"I married Mia because I love her!" adriano Sentak. He was offended by Sergei's words, who was now back laughing with satisfaction.
"Aren't you the one who asked me to do that at first? You want to destroy Matteo de Luca until it's completely crushed before it's finished. I'm surprised at you. You should be grateful to those who have made your work easier" said the Russian again.
"You know that I've given up my intention to take revenge on Matteo de Luca!" adriano's tone is rising.
"Yes! I know that!" Sergei replied with no less high. "You decided that after I sold Matteo's weapons to Nenad. I think you must have known the rules of the game, too. All the goods that have entered the city, can not be withdrawn anymore," he explained.
"Then why are they selling it at a much cheaper price?"
"I don't care about that. However, I've heard lately that Nenad made his copy. He sold genuine weapons to certain people at different prices. While circulating widely on its dark site is a mock weapon. However, it turned out to be beyond expectations. Nenad managed to reap a very high profit from selling the fake weapons. However, it turned out to provoke the anger of an arms supplier who controlled American trade and its surroundings. They don't want any rivals" Sergei explained again.
"Why was Matteo de Luca the target?" Adriano.
"The reason is because I asked Nenad to sell the weapons on Matteo's behalf. I don't know, if it will lead those who feel rivaled, to the tragic death of the former Klan de Luca leader," Sergei again grinned, then laughed.
"Isn't that what you want, Adriano? A tragic and painful death for Matteo de Luca. Think carefully. You did all this, taking out one by one Matteo's executor to uncover his death. In fact, indirectly you were the beginning of the bloody tragedy," with a very satisfied feeling, Sergei immediately made Adriano's feelings become uncertain.
"I never told you to do business with a bookie on a dark site!" adamiano's objection was firm. He put aside the feelings that were starting to rage in his heart.
"Then, where should I sell the rest of the weapons in that amount? Moreover, it turns out that Nenad offers a much higher price than my other customers. He knows the quality of the Matteo de Luca-made weapons" Sergei said.
"Does that mean you also know about the group of the Hand of Satan?" search Adriano again.
"No!" the blonde-haired man immediately denied.
"Don't lie to me!" adriano snapped back to bring Sergei's face closer to the cage.
"I didn't know it!" Sergei still denied, even this time with his voice that sounded out loud.
"Then why a team of British police investigators could find evidence of your conversation with Marcus Bolt. They say that you are talking about the Hand of Satan" Adriano unceasingly gleaned information from the Russian man.
"It was just a normal conversation. The hands of Satan are a radical group that often spread terror. Everyone already knows this, though not many know who the real Hand of Satan really is."
"Don't play with my cats!" sergeant Adriano. He again grabbed the button attached to the wall, then pressed it. The iron bars that locked the Camaro were raised higher than before. The savage beasts that were inside, were heard growling again at them.
Sergei understood the bluff. He also spoke back. "Someone told me that the masked Hand of Satan, which has always spread terror, is just a group of village delinquents who are deliberately recruited to make noise" he explained.
"What's the point?"
"The goal is to diversify the issue" Sergei explained again.
"You mean" asked Adriano, not understanding.
"There are some who believe that the Hand of Satan is actually not just a bunch of losers who can only brandish weapons to scare everyone. The real hand of Satan is much more than that. But until now, no one has been able to prove it. Likewise with Marcus Bolt who was curious," said Sergei as he continued to try to escape from the clutches of Adriano.
"Marcus Bolt is dead" Adriano said, right by Sergei's ear, leaving the man silent for a moment.
"Did you finish him off?" point the green-eyed man with a sniffle.
Sergei fell silent again when he heard that. A moment later, Alex's half-brother returned to his voice. "You're really crazy, Adriano! You acted blindly without knowing who you were supposed to kill!"
"I'm just following directions. Just like this time when I got your name in a row that turned out to have something to do with Matteo de Luca's death!"
"You're the first one to be blamed in this case, Adriano!" serkei Sentak. "You started it and gave way to the murderers. If I had not followed your orders to make a sneaky ploy against Matteo, then something like this would definitely not have happened! You're the one responsible, not Thomas or anyone else!" cerca Sergei is non-stop.
Adriano who felt unable to stand the man's words, pressed the button again so that the iron bars were lifted. He then pushed the body of the Russian man forward, so that it entered into the cage.
"Adriano you're more savage than Matteo's killers!" Sergei who was already inside the cage tried to grab the button to have the iron bars covering it re-open. Unfortunately, he was unable to reach the button. Especially because Adriano began to press another button that serves to close the outer iron door coating.
Slowly the iron door closed, accompanied by the evil grin of Adriano. "Bon appetit, Camaro" he said along with Camaro who approached Sergei. He immediately avoided the beast. However, the Camaro was already very hungry by then. He kept on eyeing a pile of fresh meat for his dinner.
Adriano was silent watching as Sergei shouted in fear, as the animal approached. Unheard of the Russian man who is now begging him to immediately get him out of there. “You should not panic,” the grin, “big cats are very good at smelling the scent of fear,” Adriano said in a flat and cold tone.
“You can't do this to me! You are the guilty one! You were the first to have the intention to take revenge!” sergei's sentence came to a halt as Adriano's pet black tiger leaped up and pounced on his neck. Fresh blood splashed the two-layer iron bars, even hitting Adriano's chest. The man only smiled bitterly as he rubbed the bloodstains from his body. He then turned around to leave Sergei who was no longer heard his voice.
After that, Adriano walked to another part of the room and grabbed his black shirt. He got out of the underground bunker. "Tell Thiery to clean the cage" the man told Pierre, who had been standing at the door. To the adjutant, the thing like what happened inside just now was not something strange. When Adriano tells him to take someone to the basement, then it means he will feed the Camaro, his pet. Although the terrible punishment is often used, but Adriano does not always do it to every mistake maker.
Finished saying so to Pierre, Adriano continued his steps towards the floor of the study. Reluctantly wanting to return to Mia's side, he immediately paused after Sergei slapped her with a statement that was indeed the truth. Without a sound, Adriano unlocks automatically in the workspace by using a fingerprint, then goes in there. He walked straight to the painting gallery and sat down right in front of Mia's painting.
Adriano again smiled faintly as she rubbed a picture of Mia's face in school uniform. “You're my savior, honey,” murmured. “I did everything I could to make you happy, but it turns out I was the cause of your grief. I took Matteo from you. If only at that time I had no intention of taking revenge on him, maybe at this time he was still alive and mingling with Miabella,” Adriano mumbled, then laughed to herself.
The blue-eyed man then fell silent, when he remembered the moment where he had met Mia for the first time. It is inconceivable how much guilt he felt for his wife. “Maybe we weren't meant to be together. Maybe I don't deserve to be with you. I don't deserve you, Mia,” Adriano looked down deeply. His breath hunted with clenched hands. He stared at the bloodstains that littered some of the bandages on his body.
All those regrets ended when Adriano shed tears. He got up slowly. The cheerful face of Miabella who was so attached to her. Adriano could feel how much affection the little girl was giving.
“Principessa,” hiss Adriano while rubbing cheeks. He decides to get out of the study and goes to Miabella's room. The little girl was sound asleep in an irregular position.
A smile rose for a moment. The handsome man sat on the edge of the bed and gently rubbed Miabella's head. “Shouldn't have I entered your life in the first place,” he said bitterly before standing up and turning around. Adriano was shocked when it turned out that Mia was already standing behind him.
“Adriano? From anywhere? I waited for you since,” Mia's voice sounded very spoiled, making Adriano laugh softly, then touch the wife's delicate cheeks.
“Mia, you will forever be the love of my life,” Adriano said with a meaningful highlight.
Mia frowned in astonishment at the strange attitude displayed by Adriano. “Are you drunk? Come on, let's go to sleep. Now that it was late,” Mia intended to grab the man's hand and hold him.
Adriano, however, refused. He pulled away the taut fingers, then retreated slowly.
“Sleep first, Mia. There's something I have to do, ” Adriano's body language clearly shows that she's avoiding Mia. It is inappropriate to have that woman come back and take control of her.
“Adriano, wait,” Mia does not give up. She tried to take her husband back. But Adriano avoided it first. She quickly left Miabella's room to return to her study.
“Adriano!” exclaim Mia. His voice echoed along the hallway. Adriano did not care. She chooses to stay away from her true love and hide inside a gallery filled with Mia's paintings.
Adriano locked himself in there for some time. She leaves Mia in confusion and clueless with her change of attitude.
