Chapter 114: Collided
In her mind, Chloe''s voice resurfaced.
"A fat bitch like you doesn''t deserve a man''s affection."
"Do you really think men like you, you filthy whore? They just want to sleep with you."
"You''re nothing but a lowly bitch, only fit to clean toilets and live in the gutter."
In the past, every time Isabe recalled Chloe''s hurtful words, it would shatter her, plunging her into
darkness, overwhelmed by sadness and fear. But now, when she thought about what Chloe had
said, her emotions seemed calm. Those words no longer had the power to hurt her.
Instead, when she thought about everything she had experienced with Emanuele just moments
ago, about how he had looked at her with excitement, about how he had repeatedly collided with
her body, Isabe felt an overwhelming sense of happiness.
Thank God she had met Emanuele. She never would have imagined that the man she initially
thought of as a demon would make her feel like he was her entire world, like a god.
The next morning, when Isabe woke up, Emanuele was no longer by her side; he had be
busy once more. But there was good news: Emanuele was no longer restricting her from going out.
"As long as you stay within the city, you can go wherever you want," Tony told Isabe.
Isabe was overjoyed and immediately called Evelyn to go shopping. Now that she was married to
the head of the mafia, she couldn''t see her best friend as often as she used to. She could only
make ns to go shopping together.
"Sure, Isabe, I''ve missed you. Pippo had some family matters to attend to, so it''s just me at home
lately. I''ve been feeling so lonely," Evelynined as soon as she got on the phone.
"He went back home?" Isabe was a bit surprised. "I didn''t hear about that."
"Yeah, he took a week off; he won''t be back so soon."
"Alright, we''ll meet upter," Isabe said, hanging up. She went to her closet, put on a light blue
blouse with light gray jeans, and kept her outfit simple.
She met up with Evelyn at a nearby mall, and they went shopping together.
"Isabe, now that you''re the wife of the mafia boss, do you have more money than you can
spend?"
Isabe showed her the ck card she held in her hand. "Emanuele said I shouldn''t spend more
than a hundred thousand a month."
"Oh my God!" Evelyn eximed. "A hundred thousand? I can''t spend that much in a year, let alone
a month. How do you n to spend it?"
"Well, let''s start by buying you a couple of dresses. Do you like any jewelry? I can get that for you
too," Isabe assessed Evelyn and then smiled.
Evelyn hadn''t changed her appearance or style since before, so her friend was still the same. The
only thing different was her rtionship with Pippo, but it wasn''t that significant. Isabe, on the
other hand, stared at herself in the mirror. Her face was the same, but she had lost her youthful
innocence and gained a sense of maturity and solemnity. She didn''t look like a girl her age
anymore.
She had been through a lot to be the person she was now. She had lost many things, but she
had also gained a few. At least, it allowed her to ovee her psychological trauma.
Evelyn, hearing that Isabe was going to buy her clothes and jewelry, instantly perked up. She took
Isabe to an upscale boutique that she had never dared to enter before and purchased two
dresses and a pearl ne.
"Isabe, thank you. You have money now, but you haven''t forgotten your friends. I''m really
touched! I hope your rtionship with Emanuele keeps getting better," Evelyn said.
Isabe was left both amused and touched by Evelyn''s words.
"Alright, alright, I''m a bit tired after shopping all day. I feel like getting a massage. What do you
think?" Isabe asked.
It had been a while since she had a massage, andtely, she had been feeling quite exhausted and
needed some rxation.
Tony heard that Isabe wanted a massage and immediately said, "Mrs. Lombardi, you can''t just go
for a massage anywhere."
Isabe looked at Tony, questioning, "You mean I can''t even get a massage now? Didn''t Emanuele
say I can have some freedom?"
This "freedom" had so many conditions attached.
"I''ll contact the boss and see which massage ce is suitable for you," Tony replied, taking out his
phone to call Emanuele.

"Is it because many massage ces are run by men, and there''s undressing involved? I guess
Emanuele is worried about you being exposed," Evelyn whispered to Isabe, leaning in close to
her ear.
Isabe thought Evelyn''s guess made sense. With a man as possessive as Emanuele, who would
get jealous even if someone looked at her, he wouldn''t let another man touch her. He considered
her his private property, and that idea made Isabe ufortable.
But she knew she couldn''t change Emanuele''s mindset. She had already discussed it with himst
time, and he hadn''t listened to her. What could she do?
Soon, Tony finished his call and told Isabe, "The boss said we can go to a nearby massage ce.
They are all our people, and I''ll have them arrange female massage therapists."
Isabe looked at Evelyn, who nodded in agreement, and Isabe said, "Alright, let''s go. I won''t
mention where we''re going to avoid upsetting Emanuele."
As the massage ce was connected to the shopping mall, Isabe, Evelyn, and Tony only had to
cross an underground passage to reach it. They chatted and walked hand in hand when a man
walked out of a nearby store and identally bumped into Isabe. The man''s shopping bags fell to
the ground.
"Can''t you watch where you''re going? Do you even have eyes?" The man immediately used
Isabe, looking quite angry.
Isabe was momentarily stunned and instinctively apologized, "I''m sorry, I''m sorry. I wasn''t paying
attention."
She had indeed not noticed; she had been engrossed in her conversation with Evelyn.
"You''re such an impolite girl. Be more careful next time!" The man grumbled, appearing quite
irritable.
Just then, Tony swiftly approached, pushed the man against the wall, and grasped his neck. "What
did you say?" he demanded.
Harry also stepped forward, positioning himself in front of the man.
"What kind of people are you? nning to intimidate me?" The man adjusted his gold-rimmed
sses and red at Tony, appearing furious.
Although the two men confronting him appeared to be bodyguards and not to be messed with, the
man didn''t seem to be an easy target.
"Apologize," Harry said sternly.
"Apologize? When that woman clearly bumped into me, you want me to apologize?" The man,
despite his somewhat frail appearance, had an air of defiance that matched Tony and Harry.
"What''s your name?" Tony suddenly asked the man.
The man fell silent as if contemting whether to answer or not.
Isabe could clearly sense the nervousness in the man. His eyes started scanning the group of
them, and his Adam''s apple couldn''t stop bobbing up and down uncontrobly.
However, it was Tony''s words that truly terrified the man.
"Do you know who you just bumped into? Herst name is Lombardi."
As soon as Tony said this, the man began trembling even more, as if in utter disbelief.
"You should know that not long ago, Mr. Lombardi got married."
"No... No... I didn''t know that...," the man stammered in extreme panic, to the point where Isabe
began to wonder if he might have a panic attack, just like her. He was shaking like a sapling
swaying in a strong wind, on the verge of being uprooted.
