Love Crumbles on the Wedding Eve

---- Chapter 8 That day, Rosario told me a lot of things. For example, he told me how he once saw me stand up to my famiglia-ripping the priceless emerald necklace from my neck in fury and walking away without looking back. Ihad abandoned my noble status and left without looking back. Rosario had been standing at the doorway then, his heart pounding wildly. Even someone like him could only submit to fate. Yet a girl who looked so fragile had dared to fight back. He was utterly astounded. We were both people who longed for freedom. But unlike me, Rosario didn't choose to run away.

Instead, he chose to climb relentlessly until he reached the very top, where no one could interfere with his choices ever again. After hearing all that, I laughed softly. "So, after you made it to the top, you turned around and threatened my papa into arranging this marriage?" ---- Rosario hung his head low. After a while, he quietly said, " I'm sorry. I just wanted to see you again." Looking at the aggrieved look on his face, I let out a soft chuckle. "It's alright. I'm just thinking it's fortunate that it was you.

And I'm glad you came in time." I took the ring box and gently slid it toward him. "Will you put it on for me?" Rosario froze for a moment, and overwhelming joy flooded his eyes. He picked up the ring and slowly slipped it onto my ring finger. The scene I had once waited for through countless days and nights was finally fulfilled by someone else. Yet unexpectedly, my heart felt at ease. I picked up the men's ring and put it on Rosario's finger. I've been through a failed relationship, Rosario. If you ever betray me in the future-" "I won't!" he replied firmly. I smiled faintly.

"Love can change in an instant. I don't believe in other people; I only believe in myself. If you no longer love me one day, I'll calmly take off this ring and continue living my life well." Rosario looked at me with deep affection. Then, in front ---- of everyone, he intertwined his fingers with mine. It was suddenly pouring by the time we were leaving. Rosario pulled me into his embrace. Simone and Jasmina's wedding photo flashed across the screen of the city's largest billboard. I thought I would be upset, but I no longer felt anything now.

I could only feel the warmth of the person holding me. Our wonderful days continued until the night before the wedding, when Mr. Bianchi suddenly called me. He said, "Zoe, you have to convince Mr. Pozzi to return to the office. Ever since you left, he's been drinking himself to oblivion every day. He doesn't even care about the wedding that's happening soon. Ms. Leone had no choice but to threaten him with public opinion. "But he blew up after seeing their wedding photo on the big screen. He even said that... He won't marry her. Ms.

Leone was so furious that she slapped him in front of the entire company and told him she'd only gotten close to him just to use him. Mr. Bianchi continued, "Mr. Pozzi completely trashed his ---- office. Everyone in the office was anxious. You don't know just how many competitors we've gained ever since you left, Zoe. It's as if they're targeting us on purpose. Our stock price keeps dropping..." "I know." I glanced at Rosario, who was arranging the bridal bouquet nearby. "Tell that madman that everything he's going through is the price of betraying me.

And the stock drop is just a small punishment from my husband." After ending the call, I saw the smirk on his face as he drew out the word deliberately. "Husband, huh?" Thit Rosario's chest in embarrassment, but he grabbed me and pulled me close. Then, he held my head and kissed me. The snow swirled wildly outside the window. Amidst it all, a black Porsche stood out, its occupant staring intently at the couple embracing above. His eyes were bloodshot.
