Audy was speechless looking at Xander's current facial expression. It was clear that her boyfriend was angry with her. Holding Xande's hand, he tried to melt the atmosphere.
"I know you're mad at me. Maybe everyone will tell you I'm a stupid woman. If you don't want to meet him, I won't meet him either. I'm sorry for upsetting you" Audy said earnestly. He felt guilty for making Xander angry like that.
Xander immediately pulled Audy's body and hugged her tightly. "I just don't want you to be wretched. I want from now on we open a new chapter and forget all the memories that have happened in Rome. Even if Aldo returns to his future and wants revenge, my family and I are ready to welcome him. You don't have to think about something that won't necessarily happen. Who knows, after realizing it later Aldo has realized and tried to forget you forever," said Xander while rubbing his lover's back.
"Yes. Hopefully," replied Audy with a sweet smile. "Actually I hope that Brother Leonzio can be present at our wedding later. But it seems like a silly dream. Brother Leonzio must hate me so much right now. Besides I'm not his real sister. Yesterday I made a big deal that made him bother." Audy closed her eyes. Xander's hug felt so warm.
Xander scrunched his forehead. The man recalled the information that his confidant had said. "The news that I have received until this moment Leonzio is still trying to find his biological brother who was once exchanged by you. Leonzio has such a strong disposition. She's not very fit to be your sister. You're too good for her."
"Don't praise me like that. I'm actually a pretty stubborn woman. But now I can lower my ego because I don't want to lose the man I love" Audy replied.
Xander took off his arms and looked at Audrey. The man landed his kiss there. For a while they made love to each other. Let go of all the burdens that once filled their minds.
On the other hand, Quinn rubbed the face of Dimitri who was still asleep. She continued to pray in her heart that your son would have a handsome face like her husband.
Dimitri's hand suddenly catches Quinn's hand and stops him. The man opened his eyes wide and smiled. "Are you thinking about something?"
Quinn shook her head with a smile. The woman immediately slept on her husband's chest with her head tilted to the side. "Well, what really happened? Why is Daddy suddenly there?"
"I was shocked to see Daddy show up to help me. That's how old people are. As long as he can breathe, he will protect his children from harm. That will happen to us later. Once we have a child we will understand" Dimitri replied.
"If Mommy gets to know about this matter, she'll definitely be furious with me. Mommy forbade me from returning to fight because it was very risky for my womb."
Quinn went straight to the doctor after returning from Rome. He wanted to make sure the child in his womb was okay. In fact, the child in Quinn is very strong. When checked, he was fine. Growing healthy like a fetus in general.
"It's not just Mommy. I also have the same thoughts as Mommy . Honey, did you know yesterday I was so worried about your safety and that of our son. The battle we will face is not an ordinary battle because we are like giving up our lives in the enemy's cage.
I felt much more relieved when I heard that you and Sherin had successfully flown out of Rome. Even though I didn't know how to get out of there myself." Dimitri did not want to until yesterday's events repeated again. In the future he will be more careful not to have enemies.
Quinn let out a rough sigh. "What if Daddy doesn't show up we'll split up?"
Dimitri could not answer his wife's question. "The situation there is very difficult. When my foot was shot I couldn't think of any other way but to shoot them with the rest of the bullets I had."
"How did Daddy beat Aldo? Wasn't he dying from gunshot wounds all over his body? And why let him live? In the future he will definitely cause trouble again. I just don't want anything to ruin Xander and Audy's happiness in the future."
Dimitri recalled the incident yesterday when Aldo attempted to attack them. The sniper movement led by Luca was very fast. They managed to make Aldo fall by shooting both legs. When Aldo still forced himself to shoot the sniper again shot the man's hand until the gun in his hand was released.
Not only that, they also immediately went down and hit Aldo and beat the man all out. If only Luca hadn't stopped him, maybe that guy would have died silly.
"Aldo is a very tough guy. Ambitious. His martial skills are also very great. He's also a smart guy. Luckily Daddy Luca is much smarter than Aldo. So we can win this fight" Dimitri replied.
"Did you come there when Nichole was battered? This time Mommy will definitely scold me for making Nichole wretch." Quinn's face looked sad.
"Nichole is a potential mafia leader. He deserves to be trained in that way. Small wounds are common. You don't have to worry about her situation. Nichole will be cured soon. Leonzio is no match. I didn't think she'd get in your way and Audy's headed for the airport either." Dimitri felt awkward yesterday. He had thought that Leonzio would help Aldo at his residence. It was unexpected that the man appeared in the middle of the road.
"Daddy even managed to get Leonzio and his army to retreat." Quinn moved away from Dimitri's body and let out a rough sigh. "If I had known that it was that easy to beat Leonzio, I would have called Daddy and asked Daddy for help. So we don't have to bother like yesterday. You don't have to get shot like this either. Look now what happened to your feet. You can't even carry me anymore" Quinn said, pointing to Dimitri's now bandaged leg.
Dimitri laughed at the statement his wife had just made. "I can still carry you. Where are you going, miss?" tanya Dimitri.
Quinn laughed amusedly at her husband's question before splashing into the man's arms. "I love you so much. Don't ever leave me again."
"Yes. I promise I will never leave you. Forever we will always be together" Dimitri replied solemnly. The man kissed the head of his wife with affection.
Dimitri looked towards the window. "Yesterday we've been fighting hard to help Xander get the woman he loves. Now I don't feel indebted to him anymore for taking you away from him."
"Since then you've never taken me from Xander. It's just a coincidence that you both love me and I prefer you" Quinn replied. He didn't want Dimitri to feel guilty like that.
Dimitri could only smile at Quinn's reply. "Darling, get me some breakfast. My stomach is hungry." The man switched the conversation.
Dimitri glanced at the table before laughing. "I'm sorry. I didn't realize it at all. Now let's go down for breakfast."
...***...
Audie slowly went down the stairs. He notices Xander's residence is very much different from Leonzio's mansion. You could say that the luxury building is only half of Leonzio's Mansion. But somehow Audrey felt comfortable there. It felt a lot different when he was in Leonzio's mansion back then.
Audy saw Viana who was busy arranging flowers. The middle-aged woman was standing not far from the entrance. There were some female servants helping her. Not having any activities today, Audy decides to approach Viana and help the woman. He also had to get closer to his future father-in-law.
"Tante, what's Aunt doing?" audi asked so carefully. He walked up and stood near Viana while watching the flowers ready to be assembled.
"Tante wants to replace this flower with a new one. Aunty has not noticed the flowers in this house for a long time. Yesterday Aunt was too busy with Sherin's wedding preparations. Xander's sister" Viana explained.
Audy nodded slowly. The woman also did not want to be silent while watching. He took out a few flower stalks and helped Viana to string them up.
"Now where's Sherin? Didn't she live in this house after marriage?" Audy wants to know more about the Xander family. Especially that little sister named Sherin.
They had met. But never talked. Sherin looks more closed off and does not want to talk much. Likewise with Audy who felt disinclined. The moment for them to chat also never existed.
"Sherin is on her honeymoon with her husband. Aunty also did not know when they would be coming home," Viana replied with a smile.
Even the middle-aged woman did not know that Sherin and Joa were not on their honeymoon anymore. They have been living in a new house that has been purchased by Joa which is also located in the same city as Viana.
Audy wouldn't say she met Sherin yesterday. The woman looked back at the flower arrangement in front. "Aunty likes roses, huh?" audy asked because all the flowers on the table were red roses.
"Auntie loves all kinds of flowers. But this time Auntie wants this house to be filled with red roses." Viana stepped back a few steps to see the results of her own chain. There was a satisfied smile on his lips. "It looks like Auntie has to photograph this flower for a memento."
"Tante is very talented. This flower arrangement is very nice as it is assembled by professionals," praised Audy.
"You could have. Audy, can Auntie ask for help?"
Audy nods. "Of course I'll help Auntie."
"It won't be difficult and burdensome for you. Aunty believes Xander is now in her study. Please call Xander because Auntie wants to talk to you both. This is about your engagement plan. Last night Xander had discussed that you'd be engaged soon. Auntie wants to get everything ready as soon as possible."
Audrey smiled happily at him. "Where is Xander Aunt's den? I'll call him."
Viana pointed at a passageway. "Get in from there. You'll find a big brown door. There's only one door in there so you won't get lost. Just go inside without knocking on the door. Usually Xander is also in the bathroom to make him not hear if anyone is knocking on the door of his study. He won't scold you if you go in without permission." Viana refocused on her flower arrangement. There were some that he pulled and he reassembled.
"Alright, Aunt. I'll go there first." Audy immediately stepped towards the passageway designated by Viana. While stepping the woman again noticed the furniture in the house. Until not long after that Audy had arrived in front of the brown door which was the entrance to the Xander's study.
Audrey knocked on the door three times. "Xander, it's me. Can I come in?" Even though Viana had said not to knock on the door. Audrey did it anyway. When a few seconds there was no response from within, Audy finally decided to just go inside.
Audy grasped the door handle and pushed the door slowly. His head peered to see the situation inside. But he only saw an empty room. Xander was not in the room.
Audy stepped back to get into the middle of the room. The woman looked at the bathroom door and walked over to check on Xander inside. But Xander wasn't in the bathroom either.
"It looks like Xander isn't in this room. I'd better get out, "inner Audy.
Accidentally Audy saw some photos lying on the table. The woman scrunched her forehead and was interested in seeing the photo even closer. The photos spread across Xander's desk. Audy took one photo and noticed the face of someone who was inside.
"This woman? Wasn't she the woman Xander called Quinn? Why are there so many pictures here? Why would Xander keep a photo of Quinn?"
Audy picked up a small book that was also on the table and opened it. The woman widened her eyes in shock. There is a lot of information about Quinn. This made Audrey very jealous.
"Xander loves Quinn?"
