Chapter 5

ผู้เขียน: Blazing Flames
I didn't just change my dressing style, but also my hairstyle.

Before, Marco liked me to dress more demurely, with long hair to match.

Others said I was intentionally crafting a soft, demure image, and I actually felt that way too. But Marco liked it, so I had no choice.

Now, I'd switched to a suit, paired with neat short hair. Although the outfit was simple, it exuded a strong, capable, and energetic vibe.

Even the family's Underboss, Sergio Gallo, said with a smile when he saw me, "This st

    I could tell that Marco and his parents had been at my parents' house for a few days already. It was just that Papa and Mamma had never told me. When they saw me, they were both worried and heartbroken, because they knew the situation I was in.It reminded me of the time they'd tried to talk me out of marrying Marco."Chiara," they'd said. "Marco isn't the right man for you. He's a man without accountability. You two aren't suited for each other."Now, I truly regretted not having listened to them.The moment Marco saw me walk into the room, his eyes lit up.In all five years, I'd never dressed like this before.The truth was, his eyes held two versions of Lucia and never once me."Chiara, if you come back to me, I promise I'll put you at the center of my world from now on.""Your promises mean nothing to me anymore, Marco. The public opinion online, your family coming after me—all of it is happening because they don't know the truth. I believe that once the truth is laid out b

    I turned to look out the window at the blue sky and the planes endlessly taking off and landing. After a while, I felt my mood lighten considerably.Then, I let it all out in one breath."The things I can't bear to part with are the things I believe are worth my devotion. But once I decide something has no value anymore, I'd never turn back. Marco, I think you know better than I do why you chose to pursue me back then."I figured it out the moment I first laid eyes on Lucia. But who doesn't have a past? I gave you time to move past yours, but you never did. I could accept you caring for her and looking out for her in the name of friendship. After all, I have friends of my own too."But don't you feel that your care for her has already gone far beyond what a friend would do? Did you really think I didn't know she was the reason we lost our baby? The truth is, I knew everything. I was waiting for you to come clean, but you didn't."I was happily preparing for our third wedding anniv

    When Lucia heard the noise, she came over to the check.Marco pointed at the food in the trash can and said, "Chiara made all that for me, but she threw it away. When I look at it, I feel like she's thrown me away too."Lucia watched coldly from the side as Marco's voice filled with sorrow, a trace of annoyance flickering across her face."It's just food. What do you want to eat? I'll take you out. I'm really starving. If you can't cook, let's just go out to eat."Marco had expected Lucia to comfort him as she used to, but this time she didn't. Surprised as he was, he couldn't bring himself to get angry the moment he saw the impatience plain on her face.In the end, he could only mutter softly, "Fine."After that, they went to their favorite private dining establishment and ordered their favorite dishes.Lucia had a great appetite, eating quickly and with obvious pleasure.Marco, on the other hand, found the food utterly tasteless. While eating, he couldn't stop thinking about

He believed I'd eventually return on my own, just like I always had before.However, even after an hour had passed, I still hadn't returned.Marco went back to the bedroom and saw that my things were no longer there. Even th

    After saying that, I turned and wheeled my suitcase toward the door without so much as a backward glance.Behind me, I could vaguely hear Marco asking, "Chiara, are you serious?"There was a panic in his voice that I had never heard before."Yes, I'm serious. I told you before that my heart is small—it only has room for one person, and that was you. But the truth is, most hearts are like that. Fill them with too much, and some things will always outweigh others."You know better than I do where I rank in yours. Since I don't matter to you, let's go our separate ways. It'll be better for both of us."With that, I didn't spare him another glance. Instead, I picked up the suitcase at my feet and walked straight out the door.His voice, tinged with both fury and an unease he himself probably wasn't even aware of, drifted from behind me."Chiara, stop right there! If you walk out that door, don't even think you can just waltz right back in!"In the instant before the door closed, I

    When I actually said the word "divorce" out loud, it didn't hurt as much as I'd imagined.But Marco just sneered coldly, as if he'd heard some kind of joke. "Chiara, what did you just say?"I looked at him steadily and repeated, "I want a divorce. My lawyer, Davide Moretti, will deliver the divorce papers to you."Marco sauntered up to me with open disdain and made a move to embrace me, but I slipped out of reach. My evasion only added to the annoyance written all over his face."Can you just stop this already? I've been dealing with family matters and looking after Lucia these past few days, so I'm exhausted and don't have the energy to comfort you."I interrupted Marco immediately, not willing to spare him even a shred of dignity. "Once we're divorced, you can look after Lucia without having to hide it."Marco's expression instantly darkened. "Chiara Esposito, what are you throwing a fit about this time? Lucia is already having a hard time as it is, so why must you compete with
