In His Grasp: A Mafia Romance

Chapter 141: Emanuele Suspects Her

Chapter 141: Emanuele Suspects Her

Emotions are easily transmitted, and at this moment, Isabella was affected by Emanuele's mood.She felt a bit uneasy.

Emanuele took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down a bit. Look at him, scaring Isabella likethat.

Watching Isabella's inexplicably worried expression, Emanuele reached out and gently touched herhair.

"It's okay. Some unfortunate situations have arisen, but I'll handle them."

"Okay."

"You go to sleep."

Seeing Emanuele about to leave, Isabella didn't quite understand. He had come in such a hurrytoday and was leaving just as hastily.

"Aren't you staying here tonight?"

"No, there are still things I need to sort out."

"About me?"

Isabella was smart; she figured out from Emanuele's actions that all these troubles were related toher.

Emanuele nodded. Bending down, he planted a kiss on Isabella's forehead. "Isabella, I trust you. Ihope you won't disappoint me."

During this time spent with Isabella, Emanuele had fallen in love with her. But now, with Fredericksuddenly sending such a message and a photo of Isabella's back tattoo, Emanuele couldn't help buthave doubts.

Yet, he still believed that he hadn't misjudged her. He just needed to investigate thoroughly.

After leaving the apartment, Emanuele immediately showed his phone to Phillip. "What informationdid you find in the message he sent?"

"Is she his granddaughter?" Phillip's eyes widened in astonishment. He was already surprised whenhe saw the photo, but reading this message left him even more shocked.

"But I asked you to investigate Isabella before. Her background is clean-her father passed awayearly, her mother married my father, and Sophia's identity has no issues."

Is that so? Phillip wasn't entirely sure.

"But, boss, I still find it hard to believe. If the lady is just an ordinary person, why would Fredericksay something like leaving Chicago as long as she's handed over to him?"

Yes, if Isabella were just an ordinary girl, why would Frederick say such things? After losing somany people, wouldn't he want to establish himself in Chicago?

Now, he suddenly says he'll disappear if Isabella is handed over. It's eerie, too eerie!

Emanuele couldn't figure out this point either. He remained silent, lighting a cigarette.

His emotions were extremely agitated at this moment. He wanted to kill someone, but he couldn't doanything now, only temporarily relieving his stress by smoking.

However, he still felt restless inside.

Cigarette after cigarette, his brain felt a throbbing pain.

"Boss, I still think it's not that simple. If I investigate again, I'll look into the lady's father's side thistime."

Previously, Phillip thought that Isabella's father had been dead for many years, and she had nocontact with her father's relatives. There wasn't much to investigate. But now, hearing about this,Phillip thought it was necessary to look into it again.

What if there really is a problem? If the lady has an issue, wouldn't the boss be in danger?

After a moment of contemplation, Emanuele nodded, allowing Phillip to proceed with theinvestigation.

He also wanted to know what the relationship was between Isabella and Frederick. Frederick wentto the extent of leaving just to get Isabella, even sending him a photo of Isabella's back tattoo. Washe trying to imply a close relationship with Isabella, having such a photo?

Isabella couldn't possibly be his granddaughter. He had only one granddaughter, currently inFrance. They had found her, but unfortunately, she knew nothing about Frederick's whereabouts. Itwas a pity.

Could it be that just because they captured his granddaughter, Frederick started spoutingnonsense, claiming Isabella was his granddaughter?

Thinking about it, Frederick's granddaughter was twenty years old, and Isabella was twenty-two.The age gap between them wasn't significant.

After Emanuele left, Isabella couldn't find any peace of mind. Emanuele's appearance was toosudden, and he left in a hurry, leaving her bewildered.

She had no idea what was going on with Emanuele, but his state today was obviously off.

Recalling Emanuele's first question when he appeared before her, Isabella paused. Suddenly, sheunderstood something. Emanuele was suspecting her, suspecting that she was colluding with hisenemies?

Oh God, with her simple and clean background, living a regular life before meeting Emanuele, whatdid he think of her? Colluding with the head of a criminal organization?

Thinking of this, Isabella's initial panic turned into anger.

She sent messages and called Evelyn, wanting to discuss this matter with her. Because apart fromIsabella, Evelyn and Emanuele were the only ones who knew about the tattoo on her back.

Unexpectedly, no one answered when she called Evelyn.

Glancing at the time, it was already eleven in the evening. Could Evelyn be asleep at this hour?

Isabella gave up on calling Evelyn. She lay on the bed, unsure of her current feelings. She didn'tknow if Frederick had said something to Emanuele or if Emanuele had found some evidence,suspecting her connection with Frederick. Hence, he came urgently to confirm.

If Emanuele really didn't trust her, would he kill her?

For some reason, Isabella felt that even if Emanuele liked her body, once he confirmed her betrayal,he would surely kill her.

She hadn't betrayed him, but she didn't know how Emanuele judged this matter.

What if he didn't listen to her explanation?

Isabella was distressed. There wasn't much emotion between them in the first place, and now, withthis incident, their relationship became even more fragmented.

Their marriage was already different from that of ordinary people, lacking trust. Now, with this addedcomplication, Isabella didn't know if one day Emanuele would burst in with a gun and kill her.

These past few days, Isabella stayed at home, not in the mood to go out, and Emanuele didn'treturn.

Isabella wanted to clarify everything, but with Emanuele not coming back, she couldn'tcommunicate with him.

"Tony, Harry, do you think I have a connection with Emanuele's enemies?" Isabella asked them.novelbin

They both shook their heads. They had been with Isabella for so long, monitoring her every move.They knew what kind of person she was.

However, that text from Frederick was indeed too strange. At this time, being cautious and carefulwas never wrong, so they couldn't be sure.

As for Emanuele, he quickly gathered all the information about Isabella, including details about herfather. Isabella's father was Irish, living in Chicago, an ordinary employee at an insurance company.He had a very common and ordinary life until one day he tragically passed away in a car accident,leaving Isabella and Sophia behind.

So, it seemed Isabella had no connection with Frederick?

However, when Emanuele discovered that Frederick had also spent some time in Ireland in hisearly years, Emanuele's eyebrows furrowed tightly. Damn it, could it be that Frederick had someconnection with Isabella's father?
