Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband (Aria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 417

Chapter 417 Table Has Turned
"Boss, the signal is getting stronger and coming from that house," Mark said, his voice tense with urgency, as he pointed toward a big house at the end of the lane. Leonardo wasted no time and hurried with his army to reach the house, his heart pounding loudly in his chest. Every second felt like an eternity as he dashed toward the entrance, driven by the need to find Sofia and ensure her safety.

As they approached the house, Leonardo's instincts went into overdrive. The eerie silence sent shivers down his spine, and a sense of foreboding washed over him. Danger lurked within those walls, and he braced himself for the unknown.

Gesturing to his men, Leonardo signaled for them to proceed with caution, not making a sound as they searched for any possible entrance. However, their efforts proved fruitless, as every opening was sealed shut, leaving them no choice but to break down the door forcefully.

Mark heeded Leonardo's signal, forcefully breaking the door, and the team swiftly entered, their eyes scanning the scene that unfolded before them. A surge of anger pulsed through Leonardo's veins as he saw Emma standing menacingly beside Sofia, who was bound to a chair, her helplessness evident. The sight of Lana by Emma's side fueled his fury, realizing the betrayal that had taken place against him and his pregnant wife.

His heart clenched at the thought of Sofia suffering due to their treacherous plans. Determination mixed with rage, and Leonardo's focus was solely on safeguarding Sofia and bringing those responsible to justice.

Emma's actions escalated the already perilous situation. She retrieved a gun from her bag and aimed it at Sofia's head, her malevolence on full display. Panic surged in Leonardo's heart, and he couldn't let his emotions get the best of him.

"WAIT! Don't do anything stupid," Leonardo's urgent plea filled the room, his voice laced with desperation. He couldn't bear to see any harm come to Sofia, the woman he loved with all his heart.

"Don't dare to come near. Otherwise, I will shoot her," Emma's chilling threat rang out, the malice in her words clear as day.

Despite his fear, Leonardo managed to stay composed. He motioned to his men, instructing them to take a step back and lower their weapons, hoping to buy some time and keep the situation from escalating further.

"What do you want, Emma? I am here to fulfill your every demand. Just leave her. I am ready to do anything in return," he offered, willing to make any sacrifice to secure Sofia's safety.

But Emma's response was callous and devoid of trust. "I don't trust you, Leonardo, and I know how heartless a Mafia King can be. I will not leave Sofia because I want to be alive; she is my confirmed token to live," she sneered shamelessly, her laughter a twisted display of her cold-hearted nature.

Leonardo's heart swelled with disgust at the sight of Emma's heartless demeanor. The mere thought that a mother, even a stepmother, could plot such a demonic act filled him with revulsion. Despite his fear for Sofia's safety, he knew he had to keep his voice calm and composed to distract Emma from carrying out her deadly intentions.

"No, I can assure you that nobody will harm you. I will protect you myself. Just leave Sofia. Please, she is pregnant. I will give you everything and make sure that you will leave this place safely. Believe me. I am giving you my word," Leonardo tried to reason with Emma, attempting to appeal to her rational side.
