Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Raging Spree
“Just put it on my husband’s account. That too…and this…and that…” I instructed as I pointed my index finger randomly at various luxury bags there were on display.“Yes, I will do that. Would you like to see our newest shoe collection. It’s this way…” the sales assistant quickly recommended.She must have thought that luck was truly on her side after I turned up at the store. Of course, she recognized me as my sister immediately. I bet that in her entire career, she had never met a customer that bought so many things and without a thought.“There’s no need. Just get me all the designs that you have,” I replied casually.“Of course. May I know your size?” she asked before showing me a polite smile.“Just get me on in every size,” I replied.“Oh…right. Of course, I will do that. Thank you very much,” she replied with widened eyes.The objective of this shopping spree wasn’t so that I could buy things that I liked and wanted but it was a way for me to relieve stress. On top of that, sinc

“I think you’re just overreacting,” I said as I waved off his concerns.“Also, it is inaccurate to say that you don’t matter,” Zain said so softly that I almost didn’t catch his words at first.“What do you mean by that?” I asked as I tore my gaze away from the sparkling diamond necklace that I had been eyeing.“You do matter…” Zain replied in short.The way he said those words to me sounded sincere enough to make my chest feel tight. I wanted to believe him but that didn’t mean that I completely understood what he meant. I cocked my head slightly to the side as I pondered and flipped around his words in my mind. The movement of the boutique door opening caught my attention as my eyes focused on the person that had just walked in. For a moment, I couldn’t quite believe what I was seeing.“You’re finally here…” Zain said without hiding his relief.It felt like he was truly glad to be somewhat relieved of his duties. I was too stunned to react to Zain’s words as my eyes felt glued to th

I wanted to tell him that I didn’t want a diamond ring, but something told me that Bradon wouldn’t put this matter to rest unless I decided on a ring.“I’m not sure. Anthony, can you help me pick out a few that you like?” I asked as I forced a smile that I hoped looked natural.Since I couldn’t come up with any other reason why he was doing something like this, I figured that he must be playing the role of Anthony by acting as the perfect husband in front of everyone. He must have regretted that slip up that happened at the office. Perhaps, he didn’t intend for his lover to turn up like that. It would make Anthony look bad and it would cause a lot of trouble if news about that woman’s sudden appearance were to spread. I nodded my head slightly as the dots began to connect. In order to cover up for that, Bradon needed to create evidence that Anthony was still the perfect loving husband and that our relationship was smooth like butter. That must be it because I couldn’t think of any oth

I felt lost in a trance as I wondered what it was that I was feeling and what was making me feel that way. The slightly cold hardness of the ring sliding along the length of my ring finger brought me back to my senses. Bradon was staring right at my face as he seemed to observe my reactions. His eyes met and held mine and I felt trapped in their beautiful blue depths. At that moment, everything surrounding us seemed to fade away and it felt like we were the only ones in our private little world. I felt the ring at the base of my finger. As if it had been custom made for me, the ring felt like a very perfect fit.“I think it looks amazingly perfect on you, Lady Diana,” the store manager spoke up brightly.I could almost hear the shattering sound of glass as the spell that held us together seemed to have been broken. My eyes blinked rapidly as I tore my gaze away from Bradon’s so that I could focus on the ring sitting on the base of my ring finger. The large diamond stood out against my

I wanted to wring his neck but all I could do was smile and duck my head slightly like I was consumed with shyness. The manager smiled and I could tell that she adored our display of affection for each other a little too much and then she offered to put the ring in boxes for us.“We’ll just wear it. You can pack the boxes…” Bradon told her easily.“Right away. About the payment, shall I put it on your account?” she politely inquired.Since she thought that Bradon was Anthony, it did make sense that she would offer to charge it to his account just like what was done for regular VVIP customers.“You don’t need to put it on any account. Just use this card,” Bradon replied as he handed her a card.My eyes widened slightly when I realized that he was going to pay for it with his own money instead of Anthony’s. Perhaps it was because the purchase was high in value, and he didn’t want to bother his brother with the spontaneous purchasing decision that he had made.“Shall we?” Bradon said inv

‘He did tell me often enough that you two were only getting married in name only…’He was just with her, so how dare he kiss me like that?I wasn’t sure if I was more furious, disgusted, or shocked. My body trembled as I began breathing faster. Anger and dark thoughts swirled in my head as we locked eyes. It wasn’t as if I lacked experience with men or that I could claim to be a pure un-soiled angel of some sort and it wasn’t like I thought that he was an inexperienced virgin either. In fact, I had realized from the very first night that we spent together that he was beyond well-versed in how to pleasure the bodies of women. That could only mean that he has had many lovers before and there were no reasons for me to believe that he would have lovers right now.I should have known.To be more accurate, I knew all along but had probably let that fact slip from my mind for my own convenience. I told myself that I didn’t care about his past, his present, and also his future because it all

He leaned all over me as my entire body stiffened in panic. Bradon gave me a cold glare before he reached for the seatbelt and fastened it. I immediately reached to unfasten the seatbelt again and that was when the car suddenly charged forward. My mouth dropped open when I realized that he had just sped past the red light.Did he just…run a red light?“I just ran a red light to keep you in your seat. You don’t have to look so shocked; I haven’t killed anyone…yet…” he said without looking at me.The night lights lining the side of the street whizzed by so fast that my body stiffened from a mix of fear and also shock. I didn’t think that Bradon would get that angry with my attempt to get out of the car. If anything, I was quite certain that he didn’t want me to be there with him either. It must have felt unpleasant and bothersome for him to have to spend time with me. I thought that I might be saving us both the trouble if I simply just got out of the car. Maybe just like Zain, Bradon s

I had no idea what exactly he was referring to and that was because I had probably done countless things within the past few hours that he would disapprove of. I wasn’t sure if he was referring to the fact that I turned up to see him without permission, or the fact that I went out and spent quite a lot of money on my foolish shopping errand, or because I yelled at him about his disgusting lover. Then there was that matter of me trying to get out of the car while we were stuck at a red light on the road.“Do what?” I replied blankly.Bradon’s blue eyes narrowed slightly at me, and I wanted to bite on my tongue for saying what I had just said. I had no idea why I said something like that, but it felt like whatever I said to him lately would end up rubbing him the wrong way. Bradon’s cold gaze fell on my face, but he didn’t say anything. I heard the car door opening and then Bradon got out of the car.“He didn’t have to get so mad…” I muttered to myself.Suddenly, the door on my side was

Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Our Debut
"You should go to bed," Bradon told me the moment that we stepped into the mansion. I knew that his suggestion was spot on because sleep was exactly what I needed to deal with what was to come. The media and everyone had undoubtedly gone wild as they both communicated and speculated on what was the truth and what were twisted lies from all the events that happened in the past that I shared with my sister.I switched off my phone when it wouldn't stop vibrating, without bothering to read the caller ID on the screen. I could already guess who would be calling me and also exactly what they had to say."It feels like my head is ready to explode," I confessed before smiling weakly at Bradon."Which is precisely why you should stop thinking or caring about anyone else and just get some shut-eye," Bradon said as he peeled away the mobile phone that I held in my hand. I let him do so without putting up any resistance because all I wanted to do was crawl into bed and hide under the sheets wit
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Diana and Dahlia
"My name is Diana, which can only mean that the Diana standing over there is, in fact, my twin sister, Dahlia. In fact, for the past months, I wasn't present, and the Diana that you knew had always been my sister acting out in my place," Diana explained as if it was something to be proud of.The crowd went wild, but I decided to focus my attention on the two figures that seemed so intent on ruining my life along with my sister’s. Our father had officially become our enemy, and at that moment, he looked like he might have started to regret pushing both of us over the edge. Mr. Malton, who, after all this time, clearly never regretted his actions and never realized that he should have been man enough to take responsibility. I was certain that even now, he was willing to destroy our reputation and our future—all for the sake of the money undoubtedly promised to him by our father. Desperate times truly call for desperate measures; that applied to our father but also to us as well.I could
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King The Reveal
I found myself praying silently that Desmond could bring everything under control, but my prayers probably fell on deafened ears. Instead of Desmond stepping up to the podium, it was my sister who approached it instead."What is she doing?" I asked in a shaky whisper as I felt myself breaking into a cold sweat. It felt like my eyes were about to pop out of their sockets as I continued staring in bewilderment and disbelief at my sister, who stood with a beautiful smile behind the podium, the microphone very close to her lips. I turned to stare at Desmond and managed to lock gazes with him. I could tell that he was staring right back at me, and the way he nodded his head reassuringly was supposed to bring me some relief and keep me at ease, but it only made me even more nervous.I could tell that everyone in the crowd was staring daggers at my sister, even from where I was standing. It wasn't surprising, considering that everyone thought Diana was me. It felt like tight knots had formed
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Living Nightmare
Back to the present"Homewrecker! Homewrecker! Homewrecker!"The violent chanting continued and began seeping into my consciousness, dragging me back to the present. Disaster seemed to be staring me right in the face."Leya..." Bradon whispered my name right beside my ear.His presence close to me reminded me that, unlike that day back then, I wasn't alone. I had Bradon by my side, and, on top of that, everyone was here with me: Desmond and my sister. I suddenly felt a surge of confidence that made me believe that there could be a way out, one that would save us all from this dire situation my father had plotted against us.I had to admit that after leaving the country, I hadn't spared much thought for what would unfold after my departure. I never took care to follow up on any news-not that they would be made public-related to Mr. Malton's wife and child. I had no idea what happened to him or his family after that incident. My parents completely cut me off, and there was frankly no on
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Lost Control
"What have you done? Have you completely lost your mind?" my father yelled at me immediately when our family was gathered in private. His face was completely red with anger as his voice echoed in the room. My mother looked like she was on the verge of tears, and I could tell that she was more worried about our family rather than her own daughter. "News of your ridiculous and scandalous behavior is now all over the place!" my father continued yelling. As if to drive his message home, his mobile phone began ringing non-stop. One glance at the name displayed on the screen drove my father to the brink before he switched off the phone and threw it onto the floor. My mother let out a scream at my father's sudden violent outburst before sinking down onto the sofa as if she had lost all strength in her body.I took the opportunity to slowly take a seat, and Diana was by my side in an instant. I knew that the best way to brave out this storm was to keep quiet and not let his words get to me.
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Crash and Burn
Not having the experience of being a criminal before, I wasn't quite sure how one was supposed to be treated, but the experiences that I went through might have indeed been close. I thought that I was used to disappointing my parents and the people around me. I thought that I was used to seeing the look of disappointment and disapproval in their eyes before it became a look of resentment and then complete apathy and lack of care. I thought that I could deal with everything without getting my emotions involved because, after all, I was supposed to be used to this kind of treatment, and that was why I was caught utterly off guard by how quickly things escalated.Thinking back on it, my memories were quite blurry. Either it was simply too much for me to take in at the time for my brain to form any clear memories, or it was simply too shocking and too harsh for me to take. Either way, everything seemed to fly by me and over my head.Although every single teacher and the principal tried to
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Unstoppable
Just thinking that the fool right in front of me dared to say he was in love with my sister, while he couldn't even tell the two of us apart, made my blood boil. It took a lot of effort to repress the urge to reach out and strangle his neck right then and there. I reminded myself that I had a part to play and quite an audience to impress."No... this can't be..." Mr. Malton whispered hoarsely from a distance, stepping even further away from me. I stood up from the table, grabbed his arm, and pulled him back to my side as I glared up into his face."It's actually quite simple to fool you. All I had to do was dress up in my sister's clothes whenever I met you and talk a little more sweetly..." I said, letting out a hysterical laugh. I could still feel everyone's eyes on us as the attention in the room escalated even more than before.Mr. Malton was speechless as he tried to pull his arm away from my grip, but I wasn't about to let him get away so easily."Well, now I guess the secret is
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King The Truth We Chose
I had no idea how Diana managed to keep the girls silent up until that point so that the news wouldn't spread; however, I knew that it wouldn't be too long before everyone in school knew about this illicit affair. We would be extremely lucky if this news did not spread beyond the school walls. Despite the gravity of the situation, Mr. Malton was already ready to make his retreat."What if they don't believe us? I feel so scared. I don't want to be alone, and I don't want you to leave me," I said pleadingly just to see his reaction."You know that I would never do that. It would just be temporary until everything blows over. I promise that I will never leave you. How could I possibly leave you? I love you so much," he declared his love for me boldly.The more dramatic things became, the more I felt that his act of adoration was completely fake. No matter how many times he claimed to be in love with my sister, it seemed like he couldn't even tell us apart. I wondered what kind of face h
Substitute Wife for the Mafia King Irresponsible Lover
"Leya, you need to help me find a way out of this. Diana simply cannot make this kind of mistake," my sister told me slowly and clearly as she stared directly into my eyes."You're right. You can't afford to make these kinds of mistakes," I agreed solemnly."No one else must find out about this. We have to do something before word gets out because word is definitely going to get out,," my sister stated calmly, and I could tell that she had returned to her calm and collected self."Can't we tell them that they simply misunderstood and that it's not true?" I asked, daring to harbor a little bit of hope."They probably won't believe what we tell them, but they might believe what we show them," Diana replied, and I could tell her mind was made up.Without using any more words, it seemed like an understanding had formed between us, and once again, it felt like it was us against the entire world....**The Next Day**As I pushed open the back door to the building that was supposed to be off
