ログインElena did, in fact, like Sloane's home. It wasn't quite as big as the Ferraro estate but it was much bigger than her childhood home. It looked like a beach house out of a some teen movie with its light blue body and golden rooftop and window trims.The inside was just as spacious as Elena expected i
Before Elena knew it, her mother was running over, taking her suitcase, and then hugging her tightly."Hello, Elena," she said warmly. "I'm so glad to see you again."Her mother's voice cracked on the word "again" as she was overcome by her emotions. Elena found herself smiling at the simple but wel
"To top it all off," Luca continued, "I have to watch my boss, my best friend, make decisions that are objectively bad for him. Because they're what's best for everyone. Do you understand that?"Massimo didn't know what to say. Luckily, it didn't seem like Luca was waiting for a response."I've know

"Please give me a chance to make this up to you. I want to see you, face to face, and talk. Please."Despite waiting up for the next hour, Elena didn't receive a response.Work passed by uneventfully in the coming week. It was a good thing, too, because Elena's mind was elsewhere.Despite Aria's war
Massimo couldn't deny it. He had gotten close to Elena Vitale. He cared about her, so he cared a lot about her opinions.He couldn't trace it back to one moment, which terrified Massimo. Was it when she took a bullet for him? Ended up finding him in the casino while drugged?Or was it when she skill
Elena was relieved. Helping Massimo shop for his wife was way more pleasant than what she had feared Massimo was going to propose."Of course, Don Massimo," Elena said.
