Betrothed To The Mafia Lord novel Chapter 263

Luca’s POV

“Bunny?” I called out and watched as she glanced up at me instantly, blinking up at me.

“James is going to be coming over to the house tonight.” I informed her because I wanted her to know beforehand, to avoid her being taken off guard when she’d set her eyes on him – and also because I wanted her to be comfortable with it.

“Oh, he is?” She asked after a fleeting second and I nodded my head a little.

“Uh, that’s great. Is he coming with someone else?” She asked after a fleeting moment and I started to shake my head in response. “No, bunny. He’s going to come straight from the office.”

“Is it a meeting between the both of you?” She asked as she kept on peering up at me curiously and I gave a slow nod of my head.

“Yes, bunny. It’s like a meeting, I have something important to discuss with him, and then he’d be staying back for dinner once we’d be done with the whole work related thing.

“Ohhh.” She murmured slowly and I nodded once before hastily pushing myself to my feet, just as Sofia was already starting to sit up. I held my hand out to her and she placed her hand in it, allowing me to tug her up. It was already starting to get really later than I had planned we’d spend outside here, which is why we’d have to head back to the house right now – at least, even if we wanted to lie directly beneath the stars, then we were going to have to do it from our balcony.

Another reason as to why we were heading back home was because of James who was going to be here anytime soon. I didn’t want to keep him waiting one but because I was getting pretty restless each thing anything relating to Armsbi makes it’s way into my head.

“You’d carry it back home for me, right?” Sofia started to say beside me and I started to nod my head as soon as I realized what she meant and what she was referring to.

“Of course, bunny.” I said to her as I reached for her leg and picked the teddy which was positioned beside her feet, holding it up with one hand as I took her hand in mine and started to make my way back through the road we came from.

I couldn’t deny the fact that I was a little bit troubled, and the reason being my brother, Armani and my wife, Sofia. I knew that I hadn't told her a thing about him, which is completely unfair to her because she tells me a whole lot of things about herself, and her family, and I knew damn well that I do not do the same, when I was actually supposed to. The only thing I was able to tell her about him was that he was alive, and that was it.

But then, back then, I wasn’t really sure or a thing about him, which was why the words got stock in my head and I decided to distract her from asking me one questions by touching her body in that particular spot.

But now, I don’t really think I have that much of an escude because now I was a lot sure that he was doing perfectly alright. I just know that I might not have been thus bothered and disturbed about the whole thing if it wasn’t for the fact that he was going to be coming back home really soon. I couldn’t ask him to stay back there because I still needed to tell my wife about him, before he’d show his face here – because it doesn’t even sound right to me to begin with, coupled with the fact that I have genuinely missed him so much.
