Chapter 77: Another ChanceSERENA'S POVI don't know how Luca did it, but he managed to climb up the ladder and reach the plank that held me. It wasn't a solid plan, but it was a little safer because the thick wood was attached to the ceiling.One mistake and we could've ended up in the acid."The bomb," I panicked."I deactivated it with the control," he reminded me."Oh, yeah," I added. "Thanks."He didn't reply, he just untied me."Ngh," I chewed on my bottom lip. The stitches on my arm and thigh weren't healed yet."Sorry," he said."Thanks," I replied. Maybe he wasn't totally cold towards me yet. "Let's throw the bomb into the acid just in case she tries to activate it again," I suggested."Is that safe?" he raised an eyebrow.I shrugged. "We won't know until we try."We tossed it into the acid, hoping that was the right decision.As soon as Luca helped me down the ladder amidst the turbulence, I sprinted towards Maria.Living a happy life or moving on won't be possible if that w

Chapter 78: Moving on.•TWO MONTHS LATER•The following day two months ago, the warehouse became one of the major headlines on the news. Different broadcasting stations were there with their own point of view. Some fabricated their own stories while some were honest.The police who claimed to be on the search for those who caused the fire have not raised anything since, and the best part was that Maria was dead. Skulls of bodies were found in and out of the warehouse, and a particular ring was attached to a skeleton's finger. Maria's ring, her most expensive one. I knew it so well, all too well that I'd be able to tell it apart from a fake because there was only one of it in existence.Days, weeks and times had gone by and so much had happened. There was a lot of explaining to do to everyone about who I actually was, both within and outside the Di Salvo mansion. People were curious to meet me.I met some of my father's old friends, many of whom I had actually forgotten over the years.

Chapter 79: Never Be EnoughIt felt surreal. I received a notification from Hanvard and immediately shared the news with Uncle Federic, who was the most supportive. He then informed everyone that they would be watching the results with us. It took some persuasion for me to agree, for two reasons. First, if I got in, I could rub it in everyone's faces, and if I didn't, they would be there to support me through any nervous breakdown. Uncle Federic even had two cakes made for the occasion. One for congratulations and the other for we still love you. What was I in? High school?The news was supposed to be a secret, but Lisa surprisingly let me in on it. She was confident that I would get in, and everyone seemed to share her optimism. I also invited Rosaline over, and she was thrilled for me."Is the projector really necessary?" I questioned the need for it."We want everyone to witness your success," Federico pointed out as he and his brother adjusted the projector's lighting."Perfect,"

Chapter 80: Never Be Enough (2) His eyes blinked open as I screamed at the top of my voice, tears streaming down my face. I ran out of the room and met Luca, Federic, Federico, and Mamma Lia in the passageway, and the stay-in nurse was with them. "I heard your scream from the garden," Mamma Lia asked. "What happened?" "H-he's awake," I smiled as tears rolled non-stop down my face. They were stunned, and they all darted towards the room while I followed behind. "Call the doctor right now!" Federic charged the nurse while she administered whatever she could. Adriano just lay there with eyes half shut and his lips slightly parted. The tears in my eyes and the gladness in my heart could never be enough to express how happy I truly was. I had prayed and hoped for three months, and it finally happened. "Serena," Luca called me out. I followed him. He offered me his handkerchief to wipe my tears. "Sorry," I sniffed. "It's just so sudden I didn't expect him to wake up tod

Chapter 81: Resolution"I don't know what to do," I said, feeling defeated."Let the pain go," she replied. "Far away from you. Know that it is not your fault. There are many bad people, but there are also those who try to fight their circumstances and end up losing to it. You have the ability to be kind. Luca has stuck by you all this time without trying to take the Mafia back from you. He cares.""How do you know?""Because I am your mother, and I am wise enough to know the implications of not giving my son the best advice. I will not be the one who misleads my son, and even if they ever try to hurt you, I will be there for you.""There is no point," I reminded her. "I'm dead.""You're not," she started to tear up. "I am so glad that your time is not up yet. That is why you must go and resolve everything before it is truly your time. However, I know you are to live a happy and long life because I know you still love her." She nudged me playfully, resulting in a slight chuckle from m

Chapter 82: Resolution (2)"I'm glad to see that you're doing well," I forced a smile."Are you?" He replied, his eyes on his computer."Why wouldn't I be?" I asked."I don't know," he paused before adding, "I can't read minds, you know?""Hm. I still think you should rest some more.""I'm in good health. Why are you here?" His tone was not harsh or cold but rather calm and composed, much like the look on his face.It made me feel uneasy. I expected him to yell and throw me out."I'll be leaving for the States soon," and that sentence was what finally made him look up."I'm going to study business.""Good to see that you have your life in order," he smiled briefly before returning to his stern expression."I can't address the main issue for coming to see you while you are here. When are you free later today? Would you like to have lunch? We could talk there.""Do you have any place in mind?""No. I was thinking anywhere that would be alright with you.""Okay," he looked at his watch a

Chapter 83: Never Not Wanted You(1).Serena's POV."Aria," Mamma Lia called out to me from upstairs when she saw me. She rushed downstairs in a way that made me worry about her old age."What is it that made you bolt down the stairs?""The men, and well, we all thought it would be nice to throw you a little send-off party to the States.""That won't be necessary," I refused."Your permission is important but not compulsory. We all want to spend time with you. You said you won't be coming back to Italy until your graduation. You have to be there.""Mamma-""What if I die before then? Will you not at least bond with me?" She put on quite the dramatic front."Fine. Fine. I'll be there," I agreed without having the strength to drag it any longer. "When is it?""Starts tonight at eight.""I'll be down then.""You can come thirty minutes late just to give us time to set everything right in case we forget something.""Okay," I nodded before heading upstairs.I took my time to continue packin

Chapter 84: Never Not Wanted You (2).ADRIANO'S POV.In order to revive the Mafia, I needed to establish connections with influential people. One such person was Liliana, who had been interested in Luca for years. She agreed to help only if I could arrange a date between her and Luca.During the game, my phone rang, and Aria handed it to me. It was likely that was Liliana calling to discuss the plans. I couldn't help but notice the little gasp Aria made, which I found cute. I waited until I excused myself to release the chuckle I had been holding in.Was she jealous? I had no intention of making her feel that way. She had asked for a divorce, but now she was jealous?Probably just shocked, I thought.She must have believed that my love for her was so insignificant that I would move on quickly. It hurt. I went into my room to take the call from Liliana. She was spoiled, demanding, and cocky, but I needed her to strike a deal with her father.I nearly had a heart attack when a shadow lo

Wrecking My Husband Authors Note-92
Hello, I'm Tori, the author of this book. I don't know where to begin, but thank you so much for sticking with me until the end. If you're reading this, you have a big place in my heart.Initially, this book was supposed to be 30 chapters for a competition I joined last year, but it ended up lasting longer than expected, so I could not use it anymore as a short story.Amid illnesses, school issues, and writer's block, I was able to complete "Wrecking My Husband" after a year.This is my first Mafia book, and honestly, I was so scared to continue with it. Sometimes I felt exhausted because this is the first time I'm writing anything romantic, and it just had to be a dark romance. My main genre is horror, so it was challenging.I had to take breaks to focus on so many things and think long and hard about how to connect the feelings of my characters to the readers.I did not think anyone would read this, and I'm sure many must have given up due to my very slow updates. But I'm healthy no
Wrecking My Husband Chapter 91
Chapter 91: A Better Life. ADRIANO'S POV Every day I wake up feeling fulfilled. I have my beautiful wife and my pretty five-year-old daughter who has my wife's beautiful brown hair and inherited my green eyes. The same eyes I used to hate for looking just like my father's, now made me happy each time I saw them in my daughter's face. On weekends, Aria and I would take strolls around the mansion to talk about everything on our minds, as well as things or people that bother us. Then we'd come to a conclusion on how to handle those situations. Most of the time, it ended well. Sometimes we'd argue about it, then settle it. But it was our ritual that we started after a year of marriage. We wanted to be completely honest with each other, no matter what, so that we could learn to embrace each and every side of one another. "Ready?" She hugged me from behind. "We have to be fast before Rick and Rosaline get here." "I am." Every time I looked at her, I felt blessed. She did not look

Chapter 90: Forever and Ever; Where Fate has Led Us (2).I've recently fallen more in love with ponytails and decided that was how I would style my hair tonight.To me, there was something stylish and classy about having your hair up rather than letting it down, but it all depends on the outfit. I considered a few other options but went for ponytails in the end.Touching up my makeup, I let my delusional self imagine how blissful the quality time I'd be having with Adriano would be tonight. Whenever I was with him, I only wished for time to stop and never continue; more than anything, I wanted it to last forever and ever.Discussing work-related affairs could wait. I did not want us to argue one bit tonight. Spraying my perfume, I got news that Luca had arrived."With the way you're dressed one would assume that you are responsible," I teased."As they would think the same for you," he jeered playfully, making both of us chuckle."The Uncles and Mamma Lia had gone before time so we'd
Wrecking My Husband Chapter 89
Chapter 89: Where Fate Has Led Us Adriano's POV Aria went through the formal procedures to get the job, and she scaled through every scrutinizing stage. Six months had gone by, and I could not be happier. We weren't ready to rush things. I knew Serena, but I could not say much about Aria. I wanted to know her completely just as she wanted to know me as well. And I love her all the same; no, I do not think I can love her any less. She, without knowing, has me completely wrapped around her fingers, and that is where I'd like to remain. Although the construction company boomed over time, it was a facade for the real deal: my Mafia. She gave me her support in both aspects, bagging contracts back and forth. She was a force, an unstoppable force. Even when I could obviously handle the matter, I left it to my woman so I could flaunt her intelligence to everyone. People would often tell me that I fell for a shrewd businesswoman, and it was an undeniable fact. I got worried from tim

Chapter 88: The Right Direction (2)I hated that I felt so cowardly. It shouldn't be that hard to say."These are just words, Aria! Just say it," I mentally scolded myself.I swallowed. He was waiting patiently for me to say whatever I had to. I also noticed how his forehead slowly creased with worry.I didn't think he had found someone else, not with how he had been acting since we met today. He was his usual self with me."What if he's just trying to be friendly?" My intrusive thoughts nagged me.I can't do this. I need some tequila, I thought. More so, I had already broken my self-made promise to stay away from alcohol only after a year."Give me a minute," I excused myself and got a bottle of tequila from my fridge.I know I said I'd never drink again, but this was the scariest thing I had done in a while.I was just about to take the second shot when he approached me at the mini liquor cabinet. "What are you doing?" He snatched the bottle from me, his anxiousness displayed by the

Chapter 87: The Right DirectionSERENA/ARIA'S POV"Where were we?" I chuckled lightly."Yes.""Adriano, put me down; people are watching.""Let them," he smiled."No, this is different," I pleaded. "People are everywhere.""You didn't seem to have any trouble with the Blondie carrying you in his arms. Yet, you have a problem with me," he feigned annoyance. "Would you rather go back to him?""No," I instantly admitted. "I want to stay with you," I quietly added."Good. I don't want you walking in heels that high; your feet will hurt."It was hard to deny what he said. Though I could easily move in the strapped heels, my ankles were beginning to hurt.We got to where his ride was, and I gasped."Is this a new ride?" The sun shining upon the black vehicle reflected its beauty even more."It got in three days ago, and I thought you should be the first person who gets to sit in it.""Ridiculous," I laughed."It's not ridiculous," he frowned. "This is the Aston Martin DB12, coupe.""Not the

Chapter 86: AFTER.The last four years have been a lot. Tough? Definitely. Peaceful? Not when I had to study for insane tests. Eventful? Yes. I missed everyone. I missed home. I was grateful for the opportunity to keep in touch with them all through video calls, especially with Adriano. There was not a day when he did not make time for me, even when he was covered in blood, bruised, disheveled, he'd call me.I did not think it would be easy all alone in a foreign country for my studies, but he kept me going even after our divorce was finalized. He never left me. My graduation day was the day I was going to let him know that I could not find someone else. I don't think I ever could. I was all his."Ow!" I yelped as the hair straightener burned my ear."What's wrong?" Adriano asked, sounding worried. I could tell how tense he was through the phone."Nothing, I wasn't careful with the straightener.""Please be more gentle. It's a big day," he told me."I will. You're on your way, right?"

Chapter 85: The Next Four Years. SERENA'S POV I woke up feeling trapped, my limbs entangled with something warm and firm. As my hands roamed firm and toned skin, panic set in. Why can't I remember anything? Argh! I shouldn't have followed him? Was I that desperate? I must've looked like a jealous fool! I mentally scolded myself uttering all sorts of profanities. It was when I shifted the soft grey duvet off my upper body that I noticed I was topless. I tried to recollect more from when I ended up in his room, but my effort was fruitless. I'll never drink again. I promised myself. That was the last straw. The one who died when I got drunk was me. There was no blaming Adriano; I brought it upon myself by trying to spy on him like an idiot. Judging from the fact that he was fully clothed and that my pants were on, we did not do much or go all the way. I struggled so much to get my legs out of his. He captured them like I would escape or something. With patience I never knew
