Chapter 7

作者: Watermelon
I opened my eyes and realized that I was lying in bed. I jolted upright, only to find my body covered in suggestive marks. I was overcome by a sense of revulsion as I hurried to the bathroom to retch.

It was then that the door opened. Logan leaned against the doorway, wearing a robe and holding a glass of water. He looked relaxed and satisfied, bearing the look of someone who had gotten exactly what they wanted. "You're finally up, Mariella. How are you feeling?"

"What did you do to me?"

  • Reborn: I'll Do This Myself, Thanks   Chapter 10

    Mariella's Point-of-ViewIn a serene study of a hillside manor across the city, sunlight filtered through the tall windows. I stood by the window, watching Papa carefully prune the roses in the garden, while Stefano stood silently behind me.I gradually recovered under the meticulous care of the top medical team, and the cut on my lower abdomen had healed, leaving just a faint mark that would gradually fade over time."These just came in, Ms. Lombardi," Stefano said as he placed the documents on the desk. They were the official confirmation of Lane Group's bankruptcy and liquidation, along with briefings on Yvonne's death from her injuries and Logan's sentence to life in prison.I looked over the documents, my demeanor composed. "Thank you for all these years, Stefano."There was a brief stillness behind me before Stefano spoke up. "I did all of these because it's my duty—and it's something I'm willing to do on my end."It was then that someone gently knocked and opened the door.

    Logan's Point-of-ViewLogan was tied up in a chair, while Stefano stood before him, his expression frigid."You'd better let me go this instant! You're committing an abduction! I'll call the police on you! It appears that Mariella—that bitch—has indeed conspired with her lover!" Logan yelled, thrashing against his restraints.Stefano stepped forward and kicked him squarely in the chest.Logan toppled over with the chair, but a wicked look of triumph crossed his face. "You're already too late! Your unborn child with Mariella is already gone!"It was then that the sound of heavy footsteps echoed from deep within the warehouse, and a dignified, gray-haired man appeared. He glanced at Logan, as if he were regarding trash, before asking Stefano, "Is this the piece of filth who harmed my daughter, Stefano?"Stefano nodded and replied, "Yes, Don Lombardi."Logan's pupils dilated with sudden terror. He recognized the middle-aged man before him. He was none other than the Don of the Lo

    It was a house arrest, but I could move freely within the villa, provided that I didn't go outside. Logan would return daily with a jubilant expression, enthusiastically designing the nursery.I never responded to him, merely gazing out the window. Logan attributed my silence to a fit of pique and remained indifferent.I suddenly heard the sound of items being destroyed downstairs one afternoon, followed by Logan's roar. "Damn it! How dare they! Lombardi Group has been our primary partner for ten years now! How could they just terminate our cooperation without any warning? Go find out who's responsible for it this instant!"I then heard the sound of hurried footsteps going back and forth.In the end, a somber atmosphere pervaded the villa throughout the afternoon. It wasn't until Logan stormed out and slammed the door behind him that the household staff finally felt a sense of reprieve.…Logan's Point-of-ViewLogan paced his office in a blind rage. Yvonne entered hesitantly, he

He looked relaxed and satisfied, bearing the look of someone who had gotten exactly what they wanted. "You're finally up, Mariella. How are you feeling?""What did you do to me?"Logan cocked his brow, as if entertained by the question. "You want to know what I did, huh? You and I are married, Mariella, so it's only natural for a husband to love his wife." "You raped me!" I grabbed the drinking glass off the counter and hurled it at him.He stepped aside, effortlessly dodging it. He then chuckled softly as he gripped my chin, saying, "You ought to know that's just a marital obligation in the eyes of the law, Mariella. You can go ahead and try to report it. I'd like to see

    Logan's Point-of-ViewIt wasn't long before an enraged Logan stormed into the hospital director's office, demanding that Mariella be fired, only for the hospital director to inform him, "Dr. Lazzari handed in her resignation earlier today, Mr. Lane."Logan's anger instantly subsided, thinking that it was good that Mariella had resigned. He recalled her saying that her ultimate goal was a life of idle luxury as a socialite wife. He assumed that because the conflict had escalated so severely, Mariella had become intimidated and was resigning as a gesture of submission.He approved of this newfound pragmatism. He could practically envision me dejected and repentant, a flicker of satisfaction rising within him. He mused that it would have been better if Mariella had done so sooner.He adjusted his tie, intending to return and accept Mariella's repentance. He believed, after all, that he had consistently treated Mariella with great indulgence.It was then that the hospital director sud

    In the days that followed, Logan played the part of the penitent. He sent me expensive gifts every day, aiming to settle my temper.I didn't accept any of them, though. I remained indifferent as the gifts stacked up.Logan's displays of sincerity grew. He no longer just sent gifts and flowers to my office; he sent them to my colleagues, the doctors, nurses, and even the janitors. In that instant, the stares from those around me turned from pity to envy, then finally to words of advice."Mr. Lane is so considerate.""It is normal for men to make mistakes from time to time.""What more do you want from a man who is rich and is willing to humble himself before you, Dr. Lazzari?" There were several nurses eating the pastries Logan sent, and one of them even said, "You ought to know that forgiveness is a virtue in marriage, Dr. Lazzari. He is, after all, a successful and generous man."I remained expressionless, dumping the flowers into the medical waste bin and returning the unop
