CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE: AN ASSEST

Ava:The silence that followed was loud.My father stared at Belle with new eyes, and I watched as the realization washed over him. The stark black hair and those dark eyes.“She's a Rossi,” he said slowly, and I didn't miss the way his entire demeanor shifted. The anger melted away, replaced by something more calculating.“She’s not a Rossi.” I declared. “I gave her my mother’s surname.”My father's eyes sharpened. “You what?” He turned to my mother. “Do you know about this?”She evaded the heat of his stare.It didn't take me a moment to realize where this was heading. But of course, what else could I have expected?“She’s Dante’s daughter. His heir.” He said.And there it was. The only thing my father had ever cared about. If it wasn't money, then it had to be status or connections.“Don't.” My voice came out low, dangerous, and fueled with anger. “Don't you dare look at my daughter like she's some kind of asset.”“Ava, do you understand what this means?” He took a step forward, an

CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO: TRY WITH SOMEONE ELSE

Dante:The car pulled to a stop at the driveway of the mansion. Liam reached for his lunchbox, and I grabbed his bag before stepping out and lifting him off the seat.The moment his foot set on the floor, he dashed inside the house, definitely to go in search of his mother.I hadn't wanted to come here anytime soon because I was trying to avoid my mother. I didn't have the mental strength to converse with her again.Especially not since I've come to realize that she was trying to pair me with Georgia, or else there's no reason why she should keep inviting Georgia for dinner and telling me to stop by the house also for dinner.Perhaps she must have taken my words seriously, but I meant everything I told her about trying to get Ava back.I was married, for goodness' sake.The housekeeper nodded at me when I reached the entrance. She took Liam's bag from my hands. “Welcome home. Your mom has been expecting you.”A frown settled on my brow. I wasn't here to speak with my mom; I was here a

CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE: THE CLOSE

Dante:Nat let out a sigh. “So what do you want to do now? Don’t tell me you agreed.”“Technically, I didn't. But I also didn't disagree.” I brushed my fingers on my nose. “I don't exactly have the right to tell her to hold back when I've given her no reason to want to stay.”My sister's shoulders slumped. “You should have told her to. give you time to think about it.”“Think about what?”She shrugged. “To think it through and decide whether you really want it or not.”“Why would I even want to think about that?”Nat palmed her forehead. “Of course I'm not saying you should spend your time thinking about whether you want an open marriage or not. We both know you clearly don't. But telling her that you need to think about it would have given you more time and a chance to find ways to fix things between you too. Don't tell me you're going to just give up on her so easily.”That couldn't happen; I couldn't even bring myself to. I wanted to prove to her that I do deserve a chance.“I'm no

CHAPTER THIRTY-FOUR: TERRIFIED

Ava:Belle and I arrived early to school the next day. I was beginning to grow accustomed to coming early just so I could avoid having to meet Dante at the gates.I glanced down at Belle, who was jumping in her steps while swinging my hands with hers. “Be careful so you don’t miss a step.”She nodded. “I wanted to ask… Is Daddy coming over today?”I bit down on my lips. “I don't know, sweetheart. But I don't think so.”“Oh,” she stopped skipping, and her steps faltered, but I was quick to hold her tightly.“I told you to be careful,” I said, crouching to her height. “You almost missed a step, and you wouldn't have landed on the floor.”She gave me a cheeky smirk. “But you caught me.”I sighed and shook my head lightly before standing straight and holding her as we made our way into the premises.Just before we could get to the gate, I caught sight of Belle glancing around the whole place.She suddenly shouted, “Oh my God, he’s here! I knew he'd be here.”Her giggle was infectious, and

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE: NOT ACCEPTING YOU BACK

Ava:The same man I had wanted to avoid meeting at the school gates ended up walking down with me to my classroom, with Liam and Belle walking in front of us and giggling about something.We stopped first in Belle’s class, and I dropped her lunchbox and schoolbag on the shelves allocated to her before we walked down to my class, where Liam did the same thing on his shelf.Belle's fingers were intertwined with mine when she suddenly pulled away, her gaze falling on Liam. It was as if they were finally meeting each other that morning. “Hi, chipmunk.”Belle rolled her eyes. “Daddy, can you tell Liam to stop calling me a chipmunk? I look nothing like one.”“Liam,” Dante warned, not exactly saying anything.Liam chuckled to himself, “Alright. I’ll stop.”Just like that, the air between us, which had been stiff, finally relaxed as the kids kept bantering.“Do you want to see my painting?” Belle suddenly asked a little while later.Liam's ears' attention was pulled by that, and his eyes wide

CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX: DANTE'S MOTHER

Chapter 36: Dante’s Mother Ava:I wanted to look away; I really wanted to, but I couldn't even bring myself to stare away from his face.I already told him I wasn't accepting him back, at least not so fast and so soon; he needed to prove to me that he deserved a chance, so why on earth was I leaning closer to him?His eyes dropped to my lips.My breath hitched, and I watched his jaw tighten in response. I leaned closer until there was barely any space left.Almost instinctively, Dante's fingers slid down to rest at the small of my back, pulling me closer to him.Our breaths mingled in the air.I should have stepped away, but my body had other plans.His other hand came up, and his fingers grazed my cheek before tucking a loose strand of hair behind my ear. The touch was featherlight, but it sent heat flooding through me.“Ava.” Dante's voice was hoarse.My hands found his chest, and I could feel his heart pounding beneath my palms.His thumb traced along my jawline, tipping my face u

CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN: SHE'S A ROSSI

Ava:I couldn't just grab Belle and start running; that wouldn't make sense, because she already saw us.So trying to run away would be a future attempt, and it would only end up leading her to where I lived.My life has been peaceful over the years, and I didn't want to destroy that by showing her the way to my place.So I simply stopped walking, holding onto Belle tightly.Her long dark burgundy dress brightened under the sunlight, and the closer she got, the clearer I noticed the haughty look she was looking at me with.Mrs. Rossi stopped in front of us, and her gaze dropped to Belle before she glanced up at me with a harmless smile.“Ava, it’s been a while. How have you been?” Her voice was soft, and she sounded way nicer than I remembered, but I’d be a fool to take her tone for it.My face remained blank, not breaking into a smile. “What do you want?”I didn't want to think about it, but the image of me standing stranded and lost before her tugged at the back of my mind.She tilt

CHAPTER THIRTY-EIGHT: PROTECTIVE

Ava:I tried to regain my composure, but it was becoming too difficult.I didn't want to see these people anymore. Especially not around my daughter.Belle had no idea what was going on, and as we exchanged words, she kept on looking back and forth. And trying so hard to understand.I wish I did too.My hands wrapped gently around her wrists, brushing the back of her hands slightly to keep her calm.Mrs. Rossi's eyes dropped to my daughter and then back at me again. “Dante will do what's best for his daughter. And what's best is for her to be raised as a Rossi, with all the privileges and opportunities that entails.”Her smile turned cold, sending an eerie feeling down my skin. “I'm giving you a choice, Ava. You can make this easy, or you can make this difficult. But the outcome will be the same. The child you had with Dante will end up in the arms of people she deserves to be with.” Her eyes went down on me with so much pride in them. “Not you.”“Mommy?” Belle's small voice cut throu

CHAPTER THIRTY-NINE: LITTLE MISS BELLE

Ava:By the time we got back home, I was utterly worn out.I pressed my fingers into my eyes as Belle and I walked inside before I locked the door behind us.Surprisingly, Belle was quiet, which was very unusual. She didn't say anything at all while we were on our way.I had loved the white moment for only a few minutes before it started feeling weird. I wasn't used to my daughter not saying anything.“Belle, are you alright?” I asked as I dropped my bag on the couch and turned to her.She climbed on one of the couches and then turned to me with a weird look, like she didn't understand what I meant. “Hmm?” She tilted her head.“Are you alright? You said nothing on our way here.” I told her, watching her confused expression like she had no idea what I was even trying to say.“Except for the fact that I was too hungry to talk but thought it would be best to wait till we get home before I can tell you?” She muttered sheepishly, and I couldn't help it; a chuckle escaped my lips.“We could

CHAPTER FOURTY: LOOK AT ME

Ava:“Would you let me have a word?” He took a step closer, reaching out to me, but I flinched and reacted too fast, slapping his hands off before he could touch me.The big bouquet of yellow and red roses fell to the floor, and we both glanced down at the same time.Dante picked them up carefully. When he straightened, there was something in his eyes that looked like pain.“I'm sorry,” he said gently and took a slow step backward. “I won't touch you. Just please. Talk to me.”God, he was too good at pretending; I could have been fooled by the surrender in his eyes.“I can't believe I even trusted you. It just has been fun when you lied to my face and saw my walls breaking because a part of me tried to understand you. But all you've been doing is lying, continuously, and staring at me with those eyes like you're the one hurt and in pain.”“Ava.”“Just let me be!”“Ava,” he called again, and every time he called my name, his voice became softer and gentler.“I can't do this.” I shook m
