A long sigh slid from Adriano's lips. His guess did not miss, but he also never thought that Sergei knew Mark Bolton. That means the Russian man must know who Thomas Bolton and Andreja Borislav are. It is not impossible if Sergei is also aware of the other party, who was involved and must be held responsible in the case of the death of Matteo de Luca.
"Why should I go to America, Croatia and England if I can get information from people who are close to me?" adriano mutters after he ends a video call with detective Ranieri. The man then moved from his seat and left the room. He then contacted the loyal aide. "Pierre, where are you?" tanyakanya.
"I'm still at the club, sir," the forty-year-old man replied. That day, Adriano did assign him to monitor some improvements to the facilities being worked on, at one of his clubs located in the city of Monte Carlo.
"alright. You go on," replied Adriano who immediately hung up his phone. The blue-eyed man walked into Miabella's room. He was sure that Mia would be there too. Again, the assumption is true. Mia and Miabella were heard chatting. They laugh cheerfully. Unknowingly, Adriano who was still standing in front of the door of the princess room continued to smile widely. A happiness that makes the life of a beautiful man is more perfect.
Slowly Adriano knocked on the door and opened it. The mother and son were sitting together on the bed, staring at the phone screen. They both seem to be taking pictures. "What's exciting girls?" adriano asked as he strode quietly to the bed.
"Daddy Zio, come here. Come take a picture with me and mom," asked Miabella who looked bright when she saw Adriano's presence there. The little girl got out of bed, then pulled her hand until she sat down with them. "Look, Daddy Zio. You look so funny" Miabella laughed cheerfully as she looked at Adriano's face on the phone screen with adorable stickers added. The thirty-two-year-old man laughed. He had never done such a ridiculous thing before. However, Adriano began to like him. He even shifted Mia's position, and was engrossed in taking pictures with Miabella.
The excitement only stopped when a call came to Adriano's phone number. Forcibly, Tigre Nerro stepped down from the bed and stood by a glass window facing the garden next to the mansion. "Pierre?" sapanya calm.
"I'm back, sir. Do you need my help?" asked Pierre who was standing in front of the entrance to Adriano's study. "Now I'm in front of your workspace" he said again.
"I'm in Miabella's room. You just wait there" said Adriano, ending his conversation. He went back to Mia and Miabella. "I'm sorry, Principessa. I still have a job. Later we continue again," he said while peeping the head of the princess who looked scowled. He was disappointed that Adriano was leaving his room.
"Where are you going, Adriano?" asked Mia who looked curious.
"There's a little business, Mia. I promise it won't be long" the blue-eyed man replied calmly.
However, Adriano's calm demeanor is inversely proportional to Mia. The woman immediately got out of bed, then approached her husband. "Why do I always worry whenever you say you have a little business. Please don't worry me anymore like yesterday" Mia asked. His lentic fingers cupped the blue-eyed man's firm jaw in a friendly manner.
"Hey, calm down" Adriano smiled calmly as she kissed Mia's hand still on her face. "You don't have to worry, because I'll always be fine. Your prayers and the cheerful smile of Miabella are a very wonderful shield to me. These two things are far stronger than even the most hardened steel," in and so meaningful the words Adriano spoke to Mia, make the beautiful woman do not hesitate to kiss him even if only for a few moments.
"I'll see Pierre first" said Adriano. His attention then turned to Miabella who was still engrossed with the phone screen. "Bella, take good care of your mother" she said.
Miabella turned her head for a moment, then smiled sweetly. "Yes, Daddy Zio. I'll take care of mom, but I'll buy you a dress like Princess Jasmine's" replied the little girl, showing her the phone screen.
"Master," said the adjutant who is still faithful single. He followed Adriano who immediately entered after replying to his greeting with a nod. "Is there anything important?" Pierre looked very curious. He stood by the desk, facing the master who was already sitting on his great chair.
"Call Sergei Redomir and tell him to come here this afternoon" Adriano said.
"Suddenly," Pierre felt something strange.
Adriano threw his back on the back of the chair. He looked straight at the aide. "I should have met him in person, but my condition was not possible. Anyway, Mia ...." Adriano scratched his forehead for a moment. "The point is to tell Sergei to come here" said the chairman again.
"Well," there was no reason for Pierre to deny the master's order. As a loyal adjutant, he would do whatever Adriano did for him.
While the atmosphere in Casa de Luca at that time was not as quiet as usual. The sound of children's cheerful laughter, was heard decorating the magnificent building which now seemed to have lost its awesomeness. From the time Matteo stepped down and moved the center of power to Palermo, the Casa de Luca became just a regular building among a sea of vineyards.
"Damiano, eat first" Coco came in with a tray of food for the old man who was lying sick.
"Thank you, son. I'm glad you're home. At least, I stopped to talk to the mute wall, "welcome Damiano who had been asleep all day because of the influence of drugs.
"I'm sorry if I can't take good care of you" Coco said, sitting on the edge of the bed. The usual face look cheerful with all the typical silly attitude, now looks moody and sour. "Do I need to tell Mia about your condition?"
"No, no," stop Damiano. "I don't want to make him anxious. After all, he hasn't called here in days. Normally, Miabella would do a video call with me, " said the middle-aged man with the hair and beard who had been completely bleached.
"Mia was busy taking care of Adriano. There were a lot of things that happened during our time in England yesterday" Coco said. He paused for a moment before returning to talk. "You know Damiano? Adriano risked his life to uncover Matteo's death. I feel guilty for being so unkind to her" Coco said.
"Already, Son. There are many people who have also been in positions like you. I think it's only natural that you don't feel welcome, with the presence of the man who seems to replace Matteo. For me, Adriano D'Angelo is a blessing from God. Look at how she looks after and treats Mia and Miabella. Her attitude towards Miabella was remarkable, as if that child was her own biological daughter. At least, if I die, then I can leave quietly because someone is protecting my granddaughter well."
"Come, Damiano. Please don't talk about death. Matteo's one departure has left me millions in pain. I'm not ready to lose anymore. You're like a father. I love you so much, "powerless to hold back the sadness, Coco buried her face on Damiano's lap which was then in a sitting position leaning back.
