Chapter 177 Why is Mr. Vittorio Like That?
The call went through, but Giorgio wrestled with a tumultuous emotion within him. What did it matter to him who she gives the sachet to? Why was he feeling so agitated?
In an attempt to regain his composure, Giorgio calmly ended the call, got up, and strode back to the bedroom to take a shower, wearing his pajamas.
With a firm 'bang!' The bathroom door closed.
Charlie, lying on the bed, glanced at the door with a curious frown. What was wrong with Daddy? Why did he seem angry? Never mind, getting a sachet personally embroidered by Auntie makes me happy! Super happy!
He messaged Anna, "Anna, I've never seen a sachet before, I really want to have it right now."
Anna had just finished her live stream, and she thought of her son's sparkling eyes at this moment, feeling tender in her heart. She replied, "I'll have someone deliver it to you soon."
"No need, it's too late tonight. Have someone send it to me tomorrow, Anna. Can you sew one more? Daddy has never seen a sachet either."
Anna hesitated. Send it to Giorgio? He wouldn't like it.
Recalling what he had said about being disgusted with her presence, she replied:
"Charlie, a sachet holds special meaning and shouldn't be given away casually. Get some rest, goodnight."
Charlie felt disappointed. It seemed that making Daddy and Anna be together was even more difficult than reaching the Bronze-to-King tier in a game.
After comforting Charlie, Anna finished her shower and lay down on the spacious and comfortable bed, looking at the date on her phone screen.
It had been exactly seven days since leaving the villa, and she had only posted an update once. Even if she didn't want any entanglements with Giorgio, she should post something today.
She opened the camera and selected a photo. In the picture, she was lying on top of Giorgio, looking intimate no matter how she looked at it. No, let's post the first set instead.
She quickly edited and adjusted the colors, then sent a text to Giorgio from Katherine's phone:
[What do you think of this set of photos with the caption 'With you in my life, everything is beautiful'? Should there be any problems?]
Giorgio emerged from the bathroom half an hour later. He looked at the person sleeping on the bed, turned off the main light, quietly walked over, and lie down beside him, instinctively reaching for phone to check the time.
Surprisingly, he saw a message from 'Katherine' and let out a cold laugh.
Her talent for deception and performance was truly exceptional. Or rather, her unwavering dedication to maintaining his and Katherine's relationship was truly commendable. He simply turned off the phone, placed it on the nightstand, and closed his eyes to sleep.
Anna waited for nearly an hour but received no reply. Puzzled she decided not to send any more messages for fear of triggering unforeseen consequence. Oh well, I'll check again tomorrow.
...
The next day arrived and Katherine's condition took a noticeable turn for the better. Her heartbeat, as well as all other vital signs, returned to normal. She even murmured and moved her lips. Though the words she uttered were incomprehensible, it was clear that she had regained consciousness!
Davide and Carla couldn’t contain their joy, sitting by her bedside, each holding one of her hands.
"This is great news; my Katherine is finally waking up,” Davide exclaimed.
"Katherine, you must wake up. Once you do, Daddy will fulfill all your wishes,” Carla added with genuine warmth in her voice.
The parents' love and affection for their daughter were on full display in this moment.
Anna stood nearby, her thoughts drifting back to Carla’s words when she mistakenly believed it was Anna who fell into the water.
"An identical person? It's not our Katherine, it must be that evil star. How did she come to the wedding? We had agreed to never let her step foot in Crownhaven."
"Is she dead? If not, take her to the hospital silently. If she is, quietly take her to the funeral parlor. Don't let anyone know, it would ruin today's wedding."
The tone and attitude back then were far from the current excitement and tenderness.
Two daughters, such striking differences.
Rizzo said, "The patient is now conscious and can fully hear us. It is crucial to have family and loved ones nearby, encouraging her and speaking words she likes, as it helps with awakening."
Carla immediately had an idea and smiled, saying, "Katherine's favorite person is Giorgio. I'll call Giorgio right now and ask him to come and see her."
Fabio, who had always been skeptical of Giorgio's feelings for Katherine. He quietly said, "Mom, it's noisy in there. Go outside to make the call."
Carla was momentarily puzzled but quickly realized Fabio's concern, fearing that Giorgio might refuse and upset Katherine.
She replied, "You stay with Katherine; I'll go outside to make the call."
With that, she walked out holding her phone, feeling anxious as she dialed Giorgio's number.
The call connected quickly. On the other end, Giorgio's tone remained as indifferent as ever, listening but not speaking.
Carla actually wished her daughter could be truly cherished by a man in his heart, instead of being treated with a superior attitude. But since Katherine liked him, there was nothing she could do.
In a friendly tone, she said, "Giorgio, I hope I'm not disturbing you at work. The thing is, Katherine is recovering well now. She is fully conscious today, and the doctor said it would be helpful for Katherine to have someone she likes by her side and talk to her. I hope you can come and keep her company her."
Her tone wasn't commanding as though she were speaking to her son-in-law but rather seeking agreement.
Giorgio raised an eyebrow and his eyes flickered with a deep meaning. After a moment, he smiled and said, "Katherine is my legal wife, so of course I should come and see her. I'll come over in a little while."
"Okay, that puts my mind at ease." Carla happily hung up the phone and walked back into the room.
"We all worried too much. Giorgio loves Katherine,” said with a relieved tone. “He is coming to see her right away, saying that Katherine was his wife. "
Davide was delighted and clasped Katherine's hand: "Katherine, do you hear me? Giorgio loves you very much and admits that you are his wife now. "
Fabio's eyebrows thickened. Something about this seemed off. This is not the attitude of Giorgio he had in mind.
No one noticed that Anna in the corner quietly left the room. Katherine was about to wake up and Giorgio was coming to see her. Their reunion wasn’t something Anna wanted to witness.
Twenty minutes later, a luxurious limited-edition limousine is parked in the villa garage, and Giorgio arrived .
Dressed in a black suit, long legs and upright posture, the amazing facial features are perfect and impeccable as if they were made by God.
As soon as he appeared, Stefanelli family took on a new look and added brilliance. The servants stood in a row, respectful and nymphomaniac said, "Hello, Mr. Vittorio."
Davide and Carla went downstairs to welcome him, their faces filled with anticipation.
“Giorgio has arrived,” Carla announced with enthusiasm. "Come on, let's go upstairs and have a look at Katherine."
With a cold hum, Giorgio took elegant steps and went upstairs.
In the room, the extra people have been sent away, leaving only Katherine lying on the bed.
Carla said, "Giorgio, you and Katherine haven't seen each other for a long time. Say something intimate. We’ll go prepare lunch."
Then, she gently pulled Davide away.
After others left, Giorgio sat by the bed and looked at Katherine, whose face was obviously alive, and his eyes held a hint of darkness.
For a long time, he tucked her in with a low voice, "Wake up soon, Katherine. Only when you wake up can we resolve the problem. "
Katherine stirred his fingers and apparently heard his voice, conscious.
Seeing her subtle reaction, Giorgio continued, "You hold the position of Mrs. Vittorio's position, and it's really you now. When you wake up, we'll talk. "
