Chapter 56

The next week was hellish. Andrea remained furious for days and of course, didn't hesitate to take it out on me. But no matter how much he hurt me, it didn't make me regret what I did. I'd endure anything for Leo.

Luciano still lurked around too, making snide comments at every opportunity and throwing all of his nasty tactics and resources into provoking me. I had to try my best not to retaliate because Andrea would always take his side but when he mentioned how 'sexy' my four-year-old daughter, Lili, would be when she grew up, I couldn't resist any more and much to his amusement, I completely lost it.

After throwing a glass tequila bottle at him and inflicting a minor cut on his forehead, Andrea intervened and beat me so hard I passed out until the next morning when I woke up with a thudding headache and Luciano sat on the armchair opposite the bed grinning from ear to ear.

"You are relentless," I groaned, "please, can you just leave me alone?"
