The Moretti mansion had never felt so peaceful.

At least, that was what Isabella believed.

She moved around the kitchen humming softly, occasionally breaking into a little song as she stirred a pot on the stove.

For the first time in days, she felt hopeful.

She had visited Regina.

She had apologized.

And Regina had listened.

She hadn't screamed.

She hadn't insulted her.

She hadn't thrown her out.

  • The Second Chance He Didn't Deserve    Friends Who Stand Beside You

    Regina pushed open the door to her office and immediately stopped.A smile appeared on her face.Katherine was standing near her desk, holding a framed family photograph.The photograph showed Regina standing between Luca and Damien while Alessandro stood proudly behind them.All four of them were smiling.Katherine stared at the picture with affection."You know," she said without turning around, "every time I see this picture, I remember how protective those two were of you in school."Regina laughed softly."They still are."Katherine finally turned around.The moment their eyes met, both women smiled.For a second, neither moved.Then Katherine walked forward and kissed Regina on both cheeks.Regina returned the greeting."It feels like I haven't seen you in weeks," Katherine said."You saw me two days ago.""That's practically weeks."Regina laughed and shook her head."You're impossible.""I know."Katherine placed the photograph back on the desk.Then her expression softened.W

  • The Second Chance He Didn't Deserve    What Really Happened

    Katherine Midas had never been the kind of woman who deliberately listened to other people's conversations.She preferred minding her own business.But sometimes, a conversation landed in your ears whether you wanted it to or not.That afternoon, Katherine was sitting at a table near the window of an elegant café in Manhattan. She had ordered a light lunch and was scrolling through her phone when laughter from the table behind her caught her attention.She recognized one of the voices.Kate Moretti.Katherine slowly lowered her phone.She wasn't trying to listen.But then she heard Regina's name.Her attention sharpened immediately."...I'm telling you, Robin has completely lost his mind," Kate said.Katherine's fingers tightened around her phone.One of Kate's friends laughed."What did he do?""He went to Regina's workplace this morning."Katherine's expression changed."What?"Kate continued."He went there to beg her to take him back."Katherine's heart began beating faster.She t

  • The Second Chance He Didn't Deserve    The Call That Went Unanswered

    Scarlett had been smiling all morning.She had woken up believing that something had changed between her and Robin.The previous night had given her hope.For months, she had watched Robin struggle with Regina. She had watched him become increasingly frustrated, angry, and desperate.Now Regina was gone.The divorce had been filed.And Robin had spent the night with her.To Scarlett, it felt like the beginning of something she had been waiting for.She sat at her mother's house that morning, scrolling through her phone and rereading the last few messages between herself and Robin.A smile kept appearing on her face.She imagined what would happen next.Perhaps Robin would call.Perhaps he would ask her to meet him.Perhaps he would finally tell her that he wanted her.She waited.Ten o'clock came.Nothing.Eleven.Still nothing.By noon, Scarlett's smile had disappeared.She picked up her phone.She called Robin.The phone rang.And rang.No answer.Scarlett frowned.She tried again.

  • The Second Chance He Didn't Deserve    The Mistakes We Make

    Robin drove home that morning with his hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly that his knuckles had turned white.His mind was still trapped in the parking lot outside Regina's office.He could still see her walking away.She hadn't looked back.Not once.He had begged her.He had called her name.He had reminded her that they had once been married.And she had simply walked inside and left him standing there.The humiliation burned inside him.But beneath the anger was something worse.Regret.Robin knew exactly why Regina was no longer his wife.He had filed for divorce.He had been the one who decided their marriage was over.He had been the one who believed he wanted Scarlett.He had been the one who thought Regina was an unwanted responsibility that stood between him and the life he imagined for himself.Now that Regina was free from him, he suddenly wanted her back.And she had every right to refuse.Robin slammed his fist against the steering wheel."Why did I do this?"H

  • The Second Chance He Didn't Deserve    You can't make me come back

    The morning came far too quickly for Robin Moretti.He had barely slept.After leaving the hotel, he had driven around New York without any real destination. His mind was a mess of regret, anger, desperation, and an obsession he couldn't seem to control.He had spent the entire night thinking about Regina.He remembered the woman she had been when they were married.Quiet.Patient.Always waiting for him.Always trying to make him happy.He had taken all of it for granted.Now she wouldn't even look at him.By sunrise, Robin had convinced himself of one thing.He needed to see her.Immediately.He didn't shower.He didn't change his clothes.He didn't even bother going home.He drove straight to Regina's company.The same company she now owned.The same building where employees greeted her with respect.The same place where she had become someone he could no longer control.Robin parked his car in the underground parking area and waited.He sat behind the steering wheel for almost an

  • The Second Chance He Didn't Deserve    The Price Of Power

    The Moretti mansion had never felt so quiet.Giovanni sat alone in his study, staring at the documents spread across his desk.The words were simple.The consequences were not.The Romano partnership was over.The joint ventures would be dissolved.Their shared interests would be separated.The Moretti family would keep what legally belonged to them, but the invisible network that had protected their businesses for decades was disappearing.Giovanni understood what that meant better than anyone.Money was not the only thing that built an empire.Reputation mattered.Connections mattered.Fear mattered.And Alessandro Romano had possessed all three.For years, when someone considered doing business with the Morettis, they knew one thing.The Romanos stood beside them.That name had opened doors.It had prevented competitors from challenging them.It had made people think twice before crossing them.Now that protection was gone.Giovanni leaned back in his chair and sighed.They would n
