Alessandro had gone off with his assistant, who knows where, and that made me more than angry, although I shouldn't care.Why didn't he fire her after all the scandals? That woman was a leech, and he didn't put her in her place.I decided to leave the tour, claiming that Isabella could handle the organization on her own. Mr. Carter wasn't very happy about me abandoning my position, but I couldn't stay there with Alessandro around.I needed a break."I must stay strong and stay away from him," I muttered to myself, looking at the beautiful fountain and gardens filled with flower bushes.Now, I find myself at a company party where Charles couldn't attend due to work, and Mr. Carter was being insistent, wanting to dance with me. I had no choice but to accept, although I didn't like the way he held my waist.I remembered Isabella's words and shuddered, looking for an excuse to step out into the garden to get some fresh air, where I am now, lost in my thoughts."Claudia," I hear someone ca

As I entered the apartment, I immediately headed towards the bathroom, taking off everything I was wearing. I can still feel his scent lingering on my skin, and the last thing I want is to have his smell on my body.I scrub myself over and over, almost scraping my skin, as if this could erase the traces of what we did yesterday. But when I see the marks that remain and won't go away, it becomes impossible not to cry.I despise myself for what I did to Charles, for what I did to myself. Being strong all this time, only to end up like this.I haven't even checked my cell phone; I'm terrified of seeing a message or a call from Charles and having to respond. I don't know if I'll be able to confess what happened, let alone if I'll be able to face him after this.I berate myself for what happened, over and over again. I cry for hours on end and refuse to answer the phone, which has rung several times.When I look out the window, I notice that it's night already, and I haven't eaten anything

After a day of work and my boss randomly giving me an unwanted vacation, I went out to have lunch with my friend from the company."Claudia," Eva calls my name."Yes?""It's not her... Anna Rossetti?" she says with an affected voice, alerting my senses.I turn to where Eva points, and immediately spot the woman with long blonde hair and a slender figure pushing a baby carriage.Her daughter."Wait for me here," I ask my friend."But... Clau!"I start running to catch up with the woman walking ahead of me.This is my chance if I finally want to know about him."Anna," I call her name, taking her by the arm as I catch up, causing her to turn towards me.I can't describe the expression that crosses her face when she sees me. I don't think either of us expected this."Let go of me," she snaps with disgust, and I quickly withdraw my hand. "It's unthinkable that one can't even walk down the street without running into this kind of scum.""Anna, please listen to me," I ask, following her."Y

The sound of the sea waves wakes me up, and I realize that the space next to me is empty.I fell asleep before Alessandro arrived, but judging by the messy sheets and the scent lingering on them, I know he slept with me.I leave the room in search of Alessandro."Good morning, Lena," I greet her."Good morning, miss," she greets me back. "You woke up very beautiful this morning.""Thank you," I reply with my cheeks turning red."Will you have breakfast?""Yes, please," I answer, following her to the kitchen. "Hey, Lena, do you know where Alessandro is?""Your husband went for a run a while ago, miss," she says, causing my face to blush."He's not my husband yet," I say, taking a seat."Oh, well, he refers to you as his wife, so I assumed the feeling is mutual.""It's just that…""You're awake," I hear him say behind me, the owner of that voice that completely drives me crazy. "Good morning," he says as he reaches my side, stealing a kiss that leaves me breathless.He has no intention

"Daughter, please. Give us a sign of life. We're very worried about you," says one of the audio messages I play.Damn it.With trembling fingers, I dial her number, and after a few rings, I finally hear her voice."Claudia, is that you?" I hear her say with a worried tone."Mom.""Daughter," she responds distressed. "My girl, tell me you're okay.""Mom, calm down, I am.""Oh my god, Claudia!" I hear her exclaim amidst sobs."Is it her?" I hear another voice ask. "Can you pass her to me?""Claudia, is that you?" they say, and now I realize it's Eva."Eva, how are you?""How am I, Claudia!? We're all so worried about you. Where are you?""Uh...""Why did you disappear like this?""I..." I stutter as I think about what response to give. "Uh, I... needed some time for myself, just like you said, friend.""But why not tell us, Claudia? And can we know where you are?""No.""No?"Damn it."Because...""Claudia, you have to come back. We were about to go to the police to report a missing per
