บท 510: The Touch

Gastone was in disbelief at what Lucia had said. He stepped closer, his eyes filled with concern. "Lucia, you don't have to face this alone. If you stay, it could be dangerous. Giselle is not just some woman from your past; she's powerful, and she's got connections here. Who knows what she's planning?" 

Lucia's expression softened slightly as she looked at Gastone. "You don't understand, Gastone. I know what she's planning," she replied. 

"Lucia…" Gastone hesitated, searching for the right words. "What are you planning to do?" 

Lucia smiled sadly. She looked up toward the stars twinkling against the dark sky. "I don't know yet. But I can't keep hiding. If Giselle is here, it means something bigger is at play. She wouldn't have come unless she had a reason. I need to find out what that is."
