Beautiful like a rose 🌹 but... fragile like a bomb 💣

Cap 161

Carlo: I think it would be better to talk to her first, so we can try to understand what happened!

After a lot of convincing work and good minutes where Laura, Olga and little Maya waited in the hospital corridors with Massimo and Domenico for the results of Alessandro's surgery .

Massimo finally manages to convince Laura and Olga to wait in another part of the building, where there is a cafe, a playground and a room where there is a TV and several books both for adults and coloring books for the little ones.

Massimo makes a phone call and in a few minutes Laura and Olga come to Carlo's office, escorted by Franco!

Carlo as the Torricelli family's trusted doctor, he personally took care of all the medical problems that Laura and Olga had from the moment they became part of the family.

What's more, Carlo was the one who saved Laura's life by performing the heart transplant after she was shot.

The fact that Carlo was always there willing to help them in the most difficult moments made Laura and Olga develop a close relationship with him.

Massimo and Domenico who grew up with Carlo as a constant presence in their lives, being one of their parents' best friends considered him as an uncle.

As soon as Laura and Olga appear in Carlo's office, he hugs them fatherly and invites them to take a seat.

Carlo: It is a pleasure as Mrs. Torricelli, to honor myself with your presence.

Olga and Laura: We are also glad to see you uncle!

Olga: (smiling) But we would have been even happier if Auntie Sofia was here too.

Sofia is the wife of Carlo.

Laura, Massimo and Domenico give Olga a disapproving look.

Olga: What is it? Why are you looking at me like that?

Olga: I was just saying that I miss Auntie Sofia.

Carlo: (smiling) It's okay, Olga, don't pay attention to them.

Carlo: I appreciate your honesty!

Carlo: I'm sure Sofia would be happy to see you both.

Carlo: You just know that you can always come have a coffee and chat like girls.

Olga: Thank you uncle! I knew you had a sense of humor and understood me unlike the 3 grumpy people next to me.

Olga: We will definitely call the aunt in the coming days to set up a meeting, especially now that Lari is back.

Carlo: Welcome home, Laura! I'm glad to see you again!

Carlo: But I am even more glad to see that you are well!

Laura: Nice to see you too, uncle!

Laura: It is because of you that I can be here today, and for that I will never be able to thank you enough!

Carlo: My dear, I was just doing my job.

Carlo: You were the one who fought to recover and return to your loved ones.

Carlo, noticing the sadness in Laura's and Massimo's eyes, decides to ease the tension.

Carlo: But I think now is the time to leave the past behind and focus on the present.

Carlo: Massimo  told me that you are now the mother of a princess.

Carlo: Congratulations my darling!

Laura: Thank you, uncle!

Carlo: Actually the reason I asked Massimo to call you to talk is related to your little one.

Laura looks a little confused at both Massimo and Carlo, not understanding what is happening.
