It had been almost twenty minutes since Stellina had been silent in front of Eston's room. As she stood, Stellina was still thinking about what she needed to say during the discussion with Eston. Stellina's mind suddenly went blank, even though she had prepared herself before standing here.

"Why does it feel like I can't say anything?" asked Stellina, muttering to herself. "I had imagined the direction of the conversation with Eston, but now..."

Stellina immediately grimaced as she scratched her temple briefly. The conversation she had prepared moments ago became abstract in her head.

"Calm down, Stellina. You must remember the conversation you prepared earlier," Stellina said once again to herself.

There was honestly nothing to worry about. But Stellina's position was that of a fake version of Vellina. There were many things about Vellina that Stellina did not know. If suddenly in the middle of a conversation, Eston said something she did not understand and led to suspicion, it could

    Stellina didn't stop feeling uneasy.Since yesterday, Arianna had been suffering from a fever. Stellina had repeatedly checked Arianna's forehead to see how she was doing. But it turned out that one day after yesterday, Arianna's condition had not improved. Stellina's heart sank as she saw Arianna lying on the bed, asleep.Stellina finished putting a compress on Arianna's forehead. After that, she straightened up and watched Arianna with a sad look on her face."Arianna, why are you so sick all of a sudden?" muttered Stellina while letting out a nervous breath at the end of her sentence.Arianna of course did not answer.Not wanting to disturb Arianna, Stellina finally turned around and walked out of the room. Stellina closed the door slowly, then stepped slowly into the dining room not far away.At the dining table, Diego had just sat down and picked up the cutlery. Eston was absent today as he had to attend to his work. Stellina followed to the dining table, sat down opposite Diego

    The car Fabian was driving stopped in an area of deserted shophouses. There were hardly any people around this place.For a moment, Fabian looked around with a doubtful look on his face. For some reason, his gut feeling was suddenly uncomfortable. Suddenly, the bad possibility of being in a deserted and non-elite area like this flashed in Fabian's brain."Finally arrived. I really miss this place. It feels like so many years since I visited," Stellina said from the back row of the passenger seat.Fabian didn't answer yet. His eyes squinted behind his sunglasses as he took in the surroundings. Although the shophouses here were not actually slum shophouses, Fabian's instincts still felt something unpleasant.Because there was only silence and Fabian did not answer, Stellina stopped her movement. The look on Stellina's face showed astonishment at Fabian who did not give any answer.Stellina frowned and sat down to watch Fabian from the small rearview mirror above. Fabian seemed to be wat

    The sound of gunfire repeatedly echoed in this area. Stellina and Fabian, who had already struggled to get out of the car, walked quietly but quickly away from the scene. The car Fabian was driving was tilted and almost overturned.While running with a bent body, Fabian tried to spread his coat behind Stellina's back. Bullets from the guns of the men dressed in black flew all around.Stellina was really trembling with fear as she ran with the sound of those gunshots. Now she and Fabian didn't know which direction to go. Their minds were instantly blown.DOR!DOR!"ARGH!" Fabian's body immediately jerked when a bullet managed to hit his left arm.Stellina widened her eyes in surprise. She almost screamed when she saw Fabian suddenly almost lose his balance. She just wanted to know how Fabian was doing, but Fabian's hand that was holding a suit - and also hit by a bullet - kept pushing Stellina's back forward.Until finally Stellina and Fabian could find the turn of a small alley. When

    Diego really didn't expect to hear about Fabian and Stellina's accident.Even more surprising was the news that the Nuvoletti Clan had attacked their car and caused a serious accident. Diego didn't need to question it anymore, it was certain that the Nuvoletti Clan's reason for attacking was because they saw Fabian, who belonged to the Pavnozzi Clan, around their territory.Diego's steps moved deftly down the hallway to the VVIP hospitalization room. Diego was the one who told Ranzo to take Fabian to the VVIP class, because he didn't want any Nuvoletti Clan or enemy clan that might be undercover.Diego was already imagining the bad possibilities of how Fabian was doing. But on the other hand, Diego also questioned how the accident between Fabian and Stellina could be explained. In Ranzo's phone call a few moments ago, Diego hadn't gotten an explanation about it.Diego soon arrived in front of the VVIP hospitalization room. Without waiting long, Diego opened the door without knocking.

    "I'm sorry that I couldn't contain my emotions earlier."When the tension between Diego and Stellina had completely subsided, Diego lowered his ego to ease Stellina's irritation.From the sofa, Stellina looked up at Diego who was walking towards her. Diego's eyes showed regret, and Stellina instantly felt unable to stay angry with Diego for long.Stellina took a deep breath, then let it out. "Yes, I understand your reasoning, Diego. If Fabian and I hadn't been helped by Ranzo, we would have been captured by the Nuvoletti Clan.""Not just captured, Stellina. You could have been killed on the spot." Diego emphasized his words with firmness. He was already sitting next to Stellina."But, you really don't have a single wound on your body, do you?" Diego asked once again. Now he raised one of Stellina's hands, intending to take a closer and more detailed look, but his hand was jerked away.Stellina was startled by Diego's sudden touch. Diego was momentarily dumbfounded, only to realize tha

    "The operation has been successfully performed, Mr. Diego. After this, the patient will undergo a recovery process."Upon hearing the words of the nurse, who was handling the bullet removal operation in Fabian's hand, Diego breathed a sigh of relief. His body seemed to relax to the point of bending down to hold his knees.Diego paused to neutralize his heart, which had been in a state of turmoil. After a few seconds, his body straightened up and gave a smile to the nurse in front of him.Diego nodded his head. "Thank you, I appreciate your efforts. Can I accompany the patient?"The nurse just smiled back at him. "Yes, the patient can be visited, but the patient is not conscious yet. When the patient regains consciousness, please call the doctor to recheck his condition.""Yes, nurse. Thank you again." Diego bowed his head briefly in thanks."Then, I'll leave."Without answering the nurse's words, Diego simply walked sideways. Letting the nurse out of Fabian's hospitalization room.Aft

    Today, Fabian and Stellina's condition had started to improve. In Fabian's room, Diego stood with Stellina and the doctor who examined Fabian's condition."The patient's condition has improved, so there is no need to extend the hospitalization period. All medicines have been prepared and can be purchased at the hospital pharmacy upon payment." The doctor explained to Diego after checking Fabian's condition for the umpteenth time. Just to make sure Fabian could really go home.Diego and Stellina breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't just Stellina's condition that had improved after fainting yesterday. Now Fabian could even sit up and his body was no longer as weak as it had been three days in a row yesterday.Fabian, who was holding one arm wrapped in a cast, then smiled a little. So did Stellina. Meanwhile, Diego folded his hands in front of his chest and looked at Fabian rather annoyed."Did you hear? You've finally recovered. After this, you have to be more careful," Diego said, warn

    "Stellina, what are you doing there?"Diego's voice jolted the attention of Stellina who had been watching the scene outside the window of the mansion for the past hour. Stellina was even more surprised to see Diego coming with two cups in each hand. As he got closer, the distinctive aroma of tea greeted Stellina's sense of smell."Why are you here all of a sudden?" asked Stellina, her gaze fixed on the two gels.Diego stopped in his tracks beside Stellina and handed her one of the gels. "For you. I made these personally," he said as he held out his hand.Stellina looked at the glass Diego handed her in surprise. Diego almost never made tea for Stellina. In fact, she thought he might be doing some other work right now."Why did you make this for me?" asked Stellina, showing her suspicion openly. "I don't think there's any reason for you to suddenly be so nice to me."Diego's thin smile that signaled sincerity faded in an instant. Now the look of annoyance on his face was immediately a

    Matteo's whole body was suddenly stiff and nervous after hearing the stranger's words. Matteo watched Diego's back and the stranger beside him walk away. In his mind, Matteo questioned who the stranger was who suddenly said the painting was a fake."What did he say?" asked Eston, interrupting Matteo's thoughts.Matteo immediately smiled stiffly at Eston. Of course he could not let Eston be swayed by the stranger's words."Sir, he may have just been joking," Matteo said, trying to reassure Eston.Eston shifted his gaze from looking at Diego and the stranger's backs, to looking at Matteo. The look of doubt on his face instantly faded and he returned to arching a proud smile."That's right. Why should we think about it? It is also possible that Diego took the man away because he wanted to reprimand him," Eston replied, nodding his head twice.Hearing that suddenly made Matteo breathe a sigh of relief. Because Matteo would not have b

    A large ship carrying a container of goods arrived at the port of destination.The atmosphere in the harbor was even more chaotic as Eston's bodyguards, who had been waiting all along, rushed to the ship. Others were making preparations for heavy equipment to unload the large container from the ship.After the special stairs appeared and stretched out as a path, Matteo appeared with three bodyguards. They descended the stairs, with the three bodyguards occasionally keeping Matteo's body balanced."Don't forget to make sure the container doesn't fall and damage the goods inside!" Matteo warned the crew and some of Eston's bodyguards.Once he was fully disembarked, grounded in the harbor, Matteo walked a little as he watched the heavy equipment begin to transport the container. Matteo was a little worried as he watched this scene."If any of the goods are damaged, I will cut your pay!" Matteo threatened with a louder and more emphatic call than before.There was no resistance or rebutta

    Stellina knew what she had to do. During her time as Eston's daughter, she had never made a mistake. Diego had been very neat in teaching her many things. This time, nothing could be missed.Diego also prepared himself for Eston's arrival. With the presence of Stellina, who was now disguised as Vellina, there was no suspicion on Eston's part. At least until now, everything was going the way he wanted it to. Diego plans to give Eston one of the souvenirs they bought in Rome."I want to give my papa-in-law some of the souvenirs we bought in Rome, can you help me choose them?" Diego asked, looking at his watch. He didn't have much time as Eston would be landing in Vomero soon."Of course, I will choose the best for Mr. Eston," Stellina replied with a sweet smile."Don't forget, he's your father. Don't make any mistakes that make him suspicious of all this." Diego reiterated Stellina's role. This time the beautiful girl didn't answer, she just looked

    Finally, the moment Stellina had been waiting for came. Just now she had met her family and released her longing, now she had to part with her family again. The look in Laura's eyes that harbored sadness was still in Stellina's eyes. Even though the girl repeatedly told her that everything would be fine.They arrived at Napoly airport three hours before departure. As always, the airport was bustling with people and business. There was still a little time to prepare a few things.Stellina smiled gently at Arianna who had fallen asleep in the car, but when they arrived at the airport, her eyes were perfectly round. It was as if the little girl had been fully recharged to run here and there through the vast airport."Watch your step, sweetie, don't get in the way of people who want to pass.""Mama, the airport is spacious and very cool. I like it, are we going to wait here for a long time?" asked Arianna, holding her hair which occasionally covered her face."We'll just wait for the plan

Arianna's favorite thing to do is to buy cotton candy, a snack sold around the area.They happily strolled through the ancient buildings.

Although annoying, Patty had the sincerity to approach a child and Arianna could also feel that Patty was like a pleasant sister.Meanwhile, Diego and Stellina sat together in the courtyard of the Colosseum. They were chatting casually. Diego was no longer angry with Stellina because she had ignored the rules they had agreed upon.

The little girl screamed when she saw Stellina and Diego in the hospital lobby."Papa... mama, I'm done playing with Camilla. I want to come with you.""All right, darling. We'll have lunch now. Mama was just about to call Camilla and ask her to bring you to join us."Finally, after Arianna joined them, they all left the hospital to go to a nearby restaurant. Camilla couldn't come along as she had to go back to the hospital to look after Enrico and keep Laura company.They immediately headed to the restaurant. When they arrived at the restaurant, Diego, Patty, Stellina and Arianna sat at one table, while Febian and Pedro were at a separate table not far from them.Patrizia felt like a breath of fresh air, now she had to ask about Stel

    Arianna was confused at being separated from Stelina. The little girl kept calling her mama's name."Mama... where are you? Why did you leave Arianna here alone? Arianna is scared, Mama."With an upset face Arianna continued to look for Stellina among the hospital visitors. One by one, she searched the faces that passed by, but all of them were not Stellina.The little girl was already in the lobby at the same time as someone pushed open the hospital's glass doors. Arianna's face was instantly filled with anxiety."Mama... where are you?" she whispered softly. The girl looked at the people who were visiting the hospital.While Arianna was confused about finding Stellina, the little girl walked from one corridor to another, until she accidentally collided with a girl."Ouch." Arianna groaned as she fell on the floor."Hey, are you sick?" greeted the girl who turned out to be Patrizia.

    Escorted by Fabian, Diego, Stellina and Arianna exited the airport. As per Arianna's wishes, they had a quick bite to eat at a restaurant inside the airport's food court area while buying ice cream for the little girl."Everything is ready, sir." Fabian reported about the hotel he had booked the men to stay at. Diego deliberately did not want to stay at his mansion because Stellina's family was there. At the moment, the hotel was the perfect choice for the night."Let's go straight to the hotel, I'm tired and want to rest soon." Diego stepped off his feet in a hurry. On the airplane, he could barely close his eyes."Yes, sir." Fabian immediately put the luggage into the car that he had prepared. Wherever he was, Fabian always prepared everything carefully and in detail. That's why Diego trusted him so much.After traveling for about thirty minutes, they arrived at the magnificent hotel in Rome. A beautiful view greeted them from the twentieth floor.
