Chapter 84

• "Nonno what's happening?" One of the twin boys asked, making me look at him. Why did he call Emilio that? I held his gaze for a while, before looking back at Emilio who looked guilty. Wait a minute. What was going on here? If Greta had fetched me to see her Nonno, and this boy who was definitely her younger brother just called Emilio Nonno, then.... my God.
• "Nonno?" I asked, pulling my hands away from his own. "Nonno?" I asked again.
• "Nonno." The boy confirmed my thoughts. It all suddenly began to make sense. The first time we had met. My boss had acted like something was off, I just didn't think about it this way. All the times he'd relieved me of my duties at work..... That was because he truly had the power to ask that of my boss. And his Rosa.... Our identical eyes. Manuel had said the same about his Nonna. How could I have been so dumb??!! No wonder Emilio Russo suddenly traveled out of Milan the very day I was supposed to meet with him. It's because he had been with me all along. I tried to make out words, but failed wolfly. My lips quivered in fear when I realized I had told this man everything. Literally everything!! He knew about my initial feelings for Manuel. He knew I was dating Anthonio. Oh my God! Tears clouded my eyes and for some seconds, I lost track of what they had been saying.
