His Favoritism Was Never for Me Chapter 9
"I heard the Don's sworn enemy was behind it. They abducted Isabella to force him to hand over his business. "Even though the Don's men arrived just in time to save her, the enemy had sulfuric acid ready. She couldn't dodge it in time, and nearly half of her face was badly burned. She's recovering here in Lindaum now."Carmela patted my shoulder. "It's actually a good thing you chose to leave Aldo. At least now you won't be in danger."She yawned. "Celia, I think we should get some rest. If we stay up all night, I'm not going to look my best for my own wedding."The next day, the wedding went off without a hitch. Just as the banquet ended and the guests were leaving, a woman with her face covered in bandages suddenly made a beeline for me. "Go to hell, Celia!" It was Isabella.I desperately wanted to get out of the way, but my body simply wouldn't respond. All I could do was freeze. Just when I thought there was no way I could get away from Isabella, someone reached out f

I nodded, completely unfazed. "Alright, then. Don't come back."Seeing how cold I was, Aldo felt as though someone had just ripped his heart out of his chest. He was in complete agony. "Before I go, will you give me a hug?" Aldo was afraid that I wouldn't say yes, so he quickly added, "Just a friendly hug."I hesitated for a moment before nodding. That would be a way to put an end to what we had. We used to be lovers, yet now we had become complete strangers. "I'm sorry, Celia. I'm really sorry…" Aldo held me tightly in his arms, apologizing over and over. I had no idea what he was apologizing for, and I couldn't be bothered to find out. His apology had come far too late to undo the damage he had caused. It was just a way for him to fool himself and make himself feel less guilty. After Aldo left, my life didn't change at all. Even my colleagues, who used to tease me about him, never brought him up again. Some people were only passing through our lives. Even after they lef

Celia's POVI hadn't expected the headquarters in New Ridge to make such a big deal of my arrival. They even assigned me an assistant in advance."Celia, welcome to New Ridge. I'm your assistant, Nora Bianco. This will be your office."I opened the door and stepped inside my office. A floor-to-ceiling wall of windows overlooked Manahain. The place already had everything I needed—drafting boards, color swatch books, 3D modeling equipment, and more.I had been pretty anxious, but the moment I spotted those familiar tools, I started to calm down. Nora Bianco handed me a file. "The headquarters is currently preparing a new collection focused on high-end custom designs. The boss has decided you'll take over the project."I already knew what was in store for me before coming over to New Ridge. At the fall show two years ago, many clients liked my "Late Fall" collection, which earned me an industry award for emerging designers. Ever since then, the headquarters had hoped I would co

"Isabella, what did you put in the wine?" Aldo shook his head frantically, trying to stay clear-headed. "It's just a little something to make you sleep. It won't harm you," Isabella explained as she held his hand. Just as she was about to undress him, his last shred of reason finally won out over the effects of the drug. He shoved her aside and slashed his own arm with a knife. The pain immediately brought him back to his senses. "I want you to leave. Get lost! Don't ever show your face in front of me again!" Isabella looked at his bleeding arm, her eyes filled with heartache and despair. "Aldo, are you crazy? Do you really hate me that much?"Even if you're willing to hurt yourself rather than give in to me, Celia will never come back to you. You broke her heart a long time ago!""Nonsense! She's just throwing a tantrum!" Even now, Aldo was certain that Celia would forgive him. "Once I've finished my work, I'll fly to New Ridge myself and apologize to her."Isabella couldn'

Third-Person POVNo matter what, Aldo refused to believe that Celia would leave without saying goodbye. At the family dinner that night, he had no choice but to hide the truth from his parents. He told them that Celia was away on a business trip and couldn't make it back on time. "Aldo, what's going on between you and Celia?" his father, Mattia Vitale, asked, setting his fork and knife down. "We're fine. Dad, she's just a little busy with work."His mother, Rosella Russo, stared at him in silence. "Is that so? Then, why did the people at the winery tell me it's over between the two of you? The butler also told me that Celia had started packing up her things last week."Aldo stopped cutting into his steak. He suddenly thought about how Celia had been treating him lately. On the surface, it was just like any other tantrum. But when he thought about it more carefully, he realized it was a little different this time. In the past, whenever she got upset, she would cry to vent h

Aldo went deathly pale. "Celia, hear me out."He immediately grabbed me by the wrist. "Our estate is way too far from the port. By the time I wrap up the deal, it's already late at night. "That's why I'd stay here to go over the accounts and get some rest. Nothing's going on between Isabella and me. I'm serious. "It was my second-in-command who bought all the household items. I didn't think he'd buy matching sets. I only found out when they were delivered." Seeing that I remained completely unmoved, Aldo grew more frustrated. "The point is, you're way too clingy and sensitive about everything. Being around you is really exhausting. "Isabella and I are just friends. It's up to you whether you believe me or not. Celia, we might be lovers, but we still need our personal space. You can't just blame everything on me. "Tell you what. Let's compromise. I'll have someone come by tomorrow and pick up all my belongings, okay?"The noise slowly faded into the background. Aldo grew n
