René trembled with the fury he felt. He couldn't believe that his son was capable of mistreating and humiliating a woman the way he did with Nicole. He thought he had raised him properly, but sadly, he realized he had been mistaken.

"Regarding mistreating a woman, have you seen that behavior in me? I don't understand what you were thinking."

"Well, it seems Nicole has already told you. It took her long enough to do so."

"It wasn't Nicole. It was her parents. You know I have a long-standing friendship with Noah, and Gío Rossano is a man with a lot of power and connections that can be a thorn in your side if they set their minds to it."

"What happened between Nicole and me is our business alone. No one else should interfere in our relationship. If I did things that way, there was a reason."

"Enough! Nothing justifies your behavior. You forget about forcing her to come back to you and, above all, taking her son away from her."
