Mafia Fiancé Chose His Lover Over My Dad

My dad is locked up in a cargo container filled with explosives at the docks.

The Genovese family has sent me a video. Apparently, the explosives are set to detonate in 20 minutes.

I quickly call my fiance, Dante Luciano, for help. He's the Don of the Luciano family. As long as he's around, no one will dare to lay a finger on my dad.

When Dante answers my call, he promises that he'll bring his men to rescue Dad right away. But when the convoy is on the way to the container, he claims that he has more urgent things to do, so he turns the car around and leaves.

I drive toward the docks like a madwoman. There, as I watch the countdown on the video ticking down, I keep spamming calls on Dante's phone.

When I call him for the 77th time, Dante finally answers it.

His voice is as cold as ice. "Stop bothering me with such tricks, Lina."

"But my dad will die for real—"

"Then let him die."

Just like that, Dante ends the call.

The countdown strikes zero, resulting in Dad getting blasted into smithereens.

The next thing I know, Dante's mistress, Bianca Magoni, has uploaded a photo to her social media feed. It features Dante, who's in the middle of cutting the steak for her gently.

It turns out that the so-called urgent business Dante has is cutting the steak for his beloved mistress.

My heart dies on the inside. Hence, I fake my death and vanish from Dante's life.

Later on, Dante kneels before me after searching everywhere for me like a madman.

"Lina, please don't abandon me! I'm begging you, please!"

I just smile at him. "You got the wrong person, sir. That's not my name."

Lina's POV

A deafening explosion rang through the air.

The shockwave from the second explosion knocked me to the ground immediately after I dashed into the fire.

My eardrums felt like they had been punctured, leaving a piercing, buzzing noise in my ears.

"Papa! Where are you, Papa?" I screamed.

I ignored my bloody hands and crawled past the burning debris, frantically moving deeper into the wreckage.

Just then, a dozen black SUVs screeched to a stop in front of the fire.

Dante Luciano stepped out of the car with a stormy expression. He frowned when he noticed my bloody appearance and subconsciously reached out for me.

"Lina, you—"

He was interrupted by a shrill scream.

Bianca Magoni hid behind Dante, looking like a spooked cat. She grabbed his arm in a death grip and stammered, "Oh my God! What a huge fire! Are you done causing trouble yet, Lina Vittori?"

She pressed a hand to her chest. Tears rolled down her cheeks as she continued, "I just saw your Padre at the grocery store this morning. How could the Genovese family have
