Chapter 286

Chapter 286

Stephanie could tell they were almost home, and she had a feeling there might be a big scene waiting for her.

Even though everything had been fine in Fiorenza while she was in Long Harbor, she was still nervous about facing Lottie.

Sebastian noticed how tense she was and chuckled lightly. “What’s wrong? Nervous?”

Stephanie quickly turned her head and huffed. “N–Not at all.”

The car soon reached the top of the hill, and the first thing Stephanie saw was the wide, open horse stable.

Not far away, a grand castle stood tall, almost touching the sky. Just looking at it was awe–inspiring.

That was the Giovanni residence. The Giovanni family’s power in Fiorenza was as imposing as the castle itself–totally in control.

As the car approached, the gate slowly opened after a security scan. A line of security guards in black uniforms stood at attention, showing just how hard it was for most people to get past this gate.

The car drove for another five minutes or so before finally stopping at the castle’s entrance.

Henry, along with a line of maids, was already waiting to greet them. The car stopped, and Henry opened the door with a respectful bow. “Mr. Giovanni, Ms. Giovanni,” he said politely.

Sebastian got out of the car first and then extended his hand to her.

Stephanie looked at his large hand and then slowly placed her smaller one onto it.

With a gentle tug, Sebastian helped her out of the car.

Henry, usually calm, couldn’t hold back tears when he saw Stephanie. “Ms. Giovanni, you’re finally back. It hasn’t felt the same without you these past few years.”

Stephanie smiled softly and greeted him. “Henry.”

Henry, who was in his fifties, smiled back at her, his eyes a little red. “Come on in. Mrs. Lucano is already back.”

Stephanie nodded. Sebastian adjusted her jacket. Stephanie shook her head. “I’m not cold.”

The weather in Fiorenza was much warmer than Long Harbor. Long Harbor was freezing.
