Chapter 231

A fleeting glance at the welcome party stole my heart.

I didn't come from a proud family, nor did I possess an exceptional appearance.

All I had were diligence and intelligence.

So. for four years in college, I studied and interned with all my might.

This earned me the opportunity to interview at the Stellaris Group.

Only then did I finally have the chance to stand proudly in front of Antonio and tell him my name.

It took me five years to get by Antonio's side, but he dashed my hopes in just one night.

I managed a weak smile, trying to keep things grown-up.

Opening the door, I didn't look back.

"Come in."

Antonio's eyes brightened, and he followed me inside.

"Two sugars, no milk."

I made a cup of coffee and placed it in front of Antonio before sitting on another sofa.

Antonio's voice was somewhat hoarse.

"You still remember."

I smiled but didn't respond.

"Since you came to me, you must have seen the divorce papers, right?

"I don't want half your property; I just want custody of Ivan."

Antonio's breathing hitched as he looked up at me.
