Elena sat in her apartment, contemplating her next move. She needed to find out where Isabella was being held, and she knew Marco was the key. However, she couldn't risk being too direct. Marco had a way of seeing through deception, and she had to be careful.
She decided to use their chemistry and Marco's possessiveness to her advantage. She sent him a message, inviting him over. When he arrived, she greeted him with a smile, masking her inner turmoil.
"Hey, Marco," she said, her voice soft and inviting. "I was hoping we could spend some time together."
Marco's eyes lit up with a mix of surprise and desire. "Of course, Elena. I'd love that."
They spent the evening together, talking and laughing. Elena made sure to steer the conversation toward Alessandro without making it obvious. She learned that Marco was indeed close to Alessandro, but he didn't know the exact location of where Isabella was being held. However, she picked up enough hints to narrow down the possibilities.
At Romano's mansion:
Meanwhile, Giovanni was growing increasingly desperate to see his daughter. He contacted Alessandro, demanding proof that Isabella was unharmed. Alessandro, knowing that he needed to maintain the upper hand, agreed to a meeting at an upcoming ball hosted by a mutual acquaintance in the mafia world.
The ball was a grand event, where alliances were forged and broken. Giovanni knew it was a risky move, but he had no other choice. He had to see Isabella and ensure she was safe.
The Ball: A Dangerous Encounter
The night of the ball arrived, and the venue was filled with the elite of the mafia world. Men and women in elegant attire mingled, their conversations a mix of business and intrigue.
