Secret Love

Chapter 34 - The sudden visit

Alessandro's POV

I gritted my teeth in annoyance and ran my hand through my hair angrily. I took a deep breath and went to the location as I had received his message.

I parked my car in front of the warehouse. I looked around, there was no one around here. I checked the location one more time. It was right. I sighed and sent the location to my father, informing him that Lorenzo wanted to meet. Then I got out of the car and walked into the warehouse.

Lorenzo was waiting for me, placing his hands into his pockets. There were two men beside him.

"What do you want to talk about?" I asked nonchalantly, placing my hand into my pocket as I approached him.

"Gaia told me you broke up with her." He said firmly, looking into my eyes with a stoic expression on his face.

"Yes, I did. I don't feel anything towards her. So I decided to break up." I replied.

He gave me a mocking smirk and took a step towards me. "Hey boy, do you think you can make fun of me?" He asked, looking at me with piercing eyes.

"What made you think about it?" I asked arrogantly.

He gritted his teeth without taking his eyes off me for a second.

"You will tell Gaia that you regret what you said and ask her forgiveness." He demanded in a bossy tone.

I chuckled and stated firmly. "Never!"

"Then I will make you pay for your behavior." He threatened.

"We will see." I commented with a cocky expression on my face and turned around. "Bye." I waved my head without looking at him and walked towards the exit.

"Who does he look like more? His mother, Isabella or you, his father?" Lorenzo asked mockingly.

I instantly stopped. I gulped as I turned around slowly. Lorenzo was looking at me, a self-satisfied smirk on his face.

"What did you think that I couldn't find out about him?" He asked with an arrogant smirk. "You can not fool me, boy!" He gave me a death glare.

In a second, I was surrounded with a lot of men.

"I will give you a good lesson that you will not mess up with me again." He stated arrogantly and gestured to the men. They grabbed my arms and started hitting me.

I fought back as much as possible, but there were so many. Suddenly, my father rushed inside with our bodyguards. They instantly intervened and helped me.

"Alessandro, how do you feel?" My father asked anxiously.

"I am fine. Don't worry." I mumbled, leaning against my father and coughed, placing my hand on my stomach.

As our bodyguards disarmed Lorenzo's men, my father took a step towards Lorenzo.

"Stay away from my son!" He demanded. Lorenzo gave us a smirk. "We are leaving." My father told me and helped me to walk.

After the hospital, we went to the mansion. The doctor said there was nothing serious, just a few bruises and wounds.

"Alessandro! What happened?" My mother asked, scared as she saw me.

"Nothing serious. Don't worry." I replied and went towards the couch. "I just got into a fight." I added as I sat down on the couch.

"He is fine, Silvia. The doctor checked up on him." My father reassured.

My mother sighed, placing her hand on her hip and approached me.

"So if you are okay, you can give me an explanation. Why did you break up with Gaia? Because of that slut?" She snapped furiously. "She just wants a father for her bastard. Don't you understand it?!" She added in frustration.

"Mom, enough!" I exclaimed angrily as I stood up. "I will not let you talk about my wife and son this way." I warned her.

Her eyes widened in shock. She stared at me, dumbfounded, her mouth agape.

"What?...What the hell are you talking about?" She mumbled, puzzled.

"Isabella is my wife. We got married in New York. And Matteo is our son." I replied firmly.

"Why did you not tell us, and why did you get engaged to Gaia when you are already married? You told me you loved Gaia." She asked in astonishment.

I sighed and explained everything to her.

"Oh my goodness! Why have you not told me before?" My mother asked, offended.

When I wanted to reply, my father intervened. "You wouldn't let us do it and..."

"Of course, I would not let you do it." My mother cut him off. "It was so dangerous. Did you not think what Lorenzo could do if he found out about your plan? Look, what he had done because Alessandro broke up with his daughter." My mother stated and gestured to me. "Didn't you think that what could he do if he finds out about...." She breathed deeply and shook her head in disapproval. "And now, do you think he will leave you alone?" She asked as she traveled her gaze from my father to me.

"He can't do anything. I found the documents we needed. It will prove our innocence. Our security guard finally found the man who we were searching for. Now that Albertini is in trouble. I will make sure that he will die in a jail. Moreover, I made a complaint against him. So I will see him behind bars soon." I explained with a self-satisfied expression on my face.

"I hope." She took a deep breath. "I need to talk to Isabella and apologize. I told awful things to her. Poor girl!" My mother said sadly.

"Yes, you should." I commented honestly.

Isabella's POV

I finished breastfeeding Matteo when the doorbell hummed. I placed Matteo beside his toys on the play mat and went to open the door. My eyes widened in surprise as I saw Silvia in front of me.

"Good morning. May I come in?" She asked, giving me a warm smile.

"Umm...Good morning. Sure." I mumbled and let her in, moving aside.

What was she doing here? And her attitude. She was acting towards me like old times: warm and caring.
