Revenge After Divorce by Black Rose

Chapter 0075

ELODIE

After Nick finished telling us about Faren, I looked at James hoping to hear something hopeful come out of his mouth. For the first time I was hoping that the man would do something to protect our family. But as usual, he said nothing about his daughter and pretended like we didn’t just hear what she did.

Underground, in the business world and all those who mattered knew of Elodie the Don’s princess and what she was capable of. For a while I went to important meetings with James.

Just by hearing my name and the people trembled. Business boomed and I was glad my husband didn’t have a problem with me being feared more than he was. I was okay with that but sometimes, I wished he would take charge and show me what he could do. But he never did, and I never stopped hoping

This time as well, I hoped he was going to burst out of those doors and go looking for his daughter and put her in her place. Tell her to stop messing with my son or Olivia and her son, it seemed I was going to have to be Elodie the mafia princess once more.
