, and I didn't want to keep looking at that man.Still, it was Michael who broke my thoughts."Would you like some gelato?"I looked at him and then at

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 63

    Lenka’s POV“Won’t you be serving that cake, miss?”I snapped out of my thoughts, blinking and then looking toward Tina, then at my hand holding the tongs.I was supposed to have served the cake to the guest my staff was attending to, but there was no longer a line at the cashier, and he was just staring at me, waiting for me to serve his order.It seemed like I had been standing still, doing nothing, for quite some time.I swallowed, took the cake, arranged it on a plate, and handed it to Tina. “Sorry, I almost forgot about it.”“It’s alright, miss.”She quickly took the cake to a guest, while I stood there in silence.My conversation with the man still lingered in my mind. I felt frustrated, but I also couldn’t fully blame him for taking the opportunity.He was the type of person he was—a mafia boss and businessman who knew exactly what steps to take. I thought that he probably applied the same approach when dealing with me.I wasn’t as skilled as he was, and the only business I had

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 62

    Lenka's POVI sat across from Michael, still struggling to process his earlier words. I couldn't believe it.I already knew that he never ended up marrying Ava—he had confirmed it himself. But beyond that, I had never sought out any more information about them.Their relationship had never seemed anything but harmonious in my eyes.Well, that woman always exaggerated their affection, flaunting it in a way that only deepened my pain, while he never rejected her advances.Years ago, I had assumed they would end up together and that their two groups would unite. But reality was far different from what I had imagined.Instead, she caused trouble and ran away. She never became the partner Michael had always claimed to want and cherish.What really happened between them?I looked at him, forcing myself to stay composed. "Didn’t you have a good relationship with that woman?"He met my gaze, raising an eyebrow."Did it seem that way? From the very beginning, she was the one who wanted our rel

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 61

    Lenka’s POVLately, I’ve realized that I’ve been paying more attention to Michael than before.That man always seems to be within my line of sight, making me want to look at him even without meaning to. His captivating face, his presence that draws the attention of other women, and the aura he gives off just by sitting there.The usually peaceful and calm atmosphere of the coffee shop feels slightly different with him around. As if my café has somehow become an inseparable part of him.A strange feeling wraps around me.I try to hold myself back, not wanting to show him that I keep watching him—especially when I saw that woman approach him.I also notice that he has been looking at me more often, but I fight the urge to meet his gaze.When the woman finally leaves, he leans back in his chair, looking relaxed. Before I know it, I’m already standing in front of him, staring at him in silence.His eyes widen as he looks at me.I see a glimmer in his gaze as he calls my name.“Lenka?”I h

  • My Dear Mafia Boss' Remorse   Chapter 60

    Michael's POVI was already seated in my usual spot—at Lenka’s coffee shop, with a cup of coffee and a croissant.Nothing was too different, except for a certain feeling that made this visit feel more special than the previous days.After my conversation with that woman, it felt like we had reached an unspoken agreement, as if our hearts had aligned. I truly believed this was the beginning of something good.No arguments. No misunderstandings like before.Maybe we weren’t completely close yet, but I could sense that she was starting to open up to me.She no longer looked at me with cold or sharp eyes. Instead, she was calmer, able to have a conversation with me like any ordinary person would.We weren’t a couple—not yet—but for me, this was already more than enough.I took a sip of my coffee, savoring its distinctive aroma and the bittersweet taste that lingered on my tongue.The croissant smelled even more fragrant, even though it was no longer warm. It was the perfect companion to a
