There was silence on the other end of the phone, and Marcello asked smilingly, -What, are you out of words?
-She's my sister's friend,‖ replied the other end after a moment of silence.
-Marcello joked, "She is young and energetic, a good candidate for an old man like you.
He understood perfectly what Matteo had said: he was helping a friend of his sister.
But Marcello enjoyed teasing Matteo.
Poor Matteo, he sighed, not wanting to explain himself further, and simply said,
-Interpret it as you will. I will leave you because the meeting is about to start.
-Well, remember you owe me a favor,‖ said Marcello. Then he hung up the phone as the smile on his face was fading.
He seemed to have become someone else.
His wife had been gone to heaven for years, and he had learned to master his emotions.
He was already able to smile cheerfully without feeling any happiness inside, that is, he was adept at hiding his true feelings. The smile only served to mask his sorrow. His joy had been buried together with his wife ....
Marcello closed his eyes and a faint smile crept onto his pale face.

Serena was surprised to hear that Anna was going to open a restaurant; she asked him with great joy,
-When it opens, I will bring Cristian there to support you.
Hearing Cristian's name, Anna became nervous and said in a low voice, -Could you come alone? Cristian... well, I'm afraid my little tent is not able to accommodate the big boss....
Serena looked at Cristian, who was taking a shower in the bathroom, and thinking of his cold face and powerful aura, laughed and said,
-I will help you control him. Don't worry.
-Serena, I don't believe you. Tell me seriously, will you bring him here?
-Of course I will bring him! The more people, the better for the opening.
Anna was speechless. She looked at her father in the room again, imagining his expression when he saw Cristian on the day of the inauguration. Finally, she compromised, saying.
-All right. By the way, you're not mad at me, are you?
