Chapter 215

• Serafina
• Enzo never came to dinner and Luca was called away on an urgent matter ten minutes into our meal, so it was just Veda and I. She tried to talk Lisa, the one who’d made the delicious meal, into sitting and eating with us, but she refused, claiming she wanted to take advantage of the men’s absence to tidy up Luca’s office before she cleaned up the kitchen and finished up for the night.
• Veda was quiet during our meal, but then again, so was I. My stomach was in knots, and I pushed my food around on my plate, unable to eat more than a few bites.
