Chapter 9

Author: Jojo
Like seeing a lifeline, Elena immediately lunged at Sergio. "Sergio, you're finally here! Janella's gone crazy! She slapped me and twisted the truth to slander me. You have to get revenge for me!"

But Sergio shrugged her off without a trace of pity. There was only cold disgust in his eyes.

"Don't touch me, you slut! You think I filed for divorce because of Janella? I'm done with your lies and malice. You think I don't know how many people you have been seeing behind my back? Do you think I'm blind?"

Elena collapsed to the floor, trembling. "Y-You knew all along?"

"Yeah, and that's not all that I know. I even know the baby you were pregnant with wasn't mine! You've been lying to me this whole time!"

With that, as if unable to suppress the rage within him, he slapped Elena across the face.

Sergio's gaze swept over Elena on the ground before finally resting on me. His tone softened as he said, "Janella, I'm sorry. I was blinded by her words back then and betrayed you and Luca. I reg

    Sergio kept talking to himself for a long time before he suddenly begged me to keep the house. He even offered the Lorusso family in exchange.Even at my lowest, I never thought about making money off that house."Cut the act, Sergio. Mi disgusti. You slept with the woman Luca cherished, then stepped all over me. And yet you have the nerve to put on a show here?"After saying that, I left the cafe without another glance at him.But that same day, Sergio went home and coldly told Elena he wanted a divorce with no room for discussion.Elena snapped completely.First, she tracked down my home and blocked the entrance, only to be dragged away by the Soldati. Then, she began bombarding me with calls and texts from a relentless stream of unknown numbers."Janella, you filthy bitch! Did you seduce Sergio? Why else would he suddenly want a divorce? Just you wait! I'm going to make your life a living hell!"I ignored the hateful insults and blocked all those numbers.I thought her madn

    I clenched my fists so hard that my nails dug into my palms. I didn't dare meet Fabio's and Zarina's eyes."I know my past is messy, but I—""Don't say that!" Zarina cut me off abruptly and stepped forward to hug me. Her warm embrace brought tears to my eyes.Her voice trembled with anger and sorrow. "Janella, we're the ones who should be sorry. If only we had come back sooner, none of this would have happened to you."It's not your fault. You never should have gone through all that. Trust me, we'll make those who have hurt you pay."As I leaned into Zefiro's embrace, I watched my new family stand up for me with such fierce indignation. My tears fell again.This time, they weren't tears of pain, but of pure happiness.Zefiro bent down and kissed my forehead before saying softly, "I promised you that you won't be alone anymore. Now you have all of us."I finally decided to sell that old house.Though it held precious memories of Luca and me, it was also a constant reminder of t

    I thought no one was coming to save me. But unexpectedly, Zefiro came alone.He shielded me tightly, taking the bullet meant for me in his left leg.I never thought my heart would ever pound like this again, not after it had been dead to the world for so long. It turned out that besides Luca, someone else was willing to risk his life for me.I walked away unharmed, but Zefiro was left with a wounded leg.During his hospital stay, I stayed by his side every day. As he lay in bed, his sharp edge of a Don vanished, replaced by a touch of awkwardness.When I peeled an apple for him, he'd just stare at my hands, lost in thought.When I changed his bandages and saw the ugly scar, my nose would sting, but he'd pat my hand to comfort me instead.One day, I gathered courage and said, "Luca once told me to find someone who would risk their life for me. I used to think he was the only one in the world who would until I met you. You gave me the courage to love again, Zefiro. Will you marry

    "What?" Sergio shrieked.His pupils snapped wide as he stepped forward to grab my wrist, but Zefiro calmly blocked him."Janella, you told me you've been alone all this time!" Sergio accused fiercely.Feeling the warmth of Zefiro's hand, I smiled softly as I replied, "I never said that. That was just your wishful thinking. Zefiro and I are getting married soon."Elena, eyeing our simple clothes, covered her mouth and chuckled. "Janella, you actually chose some broke guy like him? I bet you two can't even afford a house. Oh, is that why you're back in this dump?"Sergio's gaze landed on Zefiro's stiff left leg, and his voice suddenly rose to a shout."Janella, have you lost your mind? I'll never allow you to be with him. You can't marry a cripple just to spite me! Look at him! He can't even protect himself. How can he protect you? As Luca's best friend, I can't let you make such a reckless mistake!"Elena caught the note of concern in Sergio's voice, and a flash of resentment fla

    "Ugh!"As I looked at the scene before me, my first reaction was pure nausea. It was disgusting.Luca's chest rose and fell slowly. Every single breath seemed to require every ounce of strength he had left.His lips were cracked and pale, making it obvious that no one had cared for him in a long time.The muscles on his arms, once muscular and firm, were now sunken and misshapen.This was the man who used to rip guns from enemies' hands and lift heavy crates of weapons with ease. Now, he looked fragile and broken.Sergio and Elena hadn't just neglected Luca. They took advantage of his vegetative state, fooling around right at his bedside.My tears burst forth instantly. Like a person possessed, I charged forward, grabbed Elena by the hair, and wrenched her out of Sergio's arms."This is what you call loyalty?" I screeched.While struggling, Elena screamed, "Janella, I know I betrayed you and Luca, but I'm still young! I don't want to spend my life taking care of a man who's ba
