Betrothed To The Mafia Lord novel Chapter 257

Luca’s POV

I made my way out of my office and shut the door firmly behind ke. I stretched a little as I started to make my way down the hall, while stretching a couple of times. My muscles were already starting to feel really stiff due to the fact that I had been inside the office for over two hours. I was glad that I had finally done this particular thing that I had wanted to do for a really long while.

I puffed out a deep breath as I made my way into the kitchen and the first thing I did was to head straight to the sink to wash my hand since it was starting to feel really sweaty. Once my hands were dried off, I made my way into the walk-in freezer and retrieved a bottle of drink for myself. I stood inside the walk in freezer and started to drink the content of the bottle as soon as I had gotten it open, and once I had already started to feel a little bit sated, I made my way towards another part of the freezer so I could grab a carton or juice for Sofia, and then I started to make my way out of the walk on closet.

“Oh, good day sir.” Matilda said as soon as she sighted me and I nodded my head at her almost immediately, pausing until I had swallowed down the content in my mouth before responding audibly.

“Matilda, how are you?” I asked, remembering that I saw her a little this morning when she had prepared breakfast for Sofia and I.

“I’m doing just fine, sir.” She responded as she started to sort out some things on the other side of the counter, and I instantly took that as my cue to leave the kitchen instantly. It didn’t matter that Matilda had been here for over three years, things always managed to feel awkward between the two of us, compared to how less tense and awkward things felt if it were to be Sarah and myself. It was probably because I’ve just never took a really huge liking to her, because I don’t think I’ve ever had an actual conversation with her, well, except the time when I just recently hired her, probably,

The shirt which I currently had on was a white colored one and I was currently starting to feel hot, even though I had sat through the air conditioner right there in my office. I puffed out a slow breath as I started to pour more of the content of my bottle into my mouth. It was an energy drink and it felt like it was starting to give me a little bit of strength even though I had literally just started to drink it, some moments ago.

I was heading towards Sofia’s door, the one exactly beside mine where she had transformed into a room for her to paint in. The door was slightly opened and I slowly pushed it open after transferring her drink to my other hand, making sure not to make a sound because I didn’t want to startle her, all I wanted to do was to see how she worked without her knowledge at first.

There were sounds coming out from the room and it made me push the door open even more as my mind started to question what it was that was happening in there. Once again, my breath managed to catch in my throat as I stared around at the whole room. It looked even more spacious than mine and I knew it was because there weren't lots of tables and huge furniture around the room, like it was in my office. The whole place looked so colorful and so beautiful that my chest started to ache a little at how perfect it looked.

The noises which I had previously faintly heard made their way to my ear and I turned my head around to listen in on what it was that I was quietly hearing from the other side of the room? Because she wasn’t in the room at the moment. The faint sounds started to echo around once again and that was when I realized that she was laughing from the bathroom…? Because that was the only room that was adjoining this one.

I watched as the door at yoruba other side of the room got pushed open just as Sofia started to make her way out of that place, and a phone was pressed against her ear really flatly as she breathed out another laugh, and this time unlike before, it didn’t sound all muffled but managed to echo around audibly. I was expecting her to notice me standing in the doorway because I wasn’t even trying to hide myself, but she only chuckled once again as she started to make her way to the other far end of the room, completely backing me.
