Chapter 1 The Fallen Don

The night hung heavy over the city, its streets cloaked in a thick shroud of darkness. Detective Marco Rossi stood at the edge of the crime scene, the flashing lights of police cars casting an eerie glow on the surrounding buildings. The smell of stale cigarettes and gasoline lingered in the air, mingling with the metallic tang of blood.

Rossi pulled his coat tighter around him, the chill of the night seeping into his bones. He surveyed the scene before him, taking in the chaos that had unfolded in the heart of the city's underworld. The body of Giovanni Moretti, the notorious Don of the Moretti crime family, lay sprawled on the pavement, a pool of crimson spreading beneath him.

As Rossi approached, he could see the fear etched on the faces of the bystanders, their whispers hushed as they watched the detectives work. He knew that Moretti's death would send shockwaves through the criminal underworld, setting off a chain reaction of violence and retribution.

Rossi knelt beside the body, his gloved hand reaching out to touch the cold, lifeless flesh. He searched for any sign of the killer, his trained eye picking up on the subtle details that others might overlook. But the streets remained silent, the only sound the distant wail of sirens.

As Rossi rose to his feet, he felt a weight settle in the pit of his stomach. He knew that the road ahead would be fraught with danger, but he was determined to see justice served, no matter the cost. With a grim resolve, he turned his gaze towards the city skyline, knowing that this was only the beginning of a long and perilous journey into the heart of darkness

Looking at the divorce papers my lips curled up into a mocking smile. 'How big fool I am? How can I think that he will give a chance to this marriage? How can I forget that I was nothing more a tool in his eyes to vent his anger until his beloved Tara is back. Since, she was back, how can he let me stay there?' "After you will sign these papers, you will receive 100 million dollars as alimony." the lawyer added. Because of his words, I came back to my senses took the pen from him, and signed the name. I have also gotten exhausted from this marriage both physically and mentally. Even though I had wanted my child to be born into a complete family, I didn't want my child to have a stepmother and live miserably like me for the rest of his life. After taking the papers from my hand, the lawyer gave me the bank card, turned around, and was about to leave when he paused at the door. He then turned around and added, "Mr. Carter said that he hoped that you won't pester him, or you have to bear the consequences." The lawyer's words were like a knife stabbing in my heart, but I still nodded. Anyway, I also don't plan to have anything to do with him anymore. I just want to live a good life with my children. After the lawyer left, the ward fell into silence. I placed my hand on my belly and said to my children, "Baby, I am sorry, Mommy can't give you a complete family! But I promise you, I will do my best to give the love of both mother and father." 'As for giving one of my child, I will never do that. They are my babies and my alone.
