''I'm being honest with you...Charlie and I had something at a party when he was drunk...it was when you were distancing yourselves from each other...it was nothing serious, I assure you...'' I spoke sincerely to Alexandra.

''Are you sure there was never anything more than friendship between you and Charles?'' she asked me, still very hurt.

''I promise you...Charles is a good man and he only wants you. Give him a chance to explain himself...'' I responded warmly.

''okay..fine...'' she said with a smile, wiping away her tears.

Gently, I submitted to a hug from her.

-------------

''Get the fuck out of my room...'' I almost shout at him.

''Listen to me already and stop being so damn stubborn!'' he responds just as frustrated.

''What do you want?'' I ask, crossing my arms.

''I'm sorry...about the kiss with Luisa...'' he says, our eyes meeting again.

''I don't give a fuck...there will always be another woman...'' I avert my gaze.

''Oh? Is that how you see me? Let's start again from the beginning...'' he replies, leaning against my wall.

''Just fuck off and fuck her,'' I say rudely.

''Fucking hell...'' he raises his voice.

''Don't you get it?'' he asks angrily again.

''fuck off, norris..before i kick you out myself...''

''That kiss meant nothing to me...'' he raises his voice again.

''Oh, and I'm supposed to believe you? After all, you slept with almost all of Monaco...'' I say nastily, immediately regretting it.

''But I only remember our nights...'' his shaky voice sounds.

Rain splashes loudly against the windows of my room. Regretfully, I look towards him, his gaze meeting the floor. Quietly, I stride towards him.

''It doesn't matter what we feel or want...we can't do this...and I'm sure the right woman is out there waiting for you...'' I spoke maturely, hurting myself to even get it past my lips.

His face immediately lifted. I recognized his wet eyes immediately.

''Fuck all other women...I just want this complicated girl who taught me how to love and how to be loved...'' he spoke shakily.

I place myself in front of his body. I gently wipe away his tears.

''I hate seeing you like this...'' I whisper, also on the verge of tears.

''I don't...'' he says.

His warm fingertips reach my cheeks.

''norris...''

''say no..and I'll never touch you again...'' he whispers, his eyes tracing mine.

''you know I can't say no to you..we can't..I don't want to hurt anyone...'' I spoke vulnerably.

''and what about yourself? How long have you been hurting yourself because you can't love me? he whispers.

Now tears leave my eyes too.

''Love?'' he whispers, his fingers pushing my chin up so I can catch his eyes.

''I love you...'' he says again.

Moving closer to my face, he places his lips on mine. Slowly and tenderly we kiss, while I close my fingers around his neck, his hands find their way around my hips. We continue the kiss with feeling. But he unexpectedly breaks off the kiss.

''Amalia...'' he says roughly.

''What is it?'' I ask, running my fingers through his curls.

''Maybe you're right after all...'' he says softly.

''What do you mean?'' I knew it was nothing positive.

''Maybe it's time to look for someone else...Matteo would be a good man for you...'' he said.

My heart was bursting.

''What? How can you say that? I asked brokenly, his hands untied.

''amalia...please. I only want what's best for you...''

''Can you finally decide what you want? I can't take this anymore...you kissed me a few seconds ago and now you want me to date another man?'' I break, tears moistening my face again.

''I don't know myself...I'm so broken...'' he says brokenly, starting to cry again himself.

''Decide now...me or other women?'' I ask, my voice shaky.

''Other women...'' he replied, his eyes no longer on me.

My wet eyes looked at the floor.

''Please leave...'' I just managed to get out.

Without another word, he left my room. Curled up in my bed, I cried myself to sleep, which didn't last long. I lay there all night, my thoughts drifting back and forth.

''Guys...Maria and I would like to tell you something...''Lewis raised his voice as we sat in a fancy restaurant.

I sat there in a long evening dress, my hands placed on my lap and my fake smile on. Charles and Alexandra have made up and are also sitting next to us. Lando and Luisa are sitting opposite me. He found a direct replacement - I was dying inside. With a fake smile, I turn my head to Lewis and Maria.

''I'll just come right out and say it...I asked Maria to be my wife yesterday and she said yes...''Lewis said with a big smile.

How should I react?

''Congratulations, guys...'' said Charles first.

''I'm very happy for you, bro...'' his voice rang out, and I saw that he had his hand on her thigh.

Swallowed behind.

''Sister? Are you okay with this?'' Lewis now responded to me.

''Yes of course...I'm very happy for you.'' I say with a fake smile and touch Maria's shoulder briefly.

''thank you...''

''Thank you...'' Maria says and gives me a quick hug.

Then she shows me her engagement ring on her finger.

''It's beautiful...'' I say to her.

''Are you okay?'' she asks me anxiously, taking hold of my hands.

''I'll be fine...'' I respond reassuringly.

''Why is he here with her?'' Maria whispers to me so that Lewis doesn't notice.

''He chose her...'' I whisper back.

Leaning back.

''I have something to tell you too...'' I said to the group.

Everyone's faces met mine.
