“Theo died peacefully. It was so quiet that I didn't even realize it. He left with the hope that he would return with a clean soul. However, I don't want to assume that his death was the atonement for all his past sins."
"For me, Theo is a great guy and very nice. He's the most incredible man I've ever known. Besides my father of course.” Mia is back sobbing. His hand trembled, so the glass he was holding fell and broke.
The woman flinched. Mia immediately lowered her body. He intended to pick up the shard in haste, thus making one of his fingers scratched. Mia complained and grimaced slightly, pulling her injured hand.
Meanwhile, Adriano who initially only noticed, now began to intervene. The body of Mia and her back stand on the edge of the bed. He understood why Mia could behave like that. In fact, Adriano was so shocked by everything he had just heard. In disbelief had enveloped her heart, but she knew that Mia could not have made it up.
Adriano then walked towards the drawer to the right of the bed. From there, he took out all sorts of equipment to treat the wound on Mia's hand. Without saying much, the blue-eyed man grabbed Mia's bare hands and treated her immediately. Including gluing plaster to the wound. Adriano did not care even though the woman refused. However, he still forced and did not release Mia's hand “Your finger was injured and bleeding,” Adriano said.
“My palm was once covered in blood far more than this,” Mia replied quietly.
“It's because I didn't see it. If I had witnessed that, then I would never have let it.” Adriano responded to Mia's words. He was done with the wound. The thirty-two-year-old man again raised his gaze, to the now silent and pensive beautiful woman. “What happened after that?”
“Why are you so curious?” Mia's sinister gaze was fixed on the handsome man who had treated her wound.
Meanwhile, Adriano only took a deep breath, then flung it down slowly. Then she smiled a little. “Because I don't think Matteo will die that easily,” the answer is short.
Mia did not answer immediately. The beautiful woman occasionally humped her face. Thousands of regrets faded and piled up into a huge burden. He made himself seem unable to carry the burden alone. Meanwhile, Mia has never spoken to anyone since the incident.
The slow sobs of the widow from Matteo de Luca were again heard. “It's not as easy as I thought. In the past, at the death of my father .. I was able to live my days in peace and did not take too long to heal the deep wounds I felt. Even though the pain is the same. But now it feels much harder for me. It took me about a year to get my mind clear. I was in therapy, taking all sorts of drugs from the doctor until I got bored when I saw it. I don't know what is my motivation to be able to recover, because it feels like I'd better be a crazy person and spend the rest of my life without having to remember anything,” said Mia so softly.
“Then, Mibella? You don't remember him, Mia? As a mother, it is not appropriate that you behave like that,” Adriano scolded. “You should be motivated to move on for the sake of your daughter,”.
“Miabella? My heart ached when I saw the little girl. Everything he has, always reminds me of Matteo. They have the same eye color and also a really similar smile. All the things that exist in Miabella, always make me think of Matteo, and it is very painful,” Mia explained as she continued to sob.
A moment later, Mia fell silent and seemed to think. That he did long enough. I don't know what's bothering him this time. However, not long after he returned a sharp look to Adriano. His face was filled with anger.
“You ... You're alive, and My Theo is dead. Are you the mastermind behind my husband's death?” accuse Mia of suddenly.
Adriano's face changed. The friendly and friendly impression was nowhere to be seen in him. “I won't do such a thing, Mia!” Adriano. “Whatever Matteo has done to me in the past, but I will never attack someone from behind. Especially if the person is unarmed. That's not my way." Adriano did not accept the accusation that Mia made against him.
“Listen to me, Florecita Mia! If you think that I'm the one who killed Matteo, then I make sure you've got it wrong,” Adriano said again with a very deep voice emphasis.
“Then the incident that night on Elba Island, I no longer set foot in Italy. The entire business there was handled by my aide of trust. I can prove it with certainty,” he continued to make Mia speechless, even though he continued to look at the blue-eyed man.
“I can't trust anyone after Theo's departure. Many people want to get rid of him, including you who really intend to take revenge!” rebut Mia cynically.
Meanwhile, Adriano only smiled a faint smile. He realized that Mia did not know the true events. “In the beginning it was like that. I'd love to finish your husband off with my own hands. However, all that revengeful intent had been removed, when I realized that Matteo's death was doomsday for you! I don't want that to happen."
Meanwhile, Mia was silent listening to Adriano's words. His mind was completely muddled at that moment. “I'd better just go from here,” he said as he stood up.
Adriano immediately prevented it. The man held Mia's wrist. Making the brunette earlier undo his intention to step towards the door. Mia turned her head and stared intently at the sturdy man. “Get rid of your hand, Mr. D’Angelo!” Mia's tone sounded so cynical.
“Let me drive,” Adriano said again with a calm and gentle intonation towards Mia.
“No need!” reject Mia firmly. He shook Adriano's hand, which was still holding his wrist.
But Adriano did not want to give up. “Please select. If you really want to go home and let me take you, then I'll unlock that door. However, if you refuse it, then it would mean that you are willing to spend the night here with me."
"Remember, Beautiful Lady. The key to this room is still in my hands. Besides, I won't let you wander around on your own in this chaotic state. Don't forget that you're in Greece, not Italy. You don't know this place very well." There was a satisfied smile on the corner of Adriano's lips. She let Mia fixate to think about her words. Meanwhile, he chose to pass to another room in the room.
Moments later, Adriano returns with a coat that she immediately dresses on Mia's body even without putting it in. The woman who had been glued to where she was standing, immediately turned her head.
But Mia said nothing. He only noticed Adriano who was opening the door of the room, until the sturdy man invited him to come out.
“We should have dinner first,” said Adriano who started driving quietly.
“I'm not hungry,” reply Mia flat.
“I don't either. However, now it is time for dinner.” Adriano stays on her decision to take Mia to dinner together.
“You're the one who ate. I will wait for you in the car,” Mia said coldly. Making Adriano smile little while taking short breaths.
“This is not you, Mia,” Adriano said slowly. “I wonder. Why do the people in Casa de Luca let you go alone in these conditions?” thought.
“They don't know if I went to Greece," replied Mia flatly. His eyes were straight ahead. He seemed not interested at all to look at the handsome man who was driving next to him.
“You mean?” Adriano glanced at Mia with a clueless look. However, Mia did not immediately answer. The beautiful woman still chose to be quiet. Adriano refocused on the car's steering, although he had expected an explanation from Mia.
“I went quietly. Anyway, my treatment period is over. I don't know if I'll be able to go back to Casa de Luca or not. Too many memories there,” explained Mia a moment after she was silent for quite a long time.
“Actually, I miss Miabella very much. However, my heart feels so painful every time I see the child's face,” Mia said as she leaned her head, then turned her face to the side. Tears are back. Moisten the corners of her lips.
Hearing Mia's words, Adriano then stopped the speed of the car he was driving. He looked at the woman who chose to hide her face from him. “If you do not want to return to Casa de Luca, then you should come with me to Monaco,” take the man with confidence.
