“We have heard your vows and your promise of faithful love.

I now declare you husband and wife.

May joy be with you from this day forward.

You may now kiss.”

Zenna felt Matthew’s arm slip around her waist as he gently pulled her closer to his body.

From watching the bride and groom at the altar seal their vows with a kiss, her attention shifted to the man beside her. Her lips parted in surprise as Matthew’s face moved closer to hers. It felt like a slow-motion scene from a drama. But before his

    “We have heard your vows and your promise of faithful love.I now declare you husband and wife.May joy be with you from this day forward.You may now kiss.”Zenna felt Matthew’s arm slip around her waist as he gently pulled her closer to his body.From watching the bride and groom at the altar seal their vows with a kiss, her attention shifted to the man beside her. Her lips parted in surprise as Matthew’s face moved closer to hers. It felt like a slow-motion scene from a drama. But before his lips could touch hers, she quickly covered her mouth with her hand.“Your cousin is the groom, not you,” she snapped, pushing his face away.“Neither are you my cousin’s bride. You are my—”“One more word and I’ll scratch your handsome face, Ricaforte.”“At least you admitted I’m handsome,” he chuckled.He pulled his face back slightly, but his arm remained wrapped around her waist.“Can you just shut up?” she shot him an irritated glare.Fortunately, they were standing in a corner of the churc

    She had been irritated with Matthew for a while because he hadn’t even given her any attention when he arrived at the office. What was the point of them being in the same room if he wasn’t going to do anything? She kept standing and sitting down with nothing to do. She had even offered him coffee, but he merely shook his head and didn’t lift his face from the folders his secretary had brought in earlier.Out of frustration, she couldn’t stop herself from walking up to his desk and dropping a folder in front of him. It worked—she finally got his attention. Thank God. She had almost turned into a mere decoration in his office.“What?” Though his brows were furrowed, amusement was still evident on his face. It even seemed like he was deliberately ignoring her.That only made her more annoyed.“Don’t ‘what’ me, Matthew! It’s almost noon and I still haven’t done anything at my desk. You already have your own secretary—you don’t need a PA-slash-decoration in your office!” She tried to forge

    She didn’t understand anything about the brief argument between the two men, whom she had just learned were brothers. It seemed this wasn’t the right day to talk to the CEO. She was about to turn and leave when the man spoke.“As I expected, you came back to accept my offer.”If there was sarcasm in his voice, she chose to ignore it. She came here for something more important, not for a pointless fight.“I came back because you didn’t give me a choice, Mr. Ricaforte,” she said, glaring at him. Who cared if this man looked like a modern god in his business suit, his appearance radiating power and authority?“Do you think you can escape me again, Zenna?” he asked softly as he walked toward her.She raised an eyebrow. She wouldn’t show him fear or unease. She wouldn’t be intimidated by a Ricaforte man. While other women might throw themselves at men like him, she wouldn’t. She would do what he wanted because she had no other choice. This was for Nathaniel—she had to do it.“What are you

    Zenna took several deep breaths. The company had called her the day before to inform her that the interview would be conducted today by none other than the CEO of La Fashionista, which was why she now found herself standing inside the towering building of the said company.She felt like she was about to pee from nervousness. Her hands were cold, and her heart was pounding violently in her chest. She couldn’t understand why she was this anxious.God. This was the first time she had ever felt this nervous. She, who had extensive experience in this field, was now outmatched in self-confidence even by beginners.This wasn’t even the first time she had been interviewed by a company’s CEO. Back in Italy, the president of Armines Clothing Line had personally interviewed her. She had handled that just fine. She hadn’t been this nervous then.“Ms. Lopez, the boss is ready to see you,” the CEO’s secretary announced.She flinched at the sudden interruption.The secretary knocked three times befo

    **Two Years Later…**“Hello, my baby boy!” she said as she leaned forward and planted a gentle kiss on Nathaniel’s pouted lips.Her son was undeniably handsome—healthy and already showing signs that he would grow into a strong man, just like his father. She suddenly paused when the memory of the man she had met two years ago crossed her mind.His name was Matthew. Yes, that was all she knew—his first name, and of course, his face. Physically, he was the kind of man any woman of Eve’s lineage would dream of. She had never forgotten the face of that stranger. Even after two years, she could still remember his strikingly handsome features with perfect clarity.She shook her head, trying to erase his image from her thoughts. She shouldn’t be thinking about that Tuscan-Filipino man anymore. Even if he had played a significant role in her life during that one night they shared in Viareggio, it wasn’t right to dwell on the past.She was deeply thankful for that one night.Because of it, she

    **Two Years Earlier…**Zenna wrapped her arms around herself, embracing her body as she breathed in the fresh air. The unique scent of the midnight sea was cold and chilling. Silently, she gazed at the shoreline along the eastern coastline of Viareggio. The waves crashing against the rocks sounded like music to her ears.“So peaceful,” Zenna whispered as she closed her eyes. She inhaled deeply, spreading her arms. She felt like a piece of paper, longing to be carried away by the cold breeze. *Oh, midnight breeze.* She smiled, but her eyes held traces of sadness.She lifted her gaze to the dark sky, illuminated by billions of stars. Taking a deep breath, she slipped off her sandals and walked along the soft, fine sand.It was her last night in Florence. The next day, she would be flying back to the Philippines. The moment she set foot on her homeland, everything in her life would change. She had finally reached the deadline. There was no more time to run from the fate that awaited her.
