Dangerous Secrets: My Mafia Stepbrother

At that moment, Emanuele’s hardness pressed against Isabella’s entrance, and seeing her eager gaze, he didn’t hesitate to enter her. The two entwined deeply, sighing in satisfaction.

Then, Emanuele began his thrusts. Although Isabella had been initially active, she became passive, tossed and turned by Emanuele, and multiple orgasms caused her body to convulse uncontrollably.

Too wild! This was the only thought in Isabella’s mind. Afterward, she lay exhausted in Emanuele’s arms. Seeing Emanuele still so energetic, Isabella began to doubt the sex education she had received. Why was Emanuele so spirited, while she was so tired? This man’s physical endurance was truly remarkable! Isabella couldn’t help but exclaim.

Emanuele even had the energy to take Isabella to the bathroom, bathe her, dry her off, and then carry her to bed. “Darling, you don’t need to work. Sleep in as long as you want.”

Isabella knew she could sleep for a long time now, but she didn’t like to disrupt her body clock. Getting up at nine every morning was already late for her, and she didn’t allow herself to sleep in any later. She couldn’t help but tell Emanuele about Evelyn’s situation.

“Emanuele, do you know what’s going on with Evelyn? Why does she look so strange lately?”

“Has something been bothering her recently?” Emanuele asked. “If her parents are fine, it means William shouldn’t be contacting her. If I were William, I would definitely use Evelyn’s parents to threaten her.” Emanuele knew the kind of people they were, experts at targeting a person’s weak spots. If Evelyn’s parents were still safe, it meant William hadn’t set his sights on Evelyn. Moreover, he felt Evelyn was of no use to William anymore. Living with Isabella and having everything provided for by his people, Evelyn had little value to William. Of course, there was a possibility he liked Evelyn, but Emanuele didn’t think William put much stock in emotions. If he really cared, he wouldn’t have left Evelyn in the apartment to be found by his men.

Isabella felt a bit relieved at Emanuele’s words, but she still couldn’t understand why Evelyn had been acting so poorly lately. “Why is Evelyn feeling so down these days?”

“Perhaps she misses her parents? Although she’s safe living with us, she’s not as free. Why don’t you ask her if she wants to go back to her parents? If she does, I’ll have someone take her and arrange for their protection,” Emanuele suggested. In fact, Emanuele hadn’t shared his inner thoughts with Isabella. After thinking it over, he felt Evelyn staying here posed a risk, mainly to Isabella. Evelyn was Isabella’s best friend, and she wouldn’t hurt her, but what if William secretly found Evelyn and confided in her, asking for help? Evelyn was so pure and kind, and she once liked William so much. Maybe she would accidentally let something slip. From the perspective of protecting Isabella’s safety, he still felt Evelyn shouldn’t continue living with Isabella.

Isabella didn’t delve as deeply as Emanuele, but thought his suggestion made sense. Although Evelyn was her best friend, living with her and getting to know so many strangers, despite her parents being in Chicago, she couldn’t live with them. Evelyn must miss her parents, right?

“Could her recent low spirits be because she misses her parents?” Isabella asked.

“That’s the most likely reason,” Emanuele said. “Isabella, why don’t you talk to Evelyn tomorrow and see what her plans are.”

“Okay, I’ll talk to her.”

After Isabella got up, Emanuele had disappeared. During this time, Emanuele had resumed his busy schedule, not only searching for William but also managing his company. He was working hard to clear his name in the industry. With the police increasingly keeping an eye on them, their actions were often constrained. But once they were in the clear, they would have more freedom.

Isabella had breakfast with Evelyn. She noticed that Evelyn’s mood seemed to have improved. She remembered Emanuele’s suggestion from the previous night and asked Evelyn, “Evelyn, do you want to go back to your parents’ home?”

Evelyn was startled for a moment, then shook her head, “I don’t want to.” Her eyes held a hint of fear.

Why did Isabella suddenly say that? Was she trying to drive her away? No, no, she hadn’t figured out a solution yet. She couldn’t leave. Last night, Evelyn had retrieved the sachet of powder from the trash. She couldn’t poison Isabella, but she also didn’t dare to discard the powder. Whatif it could be useful? Perhaps she still had some other use for it? Evelyn had spent a restless night, feeling the pain of having only two days left. Now hearing Isabella’s words, she was taken aback. She immediately said she didn’t want to leave. She truly couldn’t leave! If she stayed here for three more days, maybe she could figure something out. But if she went back now and William found she had no value, and discovered his lead, he would surely kill her and her parents. No, she couldn’t go back.

“Isabella, I don’t want to go back. I just want to stay here with you,” Evelyn held Isabella’s hand, trembling all over, looking extremely fearful.

Evelyn’s agitated display also scared Isabella. She had only asked if she wanted to leave, why did Evelyn look so terrified? Was it because she thought it was more dangerous outside than inside? “Evelyn, if you want to stay, then stay. I won’t make you leave. I thought you were feeling down these days because you missed your parents. I discussed it with Emanuele, and suggested sending you back home, and arranging for some guards to protect you and your parents.”

Evelyn’s eyelashes quivered, and with Isabella’s words, she gradually calmed down. Thankfully, as long as Isabella didn’t drive her away, everything would be okay.

“Evelyn, I don’t want to go back. I’m afraid my parents would also be targeted. They… I don’t know what’s happening to them, so things are still calm. I don’t want them to take any risks,” Evelyn said.

“I understand,” Isabella hugged Evelyn, “It’s okay, you don’t want to leave, so just stay here. Once Emanuele catches William, we’ll be safe.”

Isabella felt a twinge of guilt. If it weren’t for marrying Emanuele, William wouldn’t have tried to use Evelyn to get close to her. Evelyn wouldn’t have been hurt. She used to be so cheerful, and now she seemed so depressed. It was so pitiful. Nearby, Elisa saw this scene and wore a puzzled expression.
