"I'm gonna miss you!"Trish smiled as she pulled Natalie into a hug. She was upset that she had to leave but she knew it was necessary especially now that she was married.Natalie and Dante were also married and they needed their privacy besides she would get a whole cabin and an Island all to herself."I'm gonna miss you too," she mumbled in Natalie's ears."I'll come to visit okay," Natalie smiled at her.At the other side of the room, Dario was glaring at Ricco. "This isn't goodbye you know but the death stares you've been throwing at me would lead me to an early grave."Dario snorted. "The moment you hurt my sister I'll hunt you even beyond the grave."Ricco chuckled. "I will never hurt Trish so don't bother. You aren't going to carry out that threat.""You had better be sure."After Trish had bid everyone goodbye including her brother, she joined Ricco to leave for the island.She still couldn't believe

Faustino glanced at his granddaughter and chuckled while he continued cleaning his gun."Grandpa!" Natalie exclaimed.Faustino sighed. "I'm not in the mood for your games, Natalie. I have something urgent to attend to."Natalie shook her head at him wondering when her grandpa became so moody."What's wrong, Grandpa?" "Ricco's gone, Nat. It's just me that's running my empire and other small chains of business," he replied. He sounded so weary and his face was exhausted. He seemed to have aged ten times his normal age.Natalie furrowed her brow in concentration as she thought about Noah's request to go with him. Maybe the kid had been here and seen what her grandpa was going through."Grandpa, I know you've had Ricco for a while now," she began."Yeah, I have. Now, I don't know who I'll hand the company over to when I'm no more."Natalie chuckled. Death is still far from you grandpa.""But we have to be prepared for all

Dario stepped into his office and smiled when he saw his name decorated on the glass nameplate as the CEO of his parents' company.He had just arrived in Italy two days ago and now he was ready to do what his parents never achieved before they died. He was taking the Esposito Empire public, they will be launching an IPO before the end of next year. He has called for a board meeting where Faustino would introduce him as the new CEO.His smile widened when he thought of how proud his parents would be but he didn't let that get into his head. He had to focus and finish up the task he had at hand only then can he rejoice.He stared at the polished mahogany table with the recliner chairs in his office. The plush red rug felt soft in his legs as he wiggled his barefoot on it.His office was large, neat, and tidy and he loved the fact that he could watch the entire city from the balcony in his office. The next glass door in his office was that of his P.A

"New Year Celebrations In Italy! Count me in!!"Natalie chuckled at Trish's excitement as she ended the call. The way she had jumped around the house, she was on the verge of breaking her water bag."So, Carino is coming?"Natalie looked up from her tablet and saw Dario standing by her doorway."Yeah she is but you look awful," she replied assessing him. His eyes were bloodshot and he looked like he hadn't slept in days."It's nothing. Where's Dante?"Natalie cocked a brow at him. "What is the matter, Dario? And Dante went out with Noah.""I can't understand Cassie anymore. One minute she's sweet and loving and the next minute, she's moody," Dario sighed running a hand through his hair. He plopped down on the bed and Natalie noticed a day-old beard on his chin."What happened Dario? You guys have been together for only a couple of days and now you're having issues?"Dario shrugged. "Maybe it wasn't such a good idea to ask her out

Dante heaved a sigh of relief when he finally up into Dario's house. He couldn't wait to be back in America so he could finally continue his business.He entered the house and saw Dario staring at his laptop, he smiled at him."I was wondering if you guys were never gonna come home," Dario said.Dante cocked his brow at him. "It's just me.""Oh, I thought you were out with Natalie and Chloe," Dario said."Natalie and Chloe aren't at home?" He asked surprised.Dario shook his head. "They left a note that they went out for a girls' outing but I figured since it was late they would have been with you.""Have you tried calling them?" Dante asked worriedly."No, I don't have any signal in here. I'll have to go out of the house, what about you?" "I had a little accident and I lost my phone," Dante replied quickly."Okay? I guess we'll go outside and try calling her," Dario said eyeing him suspiciously.Dante prayed in
