The Asmara Jugar the Mafia
By the Lake

“May I speak with Ricci for a moment, Francesca? I promise not to be long,” Adriano's pinta.

The beautiful girl with such a tall body seemed to think for a moment, before finally deciding to grant the man's request. “Alright, but five minutes only. The doctor said Ricci's eating and sleeping schedule should not be late and should be very regular. If not, then the healing process will take longer,” Francesca stressed.

“What if long, Francesca? Are you tired already? I'm not asking you to ...”

“Can you stop, Ricci? I'm getting tired of your same words every day!” sergeant Francesca cut his lover's sentence just like that. “Whatever you want to say! My determination is complete to take care of you until you recover. Later if you can use your feet well, then you can kick me out as you please!” he turned around to leave the room, then closed the door hard enough. Francesca was again upset and unable to contain her anger.

Adriano gaped to witness the dispute earlier. For a moment, he stared at the tightly shut door. After that, his attention returned to Coco who looked not too comfortable. An awkward atmosphere was present between the two men, for a while in the room. Both Coco and Adriano were both silent and dissolved in their minds. “Im sorry for Francy's attitude just now, ” Coco said later, with a tone that sounded less palatable. He must have felt uneasy over his dispute with Francesca.

“Why should you apologize? After all, Francesca was not wrong,” Adriano said, “maybe what I'm saying is a little presumptuous, but I think it's best that you don't be too hard on your own lover,” suggestion the blue-eyed man with a very careful tone.

“Francy must know if life does not always match what he wants,” said Coco flat. His eyes glared at the ceiling of the room. He then went back to silence. "I don't want to make him feel trapped by me. He is young, his life is long. He can achieve whatever he wants" he added moments later.

“He has chosen to be a part of your life, Ricci. At least appreciate it a little,” reply Adriano again.

“Not fully," said Coco as she took a slow breath. "Already, Amico. Aren't you here to discuss my personal affairs? Why are we talking about my problem with Francy?” the protest was loud, to the point that Coco forgot that her abdominal muscles would be attracted as she shouted. “Aduh,” finally the curly-haired man grimaced in pain. “Just go you, Adriano! You've ruined my mood!” his nag.

Instead of responding to Coco's annoyance, Adriano just laughed. “Sorry, I didn't mean to laugh at you,” he said with a laugh. “Actually I want to discuss about important matters.”

“Yes, how about Lionel? What do you want to say?” ask Coco ketus.

“Based on information from detective Ignazio, he was in Brescia. The man who tried to kidnap Mia yesterday was Lionel,” Adriano explained.

“Jeez, is that true?” so surprised, Coco tried to lift her body, then ended with a groan of pain.

“Don't move much first, Ricci,” prevent Adriano while fixing Coco's pillow, then help her get back to her original position. “You just calm down. On my way home from Milan, I contacted Benigno to deploy his men around Casa de Luca. Moreover, Dante and Serafino are also still on guard here,” he continued.

“I called Valerie to come here. Although his life can never be silent in one place, but he is also reliable. My foster sister was quite good at shooting long distances. I....” Adriano's sentence came to a halt as Francesca walked back into the room carrying a large pitcher of water.

“It's been over five minutes, Adriano. Ricci should take his medicine immediately,” said Francesca, flat and cold.

“Alright, we will continue this conversation tomorrow. Hopefully soon to improve, Ricci,” Adriano patted Coco's arm slowly, then smiled at Francesca. The man hurried to leave Coco's room without looking back.

From Coco's room, Adriano intends to return to Miabella's room. However, Dante first stopped his steps with a tense face. “Bos,” sweep.

“What's up?” ask Adriano.

“Serafino found a drone with the same type as the drone that used to enter the Casa de Luca,” replied Dante.

“In front of the first gate, Boss,” Dante directs his hand as a gesture for Adriano to follow him. With steady and quick steps, Adriano half ran towards the Casa de Luca outer gate.

So did Dante who walked beside him.

In the area in question, Serafino had been waiting with Dante's dogs. There are also several gatekeepers and Casa de Luca guards who are in charge of guarding their respective posts.

“Where is the drone?” adriano asked half-gasping.

“This, sir,” one of Casa de Luca's bodyguards came forward and handed a small object similar to that helicopter to Adriano. “There's paper stuck there, sir. Looks like it was a message addressed to you,” reported the bodyguard.

Adriano flipped through the drone earlier. It was clear if it was a drone of the exact same type as the drone he had found some time ago. He then pulled a paper that allegedly contained a message for him. The paper was stuck to the body of the drone. Adriano then read the message written there.

Aspetto al lago. Solo! Prometto di non barare (Wait for you at the lake. By yourself! I promise I won't cheat)

Adriano squeezed the small paper, then thought for a moment while shaking his waist. Sometimes she puts her hair back. “Can you get me a Matteo jeep?” tell the man a few moments later to one of the guards.

“Good, sir,” the designated bodyguard immediately carried out Adriano's orders and rushed towards the garage. Before long, Matteo's jeep drove and approached him. The bodyguards jumped down from the vehicle and approached Adriano. “It's ready, Sir,” report.

“Grazie,” Adriano nodded, then patted the bodyguard's arm.

“Do we need to come, Boss?” tawar Serafino's.

“No need! Your job here is to look after everyone who is in the building and the de Luca plantation area, without exception. Is understandable?” adamiano's tone of voice. His blue eyes flashed and stared intently at the people around him.

“Good, Boss,” Dante and Serafino nodded in unison.

“Please wait for reinforcements to arrive soon. Benigno and dozens of his executioners are coming in less than half an hour. That's according to my calculations,” Adriano said again before walking into the jeep whose engine was already on. His hand turned the steering wheel, so that the vehicle speeded up and immediately came out of the gate. The car then turns towards the lake where Adriano and Coco once combed the existence of a mysterious drone controller, symbolizing the Hand of Satan some time ago.

Less than ten minutes drive, Adriano deflects the wheel and lowers the speed. He then stopped right on the rocky road by the lake. The jeep lights had highlighted a tall man who stood facing the lake.

Full of vigilance, Adriano opened the car door and went down slowly while reaching for the gun that was always tucked behind his waist. Without a sound, he approached the figure while pointing the muzzle of the gun at the head of the figure who now turned to him.

The figure smiled widely. He was not at all daunted, as Adriano pointed a gun at him in less than five meters. “How are you, Mr D’Angelo?” greet the man who is none other than Lionel. He raised both hands up.

“Tak need to mince words. Tell me what you want?” sahut Adriano's. That calm face turned violent in just a few seconds.

“Let down your gun first, Mr. D'Angelo," asked Lionel, "after that, then we can have a quiet conversation,” he said again without showing the slightest tense look.
