Dangerous Secrets: My Mafia Stepbrother

“What, what did you say? Emanuele slept with another woman?” Evelyn heard Isabella’s words and instantly felt angry.

Damn it, how could this happen.

She knew Emanuele really liked Isabella, although she didn’t see Emanuele often, she could sense Emanuele’s affection towards Isabella from some details.

Isabella also loved Emanuele, she was Isabella’s good friend, there was no need to question that.

So, she really didn’t understand why the two of them were getting a divorce now.

Of course, if it was for the reason Isabella told her, Evelyn would support Isabella.

She had seen Isabella’s difficult journey, seen Isabella’s struggles.

God, if it were her, she felt like she might have divorced long ago.

Going through life-threatening situations, facing this emotional test, this was truly not something ordinary people could experience.

“Isabella, you know, I am your good friend, I hope you can always be happy, so, no matter what decision you make, as long as you are happy, I will support you.”

Isabella hugged Evelyn, “Evelyn, what you said really makes me want to cry, I think, I and Emanuele really have to end it, too tired, all this mess makes me very tired, the pressure is huge.”

Actually, Isabella wasn’t lying, she was indeed tired because of Emanuele, but divorcing Emanuele was a combination of many factors.

She knew she and Emanuele were not from the same world, she was forcibly brought into the world of the Mafia, but until now, she hadn’t adapted well.

In fact, as a Mafia queen, she should be more tolerant towards her husband, allowing her husband to make mistakes in the marriage, allowing her husband to have close relationships with other women.

But Isabella knew she couldn’t do that, just like her, she liked Emanuele so much that no other man could enter her heart.

She knew Emanuele should be the same.

But now, Emanuele had disappointed her.

Regardless of whether Emanuele was set up or not, whether he had a relationship with someone, that picture of the bed just made her feel slapped in the face.

Knowing Evelyn supported her, Isabella also felt a little happier, Isabella felt that Evelyn was like her family now.

Her parents were gone, now the only person she could rely on was Evelyn.

And Evelyn’s optimism, confidence, actually infected Isabella.

Isabella knew it was good to meet Evelyn, at least she could chat with her good friend, confide her sorrows, and then she could move on.

Although she was a surgeon, she had also studied psychology before and knew that if emotional trauma piled up, problems could easily arise.

Talking about it would make it much better.

But she also knew that many people couldn’t really talk about their inner pain.

First of all, the listener must be trustworthy.

But many people might not find a trustworthy listener in their lifetime.

Thinking about this, Isabella suddenly felt so lucky, even though she had suffered so much before, she had Evelyn as her good friend, she could talk to Evelyn about everything without reservation.

And Evelyn was great, she would support her decisions, no matter how incomprehensible they might be to others, Evelyn always supported her.

“Alright, Isabella, since you have made up your mind, don’t dwell on these unhappy things, today we will eat, drink, have fun, how about I treat you, I earn my own money now, and also James’ salary is given to me, now I am a true rich woman. You don’t have to worry about my money, just tell me what you want, I’ll buy it for you!”

Looking at Evelyn’s bossy appearance, Isabella couldn’t help but laugh.

“Evelyn, you’re amazing, after I divorce, can you support me?”

“Come on, if you really get divorced, you’ll definitely be a rich woman, I’m planning to visit your villa, so wait for me.” Evelyn laughed.

Spending time with Evelyn, Isabella felt her emotions stabilize a bit.

But thinking about her relationship with Emanuele, Isabella still felt a little sad.

Because she knew divorce wouldn’t be easy, before, she had been so decisive, but Emanuele still went to investigate and didn’t want to divorce, what about now?

Now, Emanuele was in the wrong, but Isabella wasn’t too sure if Emanuele would agree to the divorce.

Of course, Emanuele couldn’t possibly divorce Isabella.

After leaving Isabella, Emanuele immediately had people investigate the surveillance in his hotel, no matter what, he had to clarify his relationship with Jessie.

He was drunk at the time, his mind blurred, that’s why Jessie brought him to the hotel.

There must be surveillance along the way.

However, Emanuele never expected that those surveillance videos had all been tampered with.

Even Zak, with his superb computer skills, infiltrated those surveillance systems, only to find that the surveillance footage from a week before and after the incident, was missing on the day Emanuele had the incident.

This clearly indicated tampering.

Emanuele’s face was now incredibly grim, like he was going to kill someone.

Zak didn’t dare provoke Emanuele.

Carefully, he asked, “Boss, what should we do? I feel like they erased all the clues from that day.”

Leaving no trace, this way, Emanuele didn’t even have a chance to prove his innocence.

Emanuele smoked expressionlessly, one cigarette after another, but his inner turmoil remained unsettled.

What should he do? He actually didn’t know what to do.

Isabella didn’t believe him, wanted to divorce him, he said he wanted to prove his innocence, but, he couldn’t even produce evidence for her.

Emanuele felt he was ridiculous.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

Perhaps, he really couldn’t hold on to a relationship, what he wanted to hold on to, often slipped away from him in the end.

Just like his family, he had tried so hard to protect them, yet his father and stepmother still passed away.

Now only his sister remained, he could only let his sister marry other Mafia bosses to keep her safe.

But for Isabella, he wasn’t willing to let go.

But now, after going through so much, Emanuele actually had no confidence left.

Isabella had indeed suffered a lot of grievances and hardships with him.

If she just found another man casually, she might not have experienced all this.

She could have become the doctor she wanted to be, married her man, bought an apartment together, and lived a simple but happy life.

But now, because she was with him, Isabella had to go through the pain she hadn’t experienced before.
