“Just say it.” Caterina reiterated, as Marco seemed hesitant to say.

Marco was silent for a long time; only his heavy breathing could be heard. He had not expected his lie to be exposed so soon. If Dante was really dead, then the secret would never be revealed.

“Marco!” Caterina was getting impatient. She had been holding back since before; now her stock of patience was running low. She wanted to know if she had really been lied to by Marco or not.

Again, Marco sighed heavily. He looked up; he looked deeply into Caterina's eyes, as if he wanted to explain everything through his eyes. Because his mouth felt very heavy to speak.

“Sorry.” That was all Marco could finally say. An apology that explained everything.

Caterina's face immediately changed after she heard the word sorry come out of Marco's mouth. She looked very disappointed. Her breathing sounded heavy; she looked down to regulate her emotions so as not to explode at that moment.

All this time Caterina had trusted Marco too muc

    This morning the air felt colder than usual. Caterina put a thick jacket on Shopia's body. While in the distance, Luka came with several cups of hot coffee."For you." Luka handed the coffee cups to Leonardo and Alex.Leonardo accepted the coffee with a smile, while the corner of his eye looked at Caterina, who was busy with Shopia. He was happy to see Caterina happy. However, his heart sank when he realized that Caterina's happiness was not him. He had to let the woman he loved live with another man.Sophia turned to look at Leonardo. He smiled broadly and waved goodbye. The only reason Caterina and Luka met Leonardo this morning was because Shopia was related to him. Sophia should at least recognize her uncle.Leonardo waved back at the little girl. Just like Alex said, Leonardo has changed a lot from before.Caterina led Shopia towards the group of men."Honey, give the gift to Uncle Leo." Caterina said softly.Sophia nodded.Leonardo stared at Caterina without blinking. After six

    "Kate, I want to talk seriously." Alex said with a serious look on his face. He rarely acted like this. If he said something serious, it meant it was serious."Honey, you go to your room first." Caterina said very softly.Shopia, who was lying on Caterina's thigh, got up and went to her room. That child was really very obedient."What do you want to talk about?" Caterina looked up, looking at the man with a questioning look."Leo will be out of prison tomorrow morning." The man gave information. It wasn't that he wanted to scare Caterina, but he had something else to say."You can rest assured, Kate will be safe as long as I'm with her. There's nothing to be afraid of; he already has a criminal history. If he does the same thing a second time, the punishment will be more severe than before." Luka said firmly. It was as if he was emphasizing that no one could hurt Caterina as long as he existed. Even if that person was Leonardo.This was the sixth month of their marriage, just as Leona

    Caterina stood in front of the mirror. She looked at her reflection there. The beautiful face looked even more beautiful after being polished with makeup. She took a deep breath, then let it out slowly. She tried to convince herself that this was the right move. She did not want to regret her decision to marry Luka. Here she had found so much love. This was the place where she could get what she wanted.There was a knock on the door from outside.Caterina invited him to enter. Dante stepped inside with tears in his eyes. He was touched when he saw his daughter in a wedding dress. He could finally see Caterina get married.As they had hoped, the world Luka offered was far from the hustle and bustle of crime. There were no enemies, no gunshots, no danger lurking every time they left the house.It was the kind of peaceful life that Dante and Caterina had always wanted. They had intended to escape to Sydney and start a new life in the city. However, they never imagined that they would mee

    Leonardo looked at Dante very seriously. His eyes showed as if he was asking what was wrong. He wanted to know what Caterina thought of him."She doesn't hate you like you think. Kate is very forgiving." Dante said with affirmation.Leonardo was silent. In fact, even though Caterina had forgiven him, he still had no chance to get back Caterina's heart. His love story had ended there."Her wedding to Luka is in a fortnight. Come if you can." Dante informed.It seemed that the man's affection for Leonardo ran deep. Of course he did. He had taken care of the man since he was a baby until he grew up like this. The time he spent with Leonardo was far more than the time he had spent with his own daughter. Naturally, he felt that his bond with Leonardo could not be broken. Moreover, Leonardo has realized and regretted everything he has ever done."I'm not sure I can attend her wedding. I can't bear to see her married to another man." Leonardo said with a trembling voice. His eyes looked tear

    The party finished just before 1am. Caterina felt very tired and sleepy. She was used to staying up late and sleeping early in the morning; it was just that she was not used to the crowded atmosphere and formal events like this. Interacting with so many people made her feel very tired. Her energy was drained very much. At this rate, she would need a few days of rest to fully recharge his energy."I'm sorry you had to keep me company until midnight." Luka felt guilty. He felt bad. He remembered when Leonardo had brought Caterina to an important event and asked her to go home first because Caterina felt uncomfortable. However, he could not do what Leonardo did, because Caterina was one of the important people in this event. It would not be good for her to leave the party in the middle of it.Caterina smiled broadly. It seemed that she had to get used to it. Because, in the future, she will attend more often in this way."It is I who apologizes for not being able to accompany you to the

    "You go in first; I want to see my father first." Luka said as they arrived at an upscale hotel tonight. As Adam had said last week, tonight he would be holding an official party to announce the company's new leader, as well as to tell the public that Caterina was Luka's future wife.There will be a lot of media coming to broadcast the news. Caterina's name will become famous after this. She will be the daughter-in-law of the richest man in Sydney. Her profile and background will be explored by many people. If they knew that Caterina came from the dark world of the mafia, they would probably look down on her. She would be labeled as a bad person.Caterina nodded gently, she released her embrace on Luka's arm, and let him leave.Caterina didn't really like parties and crowds like this, so she felt very uncomfortable. She stepped very clumsily into the building where the party would be held.However, Caterina's steps were halted as the doorman stopped her. They asked her to show her inv
