Escape (5)

"Would you dare? It's the Cliffs of Destruction, and even if you did, I couldn't let you go. Our beautiful life has just begun, and I'm planning to make love to you a few more times ..." said Antonio cynically, looking no different from a playboy who always walks through the flowers.

"Shut up? Stop blaspheming and impress the people who love you so much? I don't understand how the Countess of Ada can be so fond of you, you don't deserve her in my eyes. ..." Anna snapped.

"What are you talking about? How do you know Ada? Who is the one who loves me so much ...", Antonio heard Anna mention Ada and he was a different person for a moment. His previous cynical look disappeared in a flash, and he was now simply a man who had been through the emotional turmoil and had no choice.

"Stop pretending. Don't you know how your wife, Ada, feels about you? What I want to know is what happened to her ... Countess Ada? Is she dead or alive?" Anna did not know how she had chosen to ask this question at this moment, which had been hidden in her heart for some time, and she looked at Antonio with expectant eyes, hoping to hear the answer.

"Oh, my dear, poor Ada, she died in childbirth while giving birth to my child. ..." said Antonio to himself, as if recalling a painful experience.

"Did you ever really care for her when she was with you? You left her alone for months without a home, and your dear Ada, I don't think you had any feelings for her at all!" Anna said angrily.

"Yes, I admit I didn't cherish her in the past, I didn't come home in time to look after her when she was pregnant with my first child, she fell alone in the bathroom, then had a difficult birth and she died with my son. When I met you, I saw her in you, so I found that I was in love with you, come back with me Anna, Ada is dead and cannot come back to me, I have decided to treat you well, to cherish you and to let us live together ..." Antonio looked into Anna's clear I've decided to treat you right, to cherish you, to make our life together." Antonio looked into Anna's clear eyes and said seriously.

"The first child? How did you know, Count, that she was carrying your first child when she died in childbirth ... are you still a man? As a husband, you don't even know when your wife is pregnant, you don't even know that she has given birth to a daughter ... You care too much about your wife!" Anna complained angrily about his crime.

"What, what are you babbling about ...," Antonio said with a bewildered look on his face, his confused eyes staring at Anna as if searching for answers.

"See for yourself!" Anna tossed him the diary and the crumpled note in her hand.

He picked up the diary from the floor and looked at it page by page. Silence. Silence. The air seemed to stagnate. Antonio's face turned white.

Ah...

This time it was Antonio's turn to cry out as he read the note. He had never imagined that he had found a trace of Ada in Anna because she was his and Ada's daughter!

After a long time, he said to Anna with a sad face, "Come home with me, I will cherish you and we will live together!"

Anna looked at the abyss behind her and smiled dumbly, a smile of helplessness and despair. "I would rather choose this desperate cliff as my home than to have anything more to do with you!"

She paused, stopped looking at Antonio, turned and grabbed Alexandre's hand and said, "Alexandre, I love you, but even though we love each other in this life, fate has not fulfilled our destiny. As she said this, she released her grip on Alexandre's hand and jumped off the cliff.

Alexander didn't give Anna a chance to let go, he grabbed her hand with his back. He jumped off the cliff with her.
