Mr Romano’s Obsession のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

Rio's heart pounded in his chest as he neared the location where Luca was supposedly held captive. Without hesitation, he burst into the cottage, his sole focus on rescuing Luca. However, instead of finding Luca in distress, he was met with a shocking sight. Andrea stood before him, his hands bound and fear etched across his face. Celine, wearing a triumphant smile, stood beside him, a gun aimed at Rio. Celine's eyes narrowed, her anger directed at Andrea. "So you did bring someone, huh? I guess the police are on their way too, you bastard!" she seethed.Confusion and anger coursed through Rio as his gaze shifted between Andrea and Celine. "Where's Luca?" he demanded, desperation and fury lacing his voice. Andrea struggled to speak through the restraints on his mouth, attempting to convey something to Rio.Celine's smile widened with sadistic delight, relishing in Rio's fear. Her gaze darted to him as she spoke with deceitful certainty. "Luca? Oh, he's somewhere you'll never find him,

Elena listened intently to the sound of running water, waiting for the right moment to pick up her phone and call Ryan. When he answered, she wasted no time in expressing her frustration."I was expecting you to call," Ryan said as soon as he picked up."Don't give me that nonsense, Ryan," Elena hissed. "What were you doing with Rio earlier? Lovers? Seriously? I had no idea you were gay!" Her incredulity seeped through her words."What? Do you have a problem with gays?""Of course not! But don't change the subject. What were you doing with Rio? How long have you guys known each other?""For a while now," Ryan replied."What!" Elena shouted, checking to see if Luca had finished. "Are you out of your mind? How did you two even meet? Oh my God, Ryan, you're driving me crazy. Haven't we moved past this... this petty revenge?"Ryan scoffed. "I thought I had, but I ended up falling for the enemy, just like you did, Elena. Aren't we both failures?" His voice betrayed a hint of pain.Elena re

"Ryan! Ryan!" Rio called out frantically, his eyes pleading for sobriety. Frustrated, Rio continued, "Hey, man, look at me and answer!" Ryan gave him a sheepish smile, clearly inebriated. Just as his head began to fall onto the counter, Rio caught him in time. Sighing heavily, Rio watched him closely. What did Ryan mean by protecting him from Elena? Were they acquainted in the past?"I will always protect you, Rio, because I love you so much," Ryan murmured sleepily, causing Rio to curse under his breath as he helped him up. It was only 2 p.m., yet Ryan was already wasted. For a brief moment, Rio pushed aside his own troubles and focused solely on getting Ryan sober again. He needed answers, and he needed them as soon as possible.*************Elena descended the stairs slowly, taking her time. Sleeping in till noon had made her realize that staying home was more stressful than working at the studio. Luca was out at the office, and she wasn't sure if Andrea was home either. Earlier,

Ryan sat on one of the couches in the living room as he took in the top notch decor of the Romano’s mansion. He couldn’t help but get lost in it’s beauty. He was snapped out of his reverie when the sound of someone descending the stairs echoed in the living room. He stood up swiftly, locking eyes with Elena, who appeared visibly distressed."What the hell are you doing here?" Elena exclaimed as she reached the living room. "And who let you in?" Her tone was laced with irritation."The security let me in. I told them you were my sister. And enough with the attitude. Am I some sort of plague you're trying to avoid? Why didn't you answer my calls?" Ryan retorted, his accusatory gaze fixed upon her."Ryan, we can't deal with this right now. I need you to leave. I can't have Luca see you here..." Elena's voice trailed off anxiously."Why is that?" a voice interjected, and both Ryan and Elena turned to find Luca and his father standing by his side."Luca?" Elena breathed, her heartbeat qui

Luca remained silent in disbelief, his gaze fixed on Rio as he tried to process the statement. "What?" he exclaimed, his expression reflecting his lack of belief.Rio, realized his mistake, pressed his lips together and shifted his gaze to Luca, wearing an expressionless face."Forget it," Rio said in a subdued tone, taking a seat."I can't," Luca observed him intently, his eyes filled with concern. "I mean, I thought...""Drop it, Luca," Rio interrupted, visibly angry.Resigned, Luca sighed. "Fine," he replied, clearly hurt. Then, he turned to Ryan. "It seems like Rio is in a bad state. Let's leave," he suggested."Wow, really?" Rio's eyes sparkled with accusation as he gave Luca a reproachful look. "Now I'm the bad guy?""Then who would that make me?" Luca asked irritably. The ensuing silence made Luca feel uncomfortable, prompting him to stand up. However, before he could leave, Rio spoke up."A friend of mine died, Luca," Rio said, causing Luca to instinctively turn towards him."
