THIRD PERSON POV:

"Where is she, Andreano?" A voice thundered through the dining room.
Everyone's heads snapped toward the direction of the voice.

"Behave." Another voice, smoother but just as commanding.

"You're telling me to behave, Dad? Really? Here, he couldn't even protect her?" Vince shot back, fury boiling over.

"I left her here, trusting he would protect her from Mikael, but he couldn't. I should have taken her with us to Russia."

"You're no one to speak to my brother like that! And you can't take our sister away from us. You have no rights over her." Michael snarled, standing up abruptly.

"Enough!" The voice of Eduard, the head of Russo, boomed instantly silencing the room.

"Nonno, but..." Vince started to argue, but the patriarch raised a hand, halting him.

"Not a word, Vince. I know you're angry. I understand your pain, but look at Andreano. His eyes are filled with guilt. He's hurting too." Eduard said, his tone surprisingly calm as he looked at his grandson.

Vince's anger softened, replaced by regret. He turned to Andreano, his voice quieter. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it Andre. You know how important she is to me. I just couldn't control myself and took out my anger on you."

The tension in the room slowly faded as the Russo family took their seats. Dinner proceeded with an eerie quietness, the conversation turning to how they would locate Isabella and free her from Mikael's grasp. By the time the meal ended, everyone retreated to their rooms, including the Russo family, who had taken refuge at the Romano mansion for the time being.

Later that night, the Russo siblings gathered with Andreano and his brothers to strategize. At 2 am., Andreano's phone buzzed, an unknown number flashing on the screen.

"Wait a second, let me connect this call through a tracker." Amadeo, Vince's older brother, said quickly. He worked fast, trying to lock onto the signal.

"Be quick." Liam urged, helping him out.

Andreano picked up the call. "Hello?"

"Hello, Andreano. I hope you enjoyed your meal... without your sister." Mikael's mocking voice came through, sending a chill down their spines.

"What do you want, Mikael?" Mason growled, barely containing his temper.

"Oh, it seems like I have more Romano's in the room with me." Mikael laughed.
