Chapter 1469 Don’t you blame me?
When Sabrina went to see Anna, she went straight to the door with the address Marcello had given her.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
And when Matteo found out that she was the one to come, he immediately rejected her, “Anna is pregnant, Mrs. Ronzi you’d better go back.”
When she heard this speech, Sabrina was stunned and realized that Matteo’s esteem for her was not warm, not about the feelings between a man and a woman, but that the little friendship that had remained between the two families, the Ronzi family and the Giordano family, had almost disappeared.
The thought of this made Sabrina’s heart ache.
If she had done nothing, or if she had not returned, she would not be as intolerant as she was now in Matteo’s heart, would she?
Unfortunately, it was too late to say anything; time could not turn back, just as she had lost her parents, neither of whom would return.
Seeing Matteo about to close, Sabrina remembered what Marcello had told her earlier and reached out her hand to stop the door.
“Wait a minute.”
Matteo stopped in his tracks, his eyes looking at her coldly, “Anything else?”
“I …” Sabrina’s throat caught and she could barely speak, it took her a few moments to regain her voice, “I came to apologize to Anna, I know she doesn’t want to see me right now, but I really came to find her, give me a chance to apologize, okay?”
Finally, Sabrina’s tone was pleading, and her eyes looked at Matteo expectantly.
But Matteo’s heart was so full of tenderness for Anna that he couldn’t help himself for anyone else, so he quickly rejected Sabrina’s offer again.
“An apology is not necessary, as long as you take care of her company from now on and stay away from us, I would be grateful.”
Hearing this, Sabrina looked a little horrified.
It seemed that Matteo really did not want to let her see Anna.
Just as Sabrina lowered her eyelashes and tried to leave in the half-light, a soft voice came from behind Matteo.
“Matteo, let her in.”
At those words, Sabrina abruptly looked up, walked to Matteo’s side, and saw Anna standing a short distance behind him.
Her face was no longer as pale as before, her cheeks had regained some of their vitality, and she was wearing a thick shawl and warm shoes on her feet, as if she had been well cared for.
When Matthew saw her, his gaze was slightly cold, then he softened and walked quickly toward her.
“Why are you downstairs? I thought I told you to stay upstairs.”
Anna was a little helpless when Matteo supported her. These days, Matteo had been taking care of her every moment, not only with his daily meals but also with his clothes and movements.
In short, after what happened at the wedding, Matteo is now in the shadows, afraid that if he leaves her again, something will happen to her.
Whenever Anna sees him clinging to her, she thinks of a time when he did not love her, when Matteo was really cold and did not even say a word to her.
But what to say now?
Was it true that the wind and water had turned, who had spared the sky?
“I’m fine, I’m getting bored with being upstairs every day, I heard a noise downstairs, so I came down to take a look.”
Matthew remembered what he had just said and grimaced, “I’ll walk you upstairs.”
Anna, however, pressed his hand and shook her head.
“I don’t want to go upstairs.”
Hearing this, Matthew half-closed his thin lips and said unhappily, “I don’t want you to see her.”
Even though he knew that Sabrina was not involved in that incident, Matteo could not be sure now that Sabrina really had no bad intentions toward Anna, and in case she tried to do something to her, he would go crazy then.
“It’s just a visit, it’s okay.” Anna bit her lower lip and whispered in Matteo’s ear, “She saved me before, she’s not a bad person, she won’t do anything to me.”
Matteo was not impressed, “People change, you and her were not friends from the beginning.”
“I know, but after all, she is the daughter educated by the Ronzi family, she wouldn’t have saved me last time if she was going to hurt me.”
This was the reason Anna did not tell Matteo about it at the time.
It was true that she had had a cold back when she had been almost victimized, but it was Sabrina who had come to her rescue, and although Anna did not know at the time that it was Matino, she felt that because Sabrina had been willing to release her in time, it meant that her heart was not bad.
In this case, it is easy to be good, but even harder to be bad.
Nature is good, and suddenly you are asked to do something harmful, how much do you have to endure psychologically and mentally?
So Anna trusts her vision.
“She’s here, she’s begging you, let her in.”
Matthew looked at Anna firmly, as if to confirm something, and Anna, seeing his discomfort, added, “I will protect myself well and nothing will happen to me.”
“Should I see?” Matthew asked.
Anna nodded.
In the end, Matteo humored her.
Sabrina was finally invited into the house, and the two of them sat on the sofa. Matteo would have liked to sit next to her and listen, but Anna asked her to leave and then asked two maids to keep an eye on her and make sure Anna was protected first if anything happened.
After Matteo left, Sabrina said with a bitter smile, “He really protected you very well.”
At those words, Anna was slightly surprised before saying, “It wasn’t like that before, I should thank your friend for why he cares so much for me now.”
Her friend?
Sabrina’s lips parted slightly, “You mean Matino?”
“Yes.” Anna nodded and then said, “I’ve been staying home and reading a lot of news online lately, and of course I know who the real villain is, and then after poking around a bit I found out that he’s been stalking you.”
Sabrina said nothing.
“Last time at the cafe, he made the move, didn’t he?”
Sabrina lowered her eyes and her lashes fluttered, “Yes, he was the one who made the move, and after you went to the bathroom he told me I would do it to you, and I got scared, so …”
“So you ran to my rescue without thinking twice.”
“Yes.”
“Thank you.”
Hearing a sudden thank you, Sabrina looked up in dismay at her.
“Thank you for stopping it then, I don’t know what I would have done that day if not for you.”
Facing his sincere eyes, Sabrina suddenly felt her nose turn sour and it took some time to find her voice.
“You… don’t blame me?”
“What do I blame you for?”
“The fire, the hotel fire was also his doing, didn’t it occur to you that I actually asked him to do it, and then when he came in I cleared my name?”
“You are not that kind of person. I haven’t known you for a long time but I can see that you really like Matteo, but you kind of put up with him and to be honest if I were you I probably wouldn’t have done any better than you. Sure, you had some things I didn’t like, but that’s because we were on opposite sides of the fence.”
