He Married Another So I Accepted My Arranged Husband Chapter 07
Salvatore called me again and again.
None of the calls went through.
Then Marco, Northstar’s director of operations, called him.
“You went too far this time, Sal. Indigo married someone else.”
“And several of our core clients just sent termination notices. They were all her accounts.”
When Salvatore pulled up one of the circle’s private news feeds, the top story was a photo of me and Desmond Bellandi signing our marriage papers.
He stared at the photo, refreshing the page over and over.
It was still there.
Below it were hundreds of thousands of shares and thousands of comments.
*Desmond Bellandi got married?*
*The Bellandi Family must have approved it quickly. The bride has to be powerful.*
*Both advisers are in the photo. This marriage has already been formally recognized.*
The Bellandi Family controlled several major ports in New York and ran a number of legitimate shipping businesses. Desmond was the current head of the family, though he lived in Lugano year-round to handle their European affairs.
It didn’t take long for someone to dig up my background.
*Indigo Conti? She’s the only daughter of the Conti Family, their sole heir.*
*No wonder the Bellandi Family acknowledged the marriage so publicly.*
*She’s also the original systems architect for Northstar Logistics. Ferraro really let her go?*
For years, I had rarely attended Family functions. Most people knew me only as Indigo, the engineer from Northstar, not by my last name.
Salvatore’s hand trembled as he held his phone.
He couldn’t bring himself to keep reading the flood of congratulations.
He told himself it had to be a stunt, fake news I’d planted just to get back at him.
