That year, during the Sicilian arms trafficking conflict, my lover of three years, Silvio, deliberately betrayed my transport routes at a critical moment in a deal with the rival "DiMarco" family, causing me to lose all my territory. He immediately defected to the DiMarco family's leader Marina, becoming her lover. As he left, he didn't even bother to disguise his betrayal, coldly tossing out, "What we had was just business, nothing personal." While I was burdened with my family's blood debts and pushed to the edge of a cliff, Lorenzo, who had secretly harbored feelings for me since childhood, found me and offered his family's entire fortune. "Isabella, don't be afraid. In my eyes, you'll always be Sicily's most formidable Queen of the Arms Trade," he said. He took the Colt pistol from my hand, and his voice was gentle yet resolute. Five years later, my power resurged. I was about to completely crush Marina's smuggling network and reclaim everything I had lost. My caporegimes, the captains of my organization, were ready and waiting for my command. But on the night before the operation, my weapons warehouse suddenly exploded, turning priceless arms into worthless scrap metal. I barely escaped through the thick smoke, my body covered in burns. In a secluded monastery, I overheard Lorenzo and Silvio whispering outside my door. "You really had the guts to blow up the arsenal. Weren't you afraid of blasting her to pieces too?" Silvio's voice carried a mocking tone. "If she died, just died. I've always loved Marina. If it weren't for that unlucky family marriage lottery five years ago, I wouldn't have had to endure this ugly bitch for all this time." Lorenzo's voice was ice-cold and unfamiliar. I closed my eyes, feeling like a dagger had pierced my chest. Explosion. Arranged marriage. Ugly bitch. So those five years of shared hardship were just his unwilling choice after losing a high-stakes gamble. "I married her to keep watch. If it weren't for me paving

Bertrand Callum was a well-known lawyer in our circle and my fiancé. We had agreed to go on our honeymoon right after registering our marriage. But he broke that promise again and again. He took his secretary to every place I had dreamed of visiting. On my birthday, he brought her to Saltorlini, the place we had planned to go together. Later, he gave up our marriage registration just because she had sprained her ankle. Even when I was in a car accident and on the verge of death, he hung up on my call for help because of something she said. After I recovered, I went alone to Acreatic, a place I had always longed to see, and moved out of the home we once shared. A week after I left, Bertrand called to scold me. "Annie, you need to stop overreacting. Are you really going to divorce me over something so trivial?" I wanted to remind him that we had never actually registered our marriage. But ultimately, I shut up and said nothing. After all, there was nothing between us anymore.

[MATURE] "BRENGSEK! SIAPA YANG BERANI MELEMPAR BENDA MENJIJIKAN INI KE KEPALAKU?" "AKU BENAR-BENAR AKAN MEMBUATNYA BABAK BELUR!" Mataku terbuka lebar mendengar umpatan kasar barusan. Aku buru-buru memunguti bukuku dan berusaha berdiri dengan bertumpu pada kedua lututku. Rasa dingin menyengat telapak kaki kananku begitu aku berhasil berdiri tegak. Aku melirik ke bawah dan menemukan kaki kananku hanya terbalut kaus kaki tanpa sepatu boots. "Aku harus membuat perhitungan dengan pemilik sepatu boots sialan ini! Berani-beraninya melempar sepatu boots ke kepalaku!" Dia Jason Butler, playboy sekaligus brandalan yang paling digilai para murid wanita di Heigberk High School. Astaga, aku dalam bencana!

Atau mungkin pemeran utama wanita kita, Steffy yang malang dapat merubah kisah yang tragis ini menjadi romansa manis. Mari lihat bagaimana akhirnya.
