Matteo didn't think much anymore. He rushed to the second floor of the workshop which was Coco's private area. There's a room there. Matteo immediately took out the key that Coco gave him. As soon as he turned the object, it turned out that the door was already unlocked. “Oh, shit!” as if Matteo opened Coco's room door. What he expected turned out to be true. The situation inside the room was as messy as it was downstairs. All of Coco's belongings were scattered on the floor. So too with his bed that was disheveled.
Matteo immediately came out of the room and went to another room where he used to relax with his best friend. Matteo didn't think the room escaped the intruder, and it was true. The 185 cm man rushed into the room where he used to put his gun.
Some of the long barrel guns that were displayed on shelves attached to the wall, were still neatly stored away. But not with his iron safe. It seemed, they were trying to forcibly open the iron vault where Matteo kept his flagship weapon. Matteo smiled cynically. “Stupid!” muttered. He laughed at the intruders who had made a mess in his friend's workshop.
Matteo returned to the room and sat on the sofa bed while unwinding. He then pulled out his phone. It was almost eleven o'clock at night. He knew that Coco must have not slept at such an hour. Matteo decided to contact the curly-haired man. However, until twice contacted, it turns out Coco did not also answer a phone call from him.
Matteo did not continue that. He put his phone on the table and walked towards the small fridge located not far from the sofa bed. He picked up a can of soft drink and sat back down. Take the cigarette box out of the coat pocket. Matteo started smoking the cigarette. Thin smoke billowed from the burning tobacco.
For a moment, the gray-eyed man thought. He tried to guess what the intruders were looking for from inside his best friend's workshop. Matteo believes they are not a pack of thieves who want to take Coco's valuables.
His memory was suddenly drawn to Vincenzo Moriarty. Could it be if it was the man who had ransacked his best friend's workshop? However, Matteo's mind was diverted to the man whose corpse he threw into the canal. He was a member of the Clan de Luca.
Matteo smoked his cigarette deeply, then puffed out his smoke in annoyance. Not yet he was appointed as chairman in the organization, he has been faced with a mystery that must be revealed immediately. Even if there is a traitor in the organization that was led by his late father, then it is his duty to solve the problem. Matteo became increasingly driven to ascend the throne. Yes, he needs that power to be more free in action.
After finishing his drink with a cigarette, Matteo walked out of the room. He returned to the bottom floor which became the workshop area. Matteo tidied up a few scattered items and equipment. After enough, he came out of that place. Matteo must continue his journey to return to Casa de Luca. The plan is, he'll call Coco tomorrow.
Returning for about half an hour, the car driven by Matteo has now entered the area with extensive wineries. After passing through two gates that were about thirty meters each, Matteo immediately stopped his car in the courtyard next to the magnificent Tuscany-style building. He saw some loyal guards standing guard around Casa de Luca. They paid their respects to Matteo who just then passed by. With a cold and flat attitude that became his trademark, Matteo entered the magnificent building.
Inside the atmosphere was already quiet. All the residents of the house were sound asleep. Matteo decided to head to his room immediately. He was tired and wanted to change clothes soon. However, Matteo immediately stopped his steps, as he passed through Marco's room. Sayup-sayup, the twenty-six-year-old man overheard a conversation between Marco who he was either doing with. Looks like Marco was talking to someone on the phone. The twenty-four-year-old laughed occasionally.
“Good work!” only that word could Matteo hear clearly. He was curious, but of course it was unyielding for Matteo to eavesdrop. Without a care, Matteo then continued his steps towards his room. Arriving inside the room, the man immediately took off his dirty coat and immediately laid down his body. He tried to close his eyes, until Matteo finally fell asleep.
The next day, Matteo woke up early in the morning. He took the time to do a morning run by walking down the path of the plantation. A pair of earphones stuck to his ears. Matteo did not look tired at that time, but last night he only slept for a few hours. However, he did not want to miss the fresh air around the plantation, among the grapes that looked very ripe.
Matteo ran over with a gaze that focused forward. His eyes were so sharp and so cold. He seemed to not care about the surrounding, until when he saw some workers from Peru who had been told by Damiano.
Matteo was stunned and watched them for a moment. After the incident last night, he became to be always vigilant. Matteo is also required to be more observant in seeing all suspicious movements in the Casa de Luca.
Suddenly, he remembered something. Matteo once asked Coco to install surveillance cameras around the Casa de Luca area. However, Coco has not been able to do that because she has to go to Venice. For a moment, Matteo stood in his place. He then checked the phone placed in the pocket of the trousers he was wearing. Coco's name is on the phone screen. The man may have just woken up and contacted Matteo directly. Immediately, Matteo answered the call from him.
“What's up, Amico? Is everything okay?” ask Coco from across the street.
Matteo searches for a place he thinks is safe to talk to Coco. After that, he answered a question from his friend. “I think you should go back to Brescia. Last night I saw your workshop in disarray. It looks like there is an intruder who has forced their way in there,” Matteo said.
“What are they looking for? I don't have any valuables there, except ..”
“Except my gun safe. They seemed to be trying to open the safe, but failed. It was clear it was Vincenzo. Who else do you think?” matteo cut Coco's sentence.
“Can be. Then, what about the corpse of the unknown man who had the Klan de Luca tattoo? You know for yourself the process of getting the tattoo had to go through a selection from Damiano, Mr. Antonio and end up on Mr. Roberto de Luca himself, which is your father,” Coco explained.
“Obviously there is no way those three people ordered the mysterious man to follow Mia. I don't think there's any good for them, even Damiano never knew about Mia,” argued Matteo.
“If you close the possibility of betrayal Damiano or Mr. Antonio, then there is only one more possibility,” explained Coco.
“What is it?” ask Matteo.
“The mysterious man defected to the Moriarty clan after he entered the Klan de Luca,” Coco replied.
“That's also impossible,” reply Matteo in a slightly doubtful tone.
“What is impossible? What other possible reasons?” Coco began to lose her patience.
“Something's weird, buddy. I have always recognized every member of the clan, even to his family once. I know them. However, I never saw the man at all,” Matteo asserted.
Matteo took a deep breath, then exhaled slowly. “Considerate,” murmured, "so, Vincenzo has known all along that Silvio intends to betray me. Maybe the clan has big plans for the de Luca family through Silvio,” Matteo said.
“First, Silvio targets to kill me, despite failing. After that, they killed my parents, then Mia,” the tone of Matteo's voice trembled when calling that name.
“I'm starting to understand where the destination is,” is furious.
“What is it?”
“They want to eliminate all members of the de Luca family or anyone who has closeness and relationship with the nuclear family, so that no offspring born from there can continue the power of the organization,” explained Matteo.
The atmosphere became silent for a moment. Neither Coco nor Matteo had any desire to say anything.
“Then, what will you do next?” Coco then broke the silence.
Matteo did not answer immediately. He turned his gaze towards the plantation land that was spread as far as the eye could see. “Later noon will be held the funeral of Padre and Madre,” Matteo said slowly. “I will attend the ceremonial event until later tonight. Tomorrow, I can just tell my men to tidy up and clean your place,”.
“Don't think about it, Amico. That's the last thing you can think of,” Coco.
“No, can't! I can't run the coronation procession if my surroundings are still problematic, Coco,” Matteo refused. “I will clean up your workshop and also solve Mia problem .…”
“How do you fix Mia's problem?” sela Coco's.
“Tomorrow after the funeral, will be held a member meeting. There, I will make it clear that I have no relationship and do not want to be in contact with anyone, so that I can ensure that I will not be able to have children. Maybe that way, those people will release Mia,”.
“Are you sure?” Coco began to crumble across there.
“Hey, you son of a bitch! This is not the time to joke!” matteo Ogat.
"Looking at your lunge towards women, I'm not sure if you won't have children" Coco said, holding back a laugh.
“You have no children with Mia, but you have children with other women,” he added.
“That's impossible! I always play it safe!” elak Matteo's.
“Ah, Amico, in my opinion, the way out is not that,” thought Coco.
“Then what?”
“You have two options. First, you quit the de Luca organization and start a normal life. That way, there will be no one threatening your life to seize the reins of leadership. In addition, you also have the opportunity to live happily with Mia,” explained Coco.
Matteo just laughed cynically in response to that.
“Continue with second choice,” tell it.
“You will soon make yourself chairman. Control all sectors. Enlarge your territory and conquer Moriarty. That way, no one will dare mess with you!” firmly Coco with a satisfied smile.
