Husband Novel 345

Chapter 345 The Past

Sofia raised her head as Leonardo entered the opulent living area. Her eyes lit up, and a radiant smile graced her beautiful face. It was impossible for Leonardo not to smile in return; every time he saw her innocent expression, his stone heart came alive. The way Sofia's eyes sparkled when she looked at him made him feel like the center of her universe.

But a nagging fear haunted Leonardo's mind. How would he ever survive if she decided to leave him once their contract marriage was over? The thought sent a chill down his spine, disrupting the warmth he felt in Sofia's presence. He realized he had unconsciously furrowed his brow, mirroring the worry that had replaced Sofia's smile.

Oh, my angel, your smile is everything to me. I must find a way to bring it back to your face, he pondered, shaking his head slightly as if to dispel his troubled thoughts. With determination, he continued his stride toward her.

However, his progress was interrupted when he heard Bella's voice calling out to him.

"Leo! Wait," Bella called, her voice cutting through the air and causing Leonardo to pause mid-step. He turned to face his cousin, his expression inquiring.

Bella gestured for him to follow her. "Come with me. I want to talk to you," she said, her tone carrying a sense of urgency. Leonardo nodded silently, his curiosity piqued. He followed Bella as she led him to a secluded corner at the back of the hall, away from prying eyes and curious ears.

Leonardo stood in silence, his gaze fixed on Bella as she stared back at him, her eyes narrowed in suspicion. The tension in the room was palpable, like a smoldering fire waiting to ignite.

"What's wrong with you, Leo? Why are you taking sides with that slut?" Bella spat out the words, her voice dripping with venom. The moment they left her lips, Leonardo could feel his blood start to boil, his temper threatening to erupt.

"Mind your language, Bella," he growled, his voice laced with barely contained rage. "You are talking about my wife."

Bella's incredulous gaze locked onto Leonardo as if he had sprouted another head. Her disbelief was written all over her face. "Seriously, Leo? Are you the same Leonardo Morelli? You're talking about a girl you hated and didn't want to marry. Did you forget that you were forced into that marriage? You were supposed to marry Kat Ricci but ended up marrying her half-sister."

Leonardo scoffed, unable to believe Bella's audacity. He turned his back to her, his jaw clenched tightly. What was she trying to prove with her words?

"But the reality is that I am married to Sofia, and she is my wife. So what's your point in discussing this? I don't want to dwell on whatever happened in the past. I believe in living in the present and thinking about the future," Leonardo said firmly, hoping Bella would grasp his perspective and drop the topic.
