Giovanna D'Agostino sat in the lounge of her families large house just north of Bologna. The Italian was waiting for her father, Gino, to let her know what the plans for tonight were. Rumour had it that there was a big dinner being held at the D'Agostino residence, but considering Giovanna could not see her mother rushing about with her usual event planners, it seemed plans could change."Giovanna, dinner is now at Aunt Valentina's. God knows why," Gino D'Agostino sighed, "Go and get yourself sorted. We're leaving in two hours."
Giovanna rolled her eyes at the short notice, "Alright, I'll go and get ready."
"Wear something decent. There will be important people there," Gino warned, "Oh, we're going in separate cars too."
"Okay," Giovanna forced a smile.
The young Italian left the lounge and swung by the kitchen to grab the bottle of rosé she had opened the night before, along with a glass. She poured herself a glass, taking a large swig and set the glass and the bottle on her dressing table.
After taking her makeup off and a quick shower, Giovanna entered her walk-in wardrobe wrapped in a white fluffy towel and looked for an outfit. She flicked through her nicer dresses and came across an orange silk one with a slit down one side that she had not worn in a long time.
She connected her phone to the speakers in her room and picked a playlist to have on while she sat down at her dressing table to do her makeup. Half an hour later, Giovanna was armed with a set of false lashes and some bold red lipstick, just about ready to go. She slipped the silk dress over her head, grabbed her black clutch bag and put on her black Valentino heels. Checking the time on her watch, Giovanna sprayed some perfume on her neck and wrists before she double-checked she had everything she needed, turned off the lights and pulled her bedroom door shut.
Her mother, Francesca, and her father were waiting by the front door to make sure Giovanna was ready on time. They left the house together, although Gino and Francesca left in a white Lamborghini Aventador and Giovanna a blue McLaren 720s.
