Chapter 14 - Maeve Steps Into The Marchetti Estate As Guest

The following afternoon, a sleek black town car pulled up through the heavy wrought-iron security gates of the Marchetti estate.
Maeve Donnelly stepped out, gazing in absolute awe at the sprawling limestone manor, manicured gardens, and sparkling fountains.
Mr. Hart stood at the double doors waiting to greet her, his expression warmer than the cold welcome he had given Sienna days earlier.
“Welcome to the Marchetti residence, Miss Donnelly; Mr. Marchetti is expecting you in his private study,” Hart announced politely.
Maeve walked through the grand entryway, marveling at the priceless artwork, crystal chandeliers, and polished marble floors.
She had spent years cleaning houses for wealthy elites who treated her like furniture, but entering this estate felt entirely different.
Elias rose from his oak desk as she entered the study, offering a respectful nod instead of his usual intimidating mafia glare.

“I trust your brother’s transfer to Johns Hopkins went smoothly this morning, Maeve?” Elias asked, gesturing toward a leather armchair.
“The medical transport team arrived at dawn; Leo is already in Baltimore receiving top-tier care,” Maeve answered, her voice filled with deep gratitude.
