The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 39. His Rejection
Lucy’s POVI sat back in the car, my hands were shaking with shock, pain, and anger.The person I thought would protect me from pain was actually making it worse. I took a deep breath, clenched my chest, and gulped, "Sh*t..." Arman climbed back into the car and told the driver, "Drive." He wasn't even brave enough to look at or talk to me after what happened there.On our journey to the villa, he remained silent, letting out a heavy sigh as he averted his eyes from me and cast them toward the window.When we went back to the Villa, Enrique stood there, expecting Arman. Enrique was going to say something, but when he saw how disappointed I looked, he shut his mouth and watched me go upstairs. "What happened to your wife?" "Don't worry about her." Arman replied. I opened the bedroom's room and slammed the door shut.***********************As everyone else got ready for the next day, I stood in front of the mirror and stared at how terrible I looked. Sofia walked in and said, "Oh
The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 40. Jasper Moore: The Psycho
Lucy’s POV The second her gaze met mine, Jane's reaction froze. "L—Lucy, is that really you?" Jane asked uncomfortably, her mouth slowly opening. Vianne stepped forward and scrutinized me from head to toe, “It’s really you.” and she whispered in my ear, “How did you survive?” I smiled at her, “Maybe I should be the one who asked how you guys survive after all this time?” "What are you talking about?" Angela asked in response as she scowled at me. "Obviously, we had nothing to do with that assault on your life. That was Thomas." "And you can't do anything with it anymore," Cristelle said with a soft laugh. "We told your husband about him already, and guess what? Thomas is already locked up." My lips trembled as I asked in confusion, "Jail?" I thought Arman killed him the other day. "Yes, you heard it right. Thomas is already in prison," Jane replied while slowly shaking her glass of wine. And she smiled sweetly at me, "But if you came here to spite me. Don't bother doing i
The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 41. You're Such A Coward
Lucy’s POVMy heart was so heavy that I cried the whole way outside. It was so lonely, and I felt like no one cared about me, so I thought I was going crazy.The rain started pouring down as I crossed into the walking lane. I felt awful about myself, but I had to keep going. I stood in the middle of the road for a short time while tears slowly ran down my cheeks, but unexpectedly, someone grabbed me out of the road and hugged my small frame. My eyes suddenly widened as I saw it was Arman. He dragged me to the corner of the road and asked, "What are you doing? Are you planning to kill yourself?" "N–no." I then pushed him away and wiped my tears away. My evening gown was drenched, yet I couldn't help but shake as I gazed at him, as if he were in tears under the heavy downpour. He asked, "Do you hate me so much that you have to stand in the middle of the road to kill yourself? What would happen if I didn't save you? You never know what might happen to you!" I threw the wedding ring
The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 42. Divorce Finalization
Lucy’s POVAs soon as I stepped foot in the airport, an employee saw me and came up to say, "Hi, Miss Lucy Hansley, Arman Romano's wife, I assume?"I wasn't sure what to say at first, but I nodded and stated, "Y–Yes?" She forced a sweet smile on her face and said, "Mr. Romano has banned you from traveling right now." "What the heck?" I raised an eyebrow in surprise. How could that jerk stop me from going on a break? I thought he was set on letting me go, but now he's changed his mind. I clenched my hand and left without saying anything. Someone walked up to me as I dragged my luggage back to the cab stand. He was dressed in a blue royal suit and smiled at me. He extended his hand and said, "Hi, Mrs. Romano, I'm Anthony Hernandez, and I am your divorce lawyer."Damn! I was fed up with it all. This Arman Romano guy is making me crazy. I took a deep breath, shook the attorney's hand, and asked, "What are you doing here in the airport? Tell me, did he just tell you to follow me?" He
The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 43. She Strikes Back!
Lucy’s POVI never expected to see my grandma again after all these years. She has this ingrained belief that I am a product of an illicit love affair, so when I visited her in her Swiss home a long time ago, she seemed somewhat aloof from me. I took a deep breath and was about to say something, but her palm landed on my face.I touched the side of my face and slowly looked at her with shocked expression and asked, “Grandma—” "Don't call me your grandma. Your family and you are such a shame to my name. Oh, why are you even here? Do you not know that Mr. Roux owns this hotel? The one who fell victim to your father's con?" Stepping back, I noticed Jane's gleeful expression as she watched me cower in shame. "Maybe your dad owes a lot more to all my acquaintances," Grandma Barbara said as she sighed and looked at me with disgust. I wiped away my tears and pursed my lips. "Are you now completely deaf? I asked you, why are you here?" "He is still your son," I said as I looked up. "Yo
The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 44. Hate Me
Lucy’s POV"Did you hear that right?! Or are you hearing impaired?" The moment she heard my humor, she looked completely crazy. Just as she was going to strike me, Arman intervened and prevented her hand from reaching my face. She looked at Arman in shock and said, “And who do you think you are?!” Arman gave my granny a piercing glare, but I yanked his hand away and said, "Arman—Stop it." "I always think I'm an angel, but it turns out I'm a demon who collects old souls like yours," he said as he plastered a sweet smile.When the tall, intimidating man in front of them said that, everyone's expressions changed to one of utter amazement. The hotel manager fearfully cleared his throat and said calmly, "Madam, the case is already over. Miss Hansley is leaving this hotel soon."Grandma’s lips quivered a bit and raised an eyebrow, “Well, that’s good news.” I could tell by the look on Jane's face that she was shocked and scared by what Arman had just said to them, so she grabbed Grandm
The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 45. Pay The Price
Lucy’s POVI hold my breath as I look at the divorce papers. That sour smile came from the fact that Arman and I were no longer tied. It was sad to say goodbye in this way, but I guess it's for the best since I can't change anything."Miss Hansley, congratulations," my divorce lawyer said with a smile, and he added, "There's no need to wait three months for it to be dealt with. You're now free."I smiled and sighed. "Thank you, Mr. Hernandez." He took out two keys from his suitcase and said, "These are the keys to your new home. The other key is for your new car." "And here's your new bank account that Mr. Romano has already deposited the one million dollars in compensation," he added, presenting me with the bank passbook.This level of generosity from Arman is unbelievable. As in, he paid for everything so I wouldn't complain; he gave this to me so I wouldn't worry about him anymore.He paid me this much because he wanted me to stay out of his life.I bit my lower lip and smiled bi
The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 46. I will never be okay
Lucy’s POVAs I stared at him, holding my breath, I tried to clear my vision, but I still couldn't place this man. Slowly, he moved toward me, and I moved back while I thought about what to do. A voice in my head tells me to run, but I can't move. I was shocked and couldn't move while looking at the man who was getting closer and closer.Until I saw him slowly take something out of his leather jacket. At that moment, I decided to run away from him and clutched my purse. I turned away from him and scanned my surroundings, hoping to find an exit.I turned the corner and saw the word "exit." I sped to the exit while panicking and quickly breathing. I stumbled a little, but when I looked back, he still followed me, which widened my eyes. I took off my green stilettos and ran as fast as I could.I kept running and running, eventually running into someone on the street.

Ray said as he sat on the couch, playing with his gun.Even though it's crystal clear that I don't want her or want to see her, this woman is continuously trying to force herself on me. I let out a soft sigh and walked to the door. When I opened it, I saw her in her pajamas. Her feet were so dirty that it looked like she had run away from home and come here to see me.I asked with narrowed eyes, "What are you doing here?""H—Help me. My father wants to kill me, and you're the only person I can trust." She said it with a voice full of fear. She looked around, and as she did, her tears began to roll back into her cheeks.

The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 94. Like A Sister
Lucy’s POV"Yes, Grandma." I said, lowering my head, trying not to shed tears this time. "But I guess Jane needs you the most now. She just lost her child and it must be painful for her to lose two people important in her life."Grandma sighed in remorse, her voice mixed with pain as she said, "I didn't know that we were being too considerate with Jane but not with you, my dear."I smiled. "It's okay; life is like that. I have to go."I glanced at Uncle Robert, who looked so worried about Jane's condition, and Aunt Cecille ran outside to call the nurse and doctor. My heart felt like it was wrenched a thousand times because Jane still has parents who love her truly, but I am here, feeling like a lost daughter.Aunt Cecille glanced at me as I turned my back on them; she said nothing, but the look of unfathomable guilt was written all over her face.

The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 93. The Hysterical Jane
Lucy’s POV"What's wrong?" It looked like he didn't want to talk about it again. So I blocked his way and asked, "Say something." "I guess someone hired him to kill you. But no one still knows who that guy was. Why don't you forget about it so you don't have to worry about it anymore?" "How can I forget about it if my life has been in danger and people have tried to kill me ever since my father died?" I asked with disdain. He touched my face and whispered, "You need not be afraid anymore. Please know that I am here for you and will protect you as long as you are with me."I felt a pang, a bitter ache in my heart as I stared at him. He says the same things that Arman always told me, and I can't help but think about the good old times with Arman. Looking at him, though, brought back a memory. I remember another smile, one that completely captivated me. It was Arman's smile, the one that never failed to make my heart race and flutter. “Are you alright?” Hugo asked as he scanned my f

It's been hard for me to forget about him, but now I'm crying again because of him. I took a deep breath and hailed a cab. When I got inside, I saw a suspicious-looking knife and a rope. I retreated and said, "I think I forgot something. Sorry." I then closed the car door and ran away in fear.But the taxi followed in the street, I frowned and muttered in panic, “What’s wrong with him?” Even though it was pouring rain, I kept running until I tripped and looked like I couldn't go on. The cab driver stopped in front of me. As I tried to crawl, he got out of his car and smiled at me. He had a deep scar on his face. "So, you're Lucy Hansley? You've been on my radar, Lucy...""Who are you?! What do you want from me?" I yelled in fear and then grabbed a rock to throw at him. As I stood up, I groaned in pain and tried to run as fast as I could, even

My heart throbbed in pain as I said, "And after this, what?! You're going to leave me again! How can you kiss me, want to make love to me, and in the end, you're still going to leave me like nothing happened between us?!""Lucy…" Silence engulfed the room as he watched my tears trace paths down my cheeks.

The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 90. Kiss Me Back
Arman’s POV"Delayed?!" I growled angrily, my voice a rumble that sent shivers down the spines of my men lined up before me. They all lowered their heads as I barked into the phone, "What do you mean by delayed? It's been three damn days that shipment's been floating in that damn ocean!"Ray answered, "Port security's been doing thorough inspections, and we can't afford to lose another shipment. So, we asked the captain to hold standby.""Ray..." I sighed, my anger simmering. "You better handle this. No more delays by tomorrow, or else we lose the Pattani deal."Looking up, I met my men's eyes and issued a command: "Request an extension from Pattani. I want one of you to dig deeper into Hugo Ricci. I want a comprehensive report on him.""Yes, boss." Then they started marching out.I stepped outside while my chest pounded angrily just thinking about the shipments. Then, my thoughts drifted back to Lucy and Hugo again.

The Ruthless Mafia Lord's Regret 89. Say Hello To Satan
Lucy’s POV"Lucy," he said gently, drawing me back to the conversation. But I didn't know what to say to him; my mind was a tangled mess. How could I respond to his question? Part of me feared rejecting him, but another larger part was that I couldn't ignore the growing unease in my gut. Ever since his relentless pursuit began, his true colors had started to show. He didn't just give up so easily; he tried to make me happy again, which made me reluctant to ignore his feelings. Before Alicia could spot us, I dragged Hugo into my office and locked the door. Taking a deep breath, I tried to calm my nerves. He waited patiently, his gaze fixed on me. Then I turned to face him and bit my lower lip. "Hugo..." He smiled."How can you forget him if you don't want to try dating me?" he asked, suggesting a relationship.I took another soft breath and let out a nervous chuckle. "What? What are you talking about? I have already moved on and am trying to make myself happy again. See? I'm happy

He watched silently as my sobs wracked my body.Wiping away tears and sniffling, I forced out the words, "I think..." I paused softly and expressed, "I think it's best if you distance yourself from me." "Why?" He reached out a hand hesitantly, then stopped before making contact. "I know I must seem like a stranger, but seeing your pain... It hurts me too. I can't bear to see you cry because of him. I know you don't understand me doing this to you, but trust me, I don't know either." "I know you're trying your best, but seeing you reminds me of him too much."His eyes clouded with sadness as he took a step back. "Well, Lucy," he said softly, "If that's what you want, I can't argue. But remember, whenever you're ready to face the world again, I'm just right here for you, okay?" I nodded, offering a weak smile of apology as I slowly closed the door. Left alone, I sank to the floor

Lucy’s POV"Why would I kill myself just for him?" I asked him with a laugh and added, "That's not who I am." He didn't say anything; he just looked at me as if he had something on his mind that he couldn't say. I met his gaze head-on, "Hugo, I'm fine. Do yourself a favor and go home." His hand went into his pocket as he stood up, his face a mask of concern. "Are you sure you'll be okay by yourself here?" he asked."Hugo, why do you care so much about me? Watching people die is probably nothing new to you," I said, my voice tinged with bitterness. A flicker of pain written on his face and he replied with clenched jaw, "You don't know anything about me. Yes, Arman and I are the same people who grew up in that world. But I am not ruthless like him." I watched him walk to the door. Before he opened it, he glanced back at me and said, "I know you think I'm a bad person, but I'm still human. And when I care for someone, Lucy, I don't fake it. Remember that."And he left me with a hea
