Ivan’s personal mercenaries moved in and surrounded the area.
Leonardo gave me a long, deep look before he was finally forced to leave.
Dora immediately stepped forward and tried to help Leonardo home, but he acted as if he couldn’t hear her. Without a word, he
left her behind and drove off alone.
Watching Ivan remain silent, I began to nervously explain, “I did pursue Leonardo before, but we weren’t even lovers. I never
even slept with him.”
Ivan smiled gently as he ruffled my hair.
“Don’t worry. I won’t take his words seriously. I only believe you.
I stared at him, completely stunned, my face burning red.
Ivan doted on me so much that he took me to Las Vegas for a trip. He even bought an island and named it after me.
We watched the sunrise and sunset together. He loved me deeply and craved every inch of my skin. His kisses fell upon me, filling
me with his passion.
It turned out he was never cursed to bring misfortune to his fiancees, as rumors suggested. It had all been a lie spread by
Leonardo’s mother to strip him of his inheritance.
Our personalities complemented each other. We understood and tolerated one another effortlessly. In just a short time, we had
grown so attuned to each other that we felt like soulmates. Only now did I realize how much time I had wasted on the wrong
person.
But just a few days later, I suddenly received a message from a friend, congratulating me.
[Madeline, you’ve been chasing Leonardo for so many years, and you finally won his heart!
