Before Vittorio said those words, Cristian thought that the matter between him and Magdalena was so simple that he could solve it with a few words.
Therefore, he did not give the matter any importance.
Once it was settled, everything went back to normal as usual.
But now, because of Vittorio's words, Cristian felt that the plans he had arranged had been messed up in advance.
It was like a game of chess. He had clearly arranged his pieces and suddenly a wild animal came along and overturned his board. All his efforts were in vain.
Thinking about this, Cristian's face became very serious. He looked at Vittorio as if he were looking at a dead man.
Cristian's coldness made Vittorio take two steps back and cough slightly.
-Cristian, it's really not my fault. You didn't even tell me what happened, did you?
And-when I called your assistant, she didn't answer the phone. I almost called her a thousand times, and I thought she was angry because she knew?
Cristian's tone was very low.
-Who asked you to mind my business?
Do you really have nothing to do?
Vittorio took a few more steps back, -No, I'm a little busy, I was just passing by.
Well, since I've already told you what happened, I'm leaving.
Not caring about Cristian's reaction, Vittorio turned around and began to run.
After running for a long distance, Vittorio looked back, covering his chest. He was relieved to see Cristian heading toward the garage.
He hoped he would not screw it up this time. He really should kill himself if the two of them couldn't be together because of him.

Serena walked the streets for a long time. When she realized how late it was, she decided to go home.
So she took a cab. When she got out of the car, she heard a cold male voice from the darkness to her left.
-Where have you been?
The cold voice made Serena wince and dropped the keys from her hand with a startled cry.
She was thinking about something, there was no light around, and the cab had left as soon as she got out .
.
Serena looked toward the source of the sound.
There was a small flame in the darkness. And would the familiar voice she had just heard have been Cristian's, if she had heard it correctly?
Thinking of Cristian, it came naturally to Serena what he had gone to discuss the engagement tonight.
After losing the whole night, Serena had had enough of this feeling. She tried to calm herself, then bent down to look for the keys she had just dropped.
But someone else was quicker than her and grabbed her keys.
-Why don't you answer me?
Serena froze.
In the dim moonlight, Serena took the keys in her hand, saying, -Thanks, I just went out with friends.
The keys were taken from him. Her soft fingers brushed his palm unknowingly.
For a moment, Cristian did not know what she was thinking, but he wanted to take her hand and hold it.
But when he froze, Serena had already taken the key and opened the door.
Cristian looked at her in silence, put out the cigarette in his hand, and followed her inside.
After a few steps, Serena realized he was following her and stopped.
-Why?
-It's too dark. I'll walk you upstairs.
Serena did not know how to answer him.
