All those waiting there were finally able to breathe a little bit when the doctor who treated Matteo had come out of the operating room. The tall and somewhat thin man appeared to take off the surgical mask covering part of his face, as Mia moved towards him with a face full of anxious expectation. “How is my husband?” mia asked with her tone filled with unrest.
“Operation runs smoothly. After this, your husband will be observed first. Then we move it to the inpatient room. Excuse me,” after giving good news about the surgery that has been undertaken by Matteo, the doctor passed leaving Mia and all, who can now breathe with relief. Without hesitation, Mia immediately hugged Damiano in full.
“I told you, Mia. Theo's gonna be fine. He is a strong man,” Damiano said as he stroked Mia's hair gently. “You know? At the age of seven, Matteo fell from a horse to a broken leg. But he did not complain one bit. He also does not feel kapok and is afraid to go back riding even until now,” said the man again with a smile.
“Now, Theo is much more mature. He's getting stronger, especially because you're next to him, Mia,” comfort Damiano again with a speech that sounds so soothing. He is a very wise man. However, unfortunately until now Damiano has not been able to dampen the hard character of Matteo, who often has difficulty controlling his anger.
Francesca and Daniella smiled happily after hearing from the doctor. Coco stood near the two girls. He wanted to hug Francesca, but the girl preferred to hug Daniella. Finally Coco hugged Adriano who was standing without removing her gaze from Mia's beautiful face.
Adriano was a little surprised. He also did not know Coco at all, but the handsome man eventually returned Coco's embrace warmly, patting the brown-haired man on the back as a sign of familiarity.

After exiting the observation room, Matteo has now been moved to the inpatient room. A room located in the hospital pavilion, with its complete and luxurious facilities. The gray-eyed man had only opened his eyes a moment ago, after he had fallen asleep for quite a while.
Matteo seemed to be shaking off a small smile, as he felt a delicate hand clutching his fingers tightly. “Mia ...” the sigh slowly. Only that name was on his mind when he was already completely conscious.
“I'm here, Theo,” reply Mia with half whisper. He brought his face closer to Matteo's ear and gently kissed the husband's temple. “How are you doing, Darling?” whispered Mia again. His gaze was filled with love towards the man.
Matteo moved his eyeball to the side, where Mia's face was. He has not been able to move his body and neck normally, after the surgery he had undergone a few hours ago. The man returned to his small smile. “So I dreamed about you,” Matteo said slowly and deeply. He looks so weak and helpless. Only her pair of gray eyes could still move and seemed to be a gesture to Mia.
“Oh, yes? I hope it's not a nightmare,” said Mia softly. He gently stroked Matteo's hair, which seemed a little disheveled, tidying it for a moment using his lentic fingers while kissing the husband's forehead lovingly. “You still look very handsome despite being lying helplessly like this,” Goda Mia made Matteo's smile seem a little wider than before.
“Whose word am I helpless? Soon enough, I will again lift your body on my shoulders,” replied Matteo, though with a tone of speech that sounded so lethargic, and unlike the usual Matteo.
“Because of that, you need to get well soon. I want you to recover soon and we can get back to Brescia soon. I will make arancini for you,” said Mia with a dot of novelty in the corner of her eye. While Matteo continues to hold tightly to the fingers. He was afraid to let go.
"I love that food, Mia," said Matteo slowly. He then fell silent too.
“Do not go from me,” Matteo said again. “Don't leave me, Mia. I really need you,” he continued slowly. However, Matteo still forced himself to talk.
“Why can you think like that, Theo?” Mia kissed Matteo's hand which was holding her tightly. Matteo did not immediately answer. The man stared fixedly at the wife with the look of his eyes that looked cute.
Moments later, Matteo again said, ”You have seen my dark side, Mia. That's what Matteo de Luca looks like when he's overcome with anger. I can bulldoze one mafia kingpin by myself. Just like I did in Palermo. I have taken the life of my own friend who has betrayed ...” Matteo did not have time to continue his words, as suddenly Mia kissed him gently. Matteo was helpless at that moment. He just fell silent and closed his eyes, trying to absorb the sweet touch of love that the wife gave him.
“Then, about Camilla ...”
“We discuss that later!” mia interrupted as she passed to open the door. His gentle tone instantly changed upon hearing the name.
Looked at Coco with her signature smile. He stood behind the door, wearing only his white shirt. Without saying much, Mia immediately invited her husband's thick friend to enter. “I'll buy food for a while,” part. Without waiting for an answer from Matteo, Mia immediately went out and closed the door tightly.
While Daniella and Francesca return to the castle to bring Mia a change of clothes, because until then, Mia still wears her shabby dress with some blood spots there.
Mia actually felt uncomfortable to come out, but her stomach felt hungry. However, just as he was about to leave from outside Matteo's nursery, Adriano suddenly came to him. The man offered the bread and other food to Mia. “You must not have had breakfast, right, Mrs de Luca?”
Mia stunned. Doubtful, he received the food that Adriano offered him. However, rather than her having to come out with her appearance that would definitely look awkward to everyone, Mia finally received the kindness and attention of the beautiful man. He sat in a chair, while Adriano stood up against the wall.
A moment later, the man decided to sit next to Mia by putting some distance between the two. Adriano sat down and leaned back. He placed his right leg over his left thigh. His attitude looked so handsome at the time.
“Thank you for the bread,” said Mia slowly as she glanced at the man next to her.
“No need to hesitate, Mrs de Luca. Just tell me if you need anything. I will help you with pleasure,” said Adriano with a style of speech that is not much different from Matteo. However, the man looks a little more friendly because he has quite shady eyes. Adriano kept watching Mia who was eating the bread she gave.
“Why don't you rest, Lady de Luca? You look so tired. Didn't you sleep all night?”
Mia was stunned to hear the question posed by Adriano. He did feel more attention from the stranger, and it made him very uncomfortable. However, Mia was a friendly person despite being somewhat shy. The queen of the Clan de Luca only gave a small smile. He did not dare to look at the man directly and preferred to finish his meal.
