The charm of Mr. De Luca

Stolen Heart's

By noon, Mia was already allowed to go home. They returned to Adriano's mansion to take all the luggage. Others were waiting on the helicopter runway.

 

“How are you doing, Mia?” asked Coco who was still inside the mansion. It looked pretty serious at the time.

 

“I've been much better, Ricci. Thank you,” replied Mia gently with her gentle smile. “Are you looking for Theo? He was in the bathroom,” said Mia again who was waiting outside the room.

 

“Not really. I just want to see the state of my sister-in-law. Thank goodness if you feel okay,” said Coco with a joke and made Mia laugh softly. However, the laughter faded as Adriano came to them. Mia's face instantly turned pale and she looked a little agitated. Coco could see that clearly. Therefore, he also kept a close eye on his second body language.

 

“Mistress de Luca, glad to see you've improved,” greet Adriano with a friendly smile. Mia did not answer. He just nodded slowly.

 

“These are books you might like. Just take it to the Casa de Luca, consider it a gift for your visit and Mr de Luca here,” said Adriano again while offering three books that last night Mia just left in her study. With trembling hands, Mia received the books. While Coco's eyes were still sharply paying attention to the attitude of the two people before her.

 

Not long after, Matteo appeared there. Mia immediately approached the man, and stood slightly behind him. He seemed to be seeking protection. “Theo, why are you so long?” Mia sounds so upset.

 

“I was only in the bathroom for ten minutes, Honey,” Matteo said. His gaze was then fixed on the three books in Mia's hands. “What book is it, How to mia?” tanyakanya.

 

“I heard Mrs de Luca loved to read about the history of ancient roman mythology. I happen to have some, so I give it as a gift and a memento of the arrival of the two of you here. I hope, Mr. de Luca is not jealous because of that,” interrupted Adriano at length. He looked quite calm and was already able to control himself.

 

“Oh, of course not. As long as the book did not contain any words of love or dreadful seduction for my wife,” Matteo replied casually and made Adriano laugh crisply.

 

“I am alive and not recorded in history, Mr. de Luca. Maybe never, because I'm nobody,” Adriano replied. Sometimes he turned his gaze to Mia who did not join him in the least. It continues to be a concern for Coco and of course makes her feel strange. All this time, Mia had always been friendly towards anyone.

 

“Thank you for coming here. Valerie is on her way, and she will be soon to Italy if you are ready,” Adriano explained again.

 

“Alright, then we excuse you,” Matteo greets Adriano once again. And so is Coco.

Not so with Mia. He would rather step back than shake with Adriano.

“Come, Theo,” Mia pulled on Matteo's arm and took him for a walk first, towards the helicopter runway that was on the roof of the mansion.

Coco did not immediately follow the couple. He stood straight beside Adriano who was staring at Mia's back.

“Do you not want to deliver them all the way to the helipad, Mr D’Angelo?” ask Coco flat. He glanced at the sturdy man next to him.

“Ah, yes. Of course!” half-jolted, Adriano rushed after Matteo who had entered the elevator towards the top floor.

Before Adriano could take a step forward, Coco first gripped the handsome man's arm and pulled him. “Don't think I'm stupid, Mr. D’Angelo! What you did to Mia!” his wrath glared sharply.

Adriano was aghast to the point that he had to hold his breath. The man did not think that Matteo's best friend was someone who was very observant and intelligent, behind his relaxed appearance. “I don't know what you mean, Mr. Ricci,” pretext Adriano.

“I also saw the attitude of Mia who was always frightened when you approached! As much as possible he always tries to avoid you, and I'm sure it's not a coincidence!” he said with the same tone of speech.

Adriano did not answer immediately. His blue eyes seemed to light up, staring unblinkingly at Coco. With a slow but vigorous movement, Adriano let go of Coco's clutches. He then patted the chest of the curly-haired man. Adriano also fixed the collar before speaking, “I appreciate you as a close friend of Mr. de Luca, but not everything I did had to tell you. After all, this is my mansion. It's good for you as a guest to keep the attitude," said Adriano trying to stay calm.

“What you did it has to do with Mia, asshole!” umpat Coco as she throws her fists at Adriano.

However, Adriano was much more alert by catching Coco's fist and holding her. The two men were staring at each other at that moment.

“What do you guys do?” the voice of a girl made the two men who were struggling instantly retreat and move away from each other for a few steps.

“Ricci, everyone is waiting for you. Why are you still here?” nagel Francesca while pulling her lover's hand. After that he nodded to Adriano.

“I'll take you to the runway,” Adriano glanced at Coco for a moment, then followed Francesca's steps.

Coco's jaw has hardened. His emotions intensified when Adriano smirked at him.

The figure beside Coco was apparently not to be underestimated. Although Adriano looks so calm, but the power is so great he can feel when Adriano gripped his fist, even until now Coco's palm still feels pain due to Adriano's actions.

“Jeez, are you lost, Ricci?” ledek Marco was ready with his avionics headset and sat dashingly in the back seat of the helicopter, shortly after Coco got to the runway.

“Suddenly I couldn't stand going to the toilet,” Coco grinned funnyly, hiding her anger towards Adriano.

“Allah!” tell Matteo who's getting ready to pilot his helicopter. He then nodded at Adriano for his farewell.

Adriano retreated to a safe distance before the helicopter's propeller spun rapidly. His pair of eyes remained wary of looking at the black-colored helicopter until it flew invisible at high altitude. The smile he had been showing off to Matteo, slowly fading away, changed into an emotionless cold look.

Meanwhile, a helicopter piloted by Matteo arrived at the Casa de Luca runway. His entourage arrived earlier than Zucca and the other men who chose to travel overland. Mia, who had a tense face, now looks able to breathe a sigh of relief. The main purpose is the bedroom. Too much of a burden on the mind, making the woman feel so tired. Without waiting for Matteo who was still neutralizing the steering lever, Mia opened the helicopter door beside him just like that, then jumped down.

Everyone who was there, was instantly aghast and shrieked in shock. But Mia doesn't care. He walked quickly with half his head down because the position of the propeller is still moving.

Mia also paid no heed to Damiano who had greeted her at the end of the runway. Mia simply threw a makeshift smile at the kind-hearted man, then continued her steps towards the master room.

“Mia!” matteo exclaimed from a distance looking confused at his wife's strange attitude.

“Cursuit, Amico!” tell Coco.

Matteo nodded and rushed down. Francesca and Daniella, who were sitting next to Coco, were intending to follow Matteo. But the brown-eyed man prevented it. “Let Theo handle it,” Coco said gently to the two brothers.

Meanwhile, Mia had reached her room with a gasp of breath. After removing the flat shoes that he wore carelessly, Mia then threw her body on the bed with a recumbent position. A little more her beautiful eyes will be closed. However, Mia immediately paused. He caught a strange thing in the room. The window of the room, which was supposed to be closed, now opens in half and makes the afternoon wind blow in and move the colored curtains tosca that fill it. Mia decided to sit down and be alert.

His instincts began to work. Mia felt that there was someone else here besides her in the room. Slowly, Mia inched down from the bed, then walked towards the door and opened it. Coinciding as he turned the handle, from outside Matteo also pushed the door of the room.

“Mia!” call Matteo with one eye. “What else, my dear? Why are you acting a...” Matteo did not continue his words. A shadow of a man moved quickly and ambushed Mia's body. One thing Matteo was concerned about was the figure of the man carrying a dagger tightly clasped in his hand. It was clear the mysterious man was about to point his dagger at Mia's body.

As fast as lightning, Matteo pulled Mia aside, then stopped the pace of the man's hand. Matteo clutched the man's wrist and twisted it hard.

The man screamed in pain as he heard the sound of his right arm bone shifting. The medium-sized dagger he held fell near Matteo's feet.

Undeterred, the man tried to hit Matteo with his left hand. However, his efforts again failed, because Matteo was much more alert than him. The man's right hand was now under the grasp of Matteo's left hand. He looked chaotic and frightened, especially when Matteo grinned at him and pierced his nose using his forehead. Blood poured out profusely from the nostrils, making the man goosebumps. Matteo immediately let go of his hand and let the man fall helplessly on the floor of his room.
