Let Me Go My Mafia Husband (Aria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 456

Chapter 456 Ready For Punishment
Ryder's POV.

Kate approached me with a determined expression on her face. "Ryder, we need to talk," she said firmly.

"Kate, I'm not in the mood..." I attempted to dismiss her, but she was relentless.

"Please, Ryder, just talk to me once," she pleaded, her voice filled with desperation.

I let out a sigh, realizing she wasn't going to give up. "Okay, I'm listening," I relented and turned to face her.

"Not here," she glanced over her shoulder, her eyes scanning the surroundings. "There are too many people around. If someone overhears us, it will become news," she said, her eyes filled with innocence, accompanied by a subtle pout.

I nodded, understanding the need for privacy. "Fine, but I don't have much time. Please make it quick," I told her directly.

She gestured for me to follow her, and we made our way towards an empty room. As we entered, I waited for her to begin.

"Do you remember when we were together? Everything felt so perfect," she said, batting her long eyelashes, trying to evoke a sense of nostalgia.

I couldn't help but let out a bitter chuckle. "But I made it clear from day one that I didn't want a relationship. It was you who wanted to give it a try," I reminded her, the frustration evident in my voice.

But suddenly, she reached out and grabbed my neck, attempting to pull me closer.

"What are you doing, Kate? You said you wanted to talk. I should have known you wouldn't change your old tactics," I said firmly, swiftly removing her hands from my neck and tossing them away with a forceful jerk.

"Please, try to understand what we have. I miss you. I miss the intimacy we shared. I can't live without you...," she began to ramble, causing my anger to boil. I had already moved on from her, and I couldn't comprehend why she was still fixated on me.

"Stop with your nonsensical talk. I've made it clear that I don't want to continue our relationship. Why can't you accept that it's over?" I stated, my voice filled with frustration, as I turned to leave the room.

But before I could make my exit, she suddenly threw herself at me, wrapping her arms around me in a tight embrace.

The sound of the door opening caught my attention, and I swiftly pulled away from her, turning to see Bella standing there, a look of shock on her face. Realizing the gravity of the situation, my instinct kicked in, and I desperately tried to stop Bella from witnessing any more of this uncomfortable encounter. However, she swiftly spun on her heels and began to run away, clearly overwhelmed by what she had just witnessed.

I called out her name, desperately hoping she would stop. I hurriedly caught her arm, gently turning her to face me. She tried to pull away,

insisting that I should go back to Kat if that's what I wanted. I wanted to

explain, to make her understand that she had misunderstood the situation. But she was not willing to listen.

"I should go," she said, her voice filled with pain as she turned away.
