Adriano's car and his small family, Damiano, have arrived in the spacious courtyard of Casa de Luca. Coco and Gianna stood up to greet them. While on his way to Casa de Luca, Emiliano had contacted his youngest daughter to get ready, as Adriano wanted to talk to her. Emiliano himself was in another vehicle and got off first.
Adriano emerged from the car he was riding in. The man walked cautiously, as he held onto Miabella who was already sound asleep. The little girl looked very tired.
“How, Amico? When will we leave?” Coco, who was standing on the porch, walked over and grabbed Adriano's shoulder.
“Later tonight we will discuss about it. Now I want to talk about something first with Gianna,” Adriano replied as she continued walking towards Miabella's room. Deftly, Mia opened the door of her daughter's room wide, so that Adriano could easily enter and immediately lay Miabella on the bed.
Slowly and very carefully, Adriano covered the tiny body of her beloved daughter, before she got up and came out of the room. His intention was to meet Gianna. “Rest first, Honey,” he also had time to kiss Mia's forehead, which immediately replied a gentle smile from the woman.
Adriano's steps look so dashing. A moment later, he stopped in the living room, where Gianna and Emiliano were waiting for his presence. They were sitting on a circular shaped sofa in brick red. “What do you want to talk to me about?” the blonde-haired girl looked tense. Sometimes she pulls her hair back.
“Begini,” Adriano then sat down near Gianna. “How's your mom? How long haven't you been home?” tanyakanya.
“I haven't come home since I came out looking for Padre with you. Why indeed?” Gianna asked back.
“Are you ready not to go back to your house there?” Adriano stared fixedly at his half-brother.
“Ya!” replied Gianna steady.
“You also want to find a job, right?” ask Adriano again.
“Of course. I still have the pride not to constantly hitchhike here,” Gianna's words are so firm and without any hesitation at all.
“Good. I like that,” Adriano said making Gianna smile proudly. “So like this, I have a job for you. I hope you don't reject it. You used to say that you were an accounting graduate, right?”
“Yes. That's right, Adriano,” Gianna's beautiful face looks radiant, when knowing that Adriano will help her.
“Come with me to Rome. I'll assign you to manage the finances at my club. I entrust all the business of it to you. For a place to stay, you can occupy my unused apartment there,” Adriano said.
“Really?” the girl couldn't believe it. He glanced at his father for a moment, then turned his attention back to Adriano. “Thank you very much, Adriano,” Gianna said with a smile that looked very sincere. Countless how happy the twenty-four-year-old girl felt. “Finally I was able to break free from Madre. No one else can manage my steps anymore,” he said as he poured into the arms of the stepbrother.
Adriano was fixated to get such treatment from Gianna. However, in the end he returned the girl's embrace warmly. “I'll take you tomorrow. So, you better get ready,” said the blue-eyed man as he let go of his embrace.
“Good. After all, my clothes had been brought by Padre here a few days ago, so I did not need to return home to pack,” Gianna said enthusiastically.
“Learn to live independently, Son. I want you to be as strong as Adriano, even if you are a girl,” Emiliano said.
“Sure, Padre,” said Gianna with a wide smile that never separated from her beautiful face.

After dinner, Adriano continues the conversation with Coco in the study. One thing they are seriously discussing is the planned departure to Zlatibor, Serbia. “I have managed to get an address that is allegedly as the residence of Nenad Ljudevit. According to the information I received, he was in the Black Tower. We will go there the day after, because tomorrow I have to go to Rome first,” explained Adriano.
“Are you sure that the address you got was correct and trustworthy?” Coco sounded hesitant.
“What are you using so he wants to tell his master's address?” ask Coco again.
“You don't need to know about it, Ricci. Trust me,” Adriano again showed off her charming smile.
“Alright, I just according,” Coco according in the end.
“Do not forget, get ready from now on. After from Rome, we will fly directly to Serbia,” stressed Adriano again.
“Gosh, what supplement do you take that has that much endurance, Amico?” Coco clucked in disbelief.
“What's the reason?” Adriano scrunched his forehead.
“Do you never feel tired?” asked the curly-haired man still with a look of astonishment. “One thought Mia, she must have ..”
“What's certainty?”
“Yes, he definitely should take a supplement as well,” Coco chirped with a big laugh. A joke that Adriano did not want to respond to at all. While Coco looked very happy over the ledge.
“At least my wish was always well channeled,” Adriano replied after feeling disturbed because of the sound of laughter Coco who seemed so satisfied.
Instantly, the brown-eyed man fell silent. “Oh, don't remind me of that,” he lamented. However, a moment later Coco appeared to be smiling. “If we are leaving the day after, then that means I still have one day to say goodbye first to Francy,” he said.
“What if we leave together?” tawar Adriano's.
“No,” reject Coco immediately, “I prefer to travel by motor,” he said later.
“Alright,” reply Adriano. “I will collect other information. I think it's enough for tonight,” Adriano closed as he moved from his seat.
“I will also find out about the location of the Black Tower,” Coco said quite loudly, because Adriano was already near the exit.
Adriano turned his head while replying with a nod. After which, he immediately passed towards the room he occupied with Mia. There, the wife was waiting for his arrival while sitting on the edge of the bed. The woman's body language indicates that she is being alarmed.
“Why else, Darling?” Adriano immediately approached and hugged Mia while rubbing her back.
“Don't go, Adriano. Please,” pinta Mia shriek. Her pretty face was still stuck to Adriano's chest.
“Tomorrow I'll go to Rome to see the state of the club and take Gianna. Do you want to come, honey?” bargain Adriano soft.
“You know that that's not what I mean,” sighs Mia slowly.
“You mean Serbia?” Adriano raised one eyebrow.
Mia looked up and stared straight into the blue eyeballs that always washed her away. The brown-eyed beautiful woman nodded slowly.
“Mia,” his wife's face looks so adorable that Adriano can't bear to not let go of that sultry lip for a while.
“Thank you for worrying so much about me, honey. I'm so flattered. However, this is only a business affair,” Adriano said as he stroked Mia's delicate cheeks, then again linked his lips with a friendly.
