All Chapters of A Nurse for the Mafia Don : Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Grace's PovI left Silvano in my room to rest and went to the kitchen. He said he was leaving in about an hour, so I wanted to make food for him and pack some for Antonio and Valentina, also. I hummed as I cooked and in about 30 minutes, I was done with cooking. I packed for Valentina and Antonio and served the others food. Luca appeared at the doorway, watching me for a moment before speaking. “You are up early,” he said softly. I smiled and turned to him before turning back to what I was doing. “ Silvano said you were going to the main house in an hour, so I wanted to make food for everyone and pack some for Valentina and Antonio, also.”“Thank you but I don't think Antonio would need it. He is getting fat already. Where is his own, I will eat it.” He said, reaching for the bag I had put their food and I slapped his hand away. “Ouchhh, Grace,” he winced, sitting down on one of the chairs, “why do you do that for?” He asked.“You are not going to eat his food. I will call a

Silvano's pov The drive to the main house was quiet. Luca sat beside me, scrolling through his phone, probably checking for updates we already knew. I kept my eyes ahead and my jaw tight. Something in me was uneasy and I couldn't explain it.We arrived at the gates, and as soon as the guards saw the car, they opened them without question. I parked close to the front entrance and stepped out.Antonio was already waiting by the door, sipping coffee and looking like he hadn’t slept much. “You are late,” he said.“You are lucky I showed up at all,” I replied, brushing past him.Inside, Valentina was pacing the hallway, speaking quickly in Italian to someone on the phone. She glanced up when she saw me, ended the call, and walked over.“We have a situation,” she said quietly, walking over to me. “The CCTV footages are all gone but the hidden car camera is still working so far, so we might have something,” she finished, her voice low and tense.I stiffened. “Gone? As in completely wiped?”

Silvano's pov There was nothing we could do but wait. We have to wait for anything they might want to do.All of us couldn't be going to the house all out once anymore. I couldn't risk them finding Grace.So only Luca and I were going back and we were taking a different car. The drive back to the house was quiet. Luca kept his eyes on the road, and I watched the rearview mirror, scanning for any signs of a tail. We took a different route, winding through side streets and alleys, avoiding main roads. We couldn't afford to be predictable.As we approached the house, I felt a knot tighten in my stomach. Grace was inside, unaware of the storm brewing around us. I had to keep her safe.We parked a block away and walked the rest of the distance, blending with the shadows. The house looked the same, quiet and peaceful, but I was afraid of it not being safe enough for Grace.We knocked on the door and waited a few minutes before Grace opened the door for us. Grace greeted us with a smile,

Grace's pov“No, hear me out. If I go with you and I stay in the secured wing. I won’t get involved in anything. I will just be there, and I will have more protection than this place, while you can work better.There, you have men, cameras, guards, and you will also be there, it will be safer there,” I said at once.He didn’t say anything immediately. His thumb started rubbing his jaw the way it always did when he was calculating risk.“I can also help,” I added. “I am still a nurse. If someone gets injured, I can assist. It won’t be much of a problem, but it is something. Let me help, Vano. Please”His brow furrowed. “You don’t understand what that place could turn into if this goes further. If the Raven Syndicate escalates, the main house might not feel safe. It might become a battlefield.”“Then all the more reason to keep us all in one place. Dispersing doesn’t make us harder to hit, it just makes us easier to pick off,” I said, my voice firmer now.“But look at it this way. You ca

Grace's povAT THE MAIN HOUSE Silvano opened the door of the room and I gasped in surprise. He stood out of the way for me and I entered the room. I thought his room back at his house was big but I was wrong. This room is bigger than it. The room was simple but warm. It had a very big bed with clean white sheets, it had a big closet, and a bathroom behind a door in the room. The view from the room was very nice and the room smelled like him and a bit of roses. “For you,” I heard Silvano say, and turned to me. In his hands was a bouquet of red roses. “Am I entering a shrine or something, and you need to pay an accolade to me by giving me flowers?” I asked, raising my eyebrows at him.“I wish,” he raised and I smiled, collecting the flowers from him. “It is just a form of welcoming you,” “I know Valentina prepared this, so I'd better thank her.” I turned away from him, hugging the bouquet to myself and taking in the sweet smell.“I instructed her to do so,” I heard him say behin
