Falling For The Blind Billionaire (Book 1)

Chapter 34: The Bravery

-

"This is what happened in the afternoon, so you can put your mind at ease now" Gisella explains to Nicolo as they all seat together in the sitting room with Zeta, Zia Benedetta, and Alessandro.

"Signora is a brave woman," Alessandro sings Gisella's praises to her husband.

Gisella sighs. "Grazie Mille, Alessandro," she smiles as she looks back to her husband's babyface. "About Bianca Conte, Thank you."

Nicolo looks at her warmly. "Don't do such dangerous things next time," he scolds.

Gisella smiles. "Okay,"

Her phone interrupts their family reunion. Nicolo looks at the caller. Signora. C. Moretti. Nicolo frowns as Gisella looks at him for permission and he nods for her to answer it.

"Hello, Signora!" she speaks.

"Hello, Gisella, what have you done to Viola again?" she flames up on the phone. "She just came back home and threating to end her life. I want you to come to our house now please," she insists and hangs up Immediately.

Gisella looks at everyone in the room and back to her husband. "Let's go to the Moretti's, I want you to see something interesting," Nicolo nods and told Alessandro to get the car.

An hour later, they arrived at Moretti's Villa. Without looking properly, Signora Caterina yells at Gisella. "Look at what you've done," Her eyes landed on Nicolo who was resting beside the door. "Giovane maestro, you're here too? goo...good timing, you'll be the judge of it." she stammerers.

She gestured for them to come in and points at Viola who was sitting lifeless on the couch. "Look at how lifeless she had turned into. Gisella, Viola has been your friend since you were kids. If you have not met up with her husband privately it could have not gotten to this extent."

Gisella raises a confused eyebrow at Signora Caterina. "Is it really because of me meeting up with her husband for interview purposes that she became this way? or she didn't tell you any other thing!"

Signora Caterina's looks were quickly replaced with confusion. "What are you trying to say, Gisella? Make it clear,"

"What if I tell you that I have evidence that she tries to take my life and put the life of my unborn child at risk by paying someone to hurt me in the washroom. What will you do then?"

she flinches. "That is im...impossible," she stares right at her daughter direction in horror.

"Mama, Gisella has always been in my way since we were kids. And she has caused me pain. I was angry at her for meeting with my husband." Viola voiced out from her sitting position. "So don't slander me and act like the victim," she added in anger.

Gisella's pulse rises. "Viola, you still blame me for the evil that you have done and still doing to me? I am happily married and expecting a child for the one I love, you think I have time to run around with your husband? why don't you tell him to stay away from me...? You even hired investigators to follow your husband around, is that my fault too?" she yells at Viola who has run out of words to say.

"What...?" Signora Caterina spat. She became weak and confused by hearing all of this. "Signora Nico...Nicolo, it's..."

Nicolo stops her words. "I've looked into this matter. My wife's colleague has admitted that it's Viola Santoro who instructed her. And because of that incident, my wife was hospitalized for three days." he voiced out his Italian accent with all grace in it. "You're no stranger to Viola, right? she's your daughter and I am sure you were the one who raised her...Am I right? Mrs. Moretti?"

Viola has seen in her mother's eyes that she is giving up on her little game, so she immediately stands up and holds her arm crying. fake tears as always. "Mama, She is lying, believe me," she sobs.

"Gisella...it's my fault that I mistook you for long," she sounds apologetical. "Viola is my only child, I've always given her whatever she wanted even though I know most of them are wrong, Shall we let bygones be bygones?" she pleaded.

Gisella's anger emulates. "Now I see...when you thought that your daughter is at fault, you couldn't wait to settle the scores with me, but now when you know I was the one being wronged!" she fakes a smile immediately. "No problem, I am okay. Let's go, Mio Caro," she calls at her husband.

she hugs Viola and her mother. "Send my regards to Signor Luigi."

"Thank you, Mia Cara Gisella," Signora Moretti smiles at me.

The look on Viola's face was not satisfied. "I'm sorry, Gisella, I realize my mistake, can you forgive me?"

With a bright smile. "You've been forgiven, just tell your husband to Stay away from me and my family." She smiles at Viola and Viola furrows her eyes at her as they exit the door.
