Mafia Kings: Valentino: Chapter 91

I was overjoyed after talking to Alessandra.

I did my best to contain myself during dinner with Don Vicari and the old lady. However, Isabella must have noticed I was in a better mood because she kept glancing over at me.

After dinner, I had to take a walk outside because I was so excited.

I’m going to see Cat tomorrow!

Just as I was about to enter the gardens, I heard a woman’s voice behind me.

“Valentino?”

I looked around to see Isabella walking towards me.

Just her – no Ludavica.

“What’re you doing out here?” I asked.

“Looking for you.”

“Better be careful,” I joked. “Your dad will send in the stormtroopers if he sees us together.”

She frowned. “Nazi stormtroopers?”

I’d meant Star Wars – but whatever.

“Yeah. Those.”

“Now that we’re about to be married in two days,” she said, “I think everybody’s a bit more relaxed.”

Now that we’re about to be married in two days.

Even in the hot summer air, the words still sent a chill down my spine.

They were about the only thing that could puncture my happiness about Cat.

“…yeah…” I muttered.

“Can we take a walk?” she asked as she gestured towards the gardens.

I looked around. “Where’s Ludavica?”

“She’s inside. I wanted to talk to you privately.”
