Italian Obsession

Chapter 94

*** The next day:

Danny

After I finished up purchasing the Bugatti, I was really hoping that Valentina would be excited considering that we are having a fresh start.

I know how my previous habits scare her, but I am determined to assure her that I will never hurt her ever again. "Why did you buy a new car?"

"Because it's a good-looking car and she would look really good driving it."

"How much was it?"

"None of your business, Pete."

He shook his head. "You are out of your damn mind, did you know that?"

"I love her, man. I will do absolutely anything for her."

"So, you think a car is going to win her back?"

"Well, no. But hopefully she realizes that I would do anything for her."

"I'm sure that had to have cost at least 1.6 million."

"2.5."

"Are you serious?"

"Yep."

"You can't buy her love. You know that, right?"

"Yes, but this is just one of the many things that I have planned for her."

"You're out of your mind, Danny."

"Maybe, but she deserves it. She deserves the world."

"You didn't think about that after you got engaged to Katy."

"Look, that's in the past. I am a new man, and I don't ever want to leave Val again."

"Whatever you say, Danny."

I didn't care how much it cost, but I know for sure that Valent will love it.

After I left the dealership, I left a voicemail for Valentina. "Hey baby, happy birthday. I know you are at work and are going out for drinks with the girls, but I have a surprise waiting for you. I love you, see you later."

I could hardly wait for her to get home.

Valentina

After work and several drinks later, I was definitely feeling the effects. "I think I'm done drinking for the night."

"Already? But it's so early."

By the looks of Katy and Micah, they were both incredibly intoxicated. "It's almost 1 in the morning. I'll get an Uber for us."

Once the Uber dropped Katy and Micah off at their houses, I went home eagerly waiting for the surprise.

I felt my heart drop to my feet the moment I laid eyes on the dark gray Bugatti parked in our driveway. Oh my god.

I got out of the car and stumbled inside, noticing that Danny was in the living room watching TV and drinking beer. "Is that car for me?"

Danny looked at me and stood up. "Happy birthday, babe."

Smirking, he went to the kitchen and handed me keys. "This is for you."

"Wow, I don't even know what to say."

He smiled. "You don't have to say anything. I hope you like it."

"Are you kidding? I love it!"

"Good, I'm glad."

"I'm surprised you're up this late."

He shrugged. "We don't have work tomorrow and I figured you would be asleep. But I think you should lay down, Val."

"I am fine, Danny."

"You are drunk, don't you dare even try to lie to me, Valentina."

"What do you mean?"

Shaking his head, he put the keys on the counter and locked the front door before picking me up and took me to our bedroom. "Get some sleep." He whispered after he took my clothes off and laid the blanket on me.

"Are you going to join me?"

"In a bit."

Without a word, he quietly shut the door leaving me alone in the bedroom. What is his problem?
