Neglected by the billionaire she married, she finally hears Niccolo say that she was never meant for his world.
In their own house she finds him holding another woman over a dinner made from her grandmother's recipe, and she leaves her wedding ring on the counter before filing for divorce.
She goes back to cooking, the work his family never allowed, and opens a restaurant in her grandmother's name with her own money and her own hands.
Niccolo returns without lawyers or his family's fortune, paying full price every night like a stranger, learning her mother's recipes, and fixing the roof he never noticed while swearing his mother staged that betrayal.
She tells herself she is done with him, yet the man she first loved keeps showing through.
His mother is still circling, the whispers have followed her to Florence, and trusting him again could cost her the self she rebuilt.
