No Longer Waiting for You Chapter 9
Another six months went by, and Moretti Winery hosted our new vintage launch event right at the same estate where the wedding was supposed to take place.To expand our production, I had purchased the estate months prior, transforming it into a venue where guests and distributors could observe the winemaking process firsthand.Before the launch began, my mother gently draped a pearl necklace, an heirloom left to me by my grandmother, around my neck.“You didn’t get to wear it on your wedding day, but an occasion like today is far more worthy.”Inside the grand hall, guests mingled and savored the distinct flavors of each vintage.Some favored a sweeter profile, others preferred a crisp, dry finish, and many were drawn to a bold initial taste with a smooth, lingering finish. Fortunately, we had prepared a wide enough selection to cater to every preference.Representatives from hotel groups that had never partnered with us before signed wholesale contracts right after tasting this y

A year passed, and my wine grew more famous with each passing day.I was even invited by the Bordeaux Chamber of Commerce and Industry to attend their official gala as a guest judge.That night, I saw Dario once again.The second his eyes landed on me, they lit up, and he made his way through the crowd toward me. It was just like the day he fell in love with me at first sight and confessed his feelings without hesitation.Yet seeing that familiar scene repeat itself, I didn't feel a single flutter in my heart.“Erin! I finally found you. How have you been? I’ve been following your news every single day.”He was so nervous his hands were visibly shaking.“I am so sorry about what happened that day. I was out of my mind to let Sofia hijack your suite like that. I swear to you, nothing like that will ever happen again. Could you please just give me one more chance to win you back?”I shut him down without hesitation.“If my father wasn't a Godfather, and if I didn't have my famil

Three months had passed since that ruined wedding, and I had completely moved on from that toxic relationship.In the beginning, I locked myself in my bedroom every day, drinking until I was numb.Seeing me like that broke my mom's heart, and she would hold me in her arms every day, whispering words of comfort.It went on like that until I had practically sampled every single bottle in our family's cellar. But as my palate grew increasingly refined, I started finding ordinary red wines dull and unsatisfying.Slowly but surely, my focus shifted away from Dario and toward the art of winemaking.I stopped asking myself if I had been good enough or why he had chosen Sofia. I stopped wondering how my life would look if we had just finished the ceremony.Instead, I began spending all my days locked in the cellar, obsessively studying how to craft the perfect, exquisite vintage.Seeing that I was no longer consumed by grief, my dad went from worrying endlessly about me to traveling aro

“I’m sorry, but Miss Moretti explicitly instructed us to ignore any call from the Catania family. I’m only calling to formally notify you that the engagement is canceled, and all business agreements between our families are officially terminated.”Before Dario could even put in a word, the line went dead.Within twenty-four hours, news of the wedding scandal spread like wildfire across all of Sicily. Everyone quickly caught wind that Dario had crossed the one family he shouldn't have.His rival, Mason, wasted no time that afternoon, leading a crew down to the docks to hijack Dario’s shipment. He even bragged that he intended to use this moment to crush Dario for good.To make matters worse, internal chaos erupted within the family.Dario’s uncle, who had been secretly eyeing his position for years, stopped playing nice altogether. He began scheduling back-to-back secret meetings with family elders, hoping to leverage the crisis to usurp Dario and take control.Even Dario’s closes

The wedding march played through twice. When the bride still hadn't appeared, whispers began to ripple through the crowd.Elena stepped onto the stage, took the microphone, and forced a smile as she announced, “Due to the bride feeling slightly unwell, the wedding will be rescheduled for another date. Please, everyone, stay and enjoy your meal.”She had barely finished speaking before guests began scrolling on their phones, catching the official notice I had just broadcast: our engagement was officially broken off.The hall instantly erupted into chaos. Relentlessly, Dario began calling my phone. When I refused to pick up, he fired off a barrage of text messages.[What do you mean, broken off? Erin, answer your phone!][Everyone is watching us. You're ruining my reputation!]Just then, his underboss, Max, came sprinting over with a phone, completely out of breath. “Don, it’s for you.”“Can’t you see I’m busy?! Tell them to go away!” Dario barked.Max’s face was pale. “It’s a

Sofia stood right behind Dario, wearing my custom silk robe and holding my bridal bouquet.Her eyes were slightly red, but her makeup was flawless, and her hair had clearly been professionally styled.So she hadn't been sleeping at all. She had simply hijacked my bridal suite and comfortably soaked up every bit of Dario's blatant favoritism.Sofia looked at me with a meek expression and offered a soft apology.“I’m so sorry, Erin. Dario saw that my clothes were all wrinkled from sleeping, so he just lent me your robe to wear.”Dario, on the other hand, didn't bother to offer any explanation. He simply snatched the wedding dress from Mom's arms and shoved it into mine.“Hurry up and go change. We still have three minutes. It's enough time if you rush.”Mom tightly held my hand.“It takes more than three minutes just to put on the bodysuit! How do you expect her to walk down the aisle in three minutes?!”Dario glanced down at his watch, his tone growing impatient.“Then skip it
