"No, I'm sick of this. I'm sick of being together in bed with an old man. Please, take me away, Desmond, "pleads Elia.

"Honey?Are you alright? "said Filippo, but he didn't receive any answer from Elia.

The stomach has a big hole and it looks like someone did it on purpose.
"It's my wife for God's sake," Filippo screams in pain.
