Lured Into The Mafia's Den

Draymond Martinez, a mysterious New York tycoon, rarely appears in public due to his obsessive-compulsive disorder. Draymond is the CEO of Martinez Corporation and the legendary mafia don of the ‘Jade Dragon Triad.’ Living in seclusion, he often grapples with inner turmoil when his OCD takes control. His mother’s tragic and untimely passing drove him to find justice for her. Suddenly, a deadly ambush pushed him to the edge of death. Just when all hope seemed lost, fate intervened, and Zarina Celesti Vasquez, a renowned fashion designer, came as his savior. *** “Marry me, Zarina,” he begged, desperation in his eyes. He instantly regretted his boldness, muttering, “I think I’m becoming straightforward.” Zarina blinked rapidly, her eyes widening, and she stood with her hands on her hips. “No way. I don’t want to marry a man who sees marriage as just another business venture.” She turned her back to him and flipped her long black hair, making her rejection crystal clear. Draymond cleared his throat, attempting to persuade her. “I need a wife,” he stated seriously. Zarina burst into laughter, finding the situation absurd. “Mr. Martinez, I think you need a psychologist to check your brain because it seems you’re struggling to understand my simple condition.” Feeling insulted, Draymond clenched his teeth. “I’ll pay you a substantial amount for this business marriage, and I’ll be a great husband who will warm your bed every night!”

CHAPTER 140: ALEXA’S PAST

As Keno delved deeper into his investigation, he discovered that Alexa's father had been a successful businessman, but his fortunes took a downturn after he divorced his wife—who wasn't Alexa's mother. It turned out that Alexa's mother was actually Alexander's mistress.

Intrigued by these revelations, Keno delved further into the past of Alexa's parents. He uncovered that Alexa's parents had been high school sweethearts. However, due to Alexander's wealthy background, he was pressured into marrying the daughter of a business partner, Sheena Kingston.

Before Alexander's marriage to Sheena, he and Alexa's real mother, Christina, had a child together. Tragically, the baby girl was stolen from the hospital shortly after birth, adding a layer of mystery to Alexa's family history.

"That was tragic! It seems I accidentally solved a problem in the past because of this one, huh?" Keno muttered to himself, reflecting on the unfolding events.
