Days passed and Grandpa was at home waiting for the DNA results, which I finally had in my hands.I opened the envelope and tears streamed down my face, indeed Pilar was my sister.Grandpa Dante and Alex were celebrating with me the joy of having our little Paula Lombardi again.The only thing left to do was to fix the problems with the Rodriguez's and of course, to get Claudia back. I didn't want to let her go for anything in the world.***Pov. Eva"Clau, you can't continue in this state, you must talk to Alessandro, I know you love each other," I said to my stubborn best friend."He kept important information from me about my family and besides, he ruined our wedding day," she said with a grimace."Honey, it wasn't his fault, please talk to him," I insisted."Eva, you have to be on my side, you're my best friend," Alessandro started to get annoyed. "If you're so interested in Alessandro, then you'd better go with him.""Don't be stubborn," I rolled my eyes, "I just want to see you h

Pov. AlexisEva looked quite pleased to meet me, her smile was beautiful and her eyes had a peculiar twinkle in them, probably because the plans were working out as expected."I hope Claudia doesn't get too mad at me," she said as she approached, grimacing."Relax, it was necessary to get those, your friend will thank you," I said with a smile, to reassure her."Thank you for supporting me, Alexis.""You're welcome. I was never a good cousin to Alessandro, I think it's time for a change.""Change is always good," her smile widened. "I'll say goodbye, you know you can count on my friendship.""Thank you, Eva, likewise you now have a new friend," I said, not very convinced.I didn't understand why I felt this way about her, it was strange that just thinking that we would just be friends, I felt this way."She's your cousin's wife's best friend, you shouldn't get involved," attacked my conscience.I arrived at my apartment and was surprised, because Anna was waiting for me. I couldn't be

Alessandro's POVI couldn't even think of anything else but killing him.When I left the room in search of Claudia, I knew that things weren't quite right between us, and that's because ever since I had seen her kissing Matteo in those damn pictures, I had a terrible jealousy that I could barely control.I had never been good at love relationships and after Anna's cheating, I thought I would never be ready for love... until I found Claudia.And now she was hugging this guy I didn't even know.I was desperate, I had anxiety like shit and the urge to finish the son of a bitch only increases every second. My blood was boiling, I was more pissed off than ever, I felt like murdering whoever came near me, but nothing compared to the desire I had to kill the guy for approaching my wife.The fucking picture with the other asshole who held her back kept going over my fucking head, because that made my anger rise to a thousand percent. I was too jealous.I'd had a stupid upset stomach for a coup

Claudia's POVI couldn't believe how in a single day everything could go to shit. What had happened in the last few hours was the perfect example of that.The horrible scenes had stuck in my mind, and I couldn't stop thinking about it. The sight of him out of his mind, Charles lying on the ground, me trying to intervene to try and separate them, Alexis getting hurt because of him. Charles being taken away in an ambulance, and finally, Alessandro being arrested by the police.Sitting in the hospital waiting room, which was completely empty after Charles had been admitted as an emergency and then seeing the marks on his neck, the guilt gnaws at me.To think that if I hadn't gotten involved with a man I barely knew in the first place, it wouldn't have come to this, because at the end of the day I was the reason for this fight.I couldn't even look him in the face after what he did, the short seconds in which I connected my gaze with his, felt the worst. Knowing that the man you love was a

The car ride home took forever, I just wanted to get there and lock myself in my room so no one could see me cry. He really left me, and he didn't even care how I might be feeling.Lying in my bed, with my head on my pillow and incessant tears streaming down my cheeks, all I wish is that this day is just a damn nightmare and that tomorrow when I wake up, I can realize that none of this happened. I can't breathe normally either, the lump in my throat still remains, and all I wish is that my chest would stop hurting, that the crying would stop, but sadly it's something I can't contain.The coldness of his words never ceases to torture me, and the hatred with which his eyes looked at me has remained as a frozen image in my brain.I wanted to talk to him, I wanted to explain to him what happened, which he did not allow me to do, because his stupid jealousy blinded him completely. It's unbelievable to me, that he could even consider thinking that I preferred Charles to him. Fuck, I didn'

Three days had passed since the horrible nightmare, and without a doubt I still didn't feel better.Eva had been with me most of the time and today she had tried to encourage me to go for a run with her, so I could clear my head. But it had been a failure, because I hadn't even wanted to get out of bed; I just took a shower and went back to bed again.Trying to stop thinking about him was a lost cause and even more with the fact that today we were going to meet at a dinner to set another wedding date, to which I was supposed to go with my whole family, but it was obvious that circumstances had changed, the last thing I wanted was to be there, with Alessandro's hateful look."Claudia, come downstairs to eat," I heard my mother call from downstairs.We hadn't crossed words since the day we returned from the station, and it made me a little uncomfortable interacting with her after everything that had happened. But I was also starving, and I couldn't go without food, so I had no choice b

Alessandro's POVThe moment she opened the door and I saw her in front of me, the first thing that provoked me was to laugh.Her nose was redder than a tomato, and her eyelids were so swollen it looked like she'd been stung by hundreds of wasps. It was obvious that she had been crying a lot, and that she had been doing it just now; I could tell by the wetness of her eyelashes and the irritation in her eyes.We both stared at each other for several seconds, not taking our eyes off each other, and in the course of that time, I could tell how her expression quickly went from stupefaction to annoyance, a sign that this was not going to be easy."Will you let me through or would you rather I get roots out here?," I was the first one to speak, because she just stood there static, her look of annoyance on her face."What the hell are you doing here?" she suddenly shouted, but in such a loud way, that it almost made my eardrums burst.Hell, she was pissed."Let me through," I asked, trying to

I brought a hand to my hair to try to tidy it up, but in the movement I couldn't help but let out a grimace of pain from the discomfort I had in it, and Claudia didn't miss my expression."Show me your hand," she demanded earnestly, so I held it out to her.She took it with utmost care, and as I felt the contact of her hand holding mine, it was undeniable the current we both felt, and I confirmed it because our gazes crossed at the moment."Your knuckles are very swollen, you should go to the doctor.""I don't need to.""Sure you do," she contradicted me."Don't.""You're a fool," she retorted, rolling her eyes. "Follow me."She turned, to make her way toward the staircase that connected to the second floor of the house. I walked behind her several paces away, lost with the delightful view she is giving me.It was impossible for me not to see her ass with the shorts she was wearing and added to the movement of her hips.... What is it about her, that every time she got angry she had to

I could only watch as my best friend moved back and forth. She looked distressed, but I was starting to feel dizzy."Eva, stop it! Why are you so nervous?""My trip is approaching, I have my suitcases almost ready, but...""What's wrong, dear friend? You can still change your mind about the trip if you're not sure.""It's just that now I realize how much I'm going to miss my parents. I've never been separated from them," she says with teary eyes."You told me yourself it's just a five-month trip. Seize this opportunity and enjoy it," I encourage her, seeing her sad."You're right. With some contacts from my father, I managed to secure a teaching job. It's a language center in Canada.""Will you be an Italian teacher?" "Exactly, my friend. I'm really excited. There are people from different nationalities at that center. I think I'll learn a lot about other cultures," she says this time with a smile."I'm happy for you, Eva," I give her a hug. "Alright, I'll leave you to finish packing

"Darling, how lovely to see you both," my father greets Alessandro and me."We have excellent news for you," I announce as my mother joins us. "You will be grandparents to a beautiful baby boy."Shouts of surprise and excitement ensue."Congratulations, my dear, Alessandro," my father hugs us. "Have you thought of any names?""We like the name Luca," Alessandro says, and my mom starts crying."Mom?""I'm thrilled to have a little one coming into the family," she says through tears. "Our grandson Luca will be a much-loved boy."Alessandro and I are not officially married yet, which is why we've been planning a new wedding all this time.Eva will soon leave for Canada, and I want her to attend my wedding. She's my maid of honor and must be there, so I sped up my plans."Eva, is everything ready?" I ask my friend as we meet for lunch."Yes, Claudia, I promise to call you as much as I can, don't worry. Plus, I'll only be gone for 5 months," she says with a smile. "I'll be back just in tim

I spent the entire Sunday morning in my bed, unable to sleep at night."I better pay Claudia a visit,I need her advice," I say with a wry smile due to my huge dark circles.I took a shower and put on something comfortable, dark blue jeans, a white t-shirt, and white sneakers.I arrived at Claudia's house; she looks so beautiful with her baby bump, and it makes me so happy to see her. She's like the sister I've always wanted.I didn't waste any time and told her everything that happened last night. She listened attentively as we sipped on juice and ate cookies."I have to admit that Alexis is a jerk, but on the other hand, Piero is a true gentleman. I think you should give him a chance," she says with a smile."Claudia, it's not easy to just dismiss these kinds of feelings.""I know, when you fall in love, you can't see anyone else, but I think you really enjoy suffering. You could have a caring man by your side, yet you still prefer holding onto Alexis," she says with a wry expressio

Eva's POVAfter Alessandro and Claudia left, I stayed working alone in the office. Alexis had to attend a very important meeting.I could only think about the kiss between him and me; I couldn't concentrate on my tasks."Hello, beautiful.""Piero, what are you doing here?" I exclaimed, slightly flustered upon seeing him in front of me."I had to take care of some advertising matters here at the company and took the opportunity to come and say hi," he says with a huge smile, a very handsome one indeed."I'm glad to see you. Tell me, are you excited about the release of your new movie?""Of course, it was quite a challenge for me. I was used to making action movies, and now starring in a romantic genre was special," he responds enthusiastically."I'm excited to see the outcome. I'm sure it will do very well in sales.""Thank you, Eva," he says, taking my hand. "Would you like to be my date for that day?""Well, what a surprise. I would certainly love to, but that day I have to be by my

We arrived at the restaurant where Piero made the reservation, it's spectacular, and I feel both ecstatic and out of place for being in such a beautiful and elegant place that my paternal family is so accustomed to.Is this how my life would be if I accept marrying Piero Ferrara?"I had never been to this place before, it's very nice," I say somewhat uncomfortably, trying to push those thoughts out of my mind."I knew you would like it, it's my favorite French restaurant, 'Le Gigot,' their steaks are really good," Piero says gallantly.We sit at a pre-booked table, and Piero even pulls out the chair for me in a chivalrous manner."While we wait for our order, tell me, why did you decide to become an actor? My grandfather mentioned that your family owns the textile company FR," I ask."That's correct, they do, but I've always been drawn to acting. And when I retire from this career in the future, I'll assume the presidency of the company," he confesses, and I'm amazed. "Believe me, I'm

When I leave the office, the phone suddenly rings, pulling me out of my thoughts.I see the contact on the screen and hurry to answer my phone. It's my mom and I think it's important because she never calls me at work."Hello, Mom, what's up?""Sweetie, I hope I'm not interrupting your work. Tell me, why didn't you mention that you saw your grandfather?"Her question surprises me. What's all this about?"I only saw him briefly. We coincidentally crossed paths here at work. Don't worry, I didn't do anything wrong.""I know you're a good girl. It's just that your grandfather talked to your father and he wants to see you tomorrow at his house.""Tomorrow? That's impossible. I have an appointment, and I'm not going to cancel it for my grandfather. I'm sorry, Mom.""Dear, I think it's necessary for all of us to visit your grandfather. He wants to see us. He seemed really worried.""No, Mom, I'm sorry.""In the morning, we can visit your grandfather, and you'll have the afternoon free. Don'

"In love! With whom? Why didn't you tell me?" she exclaims in genuine surprise.Of course, it's obvious she'd react that way, considering she had named me the number one single for a while now, but Alexis Lombardi was an incredible person who had deeply ingrained himself in me.Even over the years, I couldn't forget him completely."I don't know when I started liking him so much…""Wait, don't say another word, are you falling for Alexis Lombardi?" She looks at me with wide-open eyes."It seems like it," I say with a lump in my throat."But I don't understand why you're sad. It would be wonderful if you and Alexis became a couple. Imagine the four of us on a double date. You're my best friend, and Alexis is Alessandro's cousin…""Dear friend, I think you're hallucinating. Look at me, I'm really not his type," I say with a wry smile, remembering how everything "ended" between us."Eva, what's gotten into you? You're beautiful, with your long black hair and those gorgeous blue eyes. Jus

Days go by, and Alessandro informs me that he has news for me about Anna, which makes me nervous because I had managed to find solid evidence of her kidnapping and how she had drugged him to take advantage of him.It seems that Matteo himself had given them to him."Love, the good news is that Anna will go to jail for a long time, and her parents are accomplices. I will have full custody of my daughter."I couldn't be happier, I throw myself into his arms, but I notice he's tense, so I look at him inquisitively."There's another piece of news, isn't there?""That's right, and it's that Anna escaped. They could only imprison her parents.""And Vittoria?""She was with them. Bruno is bringing her along with John. She'll be able to live with us.""These are wonderful news, but Anna...""I'll do everything in my power to put that crazy woman behind bars. I won't let her keep hurting us."Ale comes closer to me and kisses my lips. I want to respond, but there's been something on my mind fo

My brow furrows as I watch her place one of her hands on his shoulder and then lean in to whisper something in his ear, causing their inevitable closeness. With just that tiny gesture, my body burns with anger at the scene I'm witnessing. And even though Alessandro gently pushes her away, the woman clings to him like a damn tick.I don't even realize when I started walking towards them, but there I am, standing in front of him, staring at him intently."Claudia," he says my name as if nothing's wrong, making the woman turn to look at me."Who are you?," I ask the blue-eyed woman who won't leave my man alone."I could ask you the same thing," she retorts with an arrogant look."Olivia, she's…""Claudia," I interrupt him. "Nice to meet you, Olivia."I look at her without any hint of cordiality or joy."Oh," she huffs, looking me up and down. "So, you're the lucky one. I'm Olivia Brooks.""Claudia, she's an actress, like Piero," the idiot who unfortunately will be the father of my child
