Kai was still crying, clutching my hand, confessing over and over. 

But echoing in my mind were those worried eyes from six months ago when my brother Dante had come to 

find me. 

“Gia, Kai’s ambition is too big. I don’t trust him.” 

‘The Romano family will initiate the ‘Phoenix Plan’-we’ll publicly declare bankruptcy. I want to use this opportunity to really test him.” 

‘If he can weather this storm with you, it proves he truly loves you.” 

‘I’ll hand over all the Romano family’s domestic assets for him to manage.” 

But if he can’t pass this test…” 

My brother hadn’t continued, just sighed. 

Back then, I’d vehemently defended Kai, saying he wasn’t that kind of person, that my brother was 

verthinking. 

Looking back now. 

How laughable I was. 

News of the Romano “bankruptcy” spread throughout the city, with my brother “fleeing overseas to escape 

lebt.” 

or the first few days, Kai had put on quite a performance. 

He held me, gently comforting me, swearing that even if the Romano family fell, he’d support our household.

believed him. 

But the truth? 

He couldn’t even be bothered to keep up the act for a full month. 

He started staying out all night, coming home reeking of unfamiliar perfume.

The way he looked at me changed from heartache to impatience, and finally to naked disgust. 

“Gianna, you’re just some bankrupt heiress now. What can you do besides drag me down?” 

‘If I didn’t pity you, I would’ve divorced you ages ago!” 

Every word he spoke was like a knife stabbing my heart. 

wo days ago, his precious Scarlett returned from abroad in grand style. 

He didn’t bother hiding it-brought her straight into our home.

During the struggle, Kai shoved me hard, and my lower abdomen slammed into the sharp corner of the

ut Kai just coldly called an ambulance and didn’t even spend one night with me at the hospital. 

Intil yesterday, when I’d just finished the procedure, my body so weak I could barely stand.

Gianna! What are you trying to do now! Scarlett came to check on you out of kindness, and you want to bully her?” 

He didn’t even ask if I’d been burned. 

For that woman’s sake, he dumped me-his wife who’d just miscarried-on a mountain in subzero 

emperatures. 

Lying in that snow, consciousness fading.

In that moment, I was completely awake. 

Kai had never loved me, Gianna Romano, as a person. 

He loved the status of being the Romano family heiress, the resources and position the Romano name could 

give him. 

Once I lost my utility, I became mud under his feet, a burden he desperately wanted to shed. 

He even wanted me DEAD. 

Gia, our eight years together-have you really forgotten all of it? I love you! I really do love you!” 

Lai’s wailing continued in my ears, so desperate, so seemingly sincere. 

He gripped my hand, tears and snot covering his face, trying to use that cheap emotion to awaken my 

emories. 

slowly pulled my hand back, looking at this face I’d loved for eight years. 

Tow I felt nothing but endless disgust.

Looking at you now just makes me sick.”
