The Mafia King's Unknown Doctor Wife novel Chapter 333

"Right?" Aria agreed with a laugh. "You could always see the west coast—maybe visit LA or just the California beaches? Or would going international be more romantic for you and your man?"

Elena wasn't sure. She had figured she'd at least visit her biological mother and step-father, but did she want to live with them? Did Max have friends in other states he'd want to visit?

As she joked with Aria, Elena couldn't decide what to do. The future seemed far too uncertain and far away to come up with any concrete plan.

Just as Aria hugged Elena goodbye, the front door opened up as Massimo returned home.

Elena noticed how neither Aria nor Massimo looked at each other. It seemed that their divorce had destroyed whatever relationship the two used to have.

"Good evening, Massimo," Elena greeted him.

Massimo nodded. He glanced outside and waited until Aria's ride—driven by one of her latest flings, no doubt—drove away.

"Your friend was here?" he asked, his voice a little colder than usual.

"Yes," Elena replied. "We went shopping and hung out here for a bit."

"I thought she moved out of state," Massimo said. "Why was she back?"

"She didn't say. I think it was probably for work."

Massimo retrieved his dinner from the kitchen. Elena decided to get another mug of tea—she really had started to prefer it over coffee, what with attending so many mafia women tea parties. She took a seat across from Massimo and decided to keep him company while he ate.

"And what does a woman like her do for work?" Massimo asked. A barely hidden snarl laid below the question he was asking.

Elena knew the two had a history, but that didn't excuse Massimo being rude to Aria. That was still her best friend!

"Aria actually graduated from the same school as me," Elena explained. "She was a chemistry and bio-engineering double major. Last I heard, she got a job at a well funded lab and tests out and makes new medications."
