“It’s nice to meet you, Ms. Valencia, Ms. Dougherty. You’re both just as pretty as our mom,” Nina said sweetly.

Nico followed her lead and politely greeted them as well.

Carla Dougherty smiled softly. “Nice to meet you too.”

Carolina Valencia lit up the moment she saw them. “Oh my God! What a pair of adorable kids! Come here—let me hug you!”

Nina instantly took a liking to Carolina and happily let her hold her. Carla, worried that Nico might feel left out, reached out to hug him as we

    “Don’t be angry,” Lorenza said gently. “Forget those unpleasant people. If they’re not suitable partners, then we simply won’t work with them. Even without them, you’re still one of the most powerful men in Milano.” She paused, then smiled. “Since we’re already in San Celestino, let’s treat it like a vacation. Zoe and Sharon Morreti are here too. We could have a nice dinner together.” Leonardo felt slightly relieved by her words. “Sharon is back in Milano?” After the Marchesi and Taddei families went bankrupt, the Moretti family had risen to become the wealthiest in Milano. Sharon Moretti, their only daughter, had been Lorenza’s closest friend since childhood. She had gone abroad after university and only returned occasionally. “Yes,” Lorenza replied. “I heard she’s not leaving again. I already made plans with them. Shall we go?” “Sure,” Leonardo said, about to agree. Just then, his driver, Gianni Paggio, reminded him, “Mr. Marchesi, Nico and Nina are already in San Celestino.”

    This was San Celestino, not Milano. Leonardo Marchesi was certain these people would never truly respect him. Valerie set down her glass and said to Lucia, “Let’s return to our seats at the main table.” At the same time, Liora leaned in and whispered, “Your parents just arrived.” Lucia looked up. Some last minute issues had delayed Matteo and Rina, but they were finally here. The three women left together. Stefano, however, did not move. His gaze remained fixed on Lorenza. The message was unmistakable. If she did not leave, she would continue to be watched. Lorenza could no longer endure it. She stood and hurried out of the Donati estate. Stefano gestured politely. “Mr. Marchesi, please return to your seat.” Leonardo had no choice. Leaving now would offend the Donovan family. Swallowing his anger, he returned to the men’s section. Alone in the car, Lorenza finally broke down. Tears streamed down her face as she felt every shred of her dignity collapse. That day would haunt

    Leonardo remained rational even at a moment like this. He knew very well that he could not break the Donovan family’s rules. “What’s wrong with sitting there?” he said calmly. “Men and women are seated separately.” Lorenza clenched her fists. “But I don’t know anyone there. It’s so awkward.” “A little solitude isn’t a bad thing,” Leonardo replied. The maid glanced between them and reminded politely, “Sir, ma’am, Mrs. Donovan Senior is about to come out.” Her gaze lingered, disapproving. These two were clearly unfamiliar with proper etiquette. “All right,” Leonardo said, signaling Lorenza to return to her seat. She walked back to the women’s section, glancing over her shoulder again and again. Nearby businessmen chuckled quietly. “She’s clearly not suited to be a wife.” “Exactly. Even if she’s just a secretary, Mr. Marchesi shouldn’t have brought someone who doesn’t understand basic rules.” “Mrs. Donovan Senior is here.” All eyes in the garden turned in unison. Luciana Ba

    Lorenza was shifting the blame again. However, Lucia did not give her the chance. “The only one who will look bad here is you,” Lucia said calmly. “You are forcing yourself into a world that was never yours. Don’t expect to escape the consequences.” Giving Lorenza the invitation had never been an act of kindness or foolish generosity. Lucia had simply thought that if Lorenza insisted on humiliating herself, there was no reason to stop her. Tears spilled from Lorenza’s eyes instantly. “I know you have an honored guest invitation from Damiano and the Bianchi family, but why humiliate me like this? I have never done anything against you. You like Leonardo Marchesi, and I never competed with you for him. Yet you still treat me this way
” The women around them, unaware that Lucia was married to Leonardo, blinked in surprise. Lucia liked Leonardo? Lucia’s cold gaze swept across them. The women immediately lowered their heads, feigning ignorance and carefully hiding their curiosity.

    Lucia curved her lips into a charming smile and said lightly, “A phone call can never compare to meeting in person.” “That’s true,” Liora replied. Then her gaze shifted sharply to the doctor beside her. “Quick, take her pulse. If she really is pregnant, she’ll need proper care. The Donovan family will not tolerate any accidents.” Lorenza clenched her teeth and slowly extended her hand. Dr. Morreti checked her pulse. After barely three seconds, she said calmly, “You’re not pregnant. You’re experiencing menstrual irregularities. The symptoms can easily be mistaken for pregnancy.” Liora casually picked up an orange from the fruit platter. “Since you’re already checking, you might as well give her some advice on how to regulate it.” Lorenza tried to pull her hand back, but Dr. Morreti held it firmly. She was clearly experienced. “Your irregular cycle is related to your lifestyle. Your organs are slightly weak.” Lorenza struggled harder, her face flushing with humiliat

    When the call ended, Liora had just finished dinner. Her husband, Zayne Marchetti, glanced at her expression and frowned slightly. “What’s with that look?” “Damiano wants me to deal with a woman,” Liora replied, wiping her hands with a towel as she rose from the table. Zayne raised an eyebrow. “There’s actually a woman who can piss him off?” That alone sounded unbelievable. First, Damiano rarely interacted with women outside of work. Second, for him to be angered, he would have to care. And that was even rarer. What kind of woman could possibly catch Damiano’s attention—let alone provoke him? “You wouldn’t understand,” Liora said quietly, lowering her gaze. Once, by pure accident, she had discovered one of Damiano’s deepest secrets. To this day, she had never dared speak of it aloud. Liora turned slightly and gestured to Zayne. “Look into a woman named Lorenza Tommaso. She’ll be attending Mrs. Donovan Senior’s birthday banquet as well.” Zayne nodded. “Alright.” Lorenza
