Predestined Marriage Novel Summer And Leonardo 소설 & 이야기

Transfixed on Jude, Summer comes out of her head, saying, "Lucus, don't you dare beat yourself up. We're celebrating your engagement today, Ajay, but your dad has been to rehab. We ran into each other during a conference in Missouri when he was sober. That was divine intervention. I live here and have never run into him once. He was with some hussy who was dragging him back down. I wanted to resist him but couldn't. And now here we are, serving the Lord and preparing to become husband and wife." With his eyes fixed on Jude, my dad interjects, "Oh yeah, are you guys having a church wedding?" I look at Jude, who answers, "My family owns an island. It's stunning. I'm sensing Summer's a minister

Luciano insisted nervously after a few minutes of complete silence. "Well... my friend and I decided that... you will marry his daughter," Joseph responded calmly with a smile. Luciano's jaw dropped in shock. "This is a joke, right?" "No, it's not. In a month, you and her will be married. Everything is already agreed upon." "What are you saying?" Luciano exclaimed angrily– "you can't force me to get married." "Yes, I can. It's already decided." "You know very well that I'm not cut out for marriage," Luciano reminded him, still unable to believe what was happening– "how can you expect me to marry a woman I don't even know?"

He can't let his nephew drive in that condition. "Let's have breakfast." Clayton said as he kissed the corner of Emerald's lips. Emerald nodded. Meanwhile, Leonardo was able to catch up with Red. "Don't drive in that state," Leonardo said, blocking Red from entering his car. "Why didn't I know that Clayton got married?" Red asked as he was still confused how he didn't caught wind of his marriage. Leonardo sighed and thrust his hand in his trousers pocket. "I forced him to marry Emerald and he adamantly kept his marriage secret. And they got divorced after a year," said Leonardo.

He sat down then handed me a cup of Cafe Latte. "Thanks." I smiled at him. "I heard that our engagement party will be held this coming summer. Any plans on how we can stop it?" He started. I was surprised when he said that. "What? This coming summer? How did you know? I mean my parents haven't told me this yet. So what are we going to do?" I was confused. "Relax, relax okay. We still have three months to make a plan." "Three months? Do you think we can do that? It's a pest life oh. Why do I need to marry you? I know it will happen but I never expected this to be early."

The words hung in the air, and Vincent and Lena froze on the spot. It was a long moment before they found their voices, stammering in disbelief: “That’s impossible! Seraphina is my wife, how could she be with Uncle Leo? And everyone knows Uncle Leo wants nothing to do with women, that he was born sterile!” Thaddeus looked at Vincent, his eyes sharp with disappointment: “The day you ran out on your wedding for Lena, Seraphina married Leo right there. Every one of the Five Families, the entire underworld, knows this. How could you be the only one who didn’t?”

Rick declared, puffing his chest out. "Are you nuts? I'm his best man," CJ protested. "You're both crazy. I'm Lyron's best man!" Josh persisted. "Me!" - Rick. "Me!" - CJ. "It's me!" - Josh. "Quit fighting, you two are silly. Just marry each other and have it out," I interjected, which made them fall quiet. "See? I said so, Josh," Rick said, jabbing at Josh. "No, it's you," CJ shot back, jabbing at Rick.

"Mr. Vincent always saves the very best for you. You're fortunate, Ms. Rossi." I gave him a faint smile, walked into the dressing room, and opened the safe. I placed the pink diamond in an empty slot, then stuck a small label beneath it: 97/99. As always, this was Leon's way of "making up" for either his affection or his betrayal. Just as I shut the safe, my phone buzzed with a new email. The sender was Elena, Leon's fiancee. Attached was a photo of a sunset over the Halston River in the background. Leon was shirtless, his muscles sharply defined. His head was lowered as he kissed Elena, who was curled up in his arms.

“Steven died. He died and left behind Summer and those kids. She had depression. One of the babies is dead now. “If I’d known she would turn into this, I never should’ve married her in the first place…” At that, Leon and Lucas exchanged a look. Neither of them knew how to answer that one either. Because the truth was, back then, Stella had not even wanted him like that. He was the one who kept chasing her.

Placing my chin on his chest, I looked up at him. But I lifted my chin and looked up at him, meeting his gaze. "According to me," I said, "you recognized me at first sight. That's why you compared me with my old self, and you admitted that it was the first time that ever happened to you. You could have chosen anyone, but you forced me into this contract. You had countless girls vying for your attention, yet you chose me." He remained silent, absorbing my words. "That's because your heart knew it was me," I continued. "We aren't just married by contract; we're destined by fate, Enzo."

I didn’t know. And that terrified me. I looked back at the photograph in my hands, my younger self smiling at a world that was never as simple as it seemed. “How long?” I asked. “How long have you been watching me?” Leon didn’t hesitate. “Years.” The truth hit me like a storm. Leon Castello had known me long before I ever met Daniel. This marriage wasn’t just about power. It was about something much deeper. And suddenly, I wasn’t sure if I was playing the game—
