Mia's heart felt heavy as she thought about the halian don. It had been a whole week since she had last seen him. He hadn't called, nor had he replied to her texts. She didn't understand why she felt this way, especially knowing what kind of man he was. She wanted to believe he didn't care about her or the children, but his love confession kept echoing in her ears. She scolded herself for believing him, for letting his words seep into her heart. Her mafia husband was a liar, a cheater, and selfish, her mind reminded her. But her heart was conflicted, unwilling to fully accept this harsh reality. Mia sighed, running a hand through her hair. Her eyes moved to the work spread across her office table. She needed to forget about Alessandro, He was dangerous for her and her children, and he threatened her sanity. But the impact he had on Gia and Maximo lingered-they still missed him. She cursed herself for ever thinking they could all be happy together when Alessandro only brought uncertainty into their lives. Determined to distract herself, Mia focused on the work at hand. She had several big projects that needed. to be delivered on time. Taking a deep breath and exhaling sharply, she picked up a file and began making corrections on the interior layout for a new bungalow for a famous rockstar. "Mia"" Emily suddenly barged into her office, startling her. When Mia saw Emily's panicked face, she frowned. Emily looked pale, as if all the blood had drained from her face. "What's the matter, Emily?" Mia asked immediately. "Mia. Adam Emily panted, her eyes wide with fear. "What happened to Adam?" Mia asked frantically, getting up quickly as she saw Emily start to sob. "Calm down and sit here," Mia coaxed Emily, leading her to a chair. She handed Emily a glass of water, but Emily refused, shaking her head. "Okay, tell me what happened to Adam, Mia asked calmly. But in reality, her heart was filled with fear as she considered Emily's anxious state. Emily's wide eyes and trembling hands made Mia's thoughts race to something dreadful. "I was trying to call him, and his assistant replied that he wasn't available. I found it suspicious the way he avoided giving me details, Emily began, her voice shaking. "So, I went to see Adam at his hotel room." Emily took a shaky breath, her eyes welling up with tears. "When I got there, I overheard the police and his assistant talking. He's been kidnapped-for more than 24 hours," Emily spilled everything in a single breath. "What are you talking about, Emily? Adam is kidnapped?!" Mia gasped, her mind racing. Who would have kidnapped him? Her frightened thoughts led her to only one conclusion Alessandro Valentino. He had been upset with Adam, and only he had the power to make someone disappear in the blink of an eye. As the mightiest Italian don, he was capable of doing the unimaginable. Her heart suddenly filled with anger as the cured herself, Adam was in grave trouble because of her. "I know where he could be, Mia muttered with determination as she grabbed her car keys and purse and rushed to the door. Mia got into her car and drove straight to Alesandro's apartment. The streets blurred as the sped through the city. Within minutes, she reached his apartment, and to her relief, Alessandro was there, just about tra leave for work. He was surprised to see Mia unannounced at hus doorstep. "Alessandro Valentino Mia growled angrily. "What do you think of yourself? Alessandro furrowed his brows in confusion, his deep blue eyes drinking in Mia's presence. It had been a week since he last saw her, and only he knew how he had managed to endure her absence. "What's wrong, dolcezza? he asked, tilting his head as he observed the love of his life stomping toward him, her face red and eyes blazing with anger "Don't try to act innocent. I know you've done it, Mia shouted in his face "What have I done?" he asked, clueless "You kidnapped Adam Mia accused, her throat tightening as the thought about the movie star. She hoped In her heart that Adam was alright and nothing had happened to him. "Where is he? How is he? Did you.. do you." She panted, breathing heavily. Her heart almost stopped at the thought of Alesandro killing Adam because he was associated with her. "Adam Whitmore?!" Alessandro muttered, his eyes narrowing at the mention of the movie star. "What about him?" "He's been missing for a day now Mia glowered, her chest heaving with the intensity of her anger. Alessandro's lips parted in realization. "Angelo mio, I didn't do anything to him, I swear to your he vowed earnestly But Mia refused to believe him as she glared at the Italian don with disdain. "Don't lie. I know you've done it. Alessandro. I swear if anything happened to Adam, I won't forgive you. Never," she screamed with rage, her voice trembling with emotion. "Mia!" Alessandro sighed, looking at her helplessly. His expression was one of broken and hurt. "Please trust me. I haven't kidnapped Adam. Did he mean so much to you that you would accuse me withou any proof?" His voice was filled with disbelief and pain. "I know what you're capable of, Alessandro Valentino. And who else could do it? You had a problem with him, and everyone knows how you deal with your problems," Mia mocked with bitterness and hatred. "I am warning you, Adam should return before the day ends or you won't ever see my face," Mia threatened, making the Italian don flinch. Alessandro remained silent, his expression unreadable Mia stared at him for a long moment before turning on her heel and leaving abruptly. As she sat inside her car, her heart weighed down with the thought of something terrible happening to Adam. In her mind, she prayed fervently that her suspicions were wrong and Alessandro was not behind all this. Yet, every sign pointed to no one else but the mafia king being involved.
