Chapter 7 - The Mafia Boss Walked Away From His ThroneAlessandro lost almost everything.
Millions.
Properties.
Businesses.
Power.
Connections.
The old empire disappeared.
And strangely, he looked happier.
He sold the mansion.
Transferred legitimate companies.
Established a foundation.
Tobias became its first director.
I reopened my own small business.
Sophia returned to school.
She started therapy.
Not because she was broken.
Because she had carried too many adult secrets.
Alessandro apologized to me.
“I should have protected you.”
“You did.”
“I failed.”
“You were lied to.”
“I still made choices.”
“Yes.”
He looked at me.
“Do you hate me?”
I shook my head.
“No.”
“Why?”
“Because you finally chose the right thing.”
He smiled.
Then asked:
“Can I choose you too?”
My heart stopped.
But I wasn't ready.
“Slowly.”
May you like
He nodded.
“Slowly.”
