My Husband Fell for My Would-Be Killer Chapter 06

Gabriele shrugged, his tone flippant.

“Who said I was dead?”

“I just didn’t want Grandfather’s pile of junk, so I took off.”

Roman’s face flushed with humiliation.*

After all, that “pile of junk” Gabriele had dismissed so casually was everything Roman had.

Roman snapped, “Then why did you come back?”

Gabriele grinned.

“Because I felt like it.”

Roman looked so furious that I couldn’t help laughing.

Just then, Noemi rushed over and helped Roman up, her face full of concern.

“Honey, are you okay?”

“Beatrice has gone way too far. She came up with all these vicious tricks just to take you away from

me!”

Roman shoved Noemi’s hand away.

Then he turned to me with a look of tender affection.

“Beatrice, I know you only did this because you didn’t want me marrying someone else. Fine. You

got what you wanted.”

“Enough of this. I promise you’ll always be my wife.”

“So clear this up in front of everyone right now.”

I let out a derisive laugh and pulled out the divorce papers.

“Who said we’re still married? We’re divorced.”

“And another thing. You’re standing at your own wedding and still calling me your wife? Do you

have any shame?”

Roman stared at his own signature on the papers, stunned.

A moment later, something seemed to click.

He turned sharply toward Noemi.

Her eyes reddened, and she looked at him with hurt written all over her face.

“Didn’t you say you didn’t love her?”

“Didn’t you say I was your-”

Roman cut her off with a hard slap.

His face went cold with anger.

“I never wanted a divorce.”

Then he turned back to me, his expression instantly softening into a tender smile.

“Beatrice, I didn’t know about the divorce, so it doesn’t count.”

“We’re husband and wife. We shouldn’t let misunderstandings like this come between us.’

“I’ll make sure Noemi never comes near you again. You can stay out of each other’s lives. Isn’t that

enough?”

I raised an eyebrow but said nothing.

Noemi was the one who lost her temper first.

“Roman, you think groveling like this is going to make her forgive you?”

“You helped betray Bellacorte Family too.”

“You said they looked down on you, so you wanted to make them pay. You also said—”

Roman slapped her again.

This time, hatred appeared in Noemi’s eyes.

Realizing there was no room left to maneuver, Roman finally stopped smiling.

“Beatrice, I’ve tried being reasonable. Keep this up. You may not be leaving here today.”

I gave him a contemptuous smile and clapped my hands.

Several bound men were dumped out of one of the helicopters. They were badly injured, and each wore the black lion crest on his arm.

The moment Noemi saw them, her expression changed.

I looked at Roman with open mockery.

“Roman, you’ve lost Ardizzone Dynasty. What do you have left? Bellacorte Family’s Manhattan

crew?”

“Don’t forget.”

“Everything you have came from me. If I gave it to you, I can take it back.”

“Appare

new bride didn’t tell you. She sent these men to kill me today, and that gave me

hance to catch them.”

ould thank her. She handed me the perfect opportunity to clean the traitors out of the

Manhattan crew.”

Every trace of color drained from Roman’s face.

He grabbed Noemi by the throat, his eyes bloodshot with rage.

“You bitch!”

He did

go until Noemi stopped struggling.

Coman dropped to his knees in front of me and begged.

Beatrice, None of this was what I wanted. Noemi seduced me!”

“Look! I killed her for you!”

“Give me one more chance. You’re the only woman I love!”

I stared at the man I’d loved for years and suddenly felt sick.

“You must have loved me very much.”

“You slept with someone else while I was unconscious, then tried to imprison me after I woke up.”

“You even helped kill Renzo!”

“Did you ever love me, or did you only love yourself?”

Roman had no answer.

The color drained from his face as he collapsed onto the ground.

“You… you knew everything?”
