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
Diego sighed after helping Eston unload the suitcases from the trunk of the car.At the airport car stop, Eston, Matteo, and Stellina gathered around waiting for Fabian, Eston's personal driver, Diego, Eston's confidant, and Matteo's confidant to push the suitcases."Be careful with that suitcase!" exclaimed Eston, giving orders to his confidant.While they-including Eston-were busy with their own activities, Stellina accidentally turned to Matteo. It turned out that Matteo had been watching her for some time. Stellina was surprised when Matteo winked at her."What are you doing?" Stellina said to Matteo without making a sound.Fortunately, Stellina and Matteo were standing one step behind Eston. Their interaction went unnoticed.Receiving a glare from Stellina, Matteo smiled contentedly. For some reason Matteo could not stop flirting with Stellina despite the rejection reaction."Do not miss me," Matteo whispered very softly. His voice was barely audible because it was drowned out by
