A girl of her late stature has entered the Casa de Luca. In accordance with Matteo's orders, the officer standing guard at the gate immediately brought him in and faced the clan chief. By the way, Matteo had finished his breakfast. He and Adriano were talking in the living room. While Mia chose to go back to rest in her room.
Valerie Nikolae. She is a twenty-five year old Russian girl. His appearance is so unique and very eccentric, maybe even extreme. Valerie likes to wear long cargo pants combined with a black tank top. He also tattooed his body, not just one part. Valerie covered almost her entire body with colorful pictures and made it look so different. In addition, the girl with black eyeballs also put a piercing on some parts of her face. One thing is for sure, Valerie's appearance is far from sweet. She is the opposite of Mia let alone Camilla who is sexy.
"Val, you always come on time" Adriano greeted as he stood up and invited Valerie to join him and Matteo. Valerie took off the hat she was wearing. The girl then tidied up the top of her hair that was pitch-black. Occasionally, he plays the ends of the hair with a braid arrangement of two. The girl brushed her lips with the tip of the hair, then raised her gaze to Adriano and Matteo in turn.
"You already know that, Moy brat," Valerie said with her Russian accent that was not too thick. He then approached Matteo and greeted the gray-eyed man. "How are you? You must be Mr. de Luca. Right, right?" say it in the style of a tomboyish girl.
Matteo smiled knot. He returned the girl's handshake. "It's amazing, you recognized me right away," flattered Matteo calmly.
"I can smell the gunpowder in you, sir," Valerie said, interspersed with laughter. She really looked free and unattached to the civilized as a girl. Valerie was so indifferent with all the attitude she showed back then. "A very comfortable place," said the girl again while circulating her gaze at every corner of the living room with several large openings facing directly to the plantation area.
"Wow, that's amazing. It turned out that Mr. de Luca was indeed a landlord," the girl's chirp made Matteo frown while glancing at Adriano who looked to be twitching the base of his nose.
"Take care of your attitude, Val," said Adriano softly, making the tattooed girl again laugh out loud.
"I'm sorry, Moy brat. I'm used to living in Monaco and rarely see a vineyard that wide" Valerie innocently said.
"You always struggle with guns" said Adriano.
"You know me very well" Valerie said. "Weapons are loyal friends. He was more than a lover to me. A man may betray, but a weapon will always obey you and be loyal until you throw it away yourself" the girl continued, turning her gaze to Matteo, who had observed each of the girl's body language closely.
"Very interesting, Miss Nikolaev," Matteo responded to Valerie's remark with a knotty smile.
"You're much more interesting, Mr. de Luca. We both have a lot of tattoos and also love guns. However, I'm sure that you must be far superior to me. I've heard your big name. It feels so good to be able to meet in person, especially if I can work with you as a team," Valerie's black eyeballs stared fixedly at Matteo, and clashed with the man's gray color.
While Adriano just smiled calmly while shaking his head. "Valerie always speaks for what it is, Mr. de Luca. He is not a typical person who likes to hide just to secure his position. You'd love to have a partner like my sister" Adriano chimed in.
"Don't be too much! You have to take responsibility if Mr. de Luca doesn't like me" Valerie often told Adriano. Adriano just laughed in response.
"I'm not sure if Mr. de Luca won't be impressed with you, brother. I just want you to work as well as you can and show me all the potential you have. After all, this can be a free course for you," Adriano said calmly.
"I have to see your performance first, Miss Nikolaev," Matteo said flatly.
Valerie turned her attention to Matteo. His first impression of the head of the Clan de Luca was so special. He had heard of the great name Matteo, as well as all his football in the mission to control the Italian mainland. The man was indeed amazing, and it turned out to be full of charm as well. Valerie did not expect that Matteo de Luca was as handsome and valiant as that. "Can you stop calling me Miss Nikolaev? I don't like anything too formal."
"No problem. I only cherish you as a woman I don't know very well" Matteo said flatly and somewhat coldly, but again made Valerie laugh. I don't know what that girl feels funny about.
Now it was Matteo's turn to laugh softly. "Don't try to tease me, 'cause I'm married. Mr. D'Angelo knew that well" Matteo's lyrics led Adriano to correct his seat immediately.
"Valerie was just joking, Mr. de Luca," Adriano responded to the tattooed girl's teasing of Matteo. While Matteo seemed to catch something else.
“I'm not used to joking around and making friends with people I just met,” Matteo said.
“Excellent,” murmur Valerie. His admiration for Matteo's figure grew. “Looks like I had to force you to accept me as an assistant weapons assembler in your workshop,” the joke again. However, Matteo did not immediately respond to that.
“You have breakfast, Miss Nikolaev?” Matteo cuts off Valerie's conversation and tries to be friendly as the host. He switched the subject for a moment.
“Continues! I haven't eaten anything since last night,” without hesitation, Valerie directly dragged the chair beside Matteo and turned it until the back of the chair faced her. Leisurely, the girl sat down while putting her elbow on the top of the back of the chair.
Adriano cleared his throat to see Valerie's behavior. His blue eyes slightly glared at the two-headed lady. “Ah, forgive me. It has become my habit to sit like this,” Valerie widened her eyes decorated with eye liner quite thick. Realizing her mistake, Valerie immediately turned the chair back to how it was. He sat down normally.
Matteo raised his hand at the few servants who were still standing there. Without a word, the servants seemed to understand Matteo's intentions and immediately prepared tableware for Valerie.
“Various menu dishes are prepared on the table. You can choose it,” Matteo said as he extended his hand.
“Ah, everything looks delicious. Happy eating!” Valerie took a few side dishes and made one on her plate. While Matteo is still amazed by the behavior of a girl who is somewhat strange. Doubt had enveloped his mind, so he had to do something to test the girl who was now eating voraciously.
Matteo pulled out an antique revolver that had been tucked behind his waist. He then placed the gun right in front of Valerie, leaving the girl stunned for a moment. So did Adriano who wondered what the gray-eyed man meant.
“I want you to unload the gun with the bullet, and then you put it back together until it's exactly the same. Do all that as quickly as possible before your food gets cold!” he was flat with sharp eyes.
Valerie laughed dismissively. He immediately put down his spoon, then did as Matteo commanded. In less than two minutes, the girl had already managed to finish everything Matteo had told her. "Isn't there a much tougher task for me, Mr de Luca?" challenge Valerie while snapping her finger. "Originally you know, sir. A gun like that has been my toy since I was eight years old" said the girl arrogantly.
