Vittorio’s chest heaved violently, a suffocating tightness gripping his lungs. He choked on his own breath, leaving him momentarily speechless.

I looked at him without emotion, “Vittorio, if my love for you was worth a hundred points, you have deducted every single one of them over these years.”

  • A Heart in Ruins   Chapter 11

    Vittorio’s chest heaved violently, a suffocating tightness gripping his lungs. He choked on his own breath, leaving him momentarily speechless.I looked at him without emotion, “Vittorio, if my love for you was worth a hundred points, you have deducted every single one of them over these years.”I began listing off all his wrongdoings in detail, “You took fancy to Silvia, yet tricked me into marrying you. You abandoned me on my birthday to go shopping with her. When I had a high fever, you were out picking a birthday gift for her. Silvia smashed my head with a wine bottle, but you just grounded her for a day. She cut my hair and slapped me, yet you shielded her…My words carved into his heart like a sharp blade. “Tell me, Vittorio. How many points do you actually think you'll have left?” I continued. “Now, all your points have been deducted. There is no longer any trace of you left in my world.”Vittorio’s breathing grew ragged, his fingertips trembling unconsciously. “I know I negle

    Vittorio’s jaw tightened as he stared at them. “Don’t you know Sylvia Cross is my wife?”“Is she?” Dante feigned utter surprise as he looked at me, “I I was under the impressionthat you and Sylvia already get divorced?”He lowered his head and pressed a tender kiss to my forehead, his tone dripping with affection. “Sylvia, your ex-husband is here to catch us cheating. What should we do?”I jeered, my gaze sweeping over Vittorio with chilling indifference, “He's just my ex-husband. Is it any of his business?”Vittorio felt his chest constrict violently. He stepped forward and grabbed my wrist, “I never agreed to the divorce.”His voice was severe, carrying an undeniable dominance, “Come home with me. I can compensate you for everything that happened before.”I shook off his hand, my eyes filled with pure mockery.“Compensate? You’ll compensate me again.” I scoffed, the sound sharp and bitter. “Vittorio, do you actually believe your compensation matter that much?”“If I took fancy to you

    Vittorio stood still, a heavy sigh escaping his lips. “She went abroad. I'm going to bring her back now.”“Remember to bring her over for dinner when you get back.” Dad reminded him with a smile. He kept talking, his tone full of fondness. “She is so thoughtful. Last time, she deliberately scoured an auction house for an antique tea set just to cheer me up. And your mom suffers from insomnia, yet she specially takes her for acupuncture every single week without fail.” Vittorio froze in his tracks. He had never known that Sylvia had done all these things. The weight of her silent devotion suddenly pressed down on his chest.Just as he reached the front door, the bodyguards were escorting Silvia inside. Her eyes were red and swollen, betraying a night of endless weeping.At the sight of Vittorio, she lunged forward and grabbed his arm, “Vittorio! Don't go, please!”Her voice trembled, thick with unshed tears. “Can we just pretend as if nothing ever occurred yesterday? I don’t want to l

    Wiping away her tears, Silvia suddenly went still. The frantic, tearful girl vanished, replaced by a cold, calculating calm.“Vittorio, what gives you so much confidence? Don’t you forget how terribly you've treated her for my sake over these years?”She began to count off on her fingers one by one. “You stood Sylvia up to accompany me to my birthday party. You stopped bringing her to family gatherings just because I said I didn't like her. When I smashed a bottle over her head, you only gave her a light punishment and grounded me for a single day.”“She's not coming back,” Silvia cried out and a note of hysteria crept into her voice. “She really… doesn't want you anymore.” Vittorio remained perfectly composed, his dark eyes locking onto hers. “Tomorrow, I'll send you back to the old residence. Go meet the candidate Dad has arranged for you.” Silvia stared at him in utter disbelief, “Are you really willing to do this?Looking at her, Vittorio spoke in a soft voice, “Isn't this exactl

    Vittorio wore a serious expression, the warmth completely draining from his eyes. “Get out.” Silvia pouted coquettishly, “We're a couple now. What's wrong with sleeping together?” Seeing that he remained as immovable as a statue, her eyes instantly reddened. “If you kick me out, I'll cry!”Vittorio closed his eyes, a heavy sigh escaping his lips as he helplessly gave in.Silvia got her way, a secret, triumphant thrill blooming in her chest. Eager to solidify her victory, she pulled out a stack of yellowed letter papers and worn sketchbooks from beneath the pillow.“Look! These are the love letters I wrote to you during my teenage years, along with drawings of you!” she read excitedly, “You smiled at me again today. I love you so much…”She threw her arms around him, rubbing against his chest tenderly. “I never expected you to like me back. I'm so happy!”Vittorio remained silent for a long time, letting her cling to him. Then, suddenly, his voice broke the quiet. “Let's get married.”

  • A Heart in Ruins   Chapter 6

    Over the next few days, Silvia clung to Vittorio constantly like a sticky piece of confection that refused to be peeled away. She demanded his constant presence, dragging him from one luxury boutique to the next. Whenever her eyes lit up at a designer bag in a shop window, Vittorio never hesitated. He would simply pull out his black card and settle the bill without a second thought. When she craved the newest trendy restaurant, he stood by her side in line for two hours, never uttering a single word of complaint. When a sudden whim struck her to visit an amusement park, he would cancel board meetings just to ride the carousel with her.She was getting everything she had ever wanted from Vittorio. He indulged her every whim without limit, yet anyone looking closely would notice that there was never a single trace of warmth in his dark eyes. One day, while dining at a newly opened couple-themed restaurant, Vittorio stepped outside midway through the meal to take a private phone call.
