Should've known better than to let himself believe such a girl like her truly existed.
He was the Beast of New York.
Did he really think she'd always be loyal to him, and that no one would be able to steal her away?
Yes, I fucking did.
She knocked on his door at a quarter to midnight.
What the hell?
It seemed he was wrong about her, after all.
What he had assumed earlier was carelessness on her part was actually a complete absence of care, since she was now standing in front of him.
Damn her.
Did she mean to drive him crazy by saying goodbye before leaving him for another man?
"So..."
His wife had changed into a dark-colored shirt and jeans. Her face was bare of makeup, and her eyes were red-rimmed. She had obviously been crying, and she was just as obviously struggling to find the right words.
Why, dammit?
Why couldn't she choose him?
What did he have to do to make her choose him?
A part of Lorenzo was viciously tempted to show his wife just how much of a beast he could be and tell her there was no fucking way he would let her leave him.
But the other half of him was already dead.
Because he realized now that all he wanted was for her to be happy.
"You haven't told me what's the plan yet."
And if her being happy with another man was part of the plan—-
So be it, Lorenzo thought hollowly.
He had never imagined his wife could be this cruel or crazy, to actually expect him to protect her even when she was already with another man.
But so fucking be it.
His wife lifted her chin. "Whether you like it or not—-"
Lorenzo only stared at her. Did she really believe—-
"I'm coming with you."
—-he would understand what she meant by coming with him?
What the hell was she talking about?
"There's no need to pretend," his wife muttered. "I've lived my whole life with Giancarlo. Do you think I wouldn't spot someone paranoid like him from miles away? We both know this—-" Gazelle impatiently gestured to the necklace he had given her. "—-comes with GPS tracking and recording—-"
His wife ended up gasping as he yanked her inside his room.
