Alessandro Francesco is the handsome son of a poor cobbler. He suffered extreme degradation when he got married to the niece of the richest CEO in Italy . He was treated like trash by her rich family members and he was subjected to extreme degradation because of how poor he was. All of a sudden the CEO dies and Alassandro's name was written in his will, the entire company and all the CEOs properties were willed to him. Now that he was CEO, it was time for payback.
Alessandro Francisco walked into a Jewellery shop. He held a small glass case containing a silver necklace worth $500,000, he knew it would look good on his girlfriend.
"What are you doing? Why are you touching it?" The sales attendant who was a middle aged woman questioned harshly. "You know even if you work till you die, you won't be able to afford that necklace for half the price!" She yelled.
Everyone in the shop started looking at Alessandro like dirt. It's the usual routine, each time he comes here, the sales attendant looks down on him and she always disgraces him because he was poor. He had no other choice because it was the only shop which sold beautiful affordable necklaces. His girlfriend was a big fan of jewellery so he had to buy them for her.
"Go for something cheaper and worth your poor standard please" She said and she walked away from him, she went to attend to other customers.
Italians who resided in Venice were always like that. It was a city for the rich, any poor person residing there gets bullied most of the time. Alessandro was used to everything, he has been enduring criticism and bullying since he was 5 and now that he is 24, it doesn't affect him anymore. His father was a poor cobbler and his mom left him when he was 5 because of how poor his father was, Alessandro grew up with just his father.
Alessandro walked out of the store with a small glass case containing a necklace worth $5000. Well it was his girlfriend's birthday so he had to get her something special. The necklace was worth his 3 months salary but he didn't mind because of how much he loved his girlfriend.
The distance from the jewellery shop to his house wasn't so far so he decided to walk all the way there. He entered the small 2 bedroom flat.
He heard some noises from the small kitchen so he went there. He met his father preparing Italian spaghetti.
"Good evening dad," Alessandro said.
"You're back, how did your day go?" Eduardo Francesco, who was Alessandro's dad, asked.
"Perfect!" Alessandro smiled. He knew if he told his dad about the constant humiliation he faces, his dad would certainly feel bad so
Alessandro never tells him anything about it.
"Let's have some spaghetti then" Eduardo said and he quickly dished some food for Alessandro and himself.
"How was work?" Alessandro asked.
"It's been going well," Eduardo said.
"I won't be home till midnight," Alessandro said. He was going to attend his girlfriend's birthday party.
"You already told me, have fun son" Eduardo said and Alessandro smiled happily.
An hour later he was dressed in a black tux and he was ready for the party. The expensive tux was gifted to him by his girlfriend, Mia Lorenzo.
Mia Lorenzo was the niece of the richest CEO in Italy. Her uncle was Alonzo Lorenzo, there was no one in Italy who didn't know Lorenzo Group.
They had met at the same jewelry shop he had gone to earlier and love sparks erupted right there between them. They fell madly in love with each other and they have been dating for 2 years now. He placed the necklace he bought for Mia in one of the pockets in his tux.
He left the house and he took a cab to the mansion Mia lived in. He got there in a few minutes, he alighted the car and he paid the driver afterwards.
The mansion which stood in front of him screamed luxury, it was extremely grand and it screamed of wealth. Alessandro had to show a red invitation card to the security guards that were positioned in front of the mansion.
He got in and he was led to the grand hall where the party was being held. Alessandro could see Mia wearing a royal blue elegant gown which cascaded the floor as she walked. She looked extremely beautiful.
Mia sighted Alessandro from the crowd easily, among all the guys and men in the crowd, he was by far handsome. She walked up to him.
"Alessandro" Mia said in her sweet voice.
"Happy birthday my queen" Alessandro said with a handsome smile on his face. He gave her the glass case containing the necklace and she gushed on seeing it.
"Thanks babe" Mia smiled and she hugged him. "I want to take you to my mom and dad" Mia said and she took him to them.
"Mom, dad" she called them. They turned and they saw her with Alessandro. This wasn't his first time meeting them.
Antonio Lorenzo and Cecilia Lorenzo both turned to face their daughter. They saw Alessandro with him and they quickly plastered fake smiles on their faces.
"How are you?" Cecila asked. She was adorned with expensive clothing and jewellery from head to toe, everyone was.
"I'm fine, good evening Mr and Mrs Lorenzo" he bowed respectfully and they nodded.
"Mom, dad, we'll be getting married this week" Mia said and their eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets.
"Okay" Cecilia smiled nervously. Mia threatened to elope with Alessandro if they didn't agree so they had no choice.
"Thanks mom, thanks dad" Mia said happily and she left them there.
....
The day of their marriage finally arrived and it was conducted in a Christian church. Alessandro's father along with his best friend, Federico Massimo were present . Mia's parents along with her brother and uncle were also present at the marriage ceremony. Mia's family wasn't happy about their marriage but he just had to pretend like they were.
The marriage ceremony came to an end and the guests left. Alessandro was given the condition that he had to live at Mia's home along with her parents and brother and he agreed.
Alessandro was extremely happy when the ceremony was over, they were officially husband and wife. Alessandro knew life would be filled with nothing but happiness now.
The married couple finally got to the mansion. They stepped inside happily while holding hands. Antonio, Cecila and Mia's brother, Alessandor waited for them in front of the house.
"Mom, you said you had a special room for Alessandro. I'm still sad we can't stay in the same room though" Mia said sadly.
"Yes I do have a special room for Alessandro. His room will be in the servant quarters along with the rest of our servants" Cecilia said and Alessandro's eyes widened.
Just like Cecilia had said, Alessandro began sleeping in the slave quarters. Alessandro thought all he had to do was sleep there but Mia's family shocked him to the core when they told him to start cleaning and doing all other chores in the house. What could he do? He had to oblige. They even stopped him from attending his part-time gigs, so he was a full time house wife or in his case, house husband.
Alessandro took the mob along with a bucket of water and he started mobbing the grand hallways. He continued mobbing and his waist ached insanely.
He suddenly saw a well polished shoe on top of his mob, he narrowed his eyes. He looked up and he saw Mia's brother, Alessandor Lorenzo standing in front of him, he was dressed in an expensive suit.
"You really hand picked the wrong family to mess with, you gold digger. You thought by convincing Mia to marry you, you'll have access to her wealth?" Alessandor chuckled. "You thought wrong, you'll remain a lowly servant for the rest of your days. The thing that actually irks me most about you is that our name sounds almost alike, it irks me" Alessandor said and he walked away leaving Alessandro there, he held the mob tightly and he continued mobbing.
He finished with the hallway and he headed for the servant quarters to at least get some rest.
"Honey bun" Mia called and she ran to him, she held his arm. Alessandro mustered a smile although he ached all over. "Mother wants you to accompany us to go shopping" Mia said and Alessandro had no other choice but to agree.
What Cecilia meant by Alessandro 'accompanying' them was very different from what Alessandro had in mind but he cursed himself for being surprised.
Cecila made him carry all the bags containing the items they bought. Alessandro's hands began throbbing and he fell one of the bags mistakenly.
"How could you be so clumsy? The items in there are far more expensive and valuable than your destiny!" Cecilia flared. Alessandro became extremely embarrassed
"Mom it's okay" Mia said in an attempt to calm her but Cecilia kept glaring at Alessandro venomously.
Life continued that way for Alessandro and he was willing to take everything because of the love he had for Mia.

Lucas's eyes darkened as he inhaled deeply. "Why is it not right for me to kiss you? We are legally married, and you are my wife. We've done this so many times."

I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head. It's bad enough that my husband is having an affair, but what's worse is that the other woman is my own sister, Bella. ************************************************************************************************************************ “I want to get a divorce, Mark,” I repeated myself in case he didn't hear me the first time—even though I knew he'd heard me clearly. He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.
