Married to Mafia Boss novel Chapter 103

Chapter 103

Alia POV

The next day, when I woke up, Marco was still sitting by the window reading the newspaper.

It was drizzling outside today, and he seemed to carry an added layer of melancholy.

“You’re awake,” he said, as always, turning to look at me with a gentle voice whenever I woke up.

I nodded.

Unconsciously, I thought back to our wild night yesterday, and my delicate, pink face flushed with embarrassment again.

He got up and walked over, suddenly grabbing my foot.

I was startled and instinctively tried to pull away, but then I heard Marco say, “Let me check on your injury. How is it?”

“Oh, I mumbled softly. So he was just checking on the injury from yesterday. I had overthought things again.

Marco pressed a little harder. ‘Does it still hurt?”

I shook my head. “Not at all. Thank you!”

Marco let go of me and said, “Go freshen up. I’ll wait for you to have breakfast.”

He took Lola out with him to wait for me. Such an ordinary day, yet I felt deeply content.

After so many years, I finally found the feeling of home.

Finally, there was someone willing to stay by my side day and night, not asking for anything in return, just simply living life with me.

Watching his back as he walked away, my lips curved slightly upward, my eyes filled

I with sweet smiles.

At the breakfast table, there was, as always, a variety of nutritious and delicately prepared food. I was in a good mood and ate more than usual.

Marco had put down his chopsticks early, silently watching me.

And Marco, he was willing to be the one to care for me for a lifetime.

“I’m full,” I said, looking up at him with a bright smile that seemed to add a touch of warmth to the chilly weather.

“Mm,” he responded, unable to take his eyes off me. After a long pause, he finally said, “I have to go on a business trip for a few days.”

Another business trip!

A sense of disappointment welled up inside me, though I didn’t show it. I smiled at him and said, “Go ahead. I’ll have Lola to keep me company at home.”

Our gazes simultaneously turned to Lola, who was squatting on a chair. Lola barked twice in perfect timing, as if saying she would take good care of Mommy.

I picked Lola up and patted her head. “Baby, from now on, you’ll have to change how you address him. Call him Daddy, or you can call him Dad.”

After saying that, I looked at Marco, blinking playfully, and asked, “Can Lola call you that?”

“Of course!‘ That was what Marco thought in his heart, but he didn’t say anything. He just nodded lightly, his calm expression making it hard to tell what he was thinking.

I wasn’t about to let him off so easily and pressed, “Say something-

With me being so insistent, Marco had no choice but to relent. “Sure.

“Mm,” I smiled contentedly, let go of Lola, and prepared to tidy up before heading to work.

When I returned to the room, Marco came in as well, holding a tie in his hand,

was overthinking or worrying about something trivial again.

He let out a soft sigh, pulled off the tie he hadn’t yet tied properly, walked over to me, and looked firmly into my eyes. In a gentle voice, he said, “Don’t worry, I’ll be back soon.”

Hearing this, I smiled, realizing Marco had

But I didn’t clarify. I just nodded with a faint smile, then reached out to take the tie from his hand and gently began to tie it for him.

I just wanted to tie your tie for you once.

“From now on… let me help you with your tie,” I said softly, my face flushed as I kept my head down.

Since last night, it felt like I had become a different

person.

I was no longer entangled in past grievances and finally willing to face our relationship head–on. Marco was surprised by this change in me, but more than surprise, an endless wave of joy rippled through his heart, reaching the deepest parts of him.

This feeling was something Marco had never experienced before. So fresh, yet so unforgettable.

I was still carefully tying the knot, quietly waiting for his response. With my head lowered, all he could see were my thick lashes fluttering like little fans, as if beckoning for his reply.

Marco couldn’t hold back any longer-

He suddenly lifted my delicate chin with his hand, leaned down, and kissed

1. me.

The kiss came so suddenly and fiercely that I stiffened for a moment. But unlike before, I didn’t shrink away or resist. Instead, I responded to him clumsily.

A mutual kiss, long and sweet, until our breaths grew ragged, and only then did we part.

Marco caressed my soft cheek, his slightly curved lips moving to my ear as he whispered, “Alright, tie it for a lifetime.”

His voice was hoarse and low, like polished gravel, carrying a warm breath.

I couldn’t help but shiver, quickly lowering my head to hide my flushed face, pretending to focus on tying the tie.

But my hands were trembling a little.

I don’t know how long it took, but I finally finished tying the knot. Letting out a long breath, I looked

up and playfully winked at Marco.

Marco was amused by my expression and shook his head indulgently. Then, he quickly planted a light, fleeting kiss on my rosy cheek.

“Thank you, Mrs. Vittorio,” he said.

“You’re welcome, Mr. Vittorio,” I replied with a smile.

At work today, the atmosphere in the office was completely different.

I suddenly learned that the sales department manager, Betti, had been fired by the company, and the position of sales manager was now Trant.

Everyone’s eyes turned to me–some with envy, others with jealousy but they all came over to chat and build rapport with me.

They kept calling me ‘Mrs. Vittorio,” which made me extremely uncomfortable.

Yes, I am Mrs. Vittorio, but in the company, I’m just a small salesperson. I didn’t want to be addressed like that at all.

I had been worried about this exact situation when I didn’t want to reveal my relationship with Marco, Now feared.

Jessica said excitedly, ‘Alia, with Berti fired, you’re the most likely candidate for the sales manager position in our department.”
