Chapter 77

• “I hope she gives us a chance.”
• He prayed as he walked down the road heading towards Alfred’s house with long strides. He hoped Ugo was home, he needed to speak to her and he must do it now. His mind was still reeling from all that he’d learnt from his father, but he cannot delay talking to Ugo any longer. He’d found out from the boys that came with his father that she was not at the diner, that was why he was heading to Alfred’s house to see her, hoping against hope that she has not heard that his father was in town or he might not get her to listen to him.
• Dante loves her, yes, he loves her, no more fighting it. He wanted her in his life and he will do anything to make it happen. So, he knew his chances of winning her over will diminish if she found out that her father was in her beloved town and jumped into wrong conclusion that he had sent for him because of the ring. He didn’t care about the ring anymore. No, he still wanted his ring back but that didn’t matter as much as before. All he wanted now was Ugo. The woman is so stubborn that he knew his job of convincing her was not going to be easy.
