Let Me Go My Mafia Husband (Aria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 351

Chapter 351 He Cares
Sofia's disappointment dissipated as she entered the bathroom, the cool water splashing on her face like a gentle wake-up call. With renewed vigor, she hastily freshened up, determined to seize the moment. As she walked down the hall, her footsteps seemed lighter, her heart was sad and missing her husband.

To her surprise, the gloomy corridors led her to a heartwarming sight. There he was, Leonardo, seated at the breakfast table with his laptop open before him. His typically unreadable demeanor softened, and his tea sat neglected, growing colder with each passing moment.

"You haven't left for your work?" Sofia inquired, taking a seat beside him, her smile radiant and genuine. It had been an entire week since they had the chance to share breakfast together, and her joy couldn't be contained.

Leonardo chuckled, playfully teasing her, "Why, baby girl? Are you not happy to see me?" He knew all too well the happiness he brought to her by being there, breaking his routine for this special occasion.

Sofia quickly clarified, "No, I didn't mean that. I am pleasantly surprised to see you at the breakfast table. Otherwise, you always leave for your office before I wake up." There was a tinge of sadness in her sigh, as she often felt a longing to have more of these cherished moments together.

"I can't do anything about that, baby girl. Because... you know... work is God," he responded with a touch of jest, his laughter resonating through the room. In that moment, she felt a sense of contentment seeing him in such a good mood, as if the weight of the world had momentarily lifted from his shoulders.

As they exchanged playful banter, Sofia felt a surge of courage welling up inside her. It was the right time to discuss her own aspirations, her desire to rejoin school, and pursue her dreams.

"I want to ask you about... Can I go back to join my school? I want to complete my course," Sofia's voice trembled with a mix of fear and hope as she broached the subject, unsure of how Leonardo would react.

Leonardo, his attention momentarily diverted from the glow of his laptop, turned his gaze towards Sofia. His intense eyes studied her for a few lingering seconds, his thoughts seemingly lost in contemplation.

Finally, he spoke, his voice measured yet filled with understanding, "Of course, baby. I didn't know that you had dropped your course in the middle. Otherwise, I would have made arrangements for you to continue your education earlier."

A surge of relief washed over Sofia, causing a smile to bloom on her lips. The weight of uncertainty lifted from her shoulders as Leonardo's words offered reassurance. Gratitude colored her voice as she exclaimed, "Thank you so much! I truly appreciate it."

Leonardo's attention returned to his laptop momentarily before he looked back at Sofia, his expression now serious. "I will speak with Domenico and ensure that all the necessary formalities are completed. Let him know which school you want to attend, and I will make certain that Mark enhances your safety. They will be by your side at all times, even inside the classroom. I won't take any chances with your well-being," his tone carried a resolute determination.

A wave of mixed emotions washed over Sofia, her happiness tainted by the realization that her life as the wife of a Mafia king would never be ordinary.

With the help of Domenico, Sofia secured admission to her old school and embarked on her journey to reclaim her education. Determined not to miss a beat, she attended her classes diligently, making up for lost time through extra studying. She immersed herself in the familiar rhythms of academia, a sanctuary of knowledge amidst the chaos of her life.

Yet, on her first day back at school after her marriage, a mix of nervousness and anticipation consumed Sofia. Once accustomed to traveling by public transport, she now found herself seated in the luxurious confines of a Mercedes, followed closely by a car filled with vigilant bodyguards. The attention they garnered as they arrived at the school was palpable, and Sofia felt the weight of every gaze fixed upon her.

Students and teachers alike regarded her with curiosity and awe, their eyes widening as if she had materialized from another world. This scrutiny only heightened Sofia's unease, for she was unaccustomed to being the center of attention. In the hallways and classrooms, whispers and stares trailed her like shadows, leaving her feeling vulnerable and exposed.
