Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(dark dominant voice) ❄️❄️ Listen Arabella Forte, go and tell grandpa to cancel this engagement. I don't want to be bounded to you anymore. These fùçķiñg five years I've been tolerating you more than enough.
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(tries to go towards him) 😢 Ma..Max, I...I..
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(dark dominating voice) ❄️❄️ Stop right there !! Don't try to come near me..
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(standing still with trembling body)
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
❄️❄️ You will go and cancel our engagement. And that's final..
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(pursed her lip)
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
❄️❄️ Now get out of here (rude tone)
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(with trembling voice) M..Max, everyone knows that we bo.. both are engaged. I..I don't think it..it is a good idea to break this eng..engage ment..
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(became more furious after hearing) 💢💢
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(looks at her with disgust)
(dark voice) ❄️❄️ No one knows about us except our family and friends. The whole world knows that I'm a bachelor who has never been in a relationship. I'm trapped in this engagement with a woman like you because of your damn uncle. (grits his teeth) ❄️❄️
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(heart throbs 💔 )
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
❄️❄️ That's why it's better to break the engagement before it spreads in the entire city.
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(sorrowful trembling voice) Ha..have you e..ever like.. liked me for a second..?
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(scoffs) ❄️❄️Heh.. like you..? I can't even look at your bìtchy face... And you're talking about like..?
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(controlling her tears)
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(lit up cigarette) ❄️❄️ Moreover, you don't deserve to stand beside me. For me, you are not up to the standards of the Lombardi family.
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(goes towards her and looks at her with hatred) ❄️❄️ Don't even dream of becoming the wife of the Lombardi family. Go and say that to your damn uncle too..
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(looking down with tears forming in her eyes)
(Heart sank 💔 after hearing his harsh words)
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(murderous aura )❄️❄️❄️ NOW FÙÇĶING GET OUT OF HERE..
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(flinched)
Shiver runs down Arabella's body, which makes her run away from there instantly with fear stuffing up in her body.
Chapter 1
I've been engaged to Maximilian Lombardi for five years, which was arranged within our two families in secret. I love him so much and was ready to do anything for him. I tried everything to please him and to reach his standards, but everything was in vain.
My parents are not alive. They passed away in a car accident when I was 5 years old, and my brother was 10, leaving me and my elder brother alone in this world.
My father's younger brother, my uncle, adopted us and treated us like their own children. He and his wife are the sweetest people who didn't differentiate us and their own children.
My uncle has two daughters and two sons. They treat me and my brother as their own siblings. Even though we were without parents, we didn't feel ourselves as orphans due to their immense love and care. Moreover, they urged us to call them as dad and mom, but we never called them..
It was early in the morning. Arabella got out of her bed and freshened up and headed towards the dining room..
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(saw no one was there in the dining area, except Alfonso and Silvia) Good morning uncle, Good morning Aunty. 😊
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
(saw Arabella)😊 Good morning Bella, come and have your breakfast.
Alfonso Forte (FL's uncle)
Good morning, sweetheart..
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
Uhm.. Aunty, uncle, where are the others..?
Alfonso Forte (FL's uncle)
They were running late since they have a trip today. I heard them saying that you didn't give your name for the trip. So they hurried to their college and you were in a deep sleep so they didn't even bother to call you..
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
Oh yeah, I forgot they have a trip today..😅
Alfonso Forte (FL's uncle)
Have your breakfast dear, today I will drop you.. How about that? 😉
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(giggles) OK uncle...
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
No.. Bella, today you're coming with me.. We both can go shopping on the way . I told my ungrateful daughters, but they were busy with their own matters.. 😤
Alfonso Forte (FL's uncle)
Come on, honey, they were just too excited for their trip..
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
Yeah, yeah.. spoil them how much ever you want and then see the outcome of it..💢💢
Alfonso Forte (FL's uncle)
👀 (eye talk with Arabella) Console her..
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(nods ) Aunty, don't worry, I will accompany you for the whole day..
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
🥺Aww.. how sweet of you.. But, won't you miss your classes.. ? (concerned)
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
Not much... Because most of the students will be going for their trip so I don't think the professor is going to teach anything..
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
(excited) Alright then..
Alfonso Forte (FL's uncle)
(relieved)
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(smiles)
Chapter 2
Arabella and Silvia went shopping ...
In the girls dressing section..
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
Arabella, choose whatever you want..
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
😅No.. no.. aunty, I don't want anything for now..
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
😠What 'no' ? Go and get a good dress, and also choose for Cecilia and Emilia too. Let's give them a surprise..😉
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
Bu..but aunty..
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
I don't wanna hear anything. Just go and get it..
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella

Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
❄️ Mom, you go. I will be here inspecting the products..
Maximilian and his mom came to inspect the products of the mall as the mall belonged to the Lombardy family..
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
(serious tone) Come with me.. At least respect the elders..
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(roles his eyes) ❄️Fine..
Lysandra and Silvia hugged each other with excitement..

Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
* It's better if that crazy pest doesn't see me...*
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
Aww.. don't worry..😗 .. But where is she..? (looking here and there for Arabella)
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
She is choosing a dress for herself and dresses for my two crazy daughters, too...
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
Oh..
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)

Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
* 💢💢This whole family brainwashed my family ...*
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
Don't mind this boy's words.. Let's go to the nearby cafe.. (pulls Silvia by her hand)
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
OK.. then let me go and inform Bella..
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
It's fine.. Let Max go and find her..
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
❄️❄️What !!
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
(looks at Max's index finger) * He still doesn't wear the ring..*
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
(serious tone) Go and search Bella and inform her that her aunt is with me..
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
❄️❄️ If you want, you can go.. I don't want to go near to that crazy woman..(Went away from there)
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
🗣MAX !!
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
😬This boy
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
Leave it..
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
(apologetic) I'm sorry for his behaviour..
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
Is he still angry because of the force engagement ? 🙂
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
(sigh) Yeah, it's been five years of their engagement... Time flows by, but the heart doesn't change sometimes ...
Lysandra Lombardy (ML's mom)
Let's go from here.. It's been a long time.. Let's go and chat in the cafe. (dragged her)
Silvia Forte (FL's aunt)
(being dragged) Yeah🙂
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(checking the products)
Maximilian Lombardy (ML)/ Max
(pissed) * That woman shouldn't appear in front of me..*
Arabella Forte (FL)/ Bella
(selecting the dress & talking to herself) These both the dresses are pretty.. Which one would be good for Emilia..?
