The Mafia’s Unwanted Daughter Is Now Their Downfall Chapter 09

Elsewhere, Luca also heard the news about my high score.

I had never told him just how much I had improved.

I had wanted to wait until the results came out to surprise

him.

So when he heard the news, he was completely stunned.

But once the shock passed, what he felt most was elation.

Originally, when the head of the Ferraro Family learned that Luca had scored nearly perfect marks but still planned to give up the East Coast for Bianca, he had summoned Luca to

In that moment, he had found himself thinking about how I

had once hiked beside him for a week straight.

Even after blood blisters formed on my feet, I had never

asked anyone to carry me.

Luca thought that if he really had to choose between Bianca

and me-
