The air in the penthouse turned suffocating the moment Adriana read the headline.
“Business Tycoon Damien Moretti Announces Surprise Engagement to Mystery Woman.”
Her hands tightened around the phone as she stared at the image below the bold letters.
It wasn’t just any woman.
It was Isabella DeLuca—the daughter of one of the most influential crime families in New York.
A chill ran down Adriana’s spine.
She turned to Marco. His jaw was clenched, his eyes dark with something dangerous.
“This isn’t just about making a move in business,” she murmured.
Marco exhaled sharply. “No. It’s about power. And about you.”
Luca scoffed, arms crossed. “Moretti didn’t just pick some random woman for this stunt. Isabella has a history with Marco.”
Adriana’s gaze snapped to Marco. “History?”
Marco
