Joana's Background

"I've seen this ticket. I… was on that ship too, right?" Natalie boldly speculated.

Anthony raised his eyes, looked at her, and gave her a soft hum.

"So you're really sad because Silvi is your ex-girlfriend, aren't you?" Natalie was a little embarrassed.

After asking this, Natalie felt her face heat up a little. Why is he making so much of this.

Anthony stared in amazement.

He threw the photo at Natalie. "Think about it for yourself! That's Silvi. Just conclude it yourself!"

Natalie lowered her head and was even more embarrassed after seeing it.

The photo is a photo of two people who look familiar and both are men.

One of them was Anthony, and beside him should be Silvi.

Silvi looks just 17 or 18 years old. His facial features were excellent, one could say better than Anthony's. He had a pair of peach eyes, his skin was white and smooth, beautiful facial features, his arms around Anthony and he smiled beautifully.

If that man had changed his short hair into long hair, he would definitely have a peerless beauty. Unfortunately, he is a real man.

"This..." Natalie felt embarrassed.

"He's my brother! This is the only picture of us together!"

Seeing Silvi's figure in the photo, Anthony's face became very gloomy. He held the wine glass on the table in a low voice. "His full name is Daniel Silva Stevano, I used to tease him by calling him Silvi, and I don't know since when that name has stuck with him all his life. From childhood, he was a very good boy... I caused all this. If he doesn't do it for me, he won't die!"

Anthony suddenly clenched his fists and hit them hard on the table.

The whole man fell and howled in pain, holding his face with both hands and rubbing it hard. His eyes were empty and his whole body was shaking.

"Damn it, it's my fault. Why didn't I die!"

The trembling voice was full of regret.

After a long time, Anthony suddenly stood up, aimed his head and hit the wall hard. "This is all my fault, this is my fault! I'm sorry!"

Natalie took a deep breath, suddenly stepped forward and hugged Anthony tightly.

Yes, she knows the pain.

She also lost her parents in the shipwreck. She understood the pain and despair… She was also immersed in it for a long time. She wished that she could die together with his parents.

"My head, my head hurts..."

Anthony started to go crazy again, holding his head in both hands.

Yes, Silvi is a taboo subject. Every time Silvi's name was mentioned, her migraines would strike.

Silvi is the source of all ills! Because he felt guilty for Silvi's death, he couldn't get out of that horrible shadow and count all his mistakes in his own head. Therefore, he could let go of his guilt by torturing himself ruthlessly.

Seeing his bloody forehead, Natalie was depressed.

"Anthony, wake up. Maybe Silvi isn't dead, he's still alive. Maybe he's still alive somewhere else!"

She hugs him and screams loudly.

"Since his remains have not been found, it shows that there is hope for him to be alive! Anthony, don't give up!"

After a long time, Anthony suddenly turned around. A pair of red eyes stared at her, and the blood on his forehead dripped onto his handsome face.

Suddenly, he was half kneeling, hugging Natalie and muttering faintly.

"Do not leave me!"

Natalie was stunned, and gradually the strength in the man's hands loosened.

There was movement in the bedroom door. It was David with a group of servants looking at him in amazement.

"Miss Natalie, we found the medicine!"

Natalie shook her head. "No need!"

Yes, Anthony really had fallen asleep in her arms like a child.

That night, Anthony leaned sideways in Natalie's arms and fell asleep.

Anthony held her like this the whole time. At first, they were lying on the sofa. But Natalie felt uncomfortable sleeping on the narrow couch.

Finally, she pushed her back, and the man's entire body immediately slipped onto the floor.

Natalie then took the blanket and slept on the floor with him.

Fortunately, these high-grade cashmere rugs are incredibly comfortable and no worse than a bed once covered with a blanket.

She took the medicine box sent by David and carefully bandaged Anthony's wound.

Gently caressing his handsome and pale cheeks, traces of heartache filled the corners of her heart.

Quietly, Natalie gently lowered her head and left a small kiss on his lips.

"Anthony, I like you too! I really like you..." A sweet smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

After revealing a secret about his brother, her love for Anthony shoots back. Seeing his love for Silvi, Natalie knows that Anthony is a responsible man.

At this time, Joana rushed over after receiving a call from David.

"How is the president now? I've brought the medicine." Joana asked anxiously. She was in a hurry all the way. She didn't even change his pyjamas, she came straight in wearing a jacket.

David shook his head. "He is fine. Now that Miss Natalie accompanies him, the young master doesn't need the pills anymore."

"Natalie? She returns?" Joanna was a little surprised.

"Yes! But it has nothing to do with you, you can go back!"

"I want to go and see it!" Joana said anxiously.

"I just explained that he doesn't need you. You can leave! Someone, send this young master's assistant away!"

With a cold face, David waved, and two bodyguards immediately came over.

"Father, are you crazy? Over the years, if you hadn't gotten in my way, again and again, I would have been with Anthony!" Joana's face was a little fierce.

David's face no longer had a smile but a serious look.

He looked at Joana with a straight face.

"Never forget your identity! You are my daughter, and our family has served the Stevano family for generations. You can only be a servant, you can't turn into a master."

"Mother is right, you are a stubborn old man!" Joana was furious, her high heels hitting the floor hard.

Offending his dead wife, David's face turned darker than before.

"I never thought of myself as a servant, father must understand that! I am a graduate of the Management Department from Harvard University, I inherited my mother's beauty and her humility. Don't you know how many men are after me?! With my experience and appearance, "With this, why can't I be with Anthony? Let me see Natalie. How can an ordinary woman like Natalie be Anthony's partner?"

David's face was still flat. "Miss Natalie's situation is different. They're just... Contract lovers!"

Joana was suddenly taken aback. Her slender fingers curled and held her chin. Surprise flashed across her beautiful eyes.

At this moment, she suddenly felt relieved.

She didn't run away anymore, and her face became calm. She glanced at David vaguely.

"You know why mom didn't let me use my name again until she died? Mom gave me a new name because she didn't want me just to be a servant bound by sickening traditions like you. That ridiculous fate of your family weighed on me and dragged me down!" Joana said calmly, hastily turned around and left quickly in her high heels.
