TWO DIFFERENT PLACES
Milan, Italy
Dante leaned his back staring intently at the middle-aged woman who was standing haughty before him.
Alex invited her to sit down but Antoinette refused. "Tell me where my daughter is now! Or all of you I report to the police have kidnapped my daughter Laura", ketus Antoinette posed her threat to Dante and Alex.
Dante smiled cynically hearing that. "It turns out you missed the news. Aren't you keeping up with the news that Laura reported Dominic Escobar yesterday. You know what that means? It means your freedom is soon threatened as well because of your involvement in Escobar's rape of Laura".
"I need to emphasize here. I'll give my lover Laura Mancini full support whether you like it or not it has no effect on our relationship".
Antoinette was silent at Dante's words. He knew who Dante was, but he did not expect Laura to be in a relationship with him. I don't know since when. Antoinette forbids Laura from having a relationship using her feelings. He can connect with rich people who can support his career to remain in existence for a long time. However, only Luca was granted the blessing of Antoinette to marry her daughter.
"No mother can sell her own daughter for her selfishness. From now on I won't let you hurt my lover. Or do you deal with me, MADAM!", said Dante, drawing his sharp gaze at Antoinette, who was silent to Dante's words.
"After the problems that surround Laura are over, we will get married without your blessing. Laura's father's blessing is all that matters. After this I'll make sure you can never again disrupt Laura's life. I will never allow your vile deeds to Laura to last forever at your will. All this time I knew Laura Mancini because she was engaged to my best friend Luca Barzini Corleone. But I only recently got to know Laura when I saved her while running away from Dominic Escobar's captive in appalling condition. I know Laura as a very nice girl. It didn't take long for me to love her" Dante said.
"You can't have Laura completely. She's my daughter. I gave birth to her!"
"Then you use it as a money dredger for you? Satisfying your wishes? I'm not gonna let that happen again. Step over my corpse first, if you still think like that!", exclaimed Dante firmly.

Florence, Italy
The plane carrying Felipe and his girlfriend Valeria has landed at Amerigo Vespucci Peretola Airport, Florence Airport.
"Felipe, we'd better go straight to my parents. I want to surprise them" Valeria clasped Felipe's hand tightly as the two were in a car traveling at moderate speed.
"OKAY. I never imagined I would have a lover who came from this artist city. I used to have a painting teacher from this city who taught me techniques in painting. Until I can channel my painting skills well".
"Darling, we'll be at my parents' house soon. It's the house" said Valeria enthusiastically pointed to a two-story, cream-colored building that looks beautiful because many of its phantom-colored bougainvillea plants grow in front of the building. Valeria did not comment on Felipe's remarks a moment ago.
The two bright blue netra Felipe looked to the side of the house stood a gallery. Felipe read the very artistic sign. "Valeria Art", murmured Felipe furrowed his brows reading the name sign.
"That's my dad's gallery. My father was a painting artist. He named his gallery by my name. Very coincidentally, my lover is a hobby of painting as well" Valeria said with a smile.
"That's the name we're fooling around. Let's meet your parents soon. I can't wait to meet your painter father. As great as the painting" said Felipe sarcas.
A few moments later..
"Darling, you're going back to Florence? How was your film shot?", said a middle-aged woman who approached Valeria and Felipe with a smile on her face.
A moment later his attention turned to the handsome male figure next to Valeria. "Who's this handsome guy, Valeria darling?"
"This is Felipe, my lover ma. We'd better talk inside"
"Are you really, baby? mom was happy to hear that. Your lover is very handsome" said Cicilia looking at Felipe with a warm smile. And kindly let Felipe into their home.
"Is there a papa, ma?"
"As usual, your papa's clock is in his gallery" replied Cicilia hugging her beloved daughter into the house.
Felipe immediately circulated his eyes on the beautiful paintings that adorned the walls of the house's guest room. Inevitably Felipe took a closer look at the paintings. Either coincidentally or not it turns out Valeria's father's painting also flowed impressionism as well. Just like Felipe. Paintings with natural scenery in the countryside, as well as paintings of the ocean with rolling waves are very beautiful. The two Felipe netra do not want to be separated from the paintings of high artistic value.
The two blue netra Felipe stared at the small writing below the painting. The look on her face changed instantly and turned to look fixedly at Valeria who was talking to her mother.
Next minute...
"Have my beloved daughter returned to this house?"
"Papaa.", said Valeria up and squandered her father's hug. The middle-aged man who looked still handsome also tightly hugged Valeria's body and kissed the tip of her head.
Felipe turned his body, looking at the sight. Both of his eyes stared fixedly at the man who was tightly hugging Valeria's body.
"Uncle Lucien...?"
