il mio primo e ultimo amore

Deliberate Assassination

The past week has been Vincenzo and his people finding the mastermind behind Dante.

Fredrico was in total shock when he was informed what Dante had done.

Vincenzo was infuriated, but all he could do was wisely give a heads-up to the older cousin regarding trusting one.

Everyone was trying to retrieve information, and it would have been easier if the person was to be in Italy but because Dante himself was Maltese and the Napoli's were settled there too, it took a few days.

Now, an hour passed after he got the text from Marco regarding Antonio Napoli being in our hands and after a brief call with Luca, he makes his way to sleep as well.

The reason for why he texted Marco and informed Luca that he'd be coming over the day after tomorrow and not tomorrow is because Vincenzo is contemplating whether to tell this all to Cha Young, or not.

She seems calm and relaxed, and he just doesn't want to reignite anything.

He knows she has no regret after tonight's conversation and telling her this all would be completely fine but the other part of him knows that if he tells her that he's going to interrogate Antonio, she might want to come along.

Vincenzo knows that will be exposed to the way they work sooner or later, but he just feels like the timeline of events is happening too fast to his liking.

Not that he doesn't know that he can't control whatever is to happen in the future, it's just that this decision is in his hand, and he wants to make one wisely.

He also doesn't want to lie to her, because he simply can't, that is beyond his principles.

So, he contemplates, waiting and just thinking a little too much that the day turned into nightfall, and he has no other choice but to sleep and then prepare himself for tomorrow.

Vincenzo doesn't change into something comfortable before eating dinner, and Cha Young doesn't seem to mind so there's no questioning about it.

They have dinner accompanied by small talk and Cha Young's chatters about nothing and everything.

After they both have had dinner, and Cha Young is bringing the makgeolli bottles over, he tells her.

"I won't be able to join you today."

"Waeyo? We can drink wine if you don't want to." She stops her steps as her hands carry a few bottles of the white rice wine.

"I need to go somewhere." He tells her shortly and watches her brows furrow.

"Where to? It's almost 10." She asks and moves towards him, leaving the bottles on the kitchen counter,

He looks at her moving towards him and honestly answers her.

"We've found the man behind Dante, I am going to meet him."

"I'll come along." She says and moves to the room.

Vincenzo closes his eyes and holds her arm lightly.

He doesn't want to prolong the conversation and it's getting late.

"You won't like what you will see."

That makes Cha Young stop and look back at him, he has opened his eyes and looks at her back too, slowly withdrawing his hand from her arm.

She comes closer to him, a sudden agitation and anger rising up in her.

"I know that very well, as if you didn't tell me what one goes through for their wrong deeds, and I agree with how the Family works with it. Have I ever disagreed with anything that you told me about? No, because I believe that this is what is to be done to tear down the real evil." She says while looking at him with a heavy gaze.
