Antonio shoved Bonnie away without hesitation and strode toward me, his face pale. “Darling, what are you doing here?”
Caught off guard, Bonnie fell to the floor, not expecting Antonio to treat her like this because of me.
My expression remained icy as I stared at Antonio, the man who was both familiar and strange to me.
He panicked, clutching the hem of his clothes instinctively
while his forehead was covered in sweat.
Noticing my hostile expression, he forced a smile, though it was ugly.
He said, his voice slightly trembling, “I’m with a client. I didn’t know you were here, too. The car is up front. Wait for me there, OK? I’ll be right there.”
Before he could finish explaining, Bonnie had already gotten
- up.
She interrupted him, “Antonio! My parents are getting impatient waiting for you inside. Come with me.”
She stepped forward, intertwined her arm with his intimately, and glanced at me provocatively.
“Sorry, but Antonio has no time for you today. He’s got to eat with my parents. Right, Antonio?”
Saying this, she looked up at him, her eyes filled with

Yet, he shook her arm away immediately, looking angry and disgusted as if she were something filthy.
“Nonsense! We’re just colleagues. This is not funny.”
Turning back, he said to me hurriedly, “Darling, don’t take her word for it. She always makes inappropriate jokes. Tell you what? I’ll put work aside. Let’s go home. Your mom is expecting us, right?”
He reached out, trying to grab me, but I stood still.
Meanwhile, Bonnie’s eyes turned red at once, tears welling up in them.
“Drop the act, Antonio,” she said in a broken voice.
“Grace knows everything. You must choose between us today.”‘
Antonio looked at her in great disbelief, his eyes filled with
anger.
“You told her? What did I say to you? As long as she doesn’t find out about us, I’ll say yes to whatever you want. Have you forgotten?
“Why do you have to force me?”
Bonnie bit her lip, tears streaming down her cheeks.
“I insist on forcing you to choose.
“You must choose between us. Who will it be?

Antonio’s face turned red at once as he rushed forward to slap her face hard.
“I was just sweet–talking. You actually believe that? What makes you think I’ll divorce her because of you?”
After that, he turned to me slowly and looked at me pleadingly.
“Grace, she came on to me when I was drunk. Then we … did it accidentally.
“I’ll make a clean break with her. Please, just give me a chance. I won’t do it again. OK?”
I responded to him with an icy gaze.
At the same time, Bonnie cried pitifully.
“It won’t change anything, Antonio. I’ve already shown her everything, including our photos and chat history. She knows everything about us.
“You said my smile was like the warm sun in early spring and that you were only happy when you were with me. And you said you no longer loved her anymore.
“I just want you to leave her for good. What have I done wrong?”
While crying, she clutched his sleeve.

But his hands on both sides of his body trembled slightly, and there was a trace of distress in his eyes.
Just then, Bonnie’s parents walked out of the restaurant.
“What’s going on? Bonnie, what are you and Antonio doing here?”
