Too Nasty to Love: Goodbye Forever

Everyone in Astora is envious of Serafina Greco. She has a husband who loves her with all his heart. They throw a luxurious wedding that's worth 470 million dollars in total. In fact, she and her equally wealthy older brother, Niccolo Greco, will be having their weddings on the very same day.

That woman is practically a natural-born winner in life.

But just as Serafina's husband, Alessandro Madonia, is about to be made the next Don of the family, she decides to file for a divorce.

The lawyer sounds very shocked. "Are you sure you want to get a divorce from Alessandro?"

Serafina falls silent for a moment. Then, she nods in determination.

The moment she finds out that Alessandro, her perfect husband, is lying on the same bed as her sister-in-law, Matilde Denaro, on their wedding night, she has already made up her mind.

"Yes."

"Today marks a very special wedding. The Greco siblings are getting married on the same day. May both couples be united for life."

The Greco family's 470-million-dollar wedding gathered elites from every corner of Astora and caused a sensation across the city.

Everyone envied Serafina Greco, but no one could have imagined that her brand-new husband would be in her sister-in-law's bed.

Through the narrow gap of the door, Alessandro Madonia stood bare-chested while Matilde Denaro, who had just married into the family, leaned against him.

"Serafina won't wake up, right?"

Matilde's voice was soft, almost syrupy, as it drifted through the door.

"No. The sleeping pills in their drinks are strong enough to ensure both siblings have a good night's sleep tonight."

The moment Alessandro's voice sounded, something detonated inside Serafina's head.

That morning, she had believed she was the happiest woman alive. Now, it felt as though the rug had been pulled out from under her.

Inside the room, Alessandro lit a cigarette, his tone carrying a mix of resignation and indulgence. "You shouldn't have come here."

"How could I stay away when you're here?"

Matilde's voice held a trace of grievance as she continued, "You took 99 lashes to reject this marriage, and in the end, you still had to marry her."

"The Don threatened your life to force me into a marriage alliance with the Greco family. I didn't have a choice."

He looked at her with tenderness, and the affection between them was obvious, each thinking only of the other.

"The Don did it for you. Only by marrying a descendant of Ilyrian blood can you become the next Don," said Matilde.

Alessandro had taken 99 lashes to reject this marriage?

Serafina tightened her grip on the hem of her dress as the image of Alessandro's reddened eyes at their wedding ceremony surfaced in her mind.

So he hadn't been moved because he was marrying her—he had been grieving the fact that he couldn't be with the woman he truly loved.

She bit down so hard on her lip that she tasted blood and braced herself against the wall
