Report
On our tenth year anniversary, I'm making out with my husband, Don Raimondo Brocchi, in his office. Just as I'm about to secretly slip the pregnancy report into his hand as a surprise, his secretary, Anna Altamura, walks into the office. We're forced to stop our makeout session. Meanwhile, Anna shoots me a provocative look before she begins chatting with Raimondo in fluent Italese. "Don Brocchi, who do you like more in bed? Me or the Donna?" Raimondo lets out a soft chuckle. The vibrations of his voice makes my back crawl with numbness. "You, of course. After all, you're younger and tighter, amore. Meanwhile, Cassia is already 30 years old." Haughtily, Anna picks up a document before returning to her seat. What they don't know is that my Nonno hails from Sicaria. That means I understand each and every Italese word they just said. After forcing myself to calm down, I locate the invitation mailed from Anworth Institute that comes with a permanent position in my inbox. Then, I key in a short response to the person in charge. I agree to travel to the institution. Before my trip, I will make sure to terminate everything that belongs to me.

After I dumped all the food Raimondo made into the trash, he disappeared from my sight for a while, though I knew him well enough to know he wouldn't give up just yet.Quitting simply wasn't in his nature. Instead, he was good at ruthless persistence and temporary retreats. Sure enough, only a few days later, he appeared in every corner of my life again.In the mornings, when I took the baby out for a walk, I would run into Raimondo sitting on a bench with a cup of coffee in hand. He never approached. He only watched the baby and me from a distance, greed and pain burning openly in his eyes.When I went shopping for baby supplies, I would spot him on the opposite side of the aisle, pretending to browse products.At some point, through methods I didn't want to imagine, he had even managed to secure himself a sponsor position at Anworth Institute, where I worked.A few times, after leaving the lab with teaching materials in my arms, I would see him standing in the hallway pretending

The very next minute after parting ways with Lina, Raimondo's Consigliere called him and relayed every suspicion he had.On the other end of the line, Raimondo fell silent for a long time. The pause stretched so long that even the Consigliere couldn't tell whether he was overwhelmed with excitement or furious at the fact that it had taken him so long to find me when I had been so close all this time."Ms. Serafini just left. Our men are already following her," the Consigliere said. He hesitated before asking, "Do you want us to bring her to you?"Raimondo refused almost instantly. "No. Stay on her tail. I want to know exactly where she goes, who she meets, and where she lives. Within 12 hours, I want every single detail on every employee in that startup."…That afternoon, Lina returned from the city after finalizing the major deal. Her expression was noticeably heavier than usual.She set her bag down, and unlike her usual excitement about contract details, she went straight int

Cassia's POVIt had been a few months since I left Raimondo, yet I still occasionally looked myself up online to check for news.At first, there were a few posts mourning my death. But little by little, even those disappeared. My name stopped circulating on the internet. Quietly, I was erased from everyone's memory.I rented a studio apartment near Anworth Institute. Everyone there was busy with their own lives, too tied up to care about a neighbor's past.Sometimes, I would drag a chair out onto the balcony and sit in the sun. The light was warm and full, wrapping around my body like a cozy blanket.With my eyes closed, I kept trying to make myself forget everything from the past. I wanted to erase the ten years I had spent with Raimondo.I knew it would be hard to forget him, and I understood that, at best, I was only forcing him out of the life I was going to live from now on.Whenever I fell asleep or let my guard down, his presence would slip into my mind without warning.

Raimondo's POVA sharp ringing filled my ears, drowning out everything around me. It was as if I had lost all sensation at once. I could barely even feel the floor beneath my feet.No. This couldn't be real. Cassia wouldn't be in an accident. She had to be playing some kind of prank on me, a test to see whether I still cared about her!I staggered out of the club while Anna called after me, but even her voice faded into a blur. Only one thought remained in my mind.I had to find Cassia, no matter what.I ran to the garage, started the car engine, and sped toward the helicopter pickup point like a man possessed. Even after boarding the helicopter, all I could think about was the gentle look on her face when she handed me the gift box.Damn it.Why didn't I send someone with her? Why did I let her board the jet alone? Why didn't I insist she stay and have the butler check the gift instead?My fist slammed into my own body in frustration.Why now of all times? I shouldn't have

Raimondo's car stopped in front of a villa.Anna, wrapped in a nightgown, was already waiting outside. The moment she saw him, she threw herself into his arms and kissed him like they couldn't stand being apart for even a breath."Don Brocchi, you've already spent three hours and fifteen minutes w

At the doorway, Raimondo stood with a deep frown, so drunk he had to brace himself against the frame to stay upright.I quickly ended the call with Lina, walked over, and helped him onto the bed before undoing his clothes. He grabbed my wrist, his dark eyes locking onto mine, as if trying to pry in

Seeing that I had set the cake down without taking a bite, Raimondo Brocchi reached for my hand and stroked it gently. "What's wrong, amore mio? Not feeling well?"I looked into his concerned eyes, put my phone away, and forced down the revulsion churning inside me. Then, I curled my lips into a fa
