Dangerous Secrets: My Mafia Stepbrother

Evelyn felt like she was going crazy; she had a sense of what William wanted her to do. “William, please, please don’t force me, okay? Isabella and I are best friends. I won’t hurt her.”

Watching Evelyn cry so heartbrokenly, tears streaming down her cheeks, her eyes red and vulnerable, she looked like an abandoned stray cat.

Unable to resist, William reached out to wipe Evelyn’s face. “Evelyn, rest assured, I won’t make you harm Isabella.”

Evelyn felt somewhat reassured.

She felt like she was standing on the edge of a cliff, about to fall off at any moment.

“Just get rid of Isabella’s child, that’s all.”

Evelyn widened her eyes, wanting to struggle out of his embrace. However, William held her tightly, making her powerless to leave.

Evelyn’s body couldn’t help but tremble, as if she had seen a devil.

And this devil was right beside her, making her a puppet to do his bidding.

“William, have you gone mad? God will punish you for being such a devil, for targeting an unborn child? You’re really insane. What were you thinking? How could you do this to him?”

William chuckled, standing up and taking out a packet of pills from his coat pocket, handing it to Evelyn. “Just put these pills in water for Isabella to drink. Don’t worry, it won’t harm Isabella, but it will kill her child.”

“Madman, I won’t do it!” Evelyn threw the packet of pills onto the floor.

She was a doctor, and she was as close to Isabella as a sister. Now, William was asking her to kill the child in Isabella’s womb?Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

Evelyn’s entire body trembled, and she couldn’t help but retch.

When her emotions became too agitated, Evelyn felt nauseous.

Seeing Evelyn in such a state, William smiled. “So, you want to refuse? Well, it seems that between your parents and Isabella’s child, you’ve chosen Isabella’s child. For the sake of a child who hasn’t been born yet, you’re willing to let your parents die. When you see the results, will you cry?”

At this point, William picked up his phone, tapped it, and showed Evelyn a photo on his phone.

Evelyn almost screamed, but she tightly covered her mouth to avoid her parents hearing her uncontrolled scream.

She hadn’t expected William to be monitoring her parents. It was very late, and her parents were already in bed asleep. William showed her a video, shot right next to her parents’ bed.

At such close range, her parents hadn’t noticed, which meant that there were probably many people hiding in her home at this moment, all concealed in the dark, out of sight.

“William, please, don’t hurt my parents.” Evelyn cried.

“As long as you obey, how could I possibly harm them? Evelyn, they’ve been so good to me, warm and kind. I like you and your parents, so, Evelyn, don’t disappoint me, alright? Give this packet of pills to Isabella. Once her child is gone, your parents will be safe.”

William picked up the packet of pills again and handed them to Evelyn.

This time, Evelyn didn’t throw them away, but tremblingly took them. Her entire body was shaking, she felt cold, and she felt like she might faint at any moment.

Her mind also felt hazy and occasionally pricked with pain, making Evelyn especially uncomfortable.

She stuffed the packet of pills into her pocket, her emotions complex, unsure of what to do.

Her parents were being threatened, and William’s people had directly entered their room. They didn’t suspect a thing; they could be shot and killed very easily.

Seeing Evelyn’s obedient and compliant appearance, William was very pleased, holding Evelyn in his arms, lowering his head and kissing Evelyn’s cheek. “Go to sleep, Evelyn.”

Evelyn wished she could take out a knife and stab it into her own heart, but she thought of her parents.

She really had no choice, no way out. She was afraid for her parents.

The next day, Evelyn got up very early. After breakfast, William left, and soon, Tony came to pick up Evelyn to go back to her apartment.

Before leaving, Evelyn’s mother packed a lot of cookies for her, asking Evelyn to bring them for her friend to try.

Originally, Evelyn wanted to refuse, but her mother had made them herself, and now her parents were in danger and being threatened by William. She didn’t know how many more times she would be able to eat the cookies her parents made for her in the future.

Back at the apartment, Isabella was already up. Seeing Evelyn return, she immediately said, “Evelyn, why didn’t you reply to my messages yesterday?”

Only then did Evelynremember that she had told Tony she would stay at her parents’ house that night. Isabella had messaged her later, but because William was there, she didn’t dare say anything. She had planned to wait until William was out of sight before replying to Isabella’s message, but she had forgotten.

“I forgot. I haven’t seen my parents in a long time, so we talked for a long while last night. I meant to reply to you after seeing your message, but I forgot in the blink of an eye. I’m sorry, Isabella.”

“I was just worried about you. It’s okay, Evelyn. You also know that it’s dangerous around you now, so I asked you to stay with us temporarily. By the way, are your parents okay? William wouldn’t harm them, would he? If possible, I can have Emanuele arrange for someone to protect them.”

“My parents are fine. Thankfully, their lives haven’t been affected.”

Oh God, she nearly broke down by the end. She had managed to hold it in so strongly.

“That’s a relief,” Isabella said, sighing in relief. “When Emanuele catches William, you’ll be safe. We can go out anytime and anywhere, go shopping, and buy clothes and toys for my daughter. Evelyn, have you thought about what gift to give my daughter?”

A gift?

Evelyn smiled. “I can give the baby a stroller, so we can take her out for walks.”

“Great idea!”

Seeing Isabella so happy, envisioning the future, her entire face seemed to glow.

Evelyn felt even more miserable.

She couldn’t have imagined that her good friend would want to poison her, to take the life of her unborn child.

Evelyn didn’t want to do it, but her parents were in William’s hands, and he could kill them at any moment.

The thought shattered Evelyn’s heart.

Evelyn reached out to touch Isabella’s belly, feeling the small bump there, where the child was growing every day.

“Isn’t it amazing, Evelyn? The process of nurturing life is truly miraculous.”
