Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband (Aria and Alessandro) novel Chapter 175

Chapter 175 Payback 

#Finished 

Mia stood outside Alessandro’s home office, feeling conflicted. It had been an hour, and he still hadn’t come out of the room. Vittoria had just left, and Mia thought about telling Alessandro. The children had returned home, and she had asked them to stay in their room. Seeing their mother’s tense expression, Gia and Maximo understood something serious was happening, so they didn’t ask any questions and agreed to obey their mother. Mia instructed the head maid to send some refreshments–juices, and snacks–for the 

children. 

As she stood there, contemplating her next move, Mia hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to knock on the door and talk to Alessandro. Just as she raised her hand to knock, her phone vibrated in her hand. It was on silent mode, and Mia lifted it to see who was calling. It was Emily. 

She sighed and decided to answer the call before talking to Alessandro. 

“Emily! Hi, how are you?” Mia said, trying to keep her voice soft, steady, and smooth in contrast to the stress she was feeling at that moment. 

“Mia! I’ve sent some designs to you. Have you checked them?” Emily asked with urgency in her tone. 

Mia hissed under her breath–she had completely forgotten to check them with everything happening around her. 

“I’m sorry, Emily,” she said, rubbing her forehead. “Can I check them tomorrow and get back to you?” she asked, biting her lip in hesitation. 

Emily was handling all the business in Paris alone while Mia was managing things in Italy. Mia had been thinking about offering Emily a partnership rather than having her work as Mia’s assistant. 

“Oh no, Mia, it’s urgent. I need your approval right now; I have a meeting with a potential client in an hour,” Emily said anxiously. 

Mia swallowed, trying to think of a solution. She couldn’t share what was happening in her family; it was a private matter. 

“Emily, go for it. I trust your decisions,” she said with confidence in her best friend. 

“Are you sure?” Emily’s hesitant voice reflected her nervousness. 

“Of course! You’ve been working with me for so long and know me well. I know you can close this deal Mia encouraged Emily, and she heard a loud exhale from Emily’s side. 

“Don’t worry, you’ll nail it,” Mia reassured Emily further. 

“Alright,” Emily said with determination. “I’ll try my best not to disappoint you,” she added playfully. 

“You better, Mia chuckled in a hushed tone. 

I’ll call you later. I have a lot of work to do before the meeting.” Emily said and was about to hang up when Mia’s voice stopped her, “Emily!” 

“Yes?” Emily replied in a tone reflecting her confusion. 

“All the best, and don’t stress yourself. It’s just a deal,” Mia smiled, trying to comfort her friend.

Emily sighed in relaxation, her relief sounded through the phone. “Thanks, babe. I needed you here so badly,” she said. “I miss you.” 

“I miss you too!” Mia murmured as mixed emotions touched her heart. 

Emily had been more than a friend; she was like a sister who had stood by her through every difficult situation. Once everything settled down, Mia planned to call Emily to Florence and consider what to do about her business in Paris–perhaps hiring someone capable to take over. 

“Bye, boss. Gotta go!” Emily’s voice was hurried as she hung up. 

Mia shook her head and glanced again at Alessandro’s closed office door. She was about to knock and just as her hand reached the door, it flung open. It was as if Alessandro had read her mind; he appeared on the other side. His face remained serious and unreadable, without any expression.
