"Leave it, Katia. What they did to you during the kidnapping is one thing, and it's a completely different matter that this wretch touched you knowing you were married to me," he interrupted coldly. "Hilbert....

"What are you doing here!? I made it very clear that I didn't want you near my daughter," a voice shouted from behind Stefan.

It was Richard, accompanied by his wife. They had been drawn by the voices.

"Relax, sir. You won't see me near your daughter anymore," he said seriously. Elyse approached her young daughter, who was shaking her head vigorously. "You told me to think about what was more important, my "business" or your daughter."

"Don't tell me you've made up your mind in a day?" He asked sarcastically.

"I had made up my mind long before, sir," he replied seriously.

"And? What is most important to someone like you?" They locked eyes, challenging each other.

The rest of the people, except Hilbert, had no idea what they were talking about.

They looked at each other in surprise as the calls were from Katia and Alice, her mother.Madeleine took a deep breath before answering her friend and moved a bit away from Junior not to disturb him while talking to her mother."What's going on, Mom?" The man said with concern."Oh, darling... You have no idea what happened this afternoon at the estate... Your sister is inconsolable," the woman told him."But, what happened?" He wondered, noticing the gestures Madeleine was making while talking on the phone."Stefan came to the house shortly after you left with Madeleine, and there was a big commotion... Your sister and him broke up.""What do you mean they broke up? Mom, tell me what happened," her eldest son demanded."I don't know all the details, but... it seems that, for him, his business is more important than your sister, and that's when everything went wrong.""And w

    A few days later, the entire Verlag company eagerly awaited the arrival of their CEO. Stefan had returned with the name Zelig Richter. He was unaware of Katia's departure from the company, but he would find out that day.Accompanying him was a man with hair that was a mix of blonde and brown, with a slight tan to his skin. He had a light beard and his eyes had a very pale blue hue. He was tall, muscular, and well-built, with a broad back.Hilbert had decided to accompany his friend due to a matter he had in that city. That matter was Elyse West Dupont.Katia's sister had found a job as a French teacher at a school and had left the troubled life she had led a few years ago.Madeleine arrived at the company holding the hand of a five-year-old girl with blonde hair and beautiful green eyes.

    Monica and the girl walked to the right side of the floor, while the little one took small jumps.Zelig was taken aback by what the woman had told him. Did she hate him so much that she hadn't accepted to be his secretary?He squinted his eyes and, seconds later, walked to his office.Hilbert looked at him in silence, but the laughter of the girl caught his attention. He felt like he had seen that little girl somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where or when.He ended up heading to his friend's office and closed the door behind him. He knew that his friend still loved the mother of his daughter, but he was hurt by the rejection he received from her."I'll ask Elyse about it this afternoon. She probably knows something about Katia... But I think it's better to ask Katia as soon as I see her... What if I don't see her? I'll ask Elyse," Hilbert thought as he sat down in one of the chairs, waiting for his friend to recover.Throughout the day, Zelig kept looking out of his office w

Zelig jumped in surprise and crouched down to keep up with his daughter.He noticed that Katia had not moved from where Joanne separated from her and that she was not looking at him."I promise to come another day," Joanne said to her father."I'd love to," he said with a smile. "Now go on. Your mother is waiting for you.""Daddy, why didn't you say hello to mommy?," she asked innocently.Zelig noticed Katia watching them and saw her snort."Mommy is mad at me for something I did a long time ago, but as long as I get to see you again, I'll be happy. Do you know why?" The girl shook her head. "Because you look so much like your mother.""Grandma says Stefanie Elein looks more like Mommy..." she pouted tenderly."I don't think so. You... you have the same look as your mother and her same smile," she stroked his cheek, smiling. "Go on, go. Your mother will be more upset with me as long as you're still her

    Federica and Katia went up to the top floor where the cafeteria was located. They sat at a table near the large window, and the brunette waitress brought two soft drinks, one for each of them.Unable to help it, Katia felt uncomfortable, but she didn't want to tell the woman sitting across from her. The babbling of the triplets caught her attention.They were three beautiful children, just like their parents, and they were utterly adorable with their chubby cheeks. Judging by their age, the babies couldn't be more than a year and a half old.Not knowing what to say, Katia took a sip of her drink and sighed."My brother told me that Joanne looks a lot like you," Federica commented, making her companion look at her. "Listen, Katia. It's true that my brother is... a mafioso," she said in a hushed voice so no one could hear. "But there's something I'm sure of: he loves you and misses both of you.

Ever since she had broken up with Stefan, she did this every night when she felt down.She left the bottle on the coffee table in front of the couch.Katia took the glass of wine and took a small sip while she thought about what Zelig or Stefan had told her. Although to her, he would always be Stefan, as that's the name she had known him by.Did either of them really have the blame?She, barefoot with the glass in her hand, walked across the floor to the entrance and approached a small bookshelf in that area. She sat on the floor, leaving the glass by her side, and opened the door of the piece of furniture, starting to search inside.After a few minutes, she pulled out a frame. She sat on the floor, staring at the photo, and took a sip of wine."You have no idea how much I wish I could talk to you, Oscar... Why did you have to die?" Katia thought, without moving fr

    She had finished showering and the only thing around her body was a towel that reached a few inches below her butt. Took off the towel that surrounded her hair and dried it with that cloth while she looked at herself in the mirror.She stood still as she thought of Stefan. Since he had left she had been using the masturbator she had before she met him, and while she was showering, she had been touching herself thinking about him.Katia needed him to touch her the way he only knew how to touch her and feel his kisses around her body, her neck and kiss her lips.She shook her head not to think about him and not to tempt desire again.She took off her towel and then put on a black strapless set and a colutte also in black and combed her hair a little to get rid of the knots that had come out after wetting her hair.Then she came out of the bathroom and stared at the dress on the bed."Why did you have to choose pink, knowing that I don't like that color?," she said with her hands on her

The Judge, an elderly man with a warm smile, was adjusting his papers at the front, getting ready to commence the ceremony.It was the right moment to share the news."What to say?"

    Hilbert helped his friend by taking his arm to help him stand, and then everyone congratulated the couple.At that moment, Madeleine and Katia decided to get married on the same day and... in Lourmarin.For each of them, that place held a different meaning, but they both agreed it was a beautiful location for a double wedding.Joanne and Stefanie Elein were overjoyed. Their parents were getting married, and they would become one united family. Richard, the father, looked at his eldest son and his youngest daughter, and seeing them happy, he was happy too.For some reason, he looked at the lawyer and smiled half-heartedly."I should start having more conversations with that man, as he's the one my daughter Elyse has chosen," he thought.

    A group of men gathered behind the young brunette, but the leader of the group took Katia as a hostage, pointing a gun at her.

Katia began to silently cry, looking at the inspector for help.The police were in a dilemma. They couldn't shoot without harming Katia. Both the gang and the law enforcement group had their weapons aimed at each other, with the young brunette caught in the middle."Stefan... help me..." Katia silently wished, her eyes closed as tears streamed down her cheeks.She was so focused on seeking help from the man she loved that she didn't realize someone was speaking behind her.

When they opened the door they found Federica sitting next to him and Jürgen, who was leaning against the wall.

    The sound of the cell phone she had in her left hand since she sat down to eat made her snap out of her world, fixed on a single point.She didn't have the number saved, but upon seeing the number it began with, she knew it wasn't from there."Hello?" Katia answered and took a sip of champagne."Katia, it 's Federica. Happy New Year," she heard on the other end of the line, but it was clear that Federica was sad about something."Happy New Year to you too, Federica. Is... your brother around?""Katia... I don't know how to tell you this, but...""Federica... don't scare me. What's going on?" This made everyone look at her. "What's happening?""Do you remember that my brother and Jürgen were trying to stop the mafia war?""Of course, I remember. That's why he went back to Germany. Has something happened to him?" she asked with fear. Madeleine approached her sister-in-law and put her hands on her arms. "Please, Federica.
