The charm of Mr. De Luca

The charm of Mr. De Luca
Broken Heart's



Matteo thought deeply again. Sometimes he turned his gaze to the sweet girl on the balcony. However, his concentration was now starting to split everywhere. There are some mysteries that he must solve, while he must begin to act with calculation and planning that is much more mature.


“The plan after the funeral of my parents will be held the appointment of myself as the new chairman at the Organization de Luca,”, said Matteo.


“That's good, it should be. Prioritize that first,” Coco said. He then broke his body. Coco placed her head over the palms she put together. His gaze was fixed on the ceiling of the room with a ceiling decorated with a little cobwebs. Suddenly, he remembered the young girl he had delivered home last night.


“Everything is a top priority for me, pal. Klan de Luca and also Mia,” Matteo complained softly. Listening, he laid his body next to Coco's body. “Do you think I look like a coward?” tanyakanya.


“Maybe. However, you have your own reasons for doing such a thing. Sometimes the woman needs a statement, even if it is just a few words. I don't think they don't understand. However, maybe it was just a sign if they wanted more attention. Ah, that's the woman,” comments Coco.


Matteo was just pensive to hear the words of his best friend. Her memories returned when she first met Mia. The beginning of the meeting so impressed him, that Matteo had unwittingly fallen in love with him.


I don't know what was affecting Coco, so she suddenly hummed softly. The man sang his favorite song. The song's lyrics were heard touching deep into Matteo's heart. The gray-eyed man listened to his best friend's humming solemnly until finally without feeling they were both sound asleep that night.


At about ten in the morning, Matteo woke up. He did not expect to have slept in bed with Coco, on a small bed. They both crammed into each other. "What kind of bed is this?" matteo complained while getting up and doing a little stretching. His body felt sore and uncomfortable.


A moment later, Matteo headed for the sink that was in the corner of the room. He washed his face there until he felt a little fresh. Matteo went back to the window and stared at Mia's room. There was no sign of the girl there. Could Mia have left? thought Matteo with a bit of disappointment. Meanwhile, Coco was still soundly asleep. Matteo stood for a while by the window. His mind returned to the scene that night. Matteo felt clueless. It was not the first time he had sex with a girl.


Moments later, the sound of his phone rang. Matteo immediately took the thing from inside his coat pocket. Damiano's name was on the phone screen. Matteo answered the call immediately. "What's up, Damiano?" ask her flatly.


"When are you going home, son?" damiano's voice was on the other end of the phone. The man's tone always sounded calm and loving.


"Well, why?" Matteo asked back.


"I received word from the police. They said they wanted to meet you to discuss Mr and Mrs de Luca. I think it might be related to the autopsy that the forensic team has done" Damiano said.


"You handle it first while I'm not back yet. I still have to finish a little business in Venice" replied Matteo still in a flat tone.


"There's one more thing, my son. I heard from Mr. Antonio, he said the police have filed files with the court to process the sentence that will be handed down to ...." Damiano did not continue his words, which were heard at that time only the sound of heavy breathing full of regret. Matteo doesn't talk much either. It was the same with Damiano, regretting the decision they had taken. Matteo is increasingly encouraged to be able to immediately find the actual perpetrator.


"I'll do my best. Find out about his family and give them whatever they need, let no one miss" Matteo said.


"Good, Son. I'm going to have my confidants look for information about the man, because I don't really know him either" Damiano said. After that, they ended the conversation.


After a while, Matteo immediately tidied himself up. He put the black coat back on. Standing for a moment by the window, Matteo stared at the nanar towards Mia's room. Coco just opened her eyes.


“Where to, Amico?” coco asked as she raised her head and turned to Matteo who was walking towards the door. The man did not answer. He walked straight out of the building and stepped quite hastily towards Mia's shop. There the girl was busy serving customers with Francesca. The shop looks crowded, but Matteo doesn't care anymore. Mia was the only goal back then.


Their distance is getting closer.


Mia, who was serving the menu to customers with a back to Matteo, was completely unaware of the presence of the beautiful man behind her, until Mia's arm was pulled by Matteo and forced him to turn around. Without excuse, Matteo kissed Mia's lips just like that.


The girl did not have time to dodge, warm Matteo's lips as if hypnotizing him for a while. Mia could reply. It carries feelings. Longing takes hold of him and makes him seem to lose control. Of course, the view became the center of attention of all visitors to the tavern, including Francesca who could only gape.


Mia was so swept away with a touch of Matteo. After a while, the logic came back. He pushed Matteo's body until the tall man took a few steps back. “What are you doing, Theo? Valentino is coming soon,” protest Mia firmly.


“I don't care anymore, Mia! Ilove you. Love you so much!” matteo's sentence sounded full of emphasis.


Mia nodded slowly. Tears began to fall on her cheeks. “It's too late, Theo! You should have said that when I came to you in Brescia! Now, I'm gonna marry Vale. Accept reality!” reject it.


“Since childhood, the late Padre has always educated me to never stop pursuing my desires. This time I won't stop either, Mia!” firmly Matteo.


“Isn't it, Theo? How selfish of you! You refused and humiliated me! This time, you also asked me to accept your love! Don't you care a little about how I feel?”


“I really care about how you feel, Mia! That's why I forbid you to marry her!” reply Matteo firmly. Their voices were so loud that anyone in the tavern could hear them clearly.


No answer came out of Matteo's mouth. He just fell silent. I don't know what to say to Mia. Another promise that Mia will wait for him until Matteo completes the murder of her parents, or take the girl with the risk of danger that might come her way?Long enough Mia waited for Matteo to speak, until Valentino came to enter the tavern and approached them.


“Is there a problem, Mia? Why is this guy here? Did he hurt you again?” Valentino stood in front of Mia and faced Matteo.


“It's okay, Vale. He has needs around here. I have all told you about our marriage,” Mia replied to reassure Valentino.


Matteo's jaw looks hard. He wanted to beat up someone or something, but he could stand it. Matteo just clenched his hands.


“Ah, coincidence. Matteo's arrival gave me an idea. What if we invite him to our wedding?” cetus Mia's.


“Our wedding is still a long time, Mia. About two months away, after we graduate,” Valentino said.


“I'm thinking of sulking our wedding date. I want us to be officially husband and wife next week,” said Mia lightly.


“Really, Mia?” asked the surprised and happy Valentino. Happy sparkles were clearly in his eyes.


While Matteo was no less surprised. He had no idea that Mia would make such a decision. It was like a big rock had fallen and hit him, squeezing his chest until he was unable to breathe. “Say once again, Mia!” hiss Matteo.


“I want to file our wedding date,” firmly Mia.


The corners of Matteo's lips formed a smile. A cynical smile that looks bitter. “So, it's your decision?” ask him again.


“Ya!”mia answered briefly. His face looked up at Matteo's gray eyes.


“Alright, if that's what you want,” Matteo's last sentence is thrown before he turns around and leaves everyone looking at him. His steps still look sturdy and dashing, typical of a Matteo. A loss that does not make him weak. There was no other choice for Matteo than to step forward.


As for Mia, she looked at that back until it disappeared from her sight. It feels so stifling. She should be happy about her wedding plans, not withholding such grief.


“You okay, Mia?” Valentino touched her fiance's shoulder gently. However, unexpectedly Mia dodged the touch of Valentino's hand. The girl turned back while holding her back. “Sorry, Vale. I want to be alone now,” the girl passed from before Valentino without waiting for the young man's answer. Mia intends to calm herself down in the storeroom, where she used to hide Matteo. It is undeniable, the feeling of Valentino is painful to get such treatment from Mia.


“Give my sister time, Vale. Mia needs to clear her mind,” said Francesca who suddenly stood next to Valentino.


Mia was about to enter the warehouse when her phone rang. His father's name is on the screen. Mia answered the call immediately. “What's up, dad?” tanyakanya.


“Come, Mia. Come to the hospital. Take Dani and Francy too,” her father's tone sounds strange, like someone who just cried.


“Dad? Did something happen?” feelings of anxiety and anxiety increasingly attacked Mia.


“Come here. Mom is waiting for you,” closed Mr. Gio.
