last update Last Updated: 2025-08-08 05:43:09

Diana’s POV

Raphael looked straight into my eyes and repeated the same question that he had asked earlier.

"Do you know the best way to get revenge on your ex?" he asked again, a glint of mischief in his eyes. "Marry Me and become the heiress of the Lorenzo's dynasty."

My eyes opened wide.

Is he really proposing to a stranger he just met?

Yes, we shared a kiss, but it was a one-time thing, I was drunk; who takes a drunk man or woman seriously?

I searched his gaze; his gaze was stern, with no hint of unseriousness.

This man was serious about his proposal.

I leaned back a little, there wasn't even enough space. He was close to me, too close.

"Are you not going to say anything? Or should I lean closer and kiss you first because the more I look at you the harder it is for me to take my eyes off your lips"

Kiss me?

No, not here.

"Don't worry the glass is tinted, so even if I do kiss you, no one would see. We could even make out inside the car"

Make out inside a car?

Is he insane?

    Diana's POV "If it isn't the impostor."I didn't need a soothsayer to tell me that this was none other than Serena. She was in Ciara's house. How the hell did she even know the way to Ciara's house?Ciara and I heaved a sigh of frustration before turning to see Serena and Anna standing by the side of our house."What are you doing here?" I asked, sounding frustrated."Oh, I came to see my sister, oh my bad, you got disowned," she mocked.Anna and Serena burst out laughing."Look Serena, please go back to where you came from. I don't have the strength for a fight or an argument right now.""What do you mean by 'the strength for an argument right now'? I didn't come here to drag grounds with you; I came to make you know your place."I scoffed. "Know my place?" I moved closer, folding my arms. "Now tell me, how do you intend to do that?""Come on, Ciara, there's no need wasting our time here; she's not worth it."Anna and Serena laughed hysterically. "You think you can take what belongs

    Diana's POV "Where am I?" he asked, seeming confused. "Am I at the hospital right now?" he asked, his voice laced with regret.I rushed over to where he was, holding his arms and squeezing them tightly a bit. "Diana, what about our introduction party? We need to go there now," he said, attempting to stand."No, Raphael, that can wait. Besides, you already did the introduction before all this happened.""Are you sure? I can't seem to remember anything from when I got up the stage with you.""Hey friend, you did introduce her to everyone before you slumped," Sebastian interrupted.He heaved a deep sigh of relief."How do you feel now, Marcus?" Shania asked."I feel like a thousand chandeliers had been smashed into my back," he said in a funny tone.Everyone burst out laughing.Shortly after, Gramps, Grandma Audrey, and Lorenzo Junior walked into the hospital room."Oh my God, my grandson!" Grandma Audrey exclaimed."I am so sorry for making you and Gramps worry about me.""Snap out of

  • From Ex to In-law   Chapter 30— Shattered dynasty

    Marcel's POV I was seated by myself in the living room, my thoughts swirling with ideas of retribution. The invitation card scattered on the ground at my feet—a fitting symbol for my intentions regarding Raphael and Diana's relationship. I was left to my own affairs by everyone, including Serena, who appeared let down by my outburst toward my mother. I pictured a vivid image of broken chandeliers, The astonished expressions. The lovely disorder I would generate at their welcoming celebration. I took out my phone and called Marco, my brother.Marco was the last born of the lorenzos but he's quite hot blooded and he hated Raphael as much as I do. He doesn't like to stay in the family house because he didn't like the fact that gramps was always about business and living responsibly so he made dad and mom get him an apartment."Marco, I need your help," I said, skipping the formalities. "What do you want, bro?" he answered immediately. "Have you seen the venue where the introduction

    Marcel's POV "Are you going to sit and watch your brother take everything you've worked so hard to earn?" Serena said, her voice sounding like a lioness roar.I ignored. Lost in my thoughts.I sat on the couch, frustrated and angry; my brother, sorry, that kind of a person isn't my brother. That monster wants to take away what is rightfully mine.He left us years ago, and now he was back, about to reap from where he didn't sow."Are you even listening to me, Marcel?" She yelled "I need to think, Serena, please give me a break," I yelled back at her.She took a few steps backwards. I knew instantly that she was annoyed, but I couldn't worry about that at that moment. Raphael was about to become the heir to the Lorenzos dynasty and it wasn't just that he was going to get married to my ex Diana. There was no way I was going to sit and watch that happen.Over my dead body."Marcel", Mom called me the name from downstairs.I was in my parent's mansion.At first, I didn't want to go.Why

    Diana’s POV Moving closer to me, she asked, "Why didn't you tell me he was here?" her voice a whisper."I tried to but you weren't getting it."She turned and greeted him respectfully. "I am Ciara Bennett." "Well, I am Sebastian Hayes."Ciara's jaw dropped in amazement.Sebastian smiled."Tell me you are joking""No, I am not joking; I am Sebastian Hayes, son of the mayor of this great city.""Oh my gosh, I have heard so much about you." She lied Ciara had this funny attitude of pretending to have heard about someone she's just meeting for the first time, but it's nothing serious; it's just one of her old daddy jokes."Really?""Oh no, I am just playing with you" She laughed happily."Oh my, you almost got me, dear Ms Bennett.""It's Ciara, please." She corrected."Okay... noted Ciara." He smiled.She turned to face me."How's he doing? He is going to be fine soon.""We don't know yet; Shania went in with the doctor as he insisted he had to see a family member, and no one else was

I wasn't angry because I understood that it had probably been a while since they had seen each other. Plus, it also felt good to see Raphael smile genuinely.I was about to move away when I felt his hands on me, griping them tightly a little bit, then reducing their grip. I understood what it meant.I smiled.He needed me there with him. Shortly after a loud screeching sound came from the microphone on the podium.Mr Lorenzo Junior was on the podium and was going to address everyone."I am sorry for what you all had to experience here right now; please, it's with deep and great sadness that I bring to you the news that this introduction party h
