บท 17: CHAPTER 17

As we arrived at my parent house, my mother walked out of their house to invite us. "Lovely to see you two here," she hugs me and then Aurora. "Raffaele and Aurora come in." My mother invited us. My father came toward us. "Raffaele," my father said. "It's good to see both of you together." He said.

"Father," I said in an annoying voice. "We should be in the dining room."My father added. "Brother? Aurora?" Riccardo suddenly came. "You here too? You fucking asshole." I said."Raffaele language," my mother growled. "I'm here brother. Mum misses me," he said. He a fucking asshole. "Yes, Raffaele. Let him be. Come we should be in the dining room" my father said.

We walked into the dining room and take a seat. Aurora sits beside me. The maid started to serve us food. The food was good. "father, Nana send a greeting to all of you. "I said. My father silenced. He has an issue with Nana in the past. "you have met her, " my mother said. "Yes. "I nodded. "I really want to see her. I miss her," my mother said.

"You should visit her often. She lonely there."I said. "I want to but your father. He...I don't know" my mother said. " I want to but I don't know if she wants to see me," my father said. Nana doesn't like my father. She doesn't like my father being a mafia leader in the past.

"Father, we need to talk in your office later, "I said. Riccardo eyeing me with his glare. "What the fuck are you looking at me?" I said. He was opposite me. "No. I'm just curious." He said and continue to eat his food.

"Don't ever do that again," I said. "do what?" he asked. Fucking asshole. "Killing innocent people," I said. My mum coughed. "No, brother. It's not me" he said. "Who else?" I asked and give him my death glare. "Marvin and his gang," he said. "What the fuck with the gang?" I said.

" Can both of you stop talking about killing and swearing?" my mother said with an angry voice. I continue my food. "He started," Riccardo said. I kick his nut under the table. He winced in pain. "Mum," he said. "Stop both of you. We have a guest here." my father said. Aurora was smiling.

"The food was good, mom," Aurora said. She tries to change our topic. She called my mother her mom since we were younger. "thank you, sweetheart. you so sweet," My mother said. "Brother, are you still with her?" Riccardo asked while looking at Aurora. Aurora looking at me. Long pause between us. "Okay, nevermind," Riccardo clearing his throat. My father really eyeing me.

My father and I walked to his office. He pours whiskey into the glass and gave it to me. "So, this Saturday we are going to Greece there an event for all mafia around the world. Our famiglia have been invited. " I said. "Yeah. It's was held every year. So how was work in Rome?" he said. "we caught a Russian assassin. They about to sabotage our business. So I don't hesitate to kill the assassin." I said. "Good job son, " he said proudly. How the fuck he can be proud?

He was the one who I learned about heartless, merciless and ruthless. He teaches me how to use a gun when I was 12 years old. He told me that a man should not be a weak person.

"I need to go home, father. I have work to do."I said and hugged him . "okay. Bring Aurora to Greece too. She will be your partner when you go to the event. "he said without looking at me. "Okay. "I said.

We walked out of the office and went downstairs. I heard my mother and Aurora laughing each other. "What are you guys laughing for?" my father asked. "we just reminisce the old story. It's was funny back then." My mother said. "we need a family reunion," My father said. "Father, " I said.

"we don't need it, "I added. "we need it, Raffaele. We should have a family dinner on Thursday. Bring Lia too," my mother said. "I will be thinking about that. " I said. I'm busy. "Father. Mother, we need to go home right now. I have to do work," I said.

"okay, take care of my daughter in law. "my mother said. I froze. "Mother."I sighed. Why they want me married so much?" come on Aurora. " I said. "Bye mom and father. Take care. "She said and hugged them.

We walked out of the house and went into the car. I drove the car to my house. "Who was that girl in your house? Olivia?" she asked. What the fuck is she asking for her? "She was my..friend," I said. I should lie to her because she going to tell my information to my father. I know her well. She smiled. I rolled my eyes.

We walked out of the car and walked into the house. I walked upstairs and walked into my office. I took the files on my table. It was new information about Christopher Cooper. I looked into the files and there was a photo. I saw Christopher shake hand with Adrian. They must have a deal about something. I thought. I need to keep my principessa safe.

I have hired an assassin to keep eyes on Christopher.

I called Angelo through the phone. "Come to my office now and bring all our men. We have meetings," I said with a stern.

How dare Christopher tried to take my princess! He and Adrian should be dead.

I will make sure of it. "Yes, Sir. "Angelo said. All my men have come. They standing still. "Here the plan, I want 10 of you to keep eyes on the Russian when we went to the event in Greece on Saturday and you Angelo watch eye's step of Adrian, "I said.

"And 5 of you watch on Olivia. The Russian wants her. So keep eyes on her. She will not be at the event but in the hotel. I will come to see her maybe a few hours."I said.

"keep your weapon along in case someone started using a gun. " I said.

"Yes, Sir." all they said in unison. "You all can go now and work. Keep this house safe." I said. "Yes, Sir, "they said in unison and walked out of my office. I pour whiskey into my glass. I called Valentina through the phone. "Sir. "She said. "I want you to call Olivia to my office now." I said, "okay, Sir." Valentina said. I ended up the call.

I resume my work.
