Impossible Love

Impossible Love 86

Maxieplus.

They had to go and it was getting late, I have never laughed so much in my life. Conner got what he wanted a permanent position as a cameraman on the Iris Wilson wine show, he even negotiated to be mentioned in the credits.

Brent kissed my cheeks and they walked home with a security guard in tow. He had held off and lurked by the walkway while his boss had some fun. No Grant tonight he must be having the night off and no Teddy either he has a sleepover.

I settled the babies down and Lukas was asleep in Gianni's arms before we left the lift. One baby went off quickly the other followed as I pulled his blanket up and the third just couldn't hold his eyes open any longer, they didn't even close fully as he slept soundly. My Gianni was propped up in bed and Angie and Francisco took their dinners home to eat. The boys sat up and had another wine they were talking about cameras for the show.

"It makes sense she goes live Antonio, our fans want to see us in person."

"Have you already bought the cameras?"

"Yes Antonio, they need to be set up and Iris needs to move more furniture, we will help her with that."

"So you won't be doing it at Conners place?"

"Why give him more advertising Antonio, if he wants that he can build a studio for our Iris." He whined, Leons back.

"Goodnight boys," I kissed them both and went to tease my husband.

He was more than ready for me when I arrived, his hand was working furiously under the blankets. As soon as I slipped into bed, I took over and used my mouth to help him along. We weren't disturbed and made our orgasms last, he then kissed me, told me he loved me, and we went to sleep.

I still have to find time to read that will, it was naughty but something was pushing me to do it. We were not alone in the morning, four in bed and three babies fast asleep in our arms, I had to get up and get them they were restless and I wanted Lukas to get a good night's sleep. They wanted to play because I heard a few giggles before they went back to sleep, I also heard Leon talking softly to them in Italian. They don't understand it yet but I'm sure they will in a few months, their words are random and they only know the basics it all takes time but in the meantime, I like them as babies but they are growing so fast.

I said my good mornings to gran and grandad as I poured a coffee.

"No babies?"

"They are still asleep gran, is Lukas awake?"

"Not yet Antonio, did they have a big night?"

"Yes, they went down ok, but got restless during the night."

"You know what you have to do then." She smiled.

"Yes, gran earlier nights and no excitement but tell the babies that, they are so used to playing with Sam now it will be hard to put a stop to it."

Iris was early I think she is expecting a big morning wood show as she sat and had coffee with me.

"Did you sleep well?"

"Yes, I couldn't stop laughing they are rare treasures, Antonio."

"They certainly are, and maybe they will show you their jewels soon."

"I hope so." She grinned.

"What are you planning to do to Mr. Ferguson?"

"I will pre-tape an interview for my ten minute spot, and I have no idea what will happen after that."

"So you are going to the winery sometime?"

"Yes Antonio, I want to talk to him anyway about the overflow, he's worked hard for his family he needs a leg up."

"Good, then it's decided we give him the extra business."

"Yes and I will tape the interview when I'm there, then he can come into the studio for the live-action, god forbid."

I was toying with my phone and wanted so much to look at it but I cant not with gran and Iris here maybe later on.

"How are you getting there?"

"I always take the train Antonio, I love the trip and it's shorter than going by road, my niece will pick me up from the station."

"No problems I will come with the kids one day, they will love the train trip."

"Yes, they haven't done that yet."

Leon walked out with one little Gianni, he was showing his family jewels and Iris blushed while sneaking a good look. We heard Gianni slap Carlos's ass and then he called out to me.

"Antonio, Luka needs changing."

I went in to get him, Antonio was talking to his uncle I think they are planning their day. I grabbed Luka and kissed him all over, he giggled then I took his wet nappy off and wiped him down.

I looked in on Lukas he was sitting up in bed scratching his head.

"Nona's here." He jumped out of bed and I bent down for my morning kiss then he ran out to the family room.

I finished up and took Luca out, he was over my shoulder and laughing his head off.

Placing him on Iris's lap she immediately had a half biscuit in her hands and he began dribbling all over her eating it.

Carlos had his shorts on but when he saw Iris he dashed back into the bedroom and changed into a jock, that's better, got to keep the boss happy.

He sat next to her deliberately and he and Leon played games with our dear friend whenever Gran wasn't looking.

"I know what your doing boys, this old nona has the eyes in the back of her head." They stopped teasing Iris her face dropped.

Lukas came over and collected more kisses and Gianni tickled him then sat him on his knees. He leaned into me and whispered that he needed some money.

"What for baby?"

"Shush daddy." He tried to wink.

"Ok we get it soon."

"Now."

"Come with me."

I walked him into the bedroom, he turned around and slammed the door.

I opened the safe and he took the envelope with his twenty dollars in it then put the rest back.

"What do you want it for baby?"

"Do not tells, nono's birthday tomorrow."

"Oh, I forget what are you going to buy him?"

"Papas wine daddy can you helps me?'

"Of course I can but you have school today, do you want me to buy it and wrap it up nice?"

"Yes please daddy and a name thing,"

"A card baby, you write the card out when you come to the cafe okay?"

"Ok, I want to learn how to write my brother's names too."

"So it's from all of you?"

"Yes daddy, for all of us."

"I will write their names on paper and you can practice them at kindy okay?"

"Graze daddy."

He will get a nice bottle of wine and some change I think, I have cards somewhere and Gianni has gift bags we can use.

We went out and Gianni smiled as Lukas joined grandad on the sofa.

"He asked me about it earlier, he wants a discount." he giggled.

"Why didn't you get it out of the safe for him?"

"He wanted you to do it."

I knew that.

Breakfast was great as usual and the kids had a list of things to do today, first off they are going to talk to Nina then they are going to spend the rest of the day at their warehouse. I hope Angelo does come back soon we all miss him. I dressed Lukas for school and he was being dropped off by gran and grandad today once again and Gianni and I will pick him up. I pushed his twenty dollars into my wallet and he can help me wrap the gift when he gets to the cafe. Babies and boys were driven to work and I had a thought I ran past the boys.

"Why don't you set up the studio in the Cartasso apartment, the furniture can be shoved into the second bedroom and the lighting is much better also."

"Already done Antonio, all we have to do is get the two boys from school to set up the new computer," Leon said.

"Good." I'll shut up then.

I was looking at my phone and resisting opening the photos, maybe I can do it in the bathroom later on. We settled the kids by the back door and when Alice arrives she will give them juice or milk but in the meantime, they are content to yell and scream at the workers and to talk to Bianca who was making up some big displays for an order.

"Do you need a hand?"

"No thank you Antonio, there are only the two to be made so far."

I left her to it and began my chores, I had lost the crutch and was walking with the boot on. I checked my doctor's appointment and confirmed it was for Monday our day off.

Gianni did the coolers and then he checked emails, he printed off Gino's ones and gave them to the boys they can hand them over when they go upstairs for their morning meeting.

Maxie and Tommaso were talking to Elio who was left in charge because he has a lot of experience, I think they are telling him they can't come in anymore he didn't seem too fussed about it and Angelo has several casuals on his books.

They scooted off and the boys went upstairs as soon as Iris and Alice arrived. Iris said another good morning then went to man the wine counter Gianni made us a coffee and sat out the front with me.

"There are cartons to do baby."

"In a minute Antonio, I need a coffee do you want a cake?"

"Will you share it with me?"

"Of course I will." He picked out one and bought it over with two spoons.

"What wine will we give grandad, Gianni?"

"A box Antonio, we will give him a box of the best ones."

"Okay, can I say something about Lukas's gift?"

"Yes, Antonio I know already what you are saying. Lukas wants to separate the gifts. He will give grandad a good bottle of wine from him and his brothers, we will give him the carton." He grinned.

"Thank you." I smiled.

"Not so bad thinking from this gypsy man."

"Your the best." I kissed him.

He left and I was alone at last, so I played with my phone then opened the photos. I had to zoom in to read the old scriptwriting, but it was the last will of Contessa Sofia D'Corsico (Genoa) it was dated eighteenth September nineteen forty-four.

It was all legal jargon, but I read it word for word then when I looked at page two it sort of spoilt the old script by turning it into old typewriter lettering. It was easier to read as I continued.

I leave all my worldly goods, titles, property, land, jewelry, and money to my only daughter Maria D'Corsico of Genoa, and I want her to know she was loved deeply by both her father the Count and myself.

There were a series of addresses numbers and letters, I deemed these to be the passwords or account numbers to her bank?

The next page was a detailed listing of jewelry and a few other accounts. It said very little else and the next three pages were all legal terms once again. The last page was a letter from Roberto, it stated that Maria D'Corsico needs to sign the will and a witness must sign also. He went on and said he had been in touch with the Vatican bank and the account is current still and he doesn't see any problems. The next was another document she had to sign to allow Roberto to access the accounts and the safety deposit box. There were big red wax stamps with a ribbon attached and the signatures of three witnesses. I put it down and thought about it, what the hell is this all about and why? I couldn't ask Roberto it's like getting blood out of a stone with him.

The next thing I did was a search for Contessa Sofia D'Corsico there's got to be something on the internet.

Gianni nudged me.

"Do you think you are doing some work today Antonio, what are you reading?"

"Just some junk really husband." I hated lying to him.

"Looking at the nudo twinkles I think."

"No, of course I'm not, what do you want me to do?" I closed my phone.

"Nothing Antonio just sit and watch your little videos, I will watch you." He smirked.

I looked around and the boys were coming out the door with wine, the market came alive once more, and I stretched my leg it had gone to sleep. I must have been reading this for ages, it was difficult because of the old writing and much of it was Italian and Latin. My senses returned and my stomach grumbled.

The boys had filled their wine glasses and passed one to me and they were asking if they could come to the doctors with me on Tuesday. I said it was just a formality but I also know I had to keep the boot close by in case my leg got sore or tired. I have no feeling in it anymore the pain has disappeared but I knew it was still lurking in the background, any knock will bring it back. I was also thinking I must print off the photos and delete them from my phone, I have no idea where I will store them but inquisitive husbands have a habit of going through it if I leave my phone lying about.

I know Gianni does this because he has to know everything, and he also wants to look through the photos of his babies now and then not to mention the porn videos the boys made of me, sometimes when I am feeding off him he likes to watch them.

Angie and Francisco arrived and were offered wine, they had been to see her cousins today, and she said she won't go back again they were almost raping her boyfriend with their eyes and gestures. They even said they will come and visit this amazing village where she lives. I think Angie is going to drop them because she said they forgot to get her address in all the madness. I laughed at her face and said she should start up a dating service for all the single men in the village.

"Believe me, there are a lot of shenanigans going on in the background there, I don't think the village boys are missing out on too much." She grinned.

She was also saying they both were homesick and might fly back early. I understood what she was trying to say completely, so I told her anything she does is fine with us. They booked their return flights for Monday five days earlier than planned. She still has the Italian club to show her man off and I suspect this is all about showing her ex-husbands family that she is madly in love again and had moved on.

Gianni didn't have wine but Iris did, she was looking at the format for her new show and Leon was saying when the schoolboys set up the computer they will be able to record one of Carlos's songs with her dancing in the rear. I was suspicious because as Carlos sat there he was also memorizing a new song, I wonder.

We picked Lucas up and he was full of information, he had learned how to write his brother's names and he helped me in the backroom to wrap the present up. He wanted ribbons and a bit of glitter stuff so I went to the florist shop and grabbed some. The babies were asleep it had been a big day for them and I believe tomorrow Gino is bringing Sam in to sit with them to watch the builders.

The present looked so nice and he sat and scribbled a card for grandad, he had drawn a love heart and some glitter stars on it for that personal look. Gianni had grabbed a carton of wine and we slipped a card from the family into it, but Lukas held onto his tightly, he wasn't letting it out of his sight. The van was crowded on the way home and after we settled the kids down the boys took Iris into the Cartasso apartment to show her what they had been doing.

She okayed the plans and came back a little red-faced she had caught Francisco changing in the bedroom.

"His ass is awesome Antonio." She whispered so Carlos couldn't hear.

"I know we all saw it at the farmhouse." I grinned.

"Well, it was nice to refresh the memory."

It wasn't until the next day I had the chance to read up on my Contessa, Gianni had to go to a meeting upstairs so I sat and searched, To my surprise, I came across a Wikipedia write-up on the family.

Contessa and Count D'Corsico were reported to be linked to the Milan mafia. They were part of an agreement with the USA and Vatican resistance. The mafia was bought in for their capabilities to access illegal black market food items to help feed the poor and oppressed, some who had been in hiding had been starved because the German military took everything for their army.

They also, with the Vatican's aid helped many Italian Jews and Christians escape through the Swiss mountains during the German occupation. Her husband was shot and killed in an altercation and she escaped to the wine region where she gave birth to their only daughter, named Maria. They were a much loved and respected old family in Italy but were said to be mafia related. Her biggest mistake was to go back into Roma leaving her young daughter in the hands of a peasant couple. She was captured by the Nazis and put to death by firing squad just days before Italy was liberated. It talked about the D'Corsico chateau and their wealth then went on about the many many people they had saved, with the help of some Vatican cardinals who themselves were persecuted. Many were shot or disappeared during the occupation. They were both posthumously given the order of Savoy for their part in the war. It was a sad story to read and I felt so depressed after I finished the long write-up. I will have to read it several times before I understand at all.

I have no idea who this person was living here, but I did think it was maybe Sofia's daughter. The will is confusing me and why would she want it after all these years, so many questions?

I also allowed myself to think she might be my gran, I did see her and Francisco have a small discussion at her place that day. I never found out what that was all about. I couldn't say a thing to gran she would have kittens if I knew anything personal about her, and I did think I would ask her what her family name was, just in passing, I was never interested before, but I am now.

We were all dressed up and I was excited to see Conner and Brent again and their friend Dianna I heard she will bring her husband and babies along and I warned the ladies there will be extra kids Saturday night. They will organize some of the younger girls to babysit them, under supervision of course.

Brent had told me he told Dianna it was casual wear and not to worry about dressing up, she couldn't be that stupid, can she?

We did the same as we have always done we walked up the street with our caravan of friends, I had the pleasure of carrying Sam tonight he was all talk and loved the pretty lights that blinked outside the bars that littered the street now, there seems to be more every time we pass by.

When we arrived I turned to see if everyone was behind me and he was taken off my shoulders and disappeared into a throng of ladies. My babies were given the same treatment but Lukas wasn't going to be in it, because he had a present for grandad. He ran through the ladies saying "No No No."

Then headed for our table where gran held her arms out, he dodged her also and fell into grandad's arms, he was picked up and the big bag was placed on the table, not so lightly either. Grandad opened his present and made a big fuss over it, Lukas smiled from ear to ear as he read the card. He received loads of hugs and kisses, and for a moment it was just him and grandad in the room.

I could hear crying so I went to find the culprit, Luca was being resistant and when he saw me he screamed "Dada dada"

I took him and apologized to the ladies then went back to the table to sit with my family. As soon as I sat down he was onto grandad and was kissing him. I had thought they wouldn't notice, but Lukas must have told them. Leon and Gianni had rescued the others and they also wanted to wish him a happy birthday. It never ceases to amaze me how they work together and how much they understand. I took many photos of the four of them with Grandad and Lukas's smiles were just the best.

Gianni said he had a box of wine for him from us and he will bring it over tomorrow, which is his real birthday.

As this was happening Anna and Gino had stopped dancing and had rescued Sam, Anna looked nice tonight and to be frank, the look suited her and she was more relaxed.

Gianni helped me shove the two big tables together and then he went to find us a drink, I had little Antonio on my knees and gran had Gianni, Luka wanted his poppy still, he hasn't finished kissing him. Lukas ran off to the playroom with some of his mates who had been waiting for him to arrive and iris was waiting for Sabine's grand entrance if she ever turns up. No loafers for her tonight just a nice pair of silver strap shoes and as usual she looked perfect.

Carlos and Leon were dancing up a storm with Tommaso and Maxie, I saw two dear friends and went to say hello, Angelo and Bella had flown in this morning they looked so good together.

"Did you get it all done?'

"Yes Antonio, they won't look back and they only needed a good leg up, there was nothing wrong with the food but the restaurant needed an upgrade."

"And Bella what are you going to do?" She blushed and said.

"Work for Angelo, maybe get a life of my own for a change." She didn't elaborate and I couldn't wait to hear all the gossip from her especially about Angelos's hidden talents if you know what I mean.

I introduced them to Francisco as he and Angie passed by, and they spoke to each other in Italian, I didn't know Angelo spoke it so fluently. Angie, who looked divine, waved to some people, and as she swept her boyfriend onto the floor I noticed the people were glaring at her, maybe her ex-in-laws.

I heard clapping and turned to see Conner and Brent arrived with the kids and Dianna and her husband Marty with their two kids.

"I will catch you later." I walked over and greeted them then escorted them to the table. Di looked amazing she had a sort of pure white Sophia Loren number on It reminded me of the gold dress she wore in Houseboat, every curve was on show and that diamond necklace was beautiful around her throat. I could tell she had been a top-class supermodel, everything about her screamed class and perfection.

I winked at Brent he laughed and said.

"She knows me so well, I think I lost this round."

They sat while Conner showed Marty how to get the wine and to order food I think he was impressed. The renovations haven't started yet but hopefully, it will only be closed for a week, maybe two.

They came back and greeted everyone I introduced them to gran and grandad then we saluted grandad for his birthday.

I had the pleasure of having Conner sit with me, grandad was on my other side, but when Gianni came back from talking to Angelo he bumped Conner's chair so violently he shifted over towards Brent and Gianni pushed his chair in. I couldn't stop laughing at Conner's face he doesn't know Italian etiquette yet, husbands sit with their husbands.

"That's better." Gianni smiled at me.

"Sure is husband." I could hear Brent and Di laughing into their drinks.

It was all in fun and they gave as much as we did that is our way, that is the Italian.

The little ones were all taken into the nursery room where they can do face painting and play in the ball pit or jump in the small castle, I noticed many new toys had appeared tonight, the ladies must have gone shopping.

I was swept up alongside Conner and Brent, Di and Marty followed for a spin around the dance floor, the ladies collective were already making her Melbourne cup outfit in their heads, they approved. I spied Sabine and Tony arrive she did look amazing but when she stopped and posed there were no eyes on her they were all on Di and Conner. She looked her up and down as she danced by then she turned on her heels and headed for the table, I could see Iris pissing herself laughing.

"Ladies and gentlemen if you can make your ways to your tables we have a small event for you." Leon was on the mike, I think Conner is going to sing.

"As you know the Iris Wilson radio show has many celebrities on offer and one who had the best selling album on the Iris hit list, is going to give you a sample of his new album tonight. Please give the biggest hand to my Carlos." I laughed because they were expecting Conner.

We walked back and passed iris on the way, she rolled her eyes and had her bright pink loafers on, she stood by the organ behind Carlos. Carlos went into the new song he is recording, it wasn't just any old song it was one of Conners from his new album, we had heard it when we visited a few weeks ago, it's due for release Monday. Carlos was destroying it and Conner couldn't stop laughing and everyone was laughing as Iris danced behind him with a blank face, it was comical but I guess that's the look they are going with.

"He hasn't even got the words right," Conner said.

"Well, he only heard it once, so I guess they wrote their own."

"They aren't serious about releasing it are they?"

"Only for their fans Conner, it does no harm," Gianni said.

"It will make my album look even better, well done boys."

The crowd was roaring with laughter and when he finished they wanted more, but Leon put a stop to it.

"My Carlos's new album will be out for sale Monday morning in conjunction with Rick Conners little cd. Buy both and you can judge that my Carlos is the best singer, be prepared for his concerts at the casino very soon." The laughter lasted until they came back to the table.

Di had tears in her eyes and Sabine looked on with pursed lips. Brent couldn't help himself he grabbed Conner and kissed him then they disappeared onto the dance floor. We ate when we were hungry and Francisco the boys, and Gianni started the gypsy dancing, Conner kept up as Brent and myself fooled around much to everyone's delight. Francisco was the sexiest dancer I have seen in a long time and Angie's cousins let him know that when they started throwing roses at him.

"I had better get him back home as soon as possible, this doesn't happen there, bloody sex-starved relatives, who needs them," Angie was jealous but I knew she didn't need to be, he only has eyes for her, I know these things.

Angelo and Bella came by the table and were talking to Conner I overheard him say his showroom will be ready in a couple of weeks but he will try and call into the restaurant. Angelo spent five minutes telling him he appreciated the night he did sing, but if it's too much he should just concentrate on his showroom, it should bring more traffic into the area. I think Conner was impressed with our little Angelo he did give him the once over. Gianni had gone to get our food and grandad had gone to play cards with Stavros and his mates so Bella sat next to me.

"How is it going?"

"My parents love him, from the moment I introduced him they were all over him like a rash."

"But how is it going with you?"

"I like him Antonio, but it's the history I don't care for, I'm not very good with guys that have a past."

"His past is just that, his past. And anyway what would your friends know, he never dated them let alone slept with any of them. I think you may have found yourself a little gem Bella, embrace it."

"Maybe your right it's just...."

"Do you drive?" I interrupted.

"Yes, Antonio."

"Well, when you drive do you look more out of the front windscreen than the rear vision mirror?"

"The windscreen of course."

"Well there's your answer, spend very little time on the past and heaps of time on the future look more out of the windscreen." I smiled, she blushed.

"I am being silly aren't I?"

"Maybe not so silly Bella, just a bit cautious that's all, from what I have seen of Angelo's love life it was mostly unwanted attention, and he dealt with it beautifully, he is a good-looking young man you know. Please don't ever think your second best because it takes a real woman to enthrall a man in such a short time, the fact he followed you to Sydney says volumes."

"Secretly Antonio I'm head over heels in love with him, but I am terrified he will hurt me."

"Never going to happen my lovely, trust me and trust him. He's found what he should have found a few years ago, his impossible love." She formed a tear in her eyes and looked at Angelo who was still talking to Conner.

"Hey gorgeous, my feet are itching for a dance."

"Coming right up my very beautiful girlfriend." He fell over me to help her up, he's such a gentleman, then I heard it.

"Gino, get your ass up here," Anna yelled at Gino who fell over Conner to go dance with his wife, I couldn't stop laughing as Tony pulled Sabine's chair out and she took his hand, now there's refinement at its best.

Gianni placed a large plate of food in front of me.

"I can't eat all that."

"We can share." He smiled and winked. I guess I'm feeding my husband tonight. I watched Bella and Angelo dance and there were a few claps when he kissed her with wild abandon, stopping their dance for a moment. I looked at Stavros's table they were all slapping hands and he was the proudest grandad here tonight, I felt a tear in my eyes.

There will be one more dance with my husband and then I have to go check on gran.

"Gran which cake would you like tonight?"

"The strawberry tart one Antonio, just a little one grazie."

I went to do that most welcomed chore but before I left I counted up the kids. I found my four, one had met up with some kindy kids, and the other three were in the bouncing castle laughing their heads off, they will sleep well tonight. Conner and Marty were watching their babies that were also rolling around in the ball pit.

I went to get gran her strawberry tart, it wasn't small they were quite large tonight, but I thought if she protested I would share it with her so I grabbed an extra plate.

"Is this too big, it's the smallest I could find?"

"Sit with me and I will cut it in half Antonio." I did that chore gladly, I like sharing I eat less doing that. We watched the kids play then they got tired of it and went to annoy their big brother who was now on the computer game. He started showing them how to play but I don't think they are ready for that yet.

"We should settle them down Antonio, they need their sleep."

"I will take them into the quiet room soon gran."

"Do not interfere Antonio."

"I won't, you can do it then."

"No, do not interfere in my life." I looked at her with shock on my face.

"What the hell are you talking about?"

"I know you read it, and I am asking for you not to interfere in this old woman's business."

How the fuck does she know that?

"How did you know?"

"It had a small seal at the opening and it was broken when Francisco looked at it when he was packing."

"I didn't mean to pry gran, I didn't know it had anything to do with you."

"Well, it does Antonio, your need to know everything will get you in trouble one day. I know instantly it was you that interfered with the document."

"I am sorry gran, I won't mention it again then. But it is intriguing gran, a contessa in the family why don't I know these things?"

"Because it is none of your business, my mother was the hero I am but a poor old nona, the document will put something right so they can rest in peace, so there is no need for you to make it your business." She's talking in riddles.

"One question nona?"

"Just one."

"Does that mean you are now the Contessa D'Corsico?"

"I am your nona first in line, but yes I am also the Contessa."

"So your rich then?"

"That is two questions Antonio, you will never speak of this to anyone, it is too dangerous for me if it gets out. Speak nothing of this again, not even your nono knows, may God forgive me."

"I won't gran, I do love you so much and I worry that's all."

"My mama and papa were wealthy Antonio, but the war depleted their wealth very much, I have my own money and it is all my hard work. Roberto is never to be told you know, promise me on your children's lives." She looked at me and I could see the tears, something is wrong I have to fix this for her.

"I promise gran, but I still want to help if I can."

"Roberto is doing that for me, and when a wrong is righted, I will tell you everything. It is very painful for me to go back into history Antonio, it's something I had left behind in Italy many years ago, but my heart attack is telling me I have to deal with it sooner rather than later."

She then wanted a hug then we ate in silence, I had so many questions but she has silenced me, my children's lives depended on it.

The night got late, and the babies were all asleep even Lukas couldn't keep his eyes open, I sat at the table with Gianni and felt so depressed and guilty for even looking at the will. He knew something was up and when gran got a headache, she and granddad were the first to leave the club. I gave her an extra hug and wanted so much to sit and talk with her I am now very worried.

We settled the kids and said our goodnights to everyone. I had spoken to Conner about his showroom and he winked at me and said.

"I'm not the only singer in town Antonio, If he would let me do it, I can send a few good budding artists his way, they need a leg up in the industry. Leave it to me." He smiled.

He was talking about Angelo's restaurant, I think our Rick Conners has a little crush on our friend.

When we got outside they were met by a big van and two security guards and we walked back to our apartment dropping our friends on the way.
