All Chapters of THE MAFIA LORD’s CONTRACTUAL WIFE: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

“The loan sharks are here again. They are probably headed to the Asmodeus family’s apartment.”I felt my heart skip a beat after hearing those words with my family surname included. I immediately ran as quickly as I could towards our place. It was rather shocking news to hear about them going on a rampage again after a few months of absence. Fuck! I even wished for them to be killed by someone so they would never come back here again! They shouldn’t have come back. I just finished working as a marketing strategist at a small firm when I heard about them harassing my family again. I didn’t expect that the loan sharks would come back to our place when I almost paid all of our debt. I had been working my ass off just to pay grandpa’s debt to avoid this incident from happening, but still, it happened. I grind my teeth in irritation. Upon arrival, I saw my father lying on the floor while taking all the punches a man was throwing at him. I looked around and saw that our place wasn’t in

RANLEIGHI sighed for the fourth time while staring at my computer. I haven’t done anything yet and I am still stuck with the planning. For fuck’s sake! I am so distracted about what happened the day before yesterday and it kept on bugging my mind. The fuckard just kept on bugging my mind and it’s affecting my work. Damn! This isn’t me and him having this effect on me is disturbing enough. Seriously, this has to stop. I got my phone out of my sling bag and stared at his calling card which I almost threw earlier. I had to get him out of my mind. Maybe texting him will help? I laughed. Crazy. Of course it won’t help, dumb idiot. I groaned and pushed my phone and the calling card on my table far enough for me not to reach it. I was playing with a pen in my hand while looking outside the window, trying to remember when was the last time I relaxed like this. I had been working my butt off after hearing about granpa’s debt. Seriously, it was dumb of me to join an org in the underworld,

RANLEIGHAfter Bryce left, a maid guided me to my room that was prepared especially for me — that was at least what the maid said. It is on the second floor of the mansion and it is nerve-wracking to memorize every turn we made on our way to my room. The mansion is so big and there are so many hallways. I couldn’t memorize the way out of the mansion at all. Hell. It even looks like a palace. After arriving, I thanked the maid and smiled at her. The maid just bowed her head. “I’ll prepare your bath, my lady. Please excuse me.”I nodded my head and cued the maid to get out of the room. Without looking back, the maid got out of the room as if in a hurry.I sighed and slumped my body on the bed. I took a deep breath and stared at the ceiling that was carved with ancient designs. Prepare my bath? What do they think of me? An idiot who couldn’t even prepare the bath for myself?I shook my head. This life is just too different from my life outside the Marquisate and it isn’t for me at all.

RANLEIGH“If you’re going to lie, Your Excellency, please try controlling your expression. You're making it obvious that you are still head-over-heels with the lady,” I said. I scratched my head and laughed awkwardly. “You often wear a blank expression but that hard stoic face becomes soft every time you’ll mention her name. You’re being obvious, Sir,” I added.Bryce furrowed his brows. “What happened to Mr. Vergara? Why are you calling me more formally now?” he asked, totally ignoring what I just said.I cleared my throat and avoided his eyes. I will never admit that I am starting to draw a line between us. I knew that Bryce would ask me why and I don’t know how to dodge that question without telling him the truth. And hell! I will never admit that I am attracted to him and if he continues being nice to me, I’m afraid that I might really end up falling in love with him. I thought that he was an awful person based on how he acted the first time we met and the second until the third. Th

RANLEIGH“The lady needs to know the basic etiquettes so the Marquess’ name won’t be put in jeopardy,” a maid whispered. I slightly opened my eyes and looked at her. She was combing her hair gently with a soft expression.The other maid groaned in annoyance. She was more hostile than the first. “Why do I have to serve such a woman? My parents didn’t raise me for this!” she yelledI slowly opened my eyes and stared at the two. They were very well dressed for a maid and elegance could be seen from the way they talked. I grinned. I wished to see more of these noble’s distorted faces after seeing a commoner reign higher than them. A commoner who they looked down could fly higher than they ever could. It would be fantastic to see their disappointed and enraged faces. But it would be more fantastic to see my grandmother’s face filled with rage. I got up and stretched my arms. A good sunny morning for me should be a hell to the two ladies.I smiled as I walked towards the two. It is really
