"Vincent wants to see you." Luca says and I head upstairs to his office. I've been sitting in the garden with my thoughts as company. I thought about his confession, the kiss and the mafia thing.
"Nicole, please come in." Vincent says before I get a chance to even knock.
He's standing by the window but walks towards me. "I would like you to wear this." he says and pulls out a small black box from his pocket.
I open it and it's a black ring with gold and diamond details. Really expensive, I guess. It says "Nicole Giovanni."
I look from the ring to him "Are you proposing?"
"I guess you could call it that."
"Vincent, a marriage should be taken serious."
"Don't forget that we will get married whether or not you say yes now." He pauses "But I wanted your blessing."
Why am I feeling so warm? I know he only does this because that's what he has to do."
Carefully I put the ring on my finger and Vincent looks satisfied like he thought I would put up a fight "We're going to have an engagement party tonight so you should chose one of the dresses on your bed." Not a single word about the kiss. I have to get away from here before the marriage.
VINCENT POV:
I see her leave my office and I sit down behind my desk. I can't stop thinking about the kiss. I didn't think the kiss would mean anything to me. I've only seen her as a investment as she called it but now I don't know.
There's something different and mysterious about her that I just can't let go of.
"Mr.Giovanni." The voice belongs to Charlie and it interrupts my thoughts.
"Yes. Come in, both of you."
They close the door behind them and have a seat in front of me.
"He will be there."
"I want to kill him."
"He has the right to as the third mafia."
I pull a hand through my hair "Don't let him come near her. Don't even let him look at her."
"Do you like her?" Charlie ask while smiling.
"Not relevant and I have things to take care of."
NICOLE POV:
I tried on the dresses multiple times but I can't decide. They're too beautiful.
"Are you done?"
"No."
"What?" Vincent enters, the black suit
fits him perfectly and he looks more perfect than ever.
I'm sitting at my bed with the dresses around me.
"I can't decide which one to wear."
He looks through the dresses before he says "The mint green one. It makes your eyes sparkle."
Quickly I change into the dress (picture at first side) and Vincent nods approvingly before we leave. I smile because he doesn't know that tonight is going to be the night for my escape.
