Adriano should be proud. The party he had prepared for in such a short period of time, went smoothly. Not in vain he spent some money with fantastic value, to hire a famous wedding organizer in the City of Milan. He was so satisfied with the party that it had now ended and left a deep impression on him.
However, even though the party had been over for the past few hours, the atmosphere in the long deserted Casa de Luca was as uninhabited, still sounded crowded. Daniella's two sons are very active. They can't stay still, which makes the mother so overwhelmed.
Meanwhile, Marco just sat back and chatted with Damiano who was also looking after Miabella. Every now and then, he turned to the wife who was constantly glaring sharply at their two sons. However, the children seemed to have been immune to the threat from the mother, so they did not reveal it at all.
The other with Adriano. She just came out of the bathroom wearing only her sleeping pants. Mia who was busy cleaning the makeup in front of the mirror, immediately lowered her face, because she did not want to see the man in a bare chest and again showed off the tattoo on his back. “What has Miabella slept?” adriano asked while wearing a plain black shirt. He let his usual hair neatly combed back, looking disheveled.
“Bella is with Uncle Damiano in the family room,” Mia replied as she moved from her seat. “Uncle Damiano wants us to stay a few days here. He may feel heavy because he had to part with Miabella,”, the woman said.
“Tak problems. After all, there is important business to do here,” Adriano replied. He then sat at the end of the bed half-bent. The man seemed to be thinking of something. “Mia,” call Adriano slowly. “Do Matteo have a personal lawyer?” tanyakanya.
Mia who was currently arranging pillows, stunned for a moment while looking at the man who had now become her husband. “Setahuku. If it's not wrong, he's Guido Aquillani. However, I don't know him very well,” explained Mia.
Mia paused for a moment before returning to say, “I guess, Uncle Damiano must have been much more knowledgeable about it. During his life, Theo never discussed anything related to the organization or anything with me, unless I asked or it was something I should know."
"Same as it used to be when both his parents were killed by a mistargeted car bomb. Do you know if it was Vincenzo Moriarty's plan working with Antonio? I'm sure you wouldn't know that, would you?” Mia rearranged the pillow for herself and Adriano. Something he used to do, while still with Matteo before going to bed.
Adriano did not answer, because he did not know this. Moreover, for so long he did not meet with the Moriarty brothers. Adriano chose to settle in Monaco. Vincenzo is domiciled in America, and only Silvio remains in Italy. Adriano only heard the news of Silvio's death which was followed by the death of Vincenzo.
The blue-eyed man chose to move from his seat and stepped towards the door. “I will see Miabella first,” she said as she passed from inside the room. He walked into the family room.
Adriano has often visited the Casa de Luca, so he has known almost every part of the magnificent building typical of the plantation house. While continuing to step up and occasionally tidying his hair, Adriano finally arrived at the room he was heading to.
Marco was still talking to Damiano there. Meanwhile, Daniella and her two sons had already entered the room to rest. “Goodnight,” greet Adriano with his style of speech and attitude that always looks calm.
At once, the two men looked over. Damiano welcomed Adriano's presence there with his warm attitude. Meanwhile, Marco just nodded slowly.
Before sitting down and joining the two men, Adriano saw Miabella sleeping on Damiano's lap. The little girl hugged the grandfather quite tightly. The sight made Adriano smile. Naturally, if Damiano felt hard to part with his favorite grandson.
“You can come to Monaco whenever you want, Damiano. If necessary, I'll pick you up so that you can freely meet with Miabella when I take her there." Gentle, said Adriano. Marco was quite impressed.
“I think you're weird, Mr. D'Angelo,” Marco chirped suddenly.
“Any how?” Adriano immediately turned his attention to Matteo's cousin, with a look of astonishment.
“Our last treatment with you was inhumane. However, why do you act like nothing happened between us?” marco asked as he leaned over.
“I don't know either. I am not usually a forgiver." Adriano shrugged both shoulders. “However, a little bit I understand the decision made by Matteo. I would probably do the same, to protect the person I love so much,” the man continued. His eyes looked bright, he pointed at Miabella who was sleeping in Damiano's arms.
A silent atmosphere was present for a moment among the three men. “Ah, stop. I didn't come here to talk about it.” Adriano chose one of the chairs and sat down gallantly there.
“Listen to me. Regardless of your intention to get married, know one thing, son. Marriage is not a game. It should be a means of connecting two hearts that love each other,” Damiano said as he continued to hold the tiny body of Miabella.
“Since my heart has been linked to Mia, Damiano. However, until now his heart was not mine. I never considered this marriage as a means to play around, ” said Adriano look serious.
“I will immediately contact the lawyer of the Family de Luca, to ask how far this case goes,” Adriano replied straightforwardly.
However, Adriano's serious answer actually made Marco laugh softly. “This case is only a road in place since long ago. I've done everything. Including hiring the best private detectives and mobilizing the entire selection of people. However, they all did not get a bright spot at all."
"The crime scene has been laid out and covered so neatly, that there is no evidence we can get there. To rely on the police is free. They must not delve too deeply into the case, or the black organizations that have been running for hundreds of years will be uncovered. It's a waste of our struggle all this time if it happens" said Marco.
That man has changed a lot now. He who used to be at his own will and seemed lazy to be burdened with a responsibility, was able to carry out his duties as the replacement clan head of Matteo.
Adriano nodded. The blue-eyed man could understand that very well. Like him who always keeps the neatness of the black organization, and all the dark business under the guise of casinos and nightclubs that have been licensed. “Yes. It was like eating fruit simalakama,” he said.
“Like the case that killed Matteo's parents first. To the extent that, we have to plan the death of Antonio who is already dead.” The blue-eyed man smiled faintly. His smile then disappeared and immediately turned to Damiano and Marco in turn.
“Can the lawyer of the Family de Luca make a copy about the news of Matteo's death case? I'll try to learn it in more detail again,” pinta Adriano.
“Sure. I'll send you a copy by email. Soon!” firmly Marco.
“Good! From there, I will start my first step,” Adriano said as he rubbed his chin slowly.
A moment later, Miabella seemed to be writhing quietly while delirious. Her adorable face made Adriano couldn't bear to not rub the cheeks.
“Let me move it to bed,” Adriano said. He immediately carried Miabella, just after Damiano nodded in agreement.
“Good. We will continue this conversation tomorrow,” Adriano said again, before passing from the room to Miabella's room.
The beautiful man laid the little girl down slowly. His gaze was always full of tenderness, when looking at the plain and cute face of Miabella. He then kissed the princess. Only then, Adriano covered him. “Buona Notte, Principessa,” whispered softly.
Adriano went out of the room. He closed the door slowly. When he turned around, Adriano was a little surprised to find Mia who turned out to have been standing behind him. “Mia? I thought you were asleep." His heart started to become irregular. Moreover, since Mia was only wearing a thin nightsuit that night.
“A-I can't sleep." Mia looked away, as Adriano stared at her without blinking.
“Did you listen to our conversation in the family room earlier?” ask Adriano to guess.
“Um, it ... bit,” replied Mia nervously. “Come, sleep. Already late,” invite the beautiful woman earlier while stepping quickly into the room, which they will occupy while in Casa de Luca.
Mia again tidied up the bed before lying there. He also fixed the location of the pillow to be worn by Adriano.
Seeing that, Adriano became a little touched. “You don't have to do all this, Mia,” he said slowly.
“It's okay. I never thought of this marriage as a game either. However, I am not sure if I can fall in love more than once,” said Mia slowly while looking down. Sometimes his hands rubbed his cheeks.
“Do not over-exert yourself. Just focus on what's your goal." Undoubtedly the pain and disappointment that Adriano felt at that time. However, as always, he was always harboring in his heart. “Good night, Mia." Adriano took off his shirt and lay down beside the woman. “Get used to seeing me asleep without a shirt,” he said with his eyes closed.
Mia snorted in annoyance, upon seeing the sight presented next to her. Adriano seems to deliberately show off his athletic body to Mia, making the woman have to turn around. Mia slept by turning her back.
