Vincent had waited in the hospital’s ventilation duct all night, and when the soldiers guarding me changed shifts at dawn. he pried open the window of my ward
“Jump” He spread his arms below me, his eyes blazing with unshakable resolve.
I closed my eyes and jumped.
He caught me, but fell to the ground himself, never loosening his grip even when his elbow cracked.
After we escaped to a safe abandoned warehouse, he sat down against the wall, his shirt soaked through with sweat.

He grabbed my hand and pressed it to his chest.
It thudded fast and hard beneath my palm.
“Isabella. his eyes were terrifyingly bloodshot. “listen to me. If I can get you out of here today, nothing will ever be able

He fished something out of his pocket.
It was a thin silver ring, bought from the Brooklyn flea market, covered with faint scratches.
He had crookedly carved the letter “I” on its inner band.
His fingers trembled as he slipped it onto my finger.
“Once I get a firm foothold. I will definitely replace this with the biggest diamond ring inlaid with the finest sapphires
will let the whole world know that you are my woman, Vincent’s woman”
Has voice cracked he was convinced I had suffered unbearable hardship just to be with him
The sunlight that day was just as bright and searing as it is now gilding his young face and catching the bright

I put down the iced americano in my hand and asked her. “How long has Lena Golla been employed?”
“Three months.” I nodded and asked no more questions. “Since Vincent approved it, follow the standard procedure
The assistant stayed where she was, twisting the corner of her blouse with her fingers.
*Donna… there’s something I don’t know if I should say.”
“Go ahead”
The first day you left for your business trip, she… she dragged Don Vincent onto your seat…”
The assistant sniffed, her expression awkward, “I heard noises when I passed by, she laughed and said she wanted to push
the thrill as far as it could go.”

A strange number had sent a photo
The moment opened it I didn’t even realize what it was at first
Until I made it out it was my office
The girl with her face blocked was sitting on my very chair, and Vincent was leaning down to kiss her

I didn’t reply
But at that moment, something solid in my chest crumbled completely.
That was why I decided to come back to handle the urgent matter of “divorce“-
