"Maria it was all your father's choice, we had nothing to do with it." Dante lies blindly. Maria shakes her head not approving Dante's statement.
"No!" She shouts.
"Look we even threw a huge party for Zia Ellie when she came back." Alessio tries to convince. Liar.
"No....Mama I want chocolate milk." She says, paring her hazel eyes at her mother. I stare at her eyes, how beautiful they are. With just a twinge of green in the middle as it blends with brown.
"Eleanor a little help here." Matteo whines as he tries to hold Maria but she keeps running from his grip.
"She has her own belief that I personally share with her." I say, shrugging my shoulders.
He groans as he hangs his neck.
"What's everyone winning about?" Marco asks, coming into the living room.
"Maria found out we sent Eleanor to boarding school." Antonio shortly answers.
"And...?" Marco drifts off.
"She's mad at us, all of us." Luca continues.
"Can a pony fix it?" Alessio asks.
"Flor, do you want a pony?" Marco asks with a warm smile.
"No." She says quickly before turning to me. "Zia Ellie, I want a pony."
A proud smile makes its way onto my face as my brothers glare at me. "I'll get you a pony."
"Yay!!!" I bright smile covers her adorable face. As her eyes light up.
I look back at Marco with a small smile. Then something catches my eye. Marco and Maria do not have the same eye color. At all. Huh.
Matteo gives up on convincing Maria and turns on the tv. He switches through a few channels when a news channel comes on with three familiar faces on screen.
"Holy shit."-Matteo
"Is that-" -Luca
"Serves them right."-Antonio.
The red hair on screen pops up as she starts describing the crimes the men committed.
"Leonardo Mancini caught for laundering money using the worldwide realtor company; Homemade to do it. Eligio Esposito in jail with a lifetime sentence for murdering his wife, Veronica Mancini. And finally last but not least Eduardo Caporaso abused both his wife and daughter, the daughter produced by him raping his wife when she was 15. Thank you that is all we have for today."
A proud smile makes its way on my face. My phone buzzes in my pocket. "Hello?"
"Did you like your late birthday present?" Cruz asks teasingly.
"You got them on the news?" I ask, getting up and walking into an empty hallway.
"Only the best for such a special girl." He flirts.
"How did you know about the other two?" I ask.
"You're not the only one with connections." He reminds me.
I get why he would know from Mr. Ross. But I have no clue how he knows from Raphael.
"How do you know Raphael?"
"If I revealed all my secrets it wouldn't keep you up all night." He dismisses.
"And if I reveal mine you'd go insane." I remind him.
