After finishing her paperwork, Anna grabbed the things she might need , she drove her Mercedes to the address Diego gave her

When she pulled over , she found herself in front of a big manor , with the letter "L" on the front gate .

She parked her car and walked to the gate , there were two guards standing there

Guard 1
signorina, ha un appuntamento?
(miss, do you have an appointment ?)

Anna
sono l'ingegnere del giardino
(I'm the garden engineer .... )

Both guards looked at each other and nodded , guard 2 pressed the wireless on his ear , suddenly, the gate opened itself, it was automatic .

Guard 1
Signorina, perdonami, entra
(Miss , forgive me , come in )

Anna gave him a small smile as she entered , the guards accompanied her inside the house .

Anna
Dove stiamo andando ?
(Where are we going ? )

Guard 2
La signora ci ha detto di portarti da lei quando arrivi
(The lady told us to bring you to her when you arrive . )

Anna
Chi è la signora?
(Who's the lady ?)

Guard 1
La padrona di casa.
(The lady of the house . )

The guards took Anna to an office , they knocked , and a female voice answered in italian , "Si accomodi" ( translation: come in )

The guards opened the door for Anna and entered, the office had grey walls , grey couches , everything was grey , dark theme , there was a woman sitting on the big grey chair behind the desk , she looked in her mid fifties, she had black straight hair , the dress she wore was a black dress from Dolce Gabana

Guard 1
mia signora, l'ingegnere è qui
(my lady , the engineer is here)

The Lady
Capisco, ok puoi andartene ora
(i see , okay you can leave now )

Both guards left the room and closed the door , the Lady stood up from her office and walked to Anna , giving her hand to shake

The lady says as she shakes Anna's hand
Mr. Ricci told me You're an american ,I'm Julia , nice to meet you

Anna
I am ... I'm Anna , nice to meet you too

Julia
I'm sorry if the guards were a bit strict , they're just following my orders , enemies are everywhere

Anna got confused at the word " enemies" , she kept looking at Julia in a weird confused look

Julia
Business rivals , you know what i mean

Anna
Oh ! Right of course

Julia
"Bene" , let's get you some heads up
(Translation : Alright)

Julia goes back to her office and asks Anna to take a seat , and She did .

Julia
I believe mr. Ricci told you this will be a funeral?

Anna
He did actually

Julia
The person who died is my husband.

Anna
I'm so ... sorry

Julia
It's been few days now , i wanna make his funeral special , because of his sudden death , i finally got to see all my children gathered again , part of me is happy , my son who was away must stay here to take his father's place in the business now , as for you , I'm gonna show you the garden behind our house , it's a disaster, your job is to redesign it , make it look new , it's where we gonna have the funeral .

Anna
Don't worry, you can count on me

Julia
Alright, let's show you the garden then ?

Anna
Okay

Julia started showing Anna the house around , until they reached the garden , it was not really damaged , but not good looking enough for a funeral, Anna considered it as her new obsession, redesign and redecorate , was all what Anna craves for

They walked around until they spotted a young man talking on the phone , his back facing them .

Julia
Oh ! That's my son , let's go meet him

They walked to the man , Julia patted on his shoulder so he would turn around , and he did , that's when Anna got shocked , she had goosebumps, as for the man , he dropped his phone to the ground and his mouth went wide open .

Anna
Damon...?
