Throughout the journey, Elio sat on my lap while occasionally pointing at the city lights from the car window.

Nicola sat across from us, busy reading some messages on his phone.

When the car finally stopped, I immediately saw a grand building. A row of luxury cars filled the courtyard. The guests wore evening gowns and expensive suits, while several photographers stood near the red carpet.

The charity gala was apparently far bigger than I had imagined.

"Wow!" Elio exclaimed while pressing his

  • DIVORCED, THEN CHOSEN BY THE MAFIA DON AND HIS SON   Chapter 46

    The next day.My head felt heavy, my throat was dry, and my whole body felt like it had been beaten. I opened my eyes little by little.I blinked several times, trying to remember what happened last night. However, my memory only contained pieces of irregular events.Gala. Alcohol. Nicola. Car.Then...I immediately covered my face with both hands.Oh my God! What did I do last night?I remembered pinching his nose, pulling his eyebrows, messing up his hair, even touching the front of his pants.I screamed silently, then pulled the blanket up to cover my whole face.Dear God, please bury me alive!How could I have done something so embarrassing to Nicola Conti? The man who could make an entire room go silent with just one look.I wanted to disappear. However, before I could enjoy my embarrassment alone, a small voice was heard from near the door."Mommy?"I immediately lowered the blanket.Elio stood there in his blue pajamas. His black hair was a little messy, while both his hands he

    I was still laughing when the car stopped in front of the mansion. Nicola got out first, carrying Elio who was already fast asleep on his chest, then handed him to the guard waiting at the main door. After that he returned to the car and carefully pulled me out.My legs wobbled as soon as they touched the ground. I almost fell forward, but he immediately carried me. My body felt light in his arms, or maybe it was just the alcohol making everything feel strange and light. I could feel his steady heartbeat pressed against my cheek."I can walk on my own," I protested while laughing a little."Be quiet."I bit my lip, but my laughter wouldn't stop. I pinched his sharp, straight nose."Your nose is like a Greek statue."Then my fingers went up to his thick eyebrows. I played with the eyebrow hairs, pulling them gently, making him frown deeply."Stop," he murmured, but his voice wasn't too loud."Your eyebrows are like caterpillars," I said while laughing again, louder. "A handsome caterpi

    I had just reached the corridor toward the exit when Nicola's footsteps were heard behind me."Stop."I closed my eyes for a moment before finally turning around.Nicola stood a few steps from me. His face still looked serious, while both his hands were in his pants pockets."What now?" I asked."Why do you always jump to your own conclusions?"I laughed flatly. "What conclusion? Aren't I really just Elio's nanny?""Don't start again."I lowered my head, looking at Rocco's jacket still wrapped around my waist."Sorry if I was rude earlier. I just felt I didn't belong there. Even as a nanny, I'm not worthy of enjoying an event like that," I said.Nicola fell silent.I continued, "Everyone knows you. They know Marianna, your family, and other important people. Meanwhile I'm just the woman you pay to take care of your son.""Are you done?"I nodded. He then extended his hand without saying much.I stared at his palm in confusion."What?""Give me your hand."I placed my hand on his palm.

    Not long after, the host went back up on stage and announced that the dance session would begin soon.The orchestra music changed to something more romantic. Several couples began to stand and walk toward the dance floor. The men extended their hands to their respective partners, while the women smiled accepting their invitations.I was still sitting while watching Elio who was now on Nicola's lap."Nicola," Marianna called.The man turned."Would you dance with me?"Nicola didn't answer immediately.Marianna smiled, then leaned closer and whispered, "My grandfather is also here. At least dance with me for a little while. You know how important the relationship between our two families is."I saw Nicola let out a breath before finally standing up."Alright. Just one song."Marianna smiled with satisfaction. She took Nicola's hand and led him toward the dance floor.I watched them from my chair.They looked very matching.Nicola was tall in his black suit, while Marianna looked gracefu

    Rocco immediately laughed while raising both hands."Calm down, Miss Ferrante. I was just joking. I mean, she's Elio's nanny. Don't take it too seriously."Marianna looked at me briefly, then smiled faintly. "Besides, it's impossible for Nicola's taste to be this low."Nicola didn't respond to her words. He only glanced at me briefly before a man came toward him and informed him that the official event would begin soon."We'll talk later," Nicola said to me.I nodded slightly. Rocco patted his cousin's shoulder while smiling mischievously."Don't be too tense, Nic. This is a charity event, not a war meeting.""Shut up."I almost laughed seeing Nicola's annoyed expression.Not long after, the host went up on stage. The guests began taking their respective seats. I sat at one table with Elio, while Nicola was at the same table, right beside Marianna.I watched them from the corner of my eye. Marianna leaned toward Nicola several times to whisper something. She even touched the man's arm

    I was startled when I saw the man standing beside Ray.Rocco Conti, Nicola's cousin, wore a black suit with a white shirt. His hand gripped Ray's wrist that had almost slapped me."How dare you raise your hand in public," Rocco said coldly.Ray tried to pull his hand away, but Rocco instead gripped it tighter."Let go of my hand!" Ray snapped.Rocco looked at him without expression. "You should learn to control your hand before coming to a place like this.""Who are you?" Ray asked.A thin smile appeared on Rocco's face."Someone who will make you regret it if you touch this woman."Several guests began to notice us. I could feel many pairs of eyes directed at Ray and Rocco.Serena immediately pulled Ray's arm. "Sweetheart, stop. Don't make a scene here."Ray still looked angry, but finally Rocco released his hand with a small push."Get lost," Rocco said.Ray cursed softly. He looked at me sharply before finally leaving with Serena. The woman briefly turned toward me with an annoyed
