All Chapters of A Night With The Past: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

PresentFrom October to November 2016The night of the charity dinner had arrived, to my utter bewilderment, it was in an elegant place, an amazing place that was everything we had always been taught as glamorous, elegant and luxurious. He had no idea if he had paid for that with the money he managed to steal from the company or it was something he did at an earlier time. We didn't know anything about his background before he got his hands on this city's underworld again.So, when my brother came up to me in a tuxedo, I said:"I have a feeling it's going to be a different night..."And so it was, when we entered the luxurious museum, the doors were closed and the guests, who numbered about a hundred, were led to tables at which we sat. Enzo and I were alone, the stalls of Diana, Giulia and her future husband were empty. However, the rest of the tables were full, and at one in particular I saw one of the best friends of the love of my life in a stunning blue dress. It was then, when I

PresentNovember 2016I came home with a searing pain in my neck.I had a suspicion that it wasn't going to end there, that it was going to be a major problem."We must move..."That was the first thing I said to Alice when we arrived and she and Lilly looked at me as if the screws had come off."Why would anything that happened today make me move somewhere else when I'm so comfortable?" He asked and crossed his arms."If you didn't see the videos, or the interaction... Mr. A is Luciano Basciano's older brother, he's not going to release me just for the sake of it, and if he ran away, I'm running a risk that I can't...Al, the guy with the translations, the beam of technology and the only one who didn't see me as a piece of meat when I went to train for the FBI, knocked on the door and when I saw him, I knew that whatever it was, I had to take care of him right away."We need to talk," he said, and I nodded.My friends looked at him with surprise and then at me, then, with all the cal

PresentDecember 1016My world had withstood so many things, too many, but to see Emma in the arms of my greatest enemy felt like the dumbest betrayal of all. It was so intense that my brother just left me at home to deal with my thoughts."Don't judge her now when you didn't before, give her the benefit of the doubt and have the decency not to be a big jerk in the process," he said and I shook my head.I didn't understand what he meant until that morning when I found them in bed together and went crazy. After Emma said those painful words, she went straight to the stairs and I tried to follow her, but Enzo stopped me by taking my arm."It's not a good time to talk to her, not now...""You don't tell me what to do, you and she betrayed me, you...""You really are an!" He blurted out angrily. That woman loves you so much that she is unable to let you go, she has too many layers, but you push and push, doubt and believe the worst of her because your greatest enemy brainwashed you."I kn

PresentDecember 2016I had woken up to the news that my mother was dead.I couldn't stand myself, so much so that we had to go to an inn and that night, I had to go for a walk or I would go completely crazy.It's already dark and I decided to go for a walk to clear my mind.A well-known whistle made me spin and my face lit up when I saw my grandfather, calling me so I ran hard and gave him a big hug."You're beautiful! I didn't believe the fool Luc you were here. If I don't see you, I think you're an apparition.” I laughed wistfully at the compliment. “I found out that your mother died yesterday... I'm really sorry.”"You don't have to," I said and shook my head."It must be hard for you to lose your mother, and well— What happened to your father in prison. I know they weren't the best with you, but life hit them very hard since you left my girl and they more than paid for their bad decisions.”The information threw me off."What do you mean by my father there?" I asked with genuine

PresentDecember 2016Our mouths kept pace with our heartbeats, and the impulses of meaning made me react aggressively.I felt jelly in his arms and everything came out of me like a volcano, came out to hit me like a stampede and I started crying. As if sensing what disturbed me, he embraced me with a tenderness that left me without arguments."I'm here for you, honey.” He kissed my forehead with intoxicating devotion. “I won't leave, I'll stay as long as you want to.” He said in such a sweet tone of voice."Why did it all happen that way?" I asked to nothing, contemptuously, before exhaling wearily."I'd like to know the answer," he replied appreciatively, in the same weary tone I'd used. “I can only say that we are stronger now, and that we owe each other a goodbye. You... You're my heart, Emma. If in the end you don't want to be with me, you have the right to choose.”"Would you do that for me?" I asked fearfully."I'd do anything for you," he said with such conviction in his words
