Chapter Twenty Eight
After the call, Giovanni could not help but notice something fishy about the first voice that had spoken; it was feminine and the fact that it had spoken out of desperation was something he was worried about. He knew Amore was hiding something that was why he had traveled to Italy but Giovanni wondered what it could possibly be.
**
When Amore was done with the call, he turned and looked at Bianca with rage. When she had seen the call which indicated Giovanni, she desperately needed to speak with him but before she could say anything, the phone had been snatched from her.
“You don’t want to learn, do you?” He said, approaching her dangerously with Bianca moving back. “You rather chose to be stubborn and do otherwise. I need you to know that you are only putting your son’s life at risk. This would be the last time you ever try anything stupid. The next time you do, you can as well kiss your son goodbye” Amore left the living room afterwards.
Bianca knew she was threading on a dangerous path; Giovanni giving her the last chance meant that if she made any mistake, Alonso would pay for it. She needed to act smarter than she was at the moment. There was no way she would leave the snares of Amore but then again, she could buy his trust back! She could decide to play by his rule and do what’s necessary of her and when the appropriate time would come, she would strike.
She heads straight to Amore’s room; if she needed to earn his trust, she could as well start by asking for his forgiveness.
Bianca knocked on his door and when she entered, the surprise on Amore’s face showed that she could actually pull this through.
“Listen, when you left the living room some minutes ago, I sat down to assess the situation at hand and knew that there was no way I could actually outsmart you and escape. At that point, I knew I had been making a big mistake and here I am hoping to make amends with you” Bianca fell to her knees right before him “I failed to realize how much you have sacrificed for me in the past, allowing me to stay at your place for two years. I am truly sorry for Amore and I promise to be a better person for the both of us” she watched as Amore stood up from the chair he was seated on and approached her .
“Is this some sort of prank?” Bianca knew that she needed to improve more in her act and so she stood to her feet and crashed her lips into his. After a few minutes of passionate kiss, she stopped and stared at him.
“Do you believe me now?” She asked with a smile on her face.
“Wow! Bianca? I still think I’m dreaming right now” Amore indicated, still trying to grasp the situation of the kiss.
“No you are not Amore, this is me trying to show you that I am sorry and that I am ready to change for us” She watched as his face morphed into happiness.
“This is what I wanted to hear all this while sweetheart; I have always wanted you to say these things to me. I am also sorry for the pain I caused you the other time” Amore also pleaded.
“It is okay babe, I caused it by thinking I could escape when in the actual sense I failed to realize all that you have done for me” Bianca knew she had won when he hugged her back.
“Now that we are even, I want you to know that from now on, whatever you need, ask and i promise if it is good, I will get it for you” Bianca knew that Amore was a love sicked fellow and so this would be an avenue to manipulate him to get away from his snare.
“Don’t worry babe, I understand” She started hugging him once more.
“That reminds me, the round table would be having a meeting tomorrow, care to join?” Bianca knew that he was testing her. If she accepted, that means she was doing so because she wanted to see Giovanni but if she rejected, it meant otherwise
“The decision lies in your hand Amore”
“I could possibly allow you to go with me but knowing Giovanni would be there, I don’t trust you around him. I say this by making reference to what transpired the last time” Bianca knew that she needed a way to convince him that she hated Giovanni.
“I know you may possibly not trust me around him but I want you to know that I don’t fancy him any longer” Amore chuckled upon hearing what she said.
“And you want me to buy that crap” Bianca knew she had just committed a blunder and so needed to erase it as quickly as possible.
“I want to make a confession” Amore was taken aback and urged her to go on.
“There was this time when you weren’t home that I decided to turn on the television. It turns out that Giovanni has finally moved on to someone else. I had my doubts at first but when he said horrific things about me like how I was just his baby mama, I knew at that point I made a huge mistake by allowing my feelings for me take over my sense of reasoning” Bianca accompanied her words with some fake tears and watched how Amore bought it.
“I realize now that my feelings means nothing to him and if he had any chance, he would dispose me off like a waste bun” Bianca took Amore’s hand “But you Amore, you look like someone that would definitely have my back in the worst circumstances yet to occur; I mean it takes a foolish woman to not recognize true love when they see it. All these while, I should have noticed that your actions though some inappropriate where do because you loved me”
Bianca watched as Amore looked at her with admiration and loved the fact that she finally had him where he wanted; in her palms.
“So youre saying that if we do go for the meeting tomorrow and you encounter Giovanni, you would ignore him?” Amore asked
“Like a plague”
“Very good then, get ready, we will be going to Mexico in the next two days, but for now, let’s celebrate” he said, holding her by the waist and Bianca pretending to like it giggled as they headed down to the fridge, where he took a bottle of champagne.
“A toast to the beginning of our pleasure” he held his glass up.
“Indeed” their glass clicked and they both gulped it down.
“So what will we be doing tomorrow?” Amore asked.
“What do you mean?”
“What I mean is, considering the fact that you have decided to be the girl i want you to be, there should be something I should do for you Oh! Wait! How about I take you to some fancy places tomorrow?” Amore asked, looking cheerful than ever.
“That would be awesome; I mean, I finally have the chance to explore Italy rather than staying indoors except for times when you need me for an event,” Amore stated, pouting her face.
“Don’t worry sweetheart, I assure you that we will go explore Italy tomorrow but for tonight, why don’t you show me that you have changed” Bianca felt like puking upon seeing the smirk on his face.
“I would have loved to have this moment with you but I am on my period” Bianca lied; she knew that no one could easily buy the lies of women seeing their period after they had given birth.
“But I thought women stopped seeing their periods after they have given birth?”
“That is a false tale babe, women don’t allow men into their private business that is why they sold that lie to you all” She watched as Amore nodded his head in affirmative.

The following day, Amore suggested that they go to a fancy cinema to see a movie; Bianca was pleased that Amore hired a nanny to take care of Alonso while they go have their fun moment to which he accepted almost immediately.
Thelma decided to look around the hall and noticed a man in black hood had been following her and so she decided to go wait at the counter where there were security men.
“You still haven’t erased that fearful nature of your Bianca” Bianca’s eyes widened in shock and she turned around to look at the person the voice belonged to.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
“Lucifer?” He shushed her
“You don’t want to attract any of his bodyguards, do you?” He smirked at her.
“How are you still alive? How are you in Italy? How did you know I would be here?” She asked
“Too many questions to be answered. I don’t have much time but here, keep this device with you, I would contact you later so we could talk okay?” He handed her a small cell phone and Bianca knowing the body guards would be watching collected it stealthy.
“Now act like I am causing a nuisance to you” Lucifer stated.
“I told you I don’t have any fucking money, leave me alone” Bianca acted immediately.
“Is there a problem with my love?” Amore asked upon coming back
“This peasant here is asking me for money” she pointed to Lucifer who sealed his act perfectly.
“Where were you block heads when he approached her?” Amore shouted at his bodyguards who were surprised to see someone with their Boss’s wife
“We are sorry sir” they pleaded
“Get this low life out of my sight” they immediately grabbed Lucifer and took him out of the hall.
“So sorry for the embarrassment sweetheart. Hope he didn’t touch you?” Amore asked looking concerned
“No he didn’t, let’s just go” Bianca turned around to see that the bodyguards had returned. She held her purse tight and continued with her act, while moving along with Amore.
