Chapter 240 She Doesn't Care
On the rooftop, the ground was strewn with fresh flowers and candles, and above, stars hung like lights, more grandiose than the birthday party he had organized for her before.
In the midst of the flowers, a white figure sat elegantly, her slender fingers dancing on the piano, striking beautiful and moving notes.
Beautiful, elegant, gorgeous, graceful... At this moment, all these adjectives seemed dull and dim.
Giorgio's eyes narrowed, a deep, indescribable light floated up from the bottom of his eyes.
Approximately three minutes later, the song ended.
The woman elegantly stood up, took the gift box from the table, stepped on her high heels, and slowly walked towards Giorgio.
Every step she took was full of grace, revealing the manners of a well-bred lady.
She stopped at a distance very close to him, raised her hand and handed out the gift box: "Giorgio, a gift for you."
It was a black-patterned scented sachet, lying in the exquisite gift box, making it look even more delicate.
Giorgio looked at her, and his lips parted, "Where is Anna?"
As soon as he spoke, it was sharp and direct, making Little Tony incredulous, his eyes wide.
Wasn't the woman here Anna? Could it be...
Katherine was even more surprised. She looked exactly like Anna, and even her clothes today were deliberately taken from her wardrobe. How could Giorgio recognize her at a glance?
More importantly, after recognizing her, his first reaction was not surprise, but to ask about Anna's whereabouts?!
Her smile cooled. "Is it only her you care about? I am your wife, the mother of your son. I wake up, and you have nothing to say to me?"
Giorgio didn't like her aggressive posture, nor being questioned. His face was cold.
"You're standing here, aren't you fine? Do I need to announce to the world that you're awake?"
His casual counter-question left Katherine choked and speechless.
Giorgio asked again, "Where is she?"
His voice was colder than before he was clearly displeased.
Katherine composed herself, her calm gaze on the god-like, indifferent man. In her mind, the events of the afternoon flashed by.
Originally, she planned to have the 'dedicated driver' send Anna and Penny back to Vista Heights, but Simon suddenly arrived at the Stefanelli family, and took the two of them away directly.
However, she naturally wouldn't tell Giorgio that she forced Anna away.
She said, "As soon as I woke up, I called her, wanting to discuss a perfect replacement strategy together, but she was very happy and contacted Simon immediately. Simon quickly went to the Stefanelli family and took her and Penny away. She should be with Simon now.
By the way, that gift just now was also from her. She asked me to give it to you as a thank you and a favor. She said it's a clean slate between you two."
A clean slate?
She thought it was simple, leaving so decisively! Was she so eager to return to Simon's side? She didn't want to stay even one night? She wasn’t even willing to spend time saying goodbye?
Giorgio felt a strong irritation in his heart, and his handsome face turned even colder.
"I'm going to see Charlie."
Leaving his words behind, he turned and walked away, ready to leave.
"Giorgio." Katherine suddenly softened, stepped forward and hugged his waist, her head leaning against his back:
"Giorgio, don't go. I was just too eager to see you, and when I saw that you didn't care about me at all, I lost control of my emotions. I'm sorry; I really love you.
Do you know, when I was lying unconscious in bed, I wasn't afraid of anything, I was just afraid of never waking up, never seeing you, never seeing Charlie.
Don't leave... I just want to hold you for a while, just a while..."
The woman let down all her defenses at this moment. She was fragile, pitiful, weak.
Any man would be reluctant to push her away.
But, Giorgio never thought he had feelings for Katherine. If it wasn't for that night four years ago, he would have broken off their engagement a long time ago. This wedding was also unexpected.
He indifferently raised his hand, loosened her hands, turned around, and looked at her with an extraordinarily deep gaze.
"Katherine, we need to talk."
Talk.
What would they talk about at this time?
Katherine was curious and puzzled. She had never seen Giorgio with such a serious and deep gaze. She had a bad feeling.
She didn't want to break their current relationship and status, so she tried to smile.
"Giorgio, I just woke up today, and I'm quite tired. Charlie doesn't seem too happy either; you should go see Charlie first. We can talk another day."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Upon hearing the words ' Charlie doesn't seem too happy', Giorgio's gaze deepened and he returned to his room.
Sure enough, in the dim room, Charlie was sitting in a corner of the bed, his face drooping, obviously very unhappy.
Suddenly losing Penny and his favorite Anna, his heart must indeed be suffering.
He stepped forward and comforted him softly, "When you miss her, you can video call or watch her livestream."
Charlie lifted his little head, his pitiful eyes looking at Giorgio, his voice choked, "I'm not upset that Anna left, and I don't mind that Anna left, I just... just that Anna left without saying goodbye. She left without a word, Anna doesn't care about me... wu wu~~"
As he spoke, he started crying.
Giorgio's eyes darkened; wasn't this exactly what he was feeling? It was harsh and heart-wrenching.
His eyebrows frosted over as his hand fell on Charlie's head.
"Maybe there were other reasons why she didn't have time to say goodbye. If it really is as you said, why bother being sad for someone who doesn't care about you? Hmm?"
Charlie's crying paused. His red eyes were looking at Giorgio... it seemed to make sense...
All along, Giorgio had also taught him not to waste thoughts and energy on people who were not worth it, and there was no need to be bothered by irrelevant people.
But... when he thought of Anna, he was still sad!!
"Wah wah wah~~"
His loud crying filled the mansion.
Katherine was in the corridor. The conversation between the two of them stopped her in her tracks, her beautiful eyes dimmed, and her hand clenched tightly.
It was one thing for Giorgio to feel differently about Anna, but why was Charlie, a little child, so bewitched by Anna that he was crying his heart out?!
A streak of viciousness flashed in her eyes. She went downstairs, left, got into the car, took out her phone, and dialed her agent's number.
"Send out the pictures I sent you, make it clean."
The agent was slightly stunned, then reacted, excitedly saying, "Katherine, it's been a long time since you called me for a task. I thought I was unemployed."
Katherine thought about asking about the situation, but then thought that not contacting the agent should be Giorgio and Anna's strategy, indicating that nothing happened during this period, she didn't need to do anything extra.
The fewer people who knew, the less danger.
"I've been too busy with my honeymoon but starting tomorrow, resume my work."
"Alright, Katherine!"
About twenty minutes later, Giorgio and Katherine hit the trending list.
#Mr. Vittorio and Katherine's rooftop date#
It was a set of drone-shot photos. The entire rooftop was beautiful and dreamy; the two figures weren't high-definition, but it was clear that the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. In their suits and dresses; they looked like a scene from a comic.
The news said that it was accidentally shot by a drone. The two looked very affectionate on the rooftop, and Katherine even played a piano piece for Giorgio.
Netizens exploded.
"Oh my god, a date on their own rooftop! So romantic!"
"I also want such a big rooftop, no, I also want such a handsome and romantic husband!"
The internet was abuzz.
Off the internet, Anna looked at the photo on her phone, causing her eyes to dim.
He and Katherine were a good match.
More importantly...
