FAVINO PENTHOUSE – MORNING

TWO WEEKS LATER

Amelia was sitting at the dining table with Leo, watching him eat his cereal, when Maria rushed in, breathless and clearly shaken.

“Mrs. Favino… they’re here,” Maria said quickly.

Amelia frowned. “Who?”

“Mr. Favino’s mother… and his sisters. All of them. And they’re… not calm.”

Amelia’s chair scraped against the floor as she stood. “Marisa is back? I thought Alejandro told her to stay in Spain.”

“She didn’t listen,” Maria said in a lower voice. “And s

    A collective gasp swept through the garden. Gabriella shook her head violently. “No. No, you can’t do this. You love me.”Alejandro looked at her with disappointment. “I thought I did.”Alejandro dropped the ring into Gabriella’s trembling hand, but after a moment, his expression changed. He looked at her for several seconds before letting out a quiet sigh.“But on second thought, maybe the devil you know is better than the angel you don’t know. Gabriella, everything you did, you did because you wanted me. You were betrothed to me when we were little kids. We were supposed to grow up and get married, but I broke that engagement and married my brother’s widow, Amelia, instead. So I can’t completely blame you for fighting for me. You wanted the man you were promised to, and you were willing to do whatever it took to have me.”Serena’s mouth fell open. She stared at her brother as if he had completely lost his mind. “What the hell are you saying? Are you insane?”Alejandro ignored her an

    Gabriella nodded, tears gathering in her eyes as she looked at Alejandro. “Yes. Everything I did, I did for us. I wanted you, and I wanted the life we have now. I thought if Amelia was out of the way, we could finally be together.”Alejandro let out a bitter laugh and shook his head. “For us? You keep saying that like what you did was some kind of sacrifice. There is no ‘us,’ Gabriella. Not anymore.”Marisa sat in her wheelchair, her face twisted with rage as she watched everything fall apart. She pointed angrily at Amelia and shouted, “You’ll regret this! You’ll regret coming here and ruining my son’s wedding!”Amelia slowly touched her cheek. The spot where Marisa had slapped her was still red and stinging, but she refused to shed a single tear. Instead, a small smile appeared on her face. It was calm and cold enough to make Marisa’s anger falter.“Thank you,” Amelia said.Marisa frowned, clearly confused by her response. “Thank you? What the hell are you thanking me for?”Amelia re

    Amelia stopped and slowly turned around. Marisa’s face was filled with rage as she rolled her wheelchair closer, her eyes burning with anger.“You think you can walk into my son’s wedding, accuse everyone of things you know nothing about, and then simply leave?” “I know exactly what happened,” Amelia replied calmly. “You know nothing!” Marisa snapped. She rolled even closer before taking a shaky breath. “I know who poisoned Gabriella.” Amelia’s eyes narrowed immediately. Marisa studied her for a moment before continuing in a colder voice. “But it wasn’t what you think.” Alejandro stared at his mother in confusion. “Mom?” Marisa ignored him and kept her eyes on Amelia. “It was a plan.” Amelia frowned. “What plan?” “A plan created by me and Gabriella,” Marisa admitted. Gabriella’s face went completely pale. “Mother…” But Marisa continued as though she hadn’t heard her. “We wanted to drive you away.” The garden erupted in shocked whispers. Amelia stood frozen, staring at Marisa

    Amelia stared at him in disbelief. For a moment, she said nothing. She just looked at him. This man she had once loved. This man she had married. This man who had promised to protect her, to stand by her, to love her until death.Then she laughed. It was a short, humorless laugh. The kind of laugh that comes out when something is so ridiculous, so insulting, that you don't know what else to do."You really are unbelievable," she said.Alejandro frowned. "What?""You think this is about money?"Her voice rose as she stepped closer to him. Her heels clicked against the stone path. Her eyes were blazing. "You think you can throw a few million dollars at me and suddenly everything disappears? Like none of it ever happened? Like I didn't spend months in prison for something I didn't do?"She pointed at him. Her hand was shaking with rage. "You sent me divorce papers while I was carrying your child. While I was pregnant with your twins. You believed every single lie that woman told you abou

    Everyone turned toward Alejandro. He looked at Amelia coldly. “Whatever happened between you and Gabriella, you don’t get to storm into my wedding, accuse her in front of everyone, and expect me to simply believe you.”Amelia raised an eyebrow, her anger rising“Whatever happened? I was your fucking wife, Alejandro. You brought divorce papers to me while I was carrying your child in prison . Do you even remember that?”Alejandro’s jaw tightened, but Amelia didn’t stop.“I never wanted to marry you in the first place. You forced me into that marriage, then you stood there and watched everything fall apart. You sent me to prison, and I’ve spent more time behind bars than I ever deserved because of you and the people you trusted.”Her voice shook with rage as she stepped closer.“And now you’re standing here telling me I have no right to come between you and Gabriella?” She let out a bitter laugh. “Of course I have the right! You were my husband!”Before Alejandro could respond, Amelia slap
