Okay I am really nervous on seeing such a huge crowd for Adriano.I remember as soon as we got out of the car everyone's eyes shifted in our direction.Adriano is glowing with happiness today.He is happy but not as much as he seemed at my birthday.Adriano started the celebration and cut the cake then a huge table was set for dinner and all the women sat near their husbands.For the first time I was seeing women of this family sitting next to their husbands while having dinner.Sofia next to Enzo, Aria next to Dominic and Bella next to Elias.I feel relieved to see Sofia in a good health. She looked healthier than before.And then Dante came late.You arrived so early! I thought of saying that to him, but I better knew not to.

Where were you when your husband took the life of my wife and our unborn child? Where were you when I begged him to let my wife go. Where were you?" He spoke those words and my eyes came out of the socket.What the hell is he even saying?Is he drunk or has he lost his mind?"What?" I was shocked."Don't act innocent, Emilia. Like you have n

The words spoken by Marcus hung in the air like a chilling whisper, cutting through my very soul, leaving me shattered and numb. My brother, Marcus, stood before me, his eyes filled with pain, his voice shook as he confessed the unimaginable truth to me. Adriano, the man whom I married, the man who should be protected me from all the troubles is the one who is constantly hurting me.He, who had sworn his love and devotion, had taken the life of my beloved sister-in-law, Gianna. That's what my brother proved after showing so much proof.A whirlpool of emotions swirled within me, pain, anger, heartbreak, and shock. A part of me still does not want to believe that Gianna is gone.A part of me still does not want to believe that Adriano is in fact a monster.My world crumbled in that moment, as if the ground had fallen from beneath me. I had given Adriano a second chance, believing that the love we shared could fix the cracks in our relationship. But now, it was clear that his monstr
