Chapter41
Across the street, a figure Antonio was familiar with, holding a bouquet of lilies of the valley, was opening a car door and was about to get in.
“Grace! Grace…”
In that second, Antonio, who had almost given up, shouted desperately, his heart beating frantically again.
He scrambled up, vaulted over the railing, and rushed over, throwing caution to the wind.
However, the car had already started.
Without hesitation, he rushed in front of the car, stopping it with his own body.
The screeching sound of tires scraping the ground pierced the air.
Every passer–by was shocked by Antonio’s crazy moves.
A minute later, a woman got out of the car.
It was Grace, the woman he had pined for every day.
All of a sudden, his entire world became so quiet.
He even forgot to breathe.
He forgot when it was and where he was.
All he did was stare at her.

His mind was filled with only one thought. If this was a dream, he just wanted to be in it forever.
However, in the next second, the woman broke free forcefully and scanned his face. After a while, she said coldly, “Who are you?”

Antonio trembled. His heart sank before he even had a chance to rejoice.
Clutching her shoulders, he said, his voice shaking, “Grace, it‘ me. I’m Antonio. Your damned husband Antonio!”
She frowned slightly, remaining indifferent. “I don’t know you Please let go.”
“No. Grace, don’t punish me like this. Please… I’m begging
you…
“Over the past year, I’ve spent every day repenting and missing you.
“Finally, I found you. Don’t pretend that you don’t know me, OK?”
However, no matter how sincerely he pleaded, she wasn’t moved at all.
On the contrary, she repeated coldly with a look of disgust, “Please let go.”

“No! Never! I’ll never let you slip away from me again! I swear!”
In the next second, someone pulled Antonio away and punched him to the ground with great force.
