Grace's Pov

The car pulled over in front of the restaurant. It looked warm, inviting, like a place that belonged in someone else’s world. Not mine.

Because I don't know what mine was anymore.

Giovanni opened the car door and offered me a hand. I placed my hand in his and stepped out slowly, my heels clicking on the pavement.

The moment we walked in, I felt eyes on us. The hostess approached us and smiled warmly.

“Table under reservation named Morelli,” Giovanni said, and the hostess checked the tab with her.

“This way,” she said, guiding us toward a table by the window.

It was beautiful. Tables by the window are always the best.

Giovanni pulled my chair for me to sit before sitting on the chair across from me.

There was soft music playing in the background of the restaurant. I was looking around the restaurant, noticing how elegant and exquisite the interior of the restaurant was when Giovanni spoke.

“Silvano made the reservation,” he said “but he couldn’t make it.”

  • A Nurse for the Mafia Don    Chapter 136

    Grace's povI stared at the scene in front of me unsure what to say or do. I just stared as they struggled for the pot. Antonio was holding the pot.How did he even know about food in the pot?Luca was dragging it with him, dipping his hand inside while Salvatore was shouting, trying to get hold of the pot too. “I was in the kitchen with Antonio when they came in asking for the food you cooked, and since then they have been fighting for the food,” Elisa said, coming to me.That explains why they were like this.Antonio was growling like a bear who was about to attack, Luca looked like he was about to throw a fight, and Salvatore, poor Salvatore, was holding a spoon while screaming.“Let Go Of The Pot!” Antonio barked, tugging it harder towards him.“It is mine!” Luca snapped, his hand already full of rice. “If I didn't tell you, you wouldn't know about the food.”“I took the pot first,” Antonio shouted back.“You rushed over to take the pot when we told you there was food.” Luca co

  • A Nurse for the Mafia Don    Chapter 135

    Silvano's Pov Luca, Valentina, and Harper were in the room when I entered. He was standing between the two ladies, his arms crossed while Valentina and Harper were sitting. Luca was the first to turn to me.“They found partial prints, and we ran them against everyone's print in the house,” Luca said immediately, stepping forward.“And?” I asked.Valentina swiveled in her chair, handing me a printed sheet. “The print matches you and Grace's.”I looked at the print and saw that it only matched me and Grace's own. “You both held the note so you got your print on it but the person who dropped it was careful not to get caught,” Luca continued. My hold on the sheet tightened, almost squeezing it, and I looked at Harper, whose attention was on me. “What about the cameras?” I asked.She shook her head. “There was no unusual movement. The person followed the zones that the camera couldn't reach,” I squeezed the sheet, threw it to the floor, and punched the wall behind me. Dead end.“We

    Silvano's Pov After reassuring Grace that she is safe, she didn't want to be alone, so I went back with her to the room. The note was gone, Valentina had taken care of it.I lay on the bed, facing her as she played with my beard. I observed her features. Her big blue eyes which looked innocent, her plump lips that look tempting, and her beautiful nose. Everything about her face was perfect.“Are you going to leave after I sleep?” She asked.“Do you want me to stay?” I asked her.She thought about it before she shook her head. “You have to go and work. I can't letkeep you here with me,” “I can stay with you if you want to,” I said but she shook her head, her eyes drooping. “No, don't. You can go after I sleep. Just hold me till I sleep,” she said and I drew closer to her, pulling her into my arms. I held her till she fell asleep, and waited till she was deep in her sleep. I wanted to leave, but I found myself looking at her instead of leaving her. Her breath was soft and steady.

    Grace's pov“You are fierce. Just what he needs by his side.” He said and Antonio agreed with him as he ate. “You can cook, which is a bonus. I haven't eaten such delicious food in a long time.”Salvatore said it with a mouth full of food, his eyes closed like he was savoring the taste of the food.“If I had someone make me food like this every day, I would marry the person right away without hesitation, or better still, I would commit extra crimes just to come home to it,” he continued.Was that meant to make me smile?“Please don’t,” I muttered, giving him a look.“Honestly, Grace,” Luca chimed in, licking his fingers. “Open a restaurant. Call it La Cucina di Grace. I will be your number one customer.”“I will be the head chef,” Antonio added. “I will help with the tasting every day,”“I will just marry you,” Salvatore said, winking at me. Oh God. He just met me and he was flirting with me. Val stood up from where she was seated and went to the refrigerator. “You all do realize y

    Grace's povI followed Antonio out of the room, each step heavier than the last. My mind was still split—half stuck in that conversation with Luca, the other half trying to prepare for whatever Silvano had found out.We reached the hallway outside Silvano’s office.Antonio stopped. “He’s inside. You can go in.”I gave a stiff nod and pushed the door open.Silvano stood with his back to me, staring out the window, hands clasped behind him.The tension in the air was thick.He didn’t turn around as he said, “Valentina. Close the door.”I did.Finally, he turned.His eyes locked with mine—sharp, unreadable.“They moved,” he said. “The Russians. We found where they’re keeping the weapons.”I exhaled, part relieved, part confused.“And?” I asked.He walked toward the table, dropped a photo face-down, then looked up at me again.“They were expecting us.”My stomach twisted.“It was a setup,” he added. “Somebody told them we were coming.”He flipped the photo over.I looked at it— and felt t

    Grace's povAs Silvano held me close, I felt a wave of relief wash over me. I was safe, and he had come for me. But beneath the relief, anger and betrayal simmered. Elisa's face flashed in my mind, her cold expression as she revealed her true intentions.I pulled back from Silvano, my eyes meeting his. "Elisa," I said, my voice barely above a whisper. "She's the one who betrayed us."Silvano's expression turned cold, his jaw clenched. "We'll deal with her later," he said, his voice firm.I nodded, still trying to process everything. Silvano helped me out of the warehouse, and we made our way back to the safety of his estate. The drive was silent, my mind racing with questions. How could Elisa do this to us? What had driven her to betray us?When we arrived at the estate, Silvano took me to his study, where Luca was waiting. "We need to talk about Elisa," Silvano said, his voice serious.Luca nodded. "We've been investigating her activities. It seems she was working with the Russians a
