Their car entered an elite neighborhood on the outskirts of Sydney. Luxury homes with spacious yards lined the streets. Caterina felt like she was returning to a world different from the rough and dangerous Mexico.“We're here,” Adam said as the car entered the large gate of a luxurious mansion.Caterina felt her heart pounding with anticipation. Although this was not the first time she had come to Luka's house, she still felt nervous. Especially because her relationship with Luka was now getting more serious, and Shopia was getting closer to her.The car stopped in front of the mansion's main door. Caterina stared at the magnificent building in front of her with mixed feelings. The house was modern and classical in style, with tall pillars and large windows that reflected the sunlight.“Welcome back,” said Luka, squeezing her hand gently.A servant hurried to open the car door. Adam got out first, followed by Luka, who then held out his hand to help Caterina. Alex got out last, his e

A little while later, the afternoon breeze was gently blowing in the back garden, carrying the scent of blooming roses. The sun was slowly leaning towards the west, creating long shadows on the manicured green grass. Shopia was sitting under a big tree, playing with her favorite bunny doll. The sound of birds perched on branches sounded melodious, blending with the sound of water gurgling from a small shower near the garden fence.Heavy footsteps approached, disturbing the tranquility of the afternoon. Adam sat on a nearby wooden bench and looked at his granddaughter with a gaze that was difficult to interpret. “Shopia, what are you doing?”The little girl raised her face and smiled sweetly while raising her rabbit doll. “I'm playing with Bunny, Grandpa. Bunny is having a picnic in the garden.”Adam smiled slightly. "A picnic, huh? Does Bunny like tea or milk?”Shopia seemed to think for a moment, then answered firmly, "Milk! Bunny likes chocolate milk.”Adam nodded while adjusting hi

In the kitchen, the fragrant aroma of chicken soup wafted in the air, mixed with the scent of garlic and freshly sautéed spices. Warm steam rose from a large pot simmering on the stove, creating a light mist that spread throughout the room.Caterina stood by the stove, stirring the broth with a wooden spatula. Occasionally, she blew on the hot steam that rose to her face, making the strands of hair around her forehead move slightly. Next to her, Alex leaned against the shiny marble table, holding a glass of cold water with condensation on its surface, smiling casually, watching Caterina's deft hands as she cooked.“You're really good at cooking,” said Alex with an admiring tone that was not fake, his eyes observing the way Caterina deftly added spices—such as salt and pepper.Caterina chuckled. "It's just a simple soup; I got the recipe from the internet,’ she said modestly, taking a small spoon to taste the broth. “You can try it later when it's perfectly cooked. It still needs a lit

In his office, Luka was leading an important meeting with several investors when his cell phone vibrated continuously. Seeing his father's name on the screen, he frowned. Adam rarely contacted him during working hours unless it was important.“Sorry, I have to pick up this phone,” he told the meeting participants before stepping out.“Dad, what's going on? I'm in a meeting.”“Come home now! Your fiancée is having an affair with Alex in our house!” Adam's voice sounded full of anger.Luka was silent for a moment, digesting his father's words. ”What? Dad, that's impossible—”“I saw it myself! They were both in the kitchen, laughing like nothing had happened. Come home now!”Luka sighed deeply. Since taking over the family business after their move, the pressure has been quite heavy. Now, this problem.“All right, I'll go home. But please don't make any more fuss.”Luka returned to the meeting room with a gloomy face. “I'm Sorry, but there are sudden family matters. We'll continue tomorr

That afternoon, the sun began to hide its rays behind the gray clouds that were parading. Sophia, Luka's five-year-old daughter, ran happily to the playground located in the backyard of their family's luxurious mansion. Her brown hair, braided in two, waved along with her agile footsteps.“Swing! Swing!” she exclaimed in a high-pitched voice full of excitement. Without waiting for anyone, she immediately jumped onto the white-painted iron swing and began to swing her own body.Caterina, who was watering the plants in her small garden not far away, occasionally looked back to make sure Sophia was okay. ”Be careful, Sweetheart. Don't go too high,“ she said gently, even though she knew Sophia was the type of child who always wanted to try challenging things.“I want to be as high as the sky, Mommy Kate!” Sophia replied with a cheerful laugh, kicking her legs in the air to gain more momentum.Caterina smiled at the happiness of the little girl she considered her child. She returned her fo

It was getting dark when Luka finally finished an important phone call with a client from Hong Kong. He stretched his stiff body after hours of sitting in front of the laptop. His thoughts went back to the incident earlier that afternoon when his father brought in Sophia, who was crying and accusing Caterina of hurting their little daughter.Luka sighed. He knew the truth behind the incident, but still he felt the need to talk to Caterina. Maybe to emphasize that he believed her, or maybe to make sure that the woman he loved was okay after being accused by Adam.“Sophia, My Princess, where's Mommy Kate?” she asked when she found her daughter drawing in the family room. The little girl's knees were plastered with pictures of unicorns, and she seemed to have forgotten about what had happened that afternoon.“Mommy's in the back garden,” Sophia replied without looking up from her coloring book. ”Mommy Kate said she wanted to look at the flowers.”Luka gently stroked his daughter's head b

Luka massaged his temples while staring at the glowing laptop screen. Today was one of those rare occasions when he could enjoy the tranquility of his home without phone calls or business meetings. But his thoughts were still preoccupied with one thing—his father, Adam.Since Caterina moved to Sydney, his relationship with his father had begun to change. Adam appeared more and more often in their mansion, especially when Luka was not there. Although he always claimed to want to make sure everything was okay, Luka knew more than that. From the sharp gaze and cold attitude, it was clear that Adam didn't like Caterina.Luka finally picked up his cell phone, tapping the table a few times before daring to press Adam's number.“What's wrong?“ Adam's heavy voice immediately greeted.“Dad, I need to talk for a minute,” Luka began carefully. “About your presence in my house when I was away.”A long pause. Luka could feel the tension creeping in.“So?“ Adam asked in a flat tone.“I think... ple

"Tell me how much you want." Adam said sharply," He gave Caterina a hostile look.Caterina stared with a furrowed brow. She was confused and did not understand what Adam's words meant. The middle-aged man suddenly appeared and asked a question."How much money do you want? Leave Luka alone; I'll give you whatever money you ask for. I won't bargain. I just want to give my best to Luka. He's the only son I have. I don't want his future to be ruined because of you." Adam explained in detail. He didn't use figurative words to offend Caterina. He preferred to be straightforward.Caterina laughed slightly. She smiled sadly. Although her lips carved a sweet smile, her heart ached like it was being sliced. Until now, Adam still couldn't accept it. She thought he would change his mind if she behaved properly towards him. However, hope was far from reality. Adam openly waved the flag of hostility."I don't need your money. You keep it for yourself." Caterina said very firmly."Luka isn't here,

This morning the air felt colder than usual. Caterina put a thick jacket on Shopia's body. While in the distance, Luka came with several cups of hot coffee."For you." Luka handed the coffee cups to Leonardo and Alex.Leonardo accepted the coffee with a smile, while the corner of his eye looked at Caterina, who was busy with Shopia. He was happy to see Caterina happy. However, his heart sank when he realized that Caterina's happiness was not him. He had to let the woman he loved live with another man.Sophia turned to look at Leonardo. He smiled broadly and waved goodbye. The only reason Caterina and Luka met Leonardo this morning was because Shopia was related to him. Sophia should at least recognize her uncle.Leonardo waved back at the little girl. Just like Alex said, Leonardo has changed a lot from before.Caterina led Shopia towards the group of men."Honey, give the gift to Uncle Leo." Caterina said softly.Sophia nodded.Leonardo stared at Caterina without blinking. After six

"Kate, I want to talk seriously." Alex said with a serious look on his face. He rarely acted like this. If he said something serious, it meant it was serious."Honey, you go to your room first." Caterina said very softly.Shopia, who was lying on Caterina's thigh, got up and went to her room. That child was really very obedient."What do you want to talk about?" Caterina looked up, looking at the man with a questioning look."Leo will be out of prison tomorrow morning." The man gave information. It wasn't that he wanted to scare Caterina, but he had something else to say."You can rest assured, Kate will be safe as long as I'm with her. There's nothing to be afraid of; he already has a criminal history. If he does the same thing a second time, the punishment will be more severe than before." Luka said firmly. It was as if he was emphasizing that no one could hurt Caterina as long as he existed. Even if that person was Leonardo.This was the sixth month of their marriage, just as Leona

Caterina stood in front of the mirror. She looked at her reflection there. The beautiful face looked even more beautiful after being polished with makeup. She took a deep breath, then let it out slowly. She tried to convince herself that this was the right move. She did not want to regret her decision to marry Luka. Here she had found so much love. This was the place where she could get what she wanted.There was a knock on the door from outside.Caterina invited him to enter. Dante stepped inside with tears in his eyes. He was touched when he saw his daughter in a wedding dress. He could finally see Caterina get married.As they had hoped, the world Luka offered was far from the hustle and bustle of crime. There were no enemies, no gunshots, no danger lurking every time they left the house.It was the kind of peaceful life that Dante and Caterina had always wanted. They had intended to escape to Sydney and start a new life in the city. However, they never imagined that they would mee

Leonardo looked at Dante very seriously. His eyes showed as if he was asking what was wrong. He wanted to know what Caterina thought of him."She doesn't hate you like you think. Kate is very forgiving." Dante said with affirmation.Leonardo was silent. In fact, even though Caterina had forgiven him, he still had no chance to get back Caterina's heart. His love story had ended there."Her wedding to Luka is in a fortnight. Come if you can." Dante informed.It seemed that the man's affection for Leonardo ran deep. Of course he did. He had taken care of the man since he was a baby until he grew up like this. The time he spent with Leonardo was far more than the time he had spent with his own daughter. Naturally, he felt that his bond with Leonardo could not be broken. Moreover, Leonardo has realized and regretted everything he has ever done."I'm not sure I can attend her wedding. I can't bear to see her married to another man." Leonardo said with a trembling voice. His eyes looked tear

The party finished just before 1am. Caterina felt very tired and sleepy. She was used to staying up late and sleeping early in the morning; it was just that she was not used to the crowded atmosphere and formal events like this. Interacting with so many people made her feel very tired. Her energy was drained very much. At this rate, she would need a few days of rest to fully recharge his energy."I'm sorry you had to keep me company until midnight." Luka felt guilty. He felt bad. He remembered when Leonardo had brought Caterina to an important event and asked her to go home first because Caterina felt uncomfortable. However, he could not do what Leonardo did, because Caterina was one of the important people in this event. It would not be good for her to leave the party in the middle of it.Caterina smiled broadly. It seemed that she had to get used to it. Because, in the future, she will attend more often in this way."It is I who apologizes for not being able to accompany you to the

"You go in first; I want to see my father first." Luka said as they arrived at an upscale hotel tonight. As Adam had said last week, tonight he would be holding an official party to announce the company's new leader, as well as to tell the public that Caterina was Luka's future wife.There will be a lot of media coming to broadcast the news. Caterina's name will become famous after this. She will be the daughter-in-law of the richest man in Sydney. Her profile and background will be explored by many people. If they knew that Caterina came from the dark world of the mafia, they would probably look down on her. She would be labeled as a bad person.Caterina nodded gently, she released her embrace on Luka's arm, and let him leave.Caterina didn't really like parties and crowds like this, so she felt very uncomfortable. She stepped very clumsily into the building where the party would be held.However, Caterina's steps were halted as the doorman stopped her. They asked her to show her inv

"Daddy is home." Caterina told Shopia that Luka had arrived at the villa. They started to get ready for the surprise. Caterina brought a big cake, while Shopia brought a small cake because she was not strong enough to carry a big cake.Today was Luka's 34th birthday. Caterina and the others had prepared a small party at home. They were celebrating with family only. No invitations, no friends. There were Alex and Dante, who joined in the festivities. Adam had only been notified a few minutes ago.They stood at the door. Waiting with their hearts racing. This was the first time Caterina had celebrated a birthday for Luka. She didn't know how he would respond. She didn't want to expect more, because she had been disappointed so many times. When she celebrated Leonardo's birthday, he didn't want to look at her at all. Let alone accepting her gift, he even threw the cake that Caterina offered.Having been hurt too many times, Catarina no longer had high hopes. Even though she knew the woun

"Why are you here?" Adam looked at his son with a probing look."Where else am I supposed to be? I need to go to the office to check my work after my two-week. There are a lot of files that I need to go through and sign off on. There's already a lot of cooperation pending. It's time for me to get back to work." Luka answered honestly."The work can be taken care of by others. There are many people who can be entrusted to take care of everything. You shouldn't have left Kate. She's still recovering." Adam seemed very concerned. Even now he was starting to be overprotective of his future daughter-in-law.Luka smiled a little. He hadn't expected that to be the reason his father had asked him about why he was at the office this morning. He thought it was something else; it was because he left Caterina for work."She's fine. She asked me to come back to work. I have Alex and Dante looking after her at home." Luka explained."That's good that you are. You check all these files and give them

Hearing Caterina's words, Dante felt very happy. He had never thought that his daughter would give him a chance. The man smiled broadly. He approached Caterina, then hugged her very tightly."I know I've made many mistakes. This time I promise I will make up for all my past mistakes. I will be a good father to you." Dante said with great tenderness.Caterina nodded; she returned her father's hug gently.Luka looked happy to see that Caterina and her father's relationship had improved. His dream of improving their relationship had finally come true. At least that was all he wanted for now."No one needs me to take you to the airport, right?" Alex asked reassuringly after he saw Caterina and Dante hugging each other. The two had made up."I guess," Dante replied as he released her hug."Daddy!" Shopia ran to her father. She clung to her father's thighs. In her arms was the doll she got from Adam. She still thought it was from Caterina."Who is she?" Dante asked as he looked at his daugh
