Chapter Forty-OneMia's POV "You have barely touched your pasta. I thought this was your favorite restaurant. Or did I get it wrong? I have heard you always talk about this place. If the food isn't good, we can go somewhere else." Matteo tried to stand up, but I touch his hand, stopping him from doing so. The restaurant nor the food wasn't the problem. He was right. This was my favorite place of having a meal, even though I had no idea how much Matteo knew. I guess he was really paying attention to me whenever I am talking. I wished it was the restaurant though. The only thing on my mind was what Alessandro De Luca wanted. I know I shouldn't trust that man but he proposed a really tempting offer, and I didn't know how to say no to him. But I also knew that making a deal with Mateo's father was not something I should be doing. He was manipulative, cunning, and selfish and I have no idea how Mateo would react if he finds out that his father wanted me to spy on him— his own wife. It w

Chapter Forty-ThreeMatteo's POV My father kept on tapping one of his fingers on the table, both of us having a staring contest. No one wanted to break eye contact first.

When I first found out that I was in love with her, it bothered me that someday she would have to leave the De Luca mansion. I knew that one day she would stop bearing the Moreno name, and use that of her husband. That was why I kept my feelings hidden deep in

Chapter Forty-FiveMatteo's POV I can't believe that it was finally happening. Sometimes it felt like a dream. Maybe I was not ready to get married yet, or was it the fact that I wasn't Marrying the woman that I loved.I didn't know what the problem was, but the only thing I knew was that I wasn't really feeling the whole ceremony. Everything was great. Mia did a good job in choosing the venue. She was very beautiful in her wedding dress. The weather was perfect, the guests were all smiles. Everything was going perfectly, but for some reason, my mind wasn't in it. It was far away. I kept glancing at my parents, specifically at my mom— or should I say the vacant seat beside her that should have been Isla's even though I had no idea if she would have attended the ceremony if she was alive. Would she be at home sulking that I was getting married to someone else or would she put on her fixed smile and tried to wish me a happy married life? I wondered.Marriage was meant to be someone's
