Chapter 5

Author: Moore
Once Dante finally fell asleep, Isabella slowly made her way downstairs. She picked up the gift box from the table and put it away with satisfaction.

She had chosen the pair of earrings herself, deliberately swapping out the diamond necklace Dante had meant to give me.

Just as she finished putting the box away, Nico rushed over, wanting to go upstairs to find Dante.

Isabella stopped him. "Don't disturb him. He just fell asleep. He's entrusted everything to me, so you can report directly to me

  • The Overlooked Wife   Chapter 10

    I had thought my life would never intersect with Dante's again, so I was surprised when he appeared before me once more.He looked terrible. His clothes were wrinkled, and he had not even shaved his stubble. It was clear he had paid a heavy price to stand before me."Giulia, I finally found you!" Dante's voice choked with emotion. He took a trembling step forward and reached out to touch my cheek.I coldly stepped back, avoiding his touch. "What are you doing here? I've already received the divorce certificate. We have nothing to do with each other anymore."I paused, then continued coldly, "I also saw your wedding broadcast with Isabella. It was very grand. Congratulations."Panic flashed in Dante's eyes, and he shook his head desperately."You must not have watched till the end. The wedding didn't go through. It was all part of Isabella's scheme to deceive me. It was all fake! She lied to me. She made me think you were just upset. I didn't know you were injured. I didn't know y

    I endured the pain and boarded the plane. Only after confirming the plane had taken off did I allow myself to lose consciousness.When I woke, I was lying in the plane's temporary isolation area. A handsome man with blond hair and blue eyes was bandaging my wound."You're awake? I'm Dr. Andrew Adler. I was seated next to you."He tied the final knot to secure the bandage and frowned, gently scolding me, "Ma'am, you're not taking good care of yourself at all. With an injury this serious, you should be in a hospital, not on this international flight."I weakly thanked him. As for his reproach, I could only offer a helpless smile."If I had a choice, I'd stay in the hospital too. I know that's the best for me." Andrew was gentlemanly enough not to ask further questions. He only teased me playfully, "I've bandaged your wound, but don't move around. Otherwise, if you lose too much blood, I don't have the means to give you a transfusion on this plane."I lay obediently still, as doci

    Only then did Isabella realize she had misspoken. She hurried to cover her mistake."Giulia must have felt she wasn't good enough for you, so she left on her own..."Dante shot a look at his bodyguards. Two of them stepped forward and held Isabella firmly in place."My apologies, everyone. There won't be any ceremony today. You can all leave. I need to deal with a liar who can't stop spewing lies. Does anyone have a problem with that?"His gaze fell on Isabella's father, Lorenzo Marcelli, cold and devoid of any warmth.Lorenzo was so frightened that his breathing hitched. He shook his head frantically. "No, no objections at all. I don't have such a shameless daughter. The Marcelli family disowns her as of now. Whatever you want to do to her, we have no objections!"With that, Lorenzo hurried away with the rest of the family, as if fleeing from some deadly beast."Papa!" Isabella stared at Lorenzo in disbelief. She could not believe her family had abandoned her just like that.

    Isabella was on the verge of a breakdown, and her voice carried a sob. "Even if it's fake, you won't pretend for my sake?"Dante was silent for a moment, then said to her with a look of guilt on his face, "I'm sorry. I can't do it!"After that, he raised his voice, shouting at the cameras all around."The truth is, my wife, Giulia Romano, and I had a fight. This wedding is fake. It's just a tactic to force my wife to appear. If any of you know where she is, I'll reward you handsomely!"Isabella had not expected Dante to pull this stunt. Her heart lurched."Dante, stop this! How is this going to help us find Giulia?""Hello, I might know the Giulia you're looking for—"Isabella's words were interrupted by a timid voice.Dante whipped his head toward the sound and saw a young woman.The woman shrank back slightly. Despite Isabella's warning glare, she mustered her courage and said, "I'm a nurse. Two weeks ago, at the scene of that street shootout, I treated a pregnant woman name

    Dante's gaze grew increasingly tender. "Isabella, you've sacrificed so much for me. I'm sorry!"Isabella wiped her eyes, her voice carrying a slight sob. "I'm fine. Once you and Giulia clear up this misunderstanding, I'd be happier than anyone!"He gripped her hand tightly. "Isabella, don't worry. As long as I'm in Luncy, I won't let anyone bully you!"She leaned into his embrace, the corners of her lips curling with a look of complete confidence.After getting Dante's approval, Isabella secretly changed the engagement ceremony into a wedding ceremony."Have the officiant bring the documents. I want to register my marriage with Dante on the day itself!" Isabella instructed Nico.She made the wedding ceremony extremely grand, inviting nearly all the dignitaries in Luncy to witness this lavish wedding.When Dante and I married, he had just become the mafia boss. His power was not as great as it was now, so our wedding had been very low-key.To this day, many people in Luncy still

The madam boarded a plane yesterday and has already left Eralia. Also, she was caught in a shootout on the street yesterday and lost a child."Oh, and a lawyer just delivered a divorce agreement. The madam hired him to handle the divorce proceedings with the boss..."Isabella froze, then suddenly laughed. She thought to herself, 'Now that's good news!'
