The Maid’s Toddler Found the Mafia Boss Bleeding in His Office—What She Did Next Shocked His Entire Family Adeline Boudreaux was two years and ten months old when she found Vincent Castellano bleeding behind his desk. The door to his office was half open. She pushed it wider with the nose of the stuffed green alligator she dragged everywhere by one arm. “Uncle Vin?”

“Drop the guns,” Camille shouted, her voice echoing over the roar of the helicopter outside.

Salvatore stared up at the maid in the torn uniform.

“Who the hell are you?” he demanded.

“I’m the woman who threw Dominic off a balcony,” Camille replied coldly. “I suggest you listen to me.”

Salvatore’s men hesitated, their weapons wavering.

Vincent didn't waste the opportunity.

Moving with terrifying speed despite his injuries, Vincent closed the distance to the foyer. He grabbed Salvatore by the throat and slammed him against a marble pillar, jamming the barrel of his own gun directly beneath the old man's chin.

“Tell them to drop the weapons, Sal,” Vincent whispered. “Or I paint this pillar with your brains.”

Salvatore gasped, his cane clattering to the floor.

He raised a shaking hand. “Drop them,” he choked out to his men.

The six guards slowly lowered their rifles and kicked them away. Marcus descended the stairs, swiftly kicking the weapons entirely out of reach and zip-tying the men’s hands.

Vincent kept his grip on Salvatore’s throat.

“The helicopter,” Salvatore rasped. “They’re getting away.”

“No,” Vincent said smoothly. “They aren’t.”

The sound of the helicopter shifted. It wasn’t flying away. It was hovering low over the driveway.

Suddenly, a blinding spotlight snapped on, flooding the foyer with intense white light.

A voice boomed over a megaphone from outside.

“THIS IS THE FBI. THE BUILDING IS SURROUNDED. DROP YOUR WEAPONS AND COME OUT WITH YOUR HANDS UP.”

Salvatore’s eyes widened in sheer panic. “The FBI?”

Vincent let go of Salvatore’s neck, stepping back and straightening his ruined shirt.

He reached into his pocket and pulled out the original photograph of Camille and Dominic—the one Marcus had found by the cleaning cart.

He turned it over.

On the back, written in neat, precise handwriting, was a federal badge number.

Vincent looked up at Camille on the balcony.

“You didn’t just handle Dominic’s books, did you?” Vincent asked softly.

Camille slowly lowered her gun and rested her hands on the railing.

“I told you I was an accountant,” Camille said. “I worked for the IRS Criminal Investigation Division. I was undercover, building the RICO case against your brother.”

Marcus stared at her, completely stunned. “You’re a fed?”

“Was,” Camille corrected. “When Dominic found out I was pregnant, the agency tried to pull me out. But the Morettis compromised the extraction. I had to disappear on my own to protect Addie.”

She walked down the stairs, her eyes locked on Vincent.

“When I realized Addie was your child, I didn’t know what to do,” Camille admitted. “You were a Castellano. I thought you would be just like Dominic. So I took a job as a maid in your house to watch you. To see what kind of man you really were.”

“And?” Vincent asked, his heart pounding.

“And I saw a man who let a two-year-old interrupt his meetings to talk about frogs,” Camille smiled through her tears. “I saw a man who protected his people.”

The front doors were suddenly filled with armed tactical FBI agents.

They swarmed the foyer, hauling Salvatore Moretti and his men to their feet.

An older FBI director in a trench coat walked in, stopping in front of Camille.

“Agent Boudreaux,” the director said, nodding respectfully. “Good to see you alive.”

“Director,” Camille nodded.

“We got the signal from your emergency button,” the director said. “We have the Morettis. And we’ll take that red ledger now.”

Vincent tensed. If the feds took the ledger, his entire family empire would crumble.

Camille looked at the director.

Then she looked at Vincent.

She reached into her pocket.

She pulled out a thick red book and handed it to the director.
