Truth.

Stella slams the door behind her.

"Fuck I can't have someone who knows I killed her father walking around like that freely. She'll ruin everything." Diego says frustrated while playing with his ring.

*Suddenly he hears a knock at the door.*

"Come in." He says coldly.

Medusa slowly opens the door and leans on the side of it while crossing her arms.

"The days barely started and your already like this?" Medusa says while yawning.

Diego completely focuses all his attention onto her. His eyes scanning every inch of her body.

"Shouldn't you be getting ready?" He says clearing his throat, looking away.

"Shouldn't you be helping me pick my outfit Mr Santoro?" Medusa snaps back.

Diego rolls his eyes.

"And that's exactly why we have maids Medusa. They'll help with that, I'm busy."

Medusa walks towards his desk and leans forwards. Making her face very close to his.

"Too busy even for me?" Medusa says tilting her head.

Diego lets out a little laugh.

"What do you need help with then love?"

*Before Medusa walked out, Diego's phone began to ring.*

"Who the fuck got my phone number" Diego says confused.

"Hurry up!!" Medusa exclaims eagerly.

Diego sighs as he puts his phone back into his pocket.

"What dress should I wear, Dark red or black?"

"Dark red." Diego says while looking at his watch.

"It seems to me like you don't want to be here Diego... is something bothering you?"

Diego looks up at her.

"Do you know what happened to your father?"

Medusa looks at him confused.

"My dad?... He died when I was younger..." Medusa says clenching her jaw.

"Do you know how?" Diego says coldly still while looking at his watch.

"Well..yes.. my mum told me he died from a heart attack while he was at work.. Diego why are you asking me this?"

"No reason love. Just wondering." Diego says making eye contact with her.

"Hmm okay..."

*MEDUSA POV*

It was quite weird how he all of a sudden mentioned my father.. But it also really hurt me because I realised how lonely I was... I was his little princess. And since I was so distant I didn't know how to grieve the pain so I never really thought about it.

I shrugged off why Diego asked me that question. I never really knew what my dad did for work and my mum made sure I never questioned it. To this day I still wonder why...

*DIEGO POV*

I could tell this topic was triggering for her, but all I could think of is what if she found out.. that I was the one who took her father away. After the day I met her, I did some research on her and her name wasn't actually Medusa Evalor, it was actually Medusa Fernandez. She was daughter of Louis Fernandez, one of my fathers biggest rivals.

The night I turned 18 years old I murdered Louis Fernandez. Medusas father. I should've known. There was no way a girl in Chicago didn't know much about the Mafia, she couldn't have been this INNOCENT.

"Hey Diego." Medusa says snapping her fingers.

"Right yea, dark red it is."

"Alright." Medusa says looking at the dress.

"If you need me I'm in a meeting I'll be free shortly love, don't miss me for too long."

"You wish Santoro."

Diego smirks at her before leaving the room.

As Diego was heading downstairs, there she was.

"Move out of my way before I put a bullet through that tiny skull of your Estella"

"Don't worry I'm not here to bother, I'm here to just remind you it's your sisters death anversiary. I just thought you'd forget because your so busy with Medusa-"

"What the fuck did you just say Stella.?"

The rooms silence grew big.

Stella quickly looked down and rushed up the stairs, regretting what she had just said.

But before she could take another step Diego grabs her arm tightly.

"You ever try to remind me of anything regarding my sister, I swear I'll fucking kill you Estella. I've put up with your bullshit a lot recently and I'm not playing your fucking games so watch what you say very carefully." Diego says looking down at her.

He lets her go in an aggressive manor.

Diego makes his way into his meeting room without saying any words.
