Don't Settle For Less

Eu estava grávida de oito meses e participava de um baile de caridade com meu marido, o Don Massimo, quando uma família rival nos atacou. A multidão entrou em pânico. Fui empurrada ao chão com violência. Havia sangue por toda parte. Massimo perdeu o controle, gritando por médicos, desesperado para salvar meu bebê. Mas, quando acordei, eles tinham desaparecido. Ambos. Sem bebê, sem Massimo. Lembrei-me dos tiros, de Massimo me protegendo com o próprio corpo. Um pavor gelado tomou conta de mim. Arrastei-me até uma cadeira de rodas e corri pelo corredor. Foi quando os ouvi — Massimo e o médico. — Don, sinto muito. Fizemos tudo o que pudemos. O bebê… ele não sobreviveu. Lágrimas escorriam pelo meu rosto. Eles mataram meu bebê. A família rival matou meu bebê. Mas as palavras seguintes dele destruíram meu mundo. — Havia apenas uma equipe médica. Eu tive que fazer uma escolha. Bianca… ela também estava carregando meu filho. Massimo suspirou e então deu a ordem: — Ninguém conte a Arabella. Ela vai criar o filho de Bianca como se fosse dela. Ele será meu único herdeiro. Tapei a boca com a mão, minha visão embaçada pelas lágrimas enquanto me virava. O homem que eu amava era uma mentira. Tudo bem. Se ele quer uma guerra, ele vai ter uma.

My love story with my Don husband was once the model relationship for couples all across Edale. But after his sudden death, the notary informed me that I was not the first in line to inherit his estate. I froze. Christian Fuzio was an only child. His parents had long passed away. We had no children. If I wasn't the first in line, then who was? That was when the boy walked in. His face was a perfect copy of Zoe Sgotti, Christian's assistant. The boy crossed his arms and sneered. "Mrs. Fuzio, the person my father loved most in his life was my mother. Of course, most of the inheritance belongs to us." Rae… Ray… Only then did I realize that the name he had whispered on his deathbed was never mine. I lunged forward to question Ray, but he shoved me into the traffic. The moment my head slammed against the ground, darkness swallowed everything. When I opened my eyes once more… I stared at my young, strong hands. Feeling the life that I had once lost growing inside me, I finally understood that I had been given another chance. Christian, this time, I no longer wanted your fake love. I would grant the three of you all the happiness that you wanted.

My fiance called me to post bail after he was arrested. When I arrived, however, I was informed that he was caught in a compromising position. "I came to protect Lily because I was worried for her safety," my fiance retorted, putting an arm around her shoulder. "But her boyfriend didn't believe me. Or is it the same for you too? Go post bail already." Nonetheless, I spied the lacy underwear poking out ever so slightly over his belt. In the past, I would have made a scene as I demanded an explanation. But now, I was as cool as a cucumber. When the cops asked what our relationship was, I paused in thought for a moment, before saying quietly, "His employer." Once I signed the papers, I texted my brother: [I'll go on that blind date. Schedule it for three days later.]

Oh, God Not again, but again. All that flashed through my head in the space when Gavril let me back down, and bang! Bang! He cursed, pulling up my panties, then fastening his own pants. He had a gun out, and where did he get that gun? But he had it pointed down, and he took my hand, pulling me to the back of the shed. _____ Naomi finds herself trapped in a nightmare she never asked for.

During the holiday break, my wife, Jayda Glover—the hospital's star surgeon and Chief of Cardiac Surgery—suddenly "had to work overtime." Our third-anniversary hot springs trip? Canceled. That night, I was scrolling social media when a post from her intern, Dillon Tripp, popped up. My ice-queen wife always said her "golden hands" were only for patients. Apparently, they cook now too. She was in a cartoon apron, calmly chopping vegetables. The caption read: [Thank you, Dr. Glover, for personally cooking to comfort me after I was bullied by a patient's family!] I tapped like and left a comment. [White coat to apron. Very domestic.] Ten minutes later, the whole hospital knew Cardiac Surgery's untouchable beauty had broken her rule—just to cook for a younger guy. Jayda called. Dishes clattered in the background. "You really had to embarrass me in public? He got hot water thrown on him by a patient's family today. I was just doing my duty as his mentor! "A pampered professor's kid like you wouldn't know the first thing about how hard broke med students have it. "Apologize to Dillon right now. Otherwise, no matter how much you beg later, I'm not going on that trip with you!" Beg her? I looked at the divorce papers that had just arrived on the coffee table and let out a quiet laugh. I wasn't begging anymore. From this moment on, we were strangers.
