“But if Fabio Garcia even thinks about laying his dirty finger on my precious grandchild I’ll—“

“Let’s keep it nice today.” Lucio sighed. “Oh, right—my apologies.” Franco frowned.

“Serena, come!” Lita who had been eyeing me since the moment I came downstairs yelled out from a disprobably wanted to see me and lost her patience.“Excuse me.” I said and walked across the room.

“Let me hug her first,” Matteo spoke and pushed Lita aside so he could hug me. “I missed you so much.”in my ears, while I laughed at his words. “I stopped by two days ago.”
