Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband (Aria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 297

Chapter 297 Where She Belongs
“Matteo, handle it urgently,” Alessandro demanded, pacing outside the Commissariat de Police as he spoke on the phone with his lawyer friend. “I can’t let Hazel stay in jail.”

“Give me a moment, Alessandro,” Matteo replied calmly. “I’ll see what I can arrange in Monaco to get immediate help.”

The call ended, and Alessandro exhaled heavily, slipping his phone back into his coat pocket. Impatience gnawed at him as he thought about Hazel. She was six months pregnant, and he had promised Aria that he would ensure her safety at any cost.

“Mr. Valentino?” a voice interrupted his thoughts.

Alessandro turned to see a man in a sharp black suit approaching him with an air of authority.

“Good evening,” the man began. “I’m Victor Duval. I’ve been instructed by Lord Alexander to secure his wife’s release.”

Alessandro was slightly taken aback; he hadn’t expected Alexander to send his lawyer to aid Hazel, especially after witnessing his cold indifference toward his wife earlier.

“Mr. Duval,” Alessandro greeted, shaking the man’s hand firmly, but his gaze remained sharp as he studied Victor. “You have the necessary paperwork?!”

Victor nodded confidently. “Everything is in order. I’ll ensure the process is handled as swiftly as possible.”

Alessandro gave a curt nod. “Good. Let’s get this done. Hazel doesn’t belong in there.”

Without wasting another moment, the two men strode purposefully into the Commissariat de Police, their determined steps echoing in the corridor.

Aria had just tucked her infant daughter into bed, while Gia and Maximo were occupied watching television in their room after dinner when Alessandro finally returned.

Hearing the sound of the door, Aria and Camille hurried to greet him, their faces filled with anticipation. But their excitement waned the moment they noticed Alessandro entering the manor alone.

“Where is Hazel?” Aria asked anxiously, her worry evident in her voice.

“Amore mio,” Alessandro began gently, hoping to ease Aria’s concern. “Hazel is fine. She’s been released on bail,” he assured her. Then, his tone hardened slightly as he added, “But she refused to return home, and I couldn’t force her.” His sharp glare shifted toward Alexander, who had just emerged from his room.
