My Italian Billionaire 36
I was contemplating the whole day if I should run back into my bosses office and cancel the Italy trip. It’s just a bad thing waiting to happen I know it. After my boss let me leave early, I went walking in the city. I stopped at my most favourite cafe ever and now I’m sitting alone in a corner with my laptop open. I know what you must be thinking what do I need it open for exactly? Well I’m debating whether or not I should look him up and find out where in Italy he is. So one part of my mind is telling me the obvious facts, he’s your ex Gabriella. Don’t go back to him. He’s moved on with his life. YOU have to move on with your life. Then the other part is stating facts I would not mind to be true. He probably still remembers you. You need to know if he works at where I’m going. This is just so you can avoid seeing him accidentally. It will rule out your doubts. My hand went to the key board typing the first letter of his name which I deleted and re typed a few more times. I then slamm

Someone got up to open the door and I introduced myself as what my boss told me to and came into the room. I felt nerves as I walked, I looked around scanning the room and observing everyone, all eyes were on me. The new person. Just great. I wish I could roll my eyes right now but, Gabriella, respect respect respect. I hate any and all forms of attention. Maybe I take that comment back, I love attention when I actually need it to feel some sort of way, for example if I feel like I look like absolute dog shit then yes give me positive attention or if I look especially good then I would love all eyes on me to give me praise and admiration for my outfit but when you’ve walked right into a room and all eyes turn to you of course that is the problem duh. Which explains why I’m just staring down at the floor to avoid any forms of human contact whilst waiting for people to go back to minding their own business and leave their eyes off of me. "You can sit there, it's not like he's going to s

I looked up to see who the mysterious voice was and of course...Luciano Martini. "Yeah sure that would be helpful." He pulled a tissue for my issue from his suit pocket and handed it over to me as he sat down, I realized where he was about to sit but looks like he made that observation for himself."Is that your throw up?" He asked with a little laugh. He always had a pretty laugh and I didn't need to really see that."Sorry...it was an accident and I couldn't find a bathroom in this big ass plac-""No it's fine, I don't think that many people actually throw up on the floor intentionally but for the next time you feel like throwing up just remember the bathrooms on the right.""That information would have been really useful a few minutes ago, but um anyway hi, I'm Gabr-""Oh no you don't have to explain, I know who you are. Do...Do you still remember me? Luciano?""Of course I do, how could I forget, you were basically the best and how can we ever forget the worst thing that ever happ

The meeting had shortly finished and now I was walking out but this time not alone. As I walked to the elevator I was joined by him. "So I was thinking we catch up soon maybe grab dinner? I mean you're in italy now and what have you done so far? I'm guessing something boring...we could even go to an art gallery afterwards? What do you think?" "I think this is very inappropriate since you're you know my boss?" "I could quit my job for you?" I laughed at his statement as the elevator stopped I got out and he followed. "Sorry but did I say something funny?" "So you want to give your big job 🔝 just for me, yeah right plus I don't date." I don't date because of Adrianna. I know that having a guy around...gosh I'd hate to have to have seen my mother moving on when I was a kid because a little bit of me had just a touch bit of faith that they'd get back together. "What you got a husband? A boyfriend? I meant what I said." "I have none of those. I just don't date people anymore. I thin

Luciano's POVI fell back onto my bed thinking about all of the things that happened today. I thought I'd never see her again. For seven years I didn’t see her. Thinking back I could have saved it, I could have saved our whole relationship. That night, I had some big plans, I was going to give her a promise ring then we'd go and watch some fireworks to end the night off, but that got ruined because my dad had gotten himself into some scandal and he said he needed me to come over. He said he needed me to come over and help him whilst the company was crumpling down and I tried telling him I can’t and asked if I could come later on because I wanted to give my full attention to Gabriella but no, he insisted I get on a plane right away. If I didn’t, he would cut me off. Meaning I’d lose every little thing. Everything. He was stressed out about the scandal, I can’t even remember what it was exactly about but all I know is that he was adamant on me getting there as fast as possible. I didn’t

Gabriella's POV I'm now back at work and the first person I see of course is Luciano, coffee in hand and all which he handed to me."How was your night and morning?" He asked with a cheerful smile. "Good, nothing too interesting happened. Like hey take this I didn't get robbed last night high five to me am I right?""Oh, well done! My night went amazing too, Amara came over to my house though.""AMARA! Please tell her I'm sorry for blocking her, I was going through some things, you would know." There is so much I deeply regret from way back then and I realised I did what she did to me, I iced her out. "Yeah sorry about that once again but I will and I will also explain absolutely everything to you on that date ok?""Ok, so do you...have any kids , wife, girlfriend?" I asked him."No, not right now that could change though.""What...you think I have a kid or something cause I really do not. Because if in any way shape or form I had a baby trust me you would know Luciano." I began dr

"You really do look beautiful right now. You know?" Luciano said as he stared into my eyes."Oh I think I know by now, this is like the fifth time you've said it. Come on tell me about you, your family, anything.""Ok, Well as you know my father retired, I own the company and I do like it but the thing is...I don't have the motivation or more like I don't push myself enough, which I want to change soon. So that's a goal. I haven't heard from my brother since he moved away to a random place, he just left a letter saying he's going away to take his years of relaxation and he isn't planning on coming back, he threw away his phone too.""Good things so far but tell me about Amara nowww.""Well, she's got a new bestie now, her husband. She's been married to julian for about 4 years now and she's never been better they even have a daughter now, you know I always thought you'd have a kid before she did because, I had planned out our possible future.""Wow so she's been busy then, glad she's

The date had now officially finished and I can say that it was one big success. He's now taking me to my hotel room, my back was against the door and his tall figure leaning over me. He smelled so good and as I was looking at his gorgeous lips and thinking about how I wanted him to kiss me, I heard him ask something unexpected. "Can I kiss you to end of this date?" Like you read my mind..."Me sure yes please do I'd love that!" He laughed before coming in for it. One hand on my waist, one hand caressing my cheek and pulling me close to him...ugh am I dreaming? His lips finally landed on mine and we were kissing! Yes! I've done it I've kissed Luciano Martini after seven yearsss! My heart feels like it's about to explode. The kiss slowly turns into a hot makeout sesh right outside my hotel door room. I part lips after a while to ask him to come in. He came in and we continued the kiss right onto the couch.I pulled away once again remembering where I am and remembering how I have daught
