LOGINWhen Dante postponed our wedding because of Nadia for the fourth time, I accepted it silently as usual. But after hanging up, I immediately had my private lawyer draft a divorce agreement. I placed the agreement on the last page of our postnuptial agreement, then asked Dante to sign it. He was rushing pick up Nadia, so he signed his name without reading it at all. "The agreement will take effect 7 days after signing." Seven days. Seven days later was the exact wedding date Dante had promised me. The countdown began.
View MoreA week later, Lucy flew to France.She excitedly told me that she’d like to develop the Paris branch together with me and didn’t plan to return to New York.Lucy and I had worked together for many years and built a deep friendship. Hearing this news, I hugged her tightly with tears in my eyes.We moved the firm into a luxury office building. On the first floor of this building was a top French dessert shop run by a young French man named Julian.He was 188 cm tall, with a male model's figure and an aristocratic, refined face.As I got to know him better, I learned that running the dessert shop was just his personal interest. In fact, this entire office building and half of the vineyard estates in Provence belonged to his family. His family was not only wealthy but also extremely powerful, with deep ties even to the local mafia.One afternoon, while I was drinking coffee at the dessert shop counter, the TV on the wall was playing financial news from the international underworld.In fr
Looking at the paper scraps falling to the ground, I sighed with a bit of helplessness."Please do not litter in a public place."Dante froze on the spot, not expecting my reaction to his roaring to be so indifferent.He kicked aside the paper scraps at his feet, grabbed my arm, and wanted to take me away."I don't recognize this agreement. We're going to re-register right now—"I stumbled for a second, then stood firm."You signed it yourself, Dante. I asked you to read the document carefully. But you were in such a hurry to get to your Nadia that you didn't even look at it. Who else can you blame?"His footsteps halted abruptly. A wave of intense guilt almost drowned him. But he still instinctively pulled me, waiting for me to compromise like I had countless times in the past.I was so stubborn and stand by my principles in everything. Only toward him, I always bowed my head without limits.For five years, whenever he made a request, I would give up my principles for him. Because I l
Dante's face turned pale instantly. He smiled awkwardly and shook his head in disbelief."No... that's impossible. You're still joking with me, right?"He wanted to step forward to grab me, but because of my repeated rejections, he didn't dare to move.He was afraid that if he got close, I would run away completely.We just stood frozen in place.His voice lacked the usual authority of a Don."When did we get divorced? You never mentioned it to me, and I would never agree!"Unwilling to entangle with him any further, I dragged my suitcase, turned toward the car waiting to take me to the airport, and left him with one final sentence."The divorce agreement is on the dining table. See for yourself."Dante rushed into the house like crazy and grabbed the document on the table.At the end of that divorce agreement, his own bold and forceful signature was clearly signed.Dante would not fail to recognize his own handwriting.But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t recall when he had si
At that exact moment, the door was suddenly pushed open heavily from the outside.Dante stood under the porch in the pouring rain, soaked through and gasping for breath. His tie was pulled loose, and wet strands of hair stuck messily to his forehead.Without seeing it with their own eyes, no one would believe that the proud Don Dante could look so disheveled.An anxious, cautious smile hung on Dante's exhausted face."I'm so sorry, honey..." he panted, wiping rain from the corner of his eye. "I just finished the last security deployment. My car broke down two blocks away, so I ran all the way here..."His stopped abruptly.His deep green eyes stared fixedly at the suitcase in my hand and the corner of the ticket peeking out from my coat pocket.The smile on his face shattered instantly, turning into undisguised anxiety."Elena," His voice trembled violently. "Where are you going?"I turned the ticket over and handed it to him. Printed clearly on it was the destination: Paris.Dante's e
