All Chapters of The Tonali Brothers: Attractive and Dangerous.: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Lorient acted like the boss in the suite, ordering around left and right. She had told Bethany she had nothing to worry about, and boy did she mean it. The tantrum she threw when they brought her the wrong jewelry was no bigger than the one she threw when they showed up with the bouquet Bethany was supposed to be carrying. Sleepy white roses instead of lively red ones.-You're so late! When I ordered Belgian chocolates, I didn't think they'd come all the way to Belgium to bring them. - The bridesmaid scolded a delivery man who came in, embarrassed. Bethany wanted to say something in her defense, but she was afraid of Lorient's strong character.The maid of honor slammed the door shut once the boy was lying outside. She then turned to look at the bride with a smile. She was a complete lunatic.Both girls approached to eat the chocolates that would help calm their nerves, or at least that was the excuse that motivated them to eat them.-Are you mar

The wedding march began to play and, as tradition dictates, the guests stood up to see the arrival of the long-awaited star. Slowly, she appeared down the aisle strewn with red petals.The bride looked closely at her fiancé, standing at the end of the aisle. She felt trapped by fate, unable to decide. Her feet felt heavy as if they were tied to a huge ball of cement. Running away was not an option. Meanwhile, her mind repeated over and over again, in the smallest detail, Brahim and Ciro's conversation. Her skin crawled and her eyes filled with tears. The uninitiated believed it was a product of emotion, so they put their hands on their hearts, moved.Red gave her a kiss on the forehead before leaving her at the altar in the hands of Ciro Tonali. Bethany's heart threatened to burst out of her chest from how fast it was beating. The groom could see her anguish. He tried to take her hand to reassure her, but she rejected him without dissimulation and clung to the b

"A pair of black orbs staring at her in solemn darkness and hands squeezing her thin neck." This had been a recurring nightmare that had disturbed Bethany in her first days after awakening from her coma. She always believed it was a product of her fanciful subconscious, relegating her importance. Of course she was going to believe it like that, there was no point in giving her another explanation.A flight attendant arrived to draw her out of her thoughts. She offered her a Margarita, which Bethany accepted without a second thought.-It's the third one already. - The Italian observed.They were hundreds of meters above the ground, aboard Ciro's private plane; he was heading to his honeymoon. Bethany didn't say or do anything, she just drank her glass of liquor, losing herself in the white blanket of clouds they flew over.-Do you want to talk to me about what's happening to you? - Ciro insisted for the umpteenth time that day, tired of feeling so

The next morning, Ciro took her to see Rome, visiting every place they had visited ten years ago, when they had met. They also explored others for the first time. The Italian found the effects of love mind-blowing. How he could be fascinated by the capital of his own country as if it were the eighth wonder that had just been discovered. He knew that he felt that fascination for Bethany. At her side, everything, even the smallest thing, was fascinating, but nothing could surpass her. If her father had never fallen in love with anyone, it was because he had never met anyone like Bethany in his life.They went to a terrace to enjoy a delicious lunch in the best Italian style and with a prodigious view of the city.-Simon. - Bethany said suddenly during the meal. Cyrus repudiated talking about the dead.-What's wrong with him?- Do you think we should name our son that? - This didn't make him any happier. He wished she would give up the idea of being a mother, but he knew it was impossibl

Back in Florence, back to their daily lives, Bethany and Ciro went to the obstetrician, she with the fervent hope of having become pregnant during their heavenly honeymoon and Ciro feeling so miserable that he could not look her in the eye.They waited quietly in the specialist's office for him to return with the test results. The Italian had urged her to perform the test at home with a pharmacy test, without blood samples or other complicated procedures, but Bethany did not want to risk false positives.The door opened and the inexperienced woman sat up anxiously. Her husband, who had already known the outcome, took her hand in support."I'm sorry, Bethany. There's no baby," the doctor said when he was already seated in his chair on the other side of her desk. The woman's shoulders slumped and her fissures took on the clear signs of sadness.-I don't understand what's going on. We've followed all of his treatments to the letter. - She said disappointed.
