EPILOGUE
THEY were married three months later, in the cathedral in Arezzio, in keeping with Parenti family tradition.
Giselle wore a white Chanel bridal gown. Saul had insisted on her wearing white. Her great-aunt attended the ceremony, and Giselle saw in the old ladyâs face how happy she was for her.
Natasha, wearing one of her favoured too-short, too-tight dresses, glared at her when she walked back down the aisle on Saulâs arm as his wife, but Giselle didnât care. She was too happy, too filled with love and gratitude to feel anything other than pity for Natasha.
Saul had dealt with Aldoâs debts and discreetly restored the countryâs finances to stability. Once they returned from their honeymoon work was going to start on the island, and the new resort was going to be Giselleâs personal projectâa wedding gift to her from Saul.
Now there was just time for a final few minutes with her great-aunt whilst Saul was with Aldo, before they left on their honeymoon.
âI wish your father was here today to see you so happy, Giselle. He loved you so much.â
âMy father loved me?â She was too shocked to hold back the words. âHow could he when he sent me away?â
âOh, Giselle. He asked me to take you because he felt there were too many sad memories for you in being with him. He wanted you to have a fresh start. He felt so guilty about what had happenedâand over your mother.â
âHe felt guilty? I thought he blamed me.â
âNever.â Her great-aunt shook her head vigorously. âHe blamed himself. He worried that what you had witnessed would scar you, and that being with him would only make that worse. He would have been so proud to see you as you are today. You have married a good man, Giselle, a man who loves you as you deserve to be lovedâand I can see that you love him in the same way. That is good. No one should marry for anything less than the very best love there is.â She paused, and then asked gently, âYou have told Saul everything, I expect?â
Giselle couldnât meet her great-auntâs probing look.
âIâve told him everything he needs to know,â she replied.
Her great-aunt squeezed Giselleâs hand.
âIâm so glad. There should not be secrets between a couple who love one another. Secrets can cause such dreadful damage.â
Saul was coming over. Giselle kissed her great-auntâs cheek, and felt the now familiar quiver of achingly sweet need possess her body as she looked up at her new husband. Surely nothing could spoil her happiness now. Surely now she could finally put the past behind her?
âItâs time for us to leave,â Saul told her.
Nodding her head, Giselle gave him her handâjust as she had already given him her heart.
