Martina POV
“What did you just say?” Simon asked surprised.
“You heard me right , Theodore Galterio is already legally married , to Renee , whom we all thought was his cousin.” I replied.
“That bastard , he planned this from the beginning, to make Aria his mistress!” He raged.
I smirked , this is exactly what I want to achieve.
I called Renee already and told her I would like to meet up with her , luckily she agreed.
Now I just need to make sure Simon agrees
So sad😿
Theodore POVI walked back to Aria’s room but was surprised to see it opened.“Aria?” I called out walking into the room .I heard a groan , I rushed inside immediately.My eyes widened by what I saw ,“What happened?” I rushed to meet Reneè who laid on the floor in a pool of blood, she had a stab wound just a little above her abdomen
Theodore POV“What!” I growled.“She’s getting married to Simon?” I asked aggravated.Pancho sighed , “What happened in Paris Theo, I thought you wanted to fix things?”“I don’t know , I don’t fucking know!, everything was going well , one minute she was with me and the next she was gone!” “I don’t know how Reneè or even Simon knew where we were.”
Aria POVI stared at the ring in my hand , then I heard the door open, it was Becca.“You are still thinking about him right?” She asked.“No.” I lied.“Come on Aria , you don’t have to deny it , I know you still think of him all the time and I sure as hell know you don’t love Simon, why are you doing this to yourself?” She lamented.“Becca , what am I supposed to do?... continue being his mistress?” 
Aria POVWe were all sitting at the table eating, Papa Jones cracked jokes occasionally , it was so peaceful here , I really needed this ... no Dad , no Simon , no Theodore.Then we heard a knock on the door.“Uh , we aren’t expecting anybody.” Papa Jones said.“I will go check.” Becca stood and walked to the door.“Uh... Aria?” She called my name with a tone of surprise.I stood up to go see what was happening.
Aria POVI opened my eyes , the sun was rising already.I tried stretching but groaned.My leg hurts , I looked at it ... ah!, that scorpion.“Aria , you are awake.” Becca said happily.“Careful , your leg is still healing , Mama Agnes said the antidote is still spreading so you might feel a bit weak.” She explained and handed me a cup of water.I drank the water immediately, I was so thirsty.
Theodore POV:“You are still sulking.” Pancho entered my room.I laid on my bed depressed , I felt so empty inside , all because of Aria.She has so much effect on my life.She’s the only one that can make me feel this way , she is literally my weakness.“What else can I do , she’s getting married to Simon , she chose him over me , she made it clear.” I muttered sadly.“You really fell hard for her , didn’t you?” He asked.
Aria POV I opened my eyes and looked around , I was in a car , Theodore was driving.“What is this? , where are you taking me?” I questioned.He gave no reply.“Take me back!” I yelled but he still didn’t reply.“Take me to Simon , Take me to my husband.” He pressed on the brake unexpectedly , stopping the car.
Simon’s POV“Aria!.” I yelled her name as I checked from one room to another.“I can’t find her anywhere , I don’t feel good about this.” Ma’am Serena panicked , same with Becca who searched through all the rooms with me.“Aria!” I yelled louder this time going downstairs.Uncle Hernando approached u
