For a moment, I’m certain my ears are only deceiving me, so I get closer and rest the side of my face right against Vanessa’s bedroom door.
When I hear her loud and clear, my lips curve into a smirk of satisfaction. She’s definitely crying and it feels great to see her miserable. I guess I got back at her after all.
She must have come to my bedroom and heard Carmella moaning.
What a hypocrite. Acting like she didn’t want me yet hearing me in the other room hurt her that much.

She may not have worn the lingerie for me in preparation for our wedding night, but her being all alone finally got to her because she’ll never be Carmella,
As I walk away, I chuckle softly.
There’s been so many times when Vanessa acted like she was all that. It was because she knew I couldn’t get rid of her and needed her just to please my parents.

After reaching for my phone. I come downstairs and sit by the fireplace.
As soon as I turn it on, it constantly buzzes with notifications and I know what they’re all about. This time, I pay no attention to them and only wish to see something specific.
While I type in the words Little Warriors, the name of my children’s hospital, I smile at the thought of the critical surgery
