Camila's P.O.V
"Wait, I forgot my bag," I whispered to Valentino, and he was almost going to order someone to get it but I quickly spoke.
"No need, I can do it," I said, and he shook his head in disagreement.
"Camila, you know that no one should see you." He said serenely, and I frowned.
"I'll be quick, please..." I begged and he sighed in defeat and nodded.
"Thank you," I say and quickly get out of the car before his mind will change.
I entered the restaurant wearing my mask and was hurrying to the VIP section when I ran into someone.
I whimpered and landed on their chest. Their arms wrapped around my waist. When I looked up, my heart was racing like there was no tomorrow.
It was Alejandro.
"Camila?" I overheard him whispering. How could he have known it was me? I became aware that I wasn't intended to be noticed.
"I'm so sorry, sir," I said as I pulled him away and dashed inside the VIP room where I'd left my bag. I rapidly exhaled as I entered the room.
I just couldn't believe it. When I saw Alejandro, I wanted to hug and kiss him like there was no tomorrow, but I also wanted him to experience the sorrow that I felt. My mind was filled with conflicting feelings.
I was sobbing and attempting to catch my breath. Camila, you are more powerful than this.
My thoughts started, and I swiftly wiped away my tears.
I rose up, grabbed my bag, and reapplied my mask.
Camila, you despise him. Keep it in mind.
My thoughts said and I nodded and sniffled. I walked out of the VIP room, trying to calm my nerves.
As I walked outside, I quickly approached the car to see a mad, frustrated Valentino.
"What took you so long?" He asked with an irritated tone.
"I-i went to the restroom." I lied and he sighed and suddenly he took my wrist and roughly pulled me close to him.
"Don't ever lie to me, Amore. Now let me ask you again, what took you so long?" He said this in a dangerous tone.
"I promise I'm not lying." I sprawled again and suddenly he bought it and let me go.
"I'm sorry." He whispered and hugged me.
I nodded and he pulled away.
That was a close one...

"Madam, good morning."
Francine said she was someone Valentino hired to help me if I needed anything.
"Francine, we talked about it, I said you're going to call me Camila," I said, and she chortled.
"Good morning Camila." She stated and I nodded.
"Good morning Francine, where's Micheal?" I inquired and stood up.
"He's with Miss Caroline in his bedroom." She answered and I nodded
"Breakfast is ready, Mr. Valentino is waiting for you." She said, and I nodded and walked out of my bedroom.
I went straight to my son's room to see him playing with his nanny, Miss Caroline, but for real though, I didn't need these people helping me, I could do all of this myself.
"Hi, my baby," I whispered and approached them.
"Miss Caroline, good morning." I greeted her and she bowed.
I took Micheal in my arms and he smiled.
"He is one handsome baby dear." Miss Caroline said, and I smiled.
"Has he had breakfast?" I asked her as Michael played with the little charm on my necklace.
"Yes." Miss Caroline said and I nodded.
I sat on the couch and played with Micheal for a bit while I chatted with Francine and Caroline.
While we were chatting, someone entered the room. It was Marcelo.
"Camila, Mr. Valentino is waiting for you in the garden for breakfast." He said, and I suddenly forgot.
I said, "I'll be on my way," stood up and passed Michael to Miss Caroline.
"I'll see you later, buddy," I said, and I kissed Micheal on the forehead.
I walked out of the room with Francine following me.
We were staying at Valentino's place. It was really big, but it had a feeling of loneliness. Of course, it had many embellishments and little sentimentalities, but it gave me a feeling of fear and sorrow.
When we finally got to the garden, I saw Valentino and Marcelo sitting down, I approached them and when Valentino noticed, he stood up and hugged me.
"Good morning." He greeted me and I said the same, and we hugged. I was back.
We broke away and I sat down beside him. The maids gave me my breakfast, and I started to eat, and as usual, Valentino and Marcelo were talking again.
After a few minutes, Marcelo had to go somewhere.
"Valentino?" I said and took his attention.
"Amore?" he said and I sighed.
"Umm, I wanted to ask you if Michael and I could go outside," I said, and he looked at me shocked.
"Amore, you know people can't see you yet, right?" He said and held my hand.
"But, Valentino, Michael is my son. I want him to know the outside world and not keeping him locked up here." I reasoned and he sighed.
"Camila" He was about to speak when someone suddenly cut him off.
"Boss, you have an emergency meeting at the headquarters." I heard what his men said and I looked at him pleadingly.
"Okay, both of you can go out. You have guards with you though. You both will keep your identity secret." He said settling his rules and I nodded and in excitement, I hugged him tightly.
"Thank you!" I squealed and he laughed and placed his arm on my waist.
"Il tuo amore benvenuto amore."He said, and I smiled.
(Translation: Your welcome Love.)
"I have to go," he informed me and I nodded and left to go to work.
