Mia understood everything suddenly, reading between the unspoken lines. Someone had plotted to murder Alessandro. She felt grateful that Adam had come and delayed their departure from the
restaurant. If they had left on time, they would have been in the car and… Her heart sank with the ominous realization.
Was this attempt to kill also aimed at her and the kids, just because they were with Alessandro? The thought sent a shiver down her spine. Her mind raced with fear and doubt. Were her kids truly safe with the mafia king, who lived under the constant threat of guns and bombs, surrounded by so many enemies, both hidden and open?
Emily and Adam’s words started revolving in her head, making her question everything again. Had she made a mistake choosing to live with Alessandro? Could she subject her children to this dangerous life?
They waited inside the restaurant, surrounded by Alessandro’s high–end security.
The police had also arrived swiftly, and trailing them was a gathering crowd of media, eager to capture the unfolding events and ensure that their channel or tabloid would be the first to publish and broadcast the highlights.
Despite the commotion outside, Alessandro remained focused on ensuring Mia and the kids were shielded from the public eye. He was adamant about avoiding media attention that could potentially expose them to his enemies. Alessandro quickly arranged for another car to safely escort Emily, Mia, and the children home.
Lucas, his trusted right–hand man, appeared promptly with the car. Alessandro helped Gia and Maximo into the vehicle, securing their seat belts himself. Gia looked up at him with concern evident in her small innocent eyes.
“Daddy, are you not coming home?” she asked softly.
Alessandro’s voice carried a hint of remorse as he replied, “No, sweetheart. Daddy has some work to do.. I’m sorry I can’t keep my promise for tonight.”
“It’s okay, Daddy. Don’t feel sad. I will wait for you.” Gia reassured him with a smile.
Alessandro kissed her forehead gently. “Don’t stay up late, Princess, okay?” Gia nodded in understanding.
Alessandro then turned to Maximo, placing a kiss on his forehead as well.
“Buddy, you have to take care of Mommy and Gia while I’m away, okay?” Alessandro said seriously,
Maximo nodded solemnly. “Yes, Daddy. I will take care of Gia and Morn
Alessandro managed a small, wry smile as he turned to Mia. Her expression betrayed her worry, and he could see the nervousness in her eyes.
Don’t worry. You all are safe, and I will always protect you, no matter what,” Alessandro vowed quietly, assuring her.
“Take care,” Mia whispered as Alessandro turned to leave.
When he glanced back briefly, his face was unreadable He nodded in acknowledgment before heading

Alessandro watched with a mixture of relief and lingering nervousness as the car carrying Mia and the kids departed safely. He kept staring at the car until it faded from his view. His heart was still pounding at the thought of what could have happened if they had been inside the car during the blast.
Despite his highly efficient security team, he couldn’t fathom how such an incident could occur under his watch. A sense of foreboding gripped him, a feeling that something was terribly wrong. How had it happened, despite all the precautions? It was hard for him to believe, and he knew he needed answers immediately.
“How the fuck did this happen, Micah? Who is behind it?” Alessandro growled with anger, his voice tight with tension as they hurried towards the spot of the incident.
“I’m shocked too, boss. I can’t believe someone among us could be a traitor, Micah replied nervously.
“Find out immediately. Everyone involved in this blast will pay, one way or another, Alessandro threatened menacingly. “Is that clear?*
“Yes, boss,” Micah nodded, matching Alessandro’s brisk pace as they hurried to the parking lot. There, they were met with the aftermath of destruction: Alessandro’s limousine was burnt and mangled, with surrounding cars and debris also damaged by the blast
“What about Sam?” Alessandro asked, his eyes scanning the area for any clues.
“Boss, he died in the blast. He was inside the car,” Micah informed him solemnly.
“Fuck!” Alessandro cursed furiously, a mix of frustration and grief washing over him as he mourned the loss of his loyal driver.
“Make sure his family gets compensation and try to recover his body.” Alessandro said, his voice tight with sorrow as he glanced at the burned–out car. The chances of recovering Sam’s body after such a powerful blast were slim. “He deserves a proper funeral. Provide everything his family needs for it, he ordered, his tone decisive as he surveyed the area, taking in every detail.
His head throbbed with conflicting thoughts, but in that moment, Alessandro made a crucial decision. and the kids were now on the radar if he remained in their lives. He couldn’t risk putting them in danger just because he selfishly wanted them near him. His life was fraught with peril, and living with him meant walking a dangerous path. If they stayed with him, they would never have the chance to live freely and enjoy a normal life.
