The Asmara Jugar the Mafia
Moriarty's Blood

“Come on, answer my question, Mother,” Adriano walked up to Claudia who instantly moved back slowly. However, before the middle-aged woman moved further, Adriano grabbed the stepmother's wrist and grabbed her tightly, leaving Claudia unable to move anymore. “Since long ago, Ilario has always been your favorite child, even more than Agustine and Gianna who are the only girls in this house. Is that why you're not willing to open your mouth?” Adriano tilted his head while observing the suspicious expression of the middle-aged woman before him.

“I ...." Claudia looked down deeply. It was clear that his attitude was very nervous and frightened at that time. He realized that now he was not dealing with a child who could not fight when he was tortured.

“What is this, Madre? I don't understand at all,” the confused Gianna, patting and rubbing her mother's shoulder.

“Alright, let me explain,” Adriano walked back, then grabbed the big package and rocked it. He then brought the package he was holding close to his nose, then inhaled it slowly. A moment later, the look on his face changed. His eyes also seemed narrowed.

“This is high quality heroin. I estimate it weighs three kilograms. What a fantastic amount. If Padre had this thing, of course he wouldn't have to bother looking for money to pay the debt. All of which he will be able to pay off easily. Unfortunately, Padre had no such desire. He wants to pay off his debt in a good way. But ...” Adriano put the parcel back down and moved forward to approach Augustine.

His half-brother was slightly shorter than Adriano. He doesn't have the guts of Gianna either. The proof, Agustine immediately looked away, not daring to return the gaze of the blue-eyed man.

“However, Mrs Claudia Bocelli certainly does not agree with the will of her husband. For him, luxury and comfortable life is the main thing although it must be obtained in a way that is not good,” Adriano's cynical smile is addressed to his stepmother. A moment later, Adriano walked in front of Claudia.

“What does that mean, Adriano? Please do not convoluted,” urged Gianna who is getting impatient.

“I've opened all the files and emails on Padre's computer. I also know that all the investor funds have been returned by Ilario. According to my guess, he replaced everything by using the money from the sale of heroin," explained Adriano, making Gianna immediately wide-eyed to listen to the explanation of his half-brother. His eyes seemed to be in disbelief.

“Here lies the problem. It is very likely that Ilario cheated. Either he takes money that is not part of it, or he can steal and take more heroin than he has agreed,” Adriano continued.

“The number of people from the black world, do not like traitors. They also hunt Ilario. However, since Ilario was a favorite child, it was better for Padrelah to be handed over. For Mrs Claudia Bocelli, her husband was useless because he could not make much money anymore. That's right, Mommy?” adriano's intonation sounded flat, but frightening. Agustine had to gulp repeatedly.

The innocent Gianna is getting slacker. He knows nothing of the intrigue going on around him. That's why, the blonde girl was very panicked, when her father was taken by unknown people. While his mother and brothers just silent and impressed let. Undesperate, Gianna seeks help.

Adriano was silent for a while. He still stared at the stepmother intently. A moment later, the blue-eyed man turned his gaze to Gianna who still looked very surprised. "Where do you know if I'm in Casa de Luca?" adriano asked with narrowed eyes.

“A-I was confused to see the attitude of madre and Agustine. While I also do not have the courage to face them alone. I don't know, 'cause all I had in mind was you, and then I went into Padre's study to find your phone number. After I found it, I called the number. But a man named Pierre answered him. I introduced myself, mentioned our names and also our relationship. Only then did I ask where you were. Pierre said that you were in Casa de Luca. Without a second thought, I immediately followed you there,” Gianna said in a trembling voice.

“You are so outrageous, Claudia! I wouldn't even call you mother. Do you remember all your treatment of me? It's amazing that you did the same thing to my father,” hissed Adriano held back his anger.

“I have to, because I don't want to live! The owners of the capital threatened to confiscate this house. While you're not willing to sell Alessandro's house or give us financial support. It's all your fault!” claudia pointedly and uncontrollably.

However, Adriano ignored the harsh accusations made against him. He grabs Gianna's wrist, then leads the girl and takes her down. “You should help me pick up padre,” he whispered. “Based on the license plate you mentioned earlier, the car carrying the padre is listed as one of the expedition company's inventory cars. Detective Ignazio has given me his office address" the dark-haired man said.

“You can't take Gianna anywhere! She is my daughter!” claudia shouted loudly. The woman was still standing at her place earlier. “You too, Agustine! Do somethin! Don't just shut up!" he then moved near his eldest son. Claudia pushed the man's body to stop Adriano immediately. However, Agustine remained unmoved while looking down. He did not have the courage to fight against the chairman of the largest and also powerful organization in the European Continent.

“Not madre," rejected Gianna before Agustine could move. "Whatever Emiliano's circumstances may be, he's still my real father. As a child, then I will save her!” strict girl ity. He glanced at Claudia, then turned around and continued to follow Adriano's steps.

"Don't be stupid, Gianna! You don't know what's gonna happen in there!" claudia exclaimed again with all the anger held in her because Gianna did not rub it at all. The girl prefers to go with Adriano.

Slowly Claudia's body collapsed. He's sitting on the floor. After all, the woman was still worried about her daughter.

Adriano and Gianna left the house. They rushed towards the place mentioned by detective Ranieri. "Don't worry, Gianna. You'll be safe with me" Adriano said, remaining calm. He continued to drive his car at a moderate speed. Adriano knew that the men who kidnapped Emiliano would not dare to do anything.

"I'm so worried about our father" Gianna said in a trembling voice. "She is old and also getting weaker," the girl continued, bowing. Adriano did not respond to his remarks. He stayed focused on the steering.

"You know what, Adriano? When you left the house, he lost you so much. Almost every night, he told me that you inherited Moriarty's blood. However, unfortunately because the name can not be given to you," said Gianna made Adriano increasingly silent to hear it.
