Chloe, a secretary, was ecstatic when she decided to marry her boss, Lorenzo, a member of a Venetian noble house. This interclass marriage seemed to Chloe like something out of a dream. On the day of the wedding, her heart swelling and her eyes watering, she finally told Lorenzo, “I love you.” But when he heard those words, his expression changed completely.

And, filled with despair after the ceremony, what could Chloe do but flee his mansion?
