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 42: MEETING AT MIDNIGHT?

Charles, too, was startled and flinched alongside Mr. Hans. Suddenly, Mr. Hans spanked his head and scolded him, "Why are you here?! Are you going to kill me with a heart attack?"

Charles furrowed his brows and sat carefully, confusion in his eyes. He had been in the living room for hours, yet this older man hadn't noticed him, and now he was being blamed and spanked by Mr. Hans for his carelessness. On second thought, Charles reminded himself to respect elders, or else he'd face countless lousy luck throughout his life—a principle from his mother, 'Why does being respectful mean being treated unfairly?'

"I was here all along; I just gave you a handkerchief, and now you're angry at me," Charles said in a low voice.

'Oh really? I haven't noticed him, damn,' Mr. Hans thought while staring at Charles.
