The Don’s Regretful Betrayal

I had been in a secret relationship with Antonio Armani, the heir to the powerful Armani Family, for three years when I discovered I was pregnant.

At first, I saw genuine happiness on his face, and not long after, the future Don slipped a ring onto my finger.

I thought all the years I had spent waiting for him had finally meant something. I thought Antonio had finally chosen me, not as a woman kept in the shadows, but as the woman who would stand beside him when he took his father's place.
