Charlotte's POV

For the first time since we arrived in Italy, I took my time admiring everything around me. P'Sun was driving Isabella and me to her house. He hadn’t uttered a word since we got in the car. Italy didn’t seem too bad, except for the three other SUVs tailing us like we were royalty.

"When Engfa gets home, we can go see her house too," Isabella says, breaking me out of my thoughts.

"Does she live near you and Pichy?" I ask.

"Of course, Pichy hardly lets Engfa out of her sight. I was honestly surprised when she was okay with Engfa leaving Italy."

I hum. It's interesting how much Pichy cares about Engfa, and it's also interesting how Isabella doesn’t even seem a tiny bit jealous about it.

"It's obvious how much Pichy cares about Engfa," I state.

Isabella glances at P'Sun, then looks back at me, "Engfa is important to all of us. Pichy always tells me how our family is the most important thing to her in the world, but I know that's with the exception of Engfa."

"Doesn't it make you jealous that your wife cares about someone else that much?" I hesitantly ask.

Isabella shakes her head, "Not at all. Engfa saved Pichy from herself. She was and is the shoulder that Pichy feels vulnerable and comfortable to cry on. Without her, I don't know how Pichy would be. Plus, she pushed Pichy to get her shit together and be with me."

We both chuckle at the last part. "How did she manage to do that?"

"Let's just say she came up with really creative ways to get us alone together. She owns the law firm, after all, so she had her ways."

"Do people know she owns the law firm?" I question.

"After the kidnapping, people became suspicious, so I would say some do and some don't."

I nod. "Can we go see the law firm too when Engfa gets better?"

Isabella's eyes widen in surprise. "Really? I got the impression that you don't really want to be involved in stuff like this?"

"Engfa is my life now, and I want to know everything about her. Even the stuff that she doesn't show the world."

Isabella gives me a big smile. "She really loves you, you know? There's this light in her eyes that wasn’t there before."

"I know. I love her too, with all my heart." I take a deep breath before confessing what I'm about to say. "I-I'm gonna marry that girl. She's the one."

Isabella's eyes light up, and she giggles like a child. "Whenever you want to do that, you have to give me a call so we can plan the best proposal."

I laugh at her excitement and nod. "We're best friends now, aren't we?"

"I knew we were going to be best friends the moment I saw you. Besties for life." She yells that last part and throws her arms around me in a hug.

"We're here," P'Sun says, causing us to back away from the hug.

I look outside, and wow, Engfa wasn’t kidding when she said they have a mansion.

"Come on, I can't wait to show you the inside," Isabella says and basically drags me out of the car.

P'Sun follows behind us but not too closely. We walk to the front door, and Isabella opens it. The second she does, I hear tiny footsteps, and a few seconds later, I see Olivia and Sofia running towards us.

Sofia reaches us first, and I didn’t want Isabella to bend down and pick her up, so I pick her up and put her in Isabella's arms. Then I look at Olivia, and she runs to me and jumps into my arms.
