The Mafia's Frozen Bride 44|Most Valuable Asset
[Sinclair]I held back my anger vigorously at the redness on Darcy's face. Someone had sown something dangerous into her mask or makeup. That woman must feel so uncomfortable and helpless. She was so frightened to see her reflection in the mirror.The doctor confirmed my guess. Her face's condition wasn't due to a food or drink allergy but the use of unsuitable makeup on her face. From the severity of her skin, harmful substances were mixed with her compact or moisturizer.I left Darcy while the doctor and nurse gave her first aid. I took out my phone from the inside pocket of my jacket. “Ask all the security guards to check Darcy's bag. Either her compact or moisturizer is mixed with a dangerous substance.“Then, have them check the dancers‘ and instructors’ bags and lockers. The culprit must be one of them. Only they know where Darcy's bags and lockers are. Do it neatly. I don't want the guests to see any commotion,” I ordered.“What happened?” Enzo asked.“Darcy's whole face is red

I had finished breakfast when Darcy came out of the bedroom. She wore all black. Looking at her neat appearance, she was going somewhere. That woman was stubborn. She shouldn't have gone anywhere until her face recovered.However, I allowed her. Although she was mine, I had no right to control her life. Darcy owned her life. No human being liked to be restrained, not even me. She had today off and might have plans that couldn't be postponed.“I've finished eating. Why haven't you told me who ruined my face? Hurry up and tell me,” Darcy urged.I intentionally waited for her to finish eating, so my report wouldn't make her lose her appetite. “Take your medicine. Then, I'll tell you everything.”“You've been—” she protested.“ I mean it this time,” I said.Darcy grumbled as she took the medicine out of the bag. She took one tablet and swallowed it. “Tell me quickly,” she said.“There's a dangerous substance in your powder. The perpetrator mixed it in while you were dressing up, getting r

[Darcy]A baby's cry greeted my return from work. I rushed to the nursery and was touched to see the tear-stained baby. I went over and hugged him. Briefly, he stopped crying and sobbed.“Do you miss Mommy? You know Mommy is coming home, but greet her with your loud voice. Why aren't you laughing? Aren't you tired of crying like this?” I asked.The six-month-old baby just rested his head on my chest. He sobbed because he had cried too much. I went back to work when he turned three months old. That was the only time I could give him my full attention.Keane was like any other baby when his mother was away, but he had a new habit. After he remembered the time I returned home, my son cried. My little one knew when I was coming home. If I were late, he would keep crying until I got home.“You can't go on like this, dear. I have meetings after working hours. I can't come home at the same time every day,” I cooed.My phone in the bag rang. The babysitter took my baby so that I could answer

Keane's favorite stuffed animal wasn't on his bed. Some of his favorite toys weren't on top of the dresser either. I checked his drawers. It was empty. No. Who took my son? Could the babysitter have kidnapped my baby?I rushed out of the room and checked the nanny's room. Her wardrobe was empty. The suitcase she used to carry her belongings wasn't beside the closet either. Oh, my God. It couldn't be happening.I dialed the woman's phone. Hearing the dial tone, I waited impatiently. But until the ringing ended, the woman didn't answer. Olivia didn't pick up after two calls. Shit! Where did the nanny take my son?My phone vibrated as I descended the stairs. Reading the name, I answered immediately. “What did you do to Keane? Where is he!?”“I'm at Channing's house, ma'am. Keane is with me,” she answered.“Oh.” I was stunned. That was right. Maybe Mom asked her to bring my son there because I stayed in Cullen's room. “I'm coming.”I felt relieved knowing my son was in safe hands. Thankfu

My heart was pounding, suffocating my chest. I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. My hands were tingling because I was gripping the steering wheel tightly. I breathed and hurried to get my phone from my bag.“If I were you, I wouldn't do that,” a man said through the front door glass beside me. His friends stood in front of my car, pointing their guns at me. “Don't try to call the police, and get out of your car carefully.”I swallowed hard. Who among my enemies had sent those people? Were they going to kill me or hurt me slowly? My whole body was trembling. Catching my breath couldn't help me calm down.“Get out!” The man beside me knocked loudly on the door glass.I unlocked the car and opened it. The man pulled my body impatiently. "What the hell is this!? Who are you!?" I scolded, trying to get up the courage.“You don't need to know who we are.” The man glanced at the companion at his side. The second man placed a piece of paper before me. “Pay your debt.”I scoffed.

Remembering my purpose for entering, I ignored the strangeness and approached the safe box. I entered the code and opened it. There should have been velvet boxes of various sizes and colors inside. What appeared before me was an empty safe.My knees buckled, but I braced myself. I took a deep breath and let it out slowly. My hands trembled as I fingered the drawers. My vision wasn't wrong. The safe was empty. There wasn't a single jewelry box left.“No... It can't be happening...” I shook my head. “This can't be happening to me...” I looked around me.I understood what had changed. The limited edition of clothes, bags, shoes, and so on that were supposed to be in the room were gone. They only left clothes that were not as expensive as the limited collections.“Please...” I still had hope.I dragged my feet to another room, Cullen's closet. After opening the door, the lights turned on automatically. I took in my surroundings with a broken heart. It was empty. They left nothing.“No...”

Misfortunes happened in my life and ruined my reputation, but I never felt that humiliated. I had money. The savings account was mine, in my name. How could the bank let someone else control it without my permission?My best friend smiled as we parted, but I knew she was laughing at me and my stupidity. My face heated up, unable to hide my humiliation. I was getting into my car when friend after friend called me to cancel our appointment.I chuckled. It wasn't a coincidence. Did Frida tell them I asked to meet to discuss work? My laughter grew uncontrollably loud. Then the laughter turned into sobs, choking my chest. Gosh. Betrayal was painful.I headed for the bank and strolled inside, where the priority customer service was. A woman greeted me, but I passed her by. I knocked and entered the room.“I want to withdraw all my money from this bank,” I ordered the woman inside.“Mrs. Cullen Channing, good afternoon. Please have a seat.” She stood up and gestured toward the chair across fr

[Sinclair]I was content to watch that wicked woman lose one thing after another that she had. She should know what it was like to be at the lowest point in her life. That stupid man helped her last year, but not this year.Her in-laws were ruthless. She spared nothing, even taking away Darcy's rights. Her efforts to protect her property from her daughter-in-law's deviousness were commendable. Anyone would have done the same if they were in her shoes.However, I didn't expect that heartless woman to give up so easily. I wouldn't have believed my men's report if I hadn't seen it myself. The evil woman shifted a wooden box and climbed onto it. She couldn't end her life!My men held her hand, preventing her from going over the guardrail. They pulled her away from the place and brought her to me. The woman struggled, but the two men outmatched her.“What the hell! Let me go!” the woman screeched in annoyance.“I didn't expect someone like you to dare to die.” I glanced at the fence.Darcy

The Mafia's Frozen Bride 43|Ugly Face
I scanned my surroundings, but the object I was looking for was nowhere to be seen. I wanted to check my face's condition. I could die if I lost my flawless face. Oh, God. I didn't want to be ugly like Heather.My heart pounded, deafening my ears. I held back the tears from falling from my eyes. I didn't want to cry in front of others, let alone before Sinclair. The itching and burning became more intense, making me worried.“You don't need a mirror. You should clean your face now.” Sinclair took my hand. He led me out of his office.I could see my face's condition in the mirror in the restroom. My whole body trembled at my reflection. My forehead, cheeks, nose, chin, and jaw were reddish, so scary. I clenched my fists against the pain.What happened? I ate the food that Sinclair bought and that the club cafeteria provided. I used the makeup that I owned, not someone else's. Nothing out of the ordinary that I did before performing.Oh. Could it be? I glanced at the mask I was holding.
The Mafia's Frozen Bride 42|Emotional Attachment
[Darcy]Sinclair hated me. His eyes were blazing that night as he grasped my cheeks tightly. My whole body trembled, but I dared to face him. I didn't know what I had done to him in the past.I didn't remember being close to or knowing a man named Sinclair Wyndham. Looking at his face didn't remind me of anyone. He might have misunderstood me like Taylor. My cousin said I had many exes and slept with many young men.That accusation was weird. Did everyone judge me like that? What was wrong with having a boyfriend? I ended the relationship before getting into a new one with another. I didn't sleep with all my exes because only a few were genuinely affectionate towards me.“You guys are so wild. I heard you banging at dawn. Was that not enough for you to do it again in the morning?” Taylor teased. She leaned against the kitchen counter, enjoying a glass of orange juice.“Shut up, Tay,” I snapped.“Sinclair talked about marriage. He's serious about you. Your relationship was brief. Culle
The Mafia's Frozen Bride 41|My Woman
The woman locked the door and then looked at me. She unbuttoned her blouse as she approached me. Her gaze, hip movements, and smile tempted me, but I felt nothing. She stopped before me after dropping her shirt on the floor.I didn't expect her to act that boldly. That instructor repeatedly showed her interest in me, but I ignored it. I thought she would understand that I only thought of her as an employee, nothing more. It turned out she didn't stop trying.“We've been together for a long time.” She glanced at my lips, then looked into my eyes to see my reaction. “I can make you happy, Sin. I know what you want.”I let her caress my cheeks and chest. It was as I expected. I didn't feel anything. Seeing her ample bosom and feeling it pressed against my chest had no effect whatsoever. Felicia stood on tiptoe, intending to kiss my lips.“If it's true, you should know I don't want you,” I said before her lips touched mine. “This is the last warning. You do it again, I'll fire you.”Her e
The Mafia's Frozen Bride 40|The Curious Cousin
I ignored her and walked to the elevator. She was just an employee at my club, not my boss or lover. I had no obligation to answer her questions. The woman followed me. She strode beside me without saying a word.Neil stood between Felicia and me when we were in the elevator. I didn't understand why she followed us but allowed it. I turned left when we arrived at the destination floor. I stopped as Felicia stood before me.“So, the news is true. You and Darcy have a special relationship?” she asked with hurt eyes. “Sin, is that why you hired her at the club?”“Remember your position. You're just obeying my orders.” I walked past her after Neil stood nearby, blocking her from stopping me.“I refuse to train your girlfriend. Choose someone else to teach her,” she threatened.“I'll wait for your resignation letter today,” I said without stopping my steps.I entered Darcy's unit. A woman was drinking near the kitchen counter. She choked when she saw me, but I ignored her. I strolled to the

[Sinclair]I leaned back on the chair and closed my eyes. What had just happened was in my plan. One person proved that Joaquin's group wasn't as strong as people claimed. They had a weakness that one person managed to penetrate.Someone knocked on my door and opened it. “What are you doing?” Enzo protested. “Wesley is one of our best people. Why did you fire him?”“He confessed to everything he did,” I answered.“Joaquin is everyone's enemy. You should side with our people, not the enemy, Sin. You'll lose a lot of trust if you fire him,” he continued.“Do you doubt my decision?” I challenged him.Enzo stared at me thoughtfully. He furrowed his brow. “You always carefully think things through, but that doesn't mean you won't make mistakes.”“The time is near. I want to clean up from now on. My son will be home, and I'm sure many will seize the opportunity to hurt me through him,” I explained. “I need to start by cleaning up after my confidant.”“But, Sin. Wesley managed to defeat Joaq

“Thank you.” Cullen kissed my cheek after I laid our son in his crib. “I never thought I'd be a father.”“You only have flaws, Cullen. With the advancement of medical technology, what was once impossible has become possible,” I consoled.Cullen smiled. He took my hand and led me out of our son's bedroom. I giggled as he pecked my lips before turning off the lights and closing the door. We walked to the other room, our bedroom.My husband was the only man in the world who was patient with me. He chased after me, who wasn't interested in him at all. All the promises he made, he kept. It made me fall in love with him.The man I wanted at the time was an heir to the biggest hotel company in the country. We broke up because he liked to cheat on me. I met Cullen while accompanying my boyfriend to various events.Cullen knew my lover's bad habits. He told me everything, thinking I didn't know. His persistence melted my heart. Cullen comforted me when that jerk screwed another woman in his ap

“Oh.” Taylor glanced at the door. “Is that your boyfriend? Okay. I'll be in the bedroom. Don't worry. You won't know I'm here.”“Tay,” I called. I sighed in annoyance as I watched her continue walking towards the bedroom on the right.What did she want by coming to my place? Didn't she attend the club's birthday event to represent Oscar? Why did she leave the place and follow me instead? That woman was annoying.I turned toward the door. Sinclair wouldn't have rung the bell, but he was the only one who had ever come to my unit. Felicia was at the club. She wouldn't leave until all the dancers had performed. Could it be Wesley?I approached the door and opened it. It was Scott. He handed me my phone, which I left in the car's back seat. After thanking him, I closed the door. I didn't remember taking it out of my bag.“Hm. That's too bad. I was hoping to meet the guy you're with right now,” Taylor said from the bedroom doorway.“You promised I wouldn't know you were here,” I protested.
