Dangerous Secrets: My Mafia Stepbrother

The bathtub was right by the window, and now, in the evening, under the dark night, the bustling nightlife of Chicago with its colorful lights and lively scenes unfolded before Isabella and Emanuele from their angle.

Even though their window had been specially treated so that no one outside could see in, Isabella couldn’t help but wonder, what if someone did see them? The worry of being seen crawled into her mind like ants, yet strangely, it also brought about a sense of excitement.

At that moment, Emanuele parted Isabella’s legs and entered her body. After countless moments of passion they had shared previously, they were now in perfect sync with each other. Emanuele knew Isabella’s sensitive spots, and Isabella knew the kind of posture Emanuele liked.

As they lay in the water, Emanuele even playfully smacked Isabella’s buttocks, creating splashes of water. Isabella couldn’t help but moan. Despite the pain from Emanuele’s action, she felt an exhilarating sensation, as if her soul was trembling.

“Isabella, I love it when you act like a wanton woman,” Emanuele said, uttering some words that humiliated Isabella.

Yet, Isabella didn’t get angry. Instead, she felt particularly excited. She tilted her face upward, letting the water flow down her body, completely in Emanuele’s control, allowing him to have his way with her.

It was too intense. Isabella felt as if fireworks were exploding in her mind, and her body trembled all over. Soon, Isabella reached climax.

However, Emanuele didn’t stop; he continued to change positions. Finally, he lifted Isabella out of the water, dried her off, and carried her to the bed. Isabella was so exhausted that she could fall asleep immediately with her eyes closed.

Looking at Isabella’s peaceful sleeping face, Emanuele couldn’t help but smile. “Sleep well, Isabella,” he said. Watching Isabella sleep, he felt content. As calm as Isabella appeared, Emanuele remained worried about any internal pain she might be experiencing. He could only do his best to protect her.

The next day, when Emanuele woke up, Isabella was still asleep. He had some matters to attend to, so he had to leave early. Watching Isabella peacefully lying in bed, Emanuele kissed her on the lips. “Darling, I hope you stay safe and healthy forever.”

Now, he had to immerse himself back into the battle. His enemies had become so cunning, unlike before. Their battles used to be about firepower, but now, everything was different. His enemies had become smart and sly, always hiding in the shadows, leaving everyone in the dark about their next move.

Emanuele felt a headache coming on, but for Isabella’s safety, he knew he had to handle his enemies well.

Glancing at Isabella, he turned and went downstairs. Tony and Harry were downstairs, and Emanuele told them, “From now on, both of you need to inspect all packages Isabella receives, not only for safety but also to check the contents. I don’t want a repeat of what happened yesterday.”

“Understood,” Tony and Harry replied.

Their faces turned serious. This incident was indeed their responsibility. Seeing their wife so despondent during her miscarriage a while back had been heartbreaking. Now that she had finally recovered, they were truly concerned that this incident might affect her mood once again.

Thankfully, when Isabella came downstairs to have breakfast, she seemed calm, which relieved them.

As Isabella ate breakfast, she received a message from a colleague: “Isabella, are you Emanuele’s wife? I saw a photo in the news, and the woman looked a lot like you.”

Isabella hesitated as she looked at her phone. Her colleagues had recognized her, even though the news had been swiftly dealt with by Emanuele, it still managed to spread within a small circle.

The woman in the photo did indeed resemble her, and those who knew her could immediately guess it was her upon seeing the picture. Taking a deep breath, Isabella tried to keep calm.

“What do you mean? You must have mistaken someone else for me.”

“It really looks like you. No wonder you’ve been absent for a while. Did this whole thing affect you?”

Her prolonged absence from work had indeed aroused suspicions. At the time, she had claimed it was due to health issues, and now her colleagues were likely to link it to this incident.

“That’s not true. I really had health issues before. I was suffering from depression, and I couldn’t work at that time, which is why I had to take a break.”

“Oh, my God, I’m so sorry to hear that,” her colleague immediately responded.

Isabella didn’t want to continue the conversation. She felt that no matter how much she explained, it wouldn’t make a difference if the other person had doubts.

“Many people also thought that the woman in the news was me. This has caused a lot of trouble in my life. My mental health was already very fragile, and now, I can’t go back to work. I need to continue resting for a while.”

“Isabella, take care of yourself. Take good care,” her colleague replied.

After finishing the conversation, Isabella sighed as she put down her phone. After a while, Grazia also sent her a message.

“Isabella, what’s going on? I saw that news. Are you okay? Who spread it?”

Grazia was both worried and anxious, afraid that this news might cause psychological trauma for Isabella.Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’m fine, Grazia. You don’t need to worry about me. I’m doing well here.”

“Are you really okay? Isabella, I really wish I could be with you right now.”

Isabella hadn’t expected that Grazia also knew about this incident. She furrowed her brow. Grazia was about to give birth in Italy, and Isabella knew that this situation wouldn’t be good for her.

“It’s okay, Grazia. I’m very strong right now.”

After comforting Grazia, Isabella immediately informed Emanuele about the situation. Grazia was in Italy, and the information she received was different from theirs. Even though Emanuele had swiftly handled the news, how did she still find out?

Isabella couldn’t directly ask Emanuele, so she had to talk to Rocco.

“Grazia received a message on her phone with the link to the news,” Rocco said, sounding somewhat angry.

It was obvious that the message had been sent to Grazia on purpose, intending for everyone who knew Isabella to find out about the incident. Was the goal to make Isabella collapse? But this also hurt Grazia. Rocco was particularly angry at the thought of his wife about to give birth and being subjected to this kind of stress.

Emotions can have a significant impact on a pregnant woman, and if Grazia experienced any physical problems due to these negative emotions, he wouldn’t let those bastards off the hook!
