After being dumped for the 99th time for being a “chatterbox,” I finally met my soulmate, Lysander Thorne. As the Mafia godfather, he was a man of few words, but listened to every single word I said with rapt attention. His proposal shattered the curse that had doomed me to a hundred rejections. But, I discovered a fatal flaw in Lysander after we got married. Whatever he spoke to me, he never exceeded ten words. I thought it was his stoic personality until I gave a hand to a girl being harassed by a thug at the bar. At the police station, the girl asked, “Has your husband not arrived yet? My friend will pick me up and you can leave with us.” The next second, I saw Lysander rushing in, looking utterly disheveled. “Elara Thorne! Why do you stir up trouble on your very first day back home? You've got wings of your own now, haven’t you? Did I ever tell you to stay safe firstly when something happened? Stop being so impulsive!” It turned out Lysander could get emotional. How ridiculous! When Lysander entered, his eyes were solely fixed on Elara. I looked at him with a blank expression, and wordlessly walked out of the police station.

Just One Last Dance Chapter 10
No one would doubt that I would make any choice other than getting back together with him.Just before hanging up, my mom asked, “Dear, are you okay? Do you need me to come over and keep you company?”I shook my head gently: “It’s okay. Mom. I can handle it.”“Okay,” my mom continued with a smile. “As long as you’re happy, just do whatever you want. I totally supported your decision to divorce Lysander. But if you decide to get back together with him, I will still respect your choice. ”At that moment, it hit me that they all believed I couldn’t live without Lysander. No one cared about the mistakes he made in the past. Lysander had saved my life at the risk of his own life, but did that mean I had to go back to him? I examined my own conscience and asked, “Is this really what I want? Do I still love Lysander?”Two hours later, Lysander’s surgery was completed, and he was smoothly transferred to a regular ward. The doctor said he would regain consciousness within 24 hours. That meant

Cassian and I got along really well. He also became my first friend in Italy on this trip. A few months later, we worked together to hold an art exhibition. The gallery was packed with visitors, but among the crowd stood the one person I least wanted to see.In the center of the hall, Lysander straightly strode toward me. But, he didn’t put himself on a pedestal, “Sorry, Seraphina.”He murmured in front of me, yet it struck my heart with the force of a thousand pounds.“It’s me…I was wrong.” “It doesn’t matter anymore,” I replied to him indifferently.I turned around, intending to leave. A deafening scream suddenly pierced the air. Elara, her eyes bloodshot and wild, grabbed a sharp dagger and lunged toward me.“Seraphina, you’ve ruined me! I'll haunt you until my last breath!”I was completely surrounded, with absolutely no way to dodge that blade. Elara’s face was deathly pale, her expression twisted with madness. Time seemed to freeze. I could clearly hear the sound of my own bre

“Elope?” Lysander couldn’t grasp what she meant immediately. “Yes, we run away!” Elara was so excited that her breathing turned ragged. “Brother, just take me away. Everyone is buzzing with our gossip and we don’t need to take it seriously. No one would trust us anyway. Or, we might as well take this opportunity to make our relationship public.” Elara entreated him desperately, “Brother, we can run away together. As long as I can stay with you, I’m willing to give up everything, including a fortune worth millions. What I really want is to be with you…” Lysander fell silent. His breathing grew heavier and heavier. In a daze, he had indeed pondered over running away with Elara many years ago, but he failed. Yet at this very moment, when Elara brought it up again, what arose in Lysander’s mind was a sudden, instictive resistance for no reason.Lysander, without giving it much thought, blurted out his refusal: “No way.”“Why not?” Elara screamed. “Brother, don’t you love me? We love eac

Boom! Lysander felt a deafening roar near his ears, instantly drowning out every other sound around him. He stood frozen, his face a mask of cold disbelief. “Dad, this joke isn’t funny. He paused, “I know you don’t want to keep Elara at home any longer. But you don’t have to tell liesaSeraphina is gone.” Magnus remained silent for a moment, then abruptly stood up and walked toward the living room. He pulled open the drawer, took out a document from inside, and placed it heavily on the table.Lysander clenched his hands into fists, the veins on the backs of his hands standing out starkly as if he desperately struggled to suppress and endure something deep inside, “Tell Seraphina to come out.” “Don’t you know it?” Magnus sighed, “I did my best to dissuade her when Seraphina proposed divorce.”Lysander clenched his teeth tightly, and a slight tremor leaked out. Magnus continued, “Seraphina’s parents and I were very optimistic about your marriage, but Seraphina was firm and you’d alrea

I was pinned down directly by Lysander’s enforcer, my blood running cold as if I’d plunged into an ice cellar. I couldn’t believe he had the heart to lock me away. He knew better than anyone that what I fear most is the isolation! When I was a child, my sister and I were once kidnapped together an

I shot back, my voice trembling with rage: “On what grounds do you think it's me? The fact is she stole the painting from my sister. She deserved to be caught.”Lysander took a deep breath, forcing his temper down. He did his utmost to remain calm, though his eyes remained cold, “Don’t get excited

Early the next morning, I was jolted awake by the noise downstairs. I rushed to the hallway on the second floor and peered down. Elara was kneeling in the living room, her eyes rimmed with red.“I’ll never get married!”Magnus, Lysander’s father, cracked his whip against the ground, his voice thunde

Upon returning home, I dug up Elara Thorne’s personal file. Elara had been adopted by Magnus Thorne, the head of the Thorne family, when she was a child. She was shipped abroad at sixteen after Magnus detected an unspoken bond between Lysander and his adopted daughter. Magnus had granted Elara a gr
