Chapter 314 The Weight of Gaze: Unspoken Tensions
Only because Giorgio, who was standing next to him, was staring at Anna with cold and frosty eyes.
His aura was incredibly heavy.
"Giorgio, on another note, Anna was first with Simon, and then with Giuseppe. It seems like she really likes the gentle type. No wonder she didn't... with you..."
As Tom spoke, he suddenly sensed the atmosphere around him grow heavy, almost like the ominous presence of death drawing near.As he spoke, Tom suddenly felt the air around him drop, like the approach of death.
He turned his head and saw Giorgio's exceptionally cold face, and immediately closed his mouth.
"I didn't say anything. Uh, I'm going to find Simon."
After speaking, he hurriedly left.left in a hurry.
Giorgio stood tall and cold in the same spot, with his slender fingers tightening. The wine glass in his hand emitted a faint friction sound.
In the room before, he was clear and rational about her every word and action. There was no need to care about anything concerning her.
But... she was still getting along intimately with Giuseppe, even deceiving Giuseppe's own brother.
She indeed had the ability to captivate men.
Annoyance and anger welled up within him, causing his expression to darken further. His presence exuded an undeniable strength that couldn't be ignored.A sense of annoyance and anger arose in his heart, and his face grew darker.
His aura was too strong to be ignored.
Anna sensed a cold aura and subconsciously looked over, seeing Giorgio standing among the crowd in front of a large statue.
He was dressed in an expensive black handmade suit, with a black shirt underneath. The wristwatch on his wrist was also black. He appeared extremely cold and distant.
With just one glance, she felt small and looked up at him in admiration. However, her heart tightened with a mix of emotions, and she quickly averted her gaze.Just one glance made her feel tiny, looking up in admiration.
Her heart tightened and she quickly averted her gaze.
Why was he staring at her? Why did she have a feeling of guilt?
"Anna, it's your turn again," Giuseppe reminded her.
Anna awkwardly snapped back to reality, trying hard to ignore Giorgio's presence, and asked in surprise, "Is it my turn again? What's the word?"
This time, Anna responded swiftly, determined not to lose again. However, what followed was worse than losing. Her words had barely left her lips when a low, cold voice cut through the air.This time, Anna answered quickly. She couldn't afford to lose again.
However, she didn't expect it to be worse than losing!
Her words had just fallen when a low and cold voice sounded.
"Seeing you all having fun, I find myself with nothing to do. Would you mind if I joined?""Watching you all have fun, I happen to have nothing to do. Do you mind if I join?"
The man who arrived had a slender figure and a noble temperament. Just by standing here, he exuded an air of nobility.
Mr. Vittorio!
Mr. Vittorio actually said he had nothing to do? There were plenty of people he could greet! And when did Mr. Vittorio start participating in such entertainment games?
Everyone present was surprised, their eyes wide open.
Giuseppe squinted his eyes, understanding Giorgio's intention better than anyone else. He stood up and said, "Of course we don't mind. It's our honor to play games with Giorgio."
The others quickly regained their senses and invited Giorgio to take a seat. "Hmm, Mr. Vittorio, please have a seat."
"It's rare to see Mr. Vittorio entertain himself like this. Tonight is our lucky night."
"We must take a photo to remember this moment."
"Mr. Vittorio, please sit here."
One of the individuals near Anna quickly shifted to make space for Giorgio, who happened to be standing beside an empty seat.
Thus, amidst the warm and friendly invitations from everyone present, Giorgio took his place.One of the people by Anna's side moved to the other side, which happened to have an empty seat.
And so...
Under everyone's warm and friendly invitation, Giorgio took a seat.
As soon as he sat down, an invisible pressure and a unique and pleasant smell of wood drifted into the air.
Anna tensed up. What...game is he here to play?
Anna felt a strong reluctance to engage in games with Giorgio or sit beside him.She didn't want to, truly didn't want to play games with him or sit next to him.
She didn't dare to make any movements out of uneasiness, clasping her hands together and slightly curling up due to nervousness.
"It seems that Miss Stefanelli mentioned the profoundness before, right? Miss Stefanelli?" Unexpectedly, a deep and magnetic voice, full of hidden meaning, sounded.
Anna fell silent, her thoughts and feelings swirling within her.
Anna: "..."
Why did he have to ask someone else? Why ask her? Why did it feel like he deliberately came to target her?
She forced out a response, "Um... it's your turn, Mr. Vittorio. Go to your right side in order."
She hoped he would look over there and talk to someone else.
But little did she know...
Giorgio narrowed his dark eyes, lifted his lips, and said, "Profoundness is a good word. Miss Stefanelli understands a lot. Since that's the case... let's go deeper."
His deliberately deep voice carried an inexplicable flirtatiousness!
Instantly, a normal word became quite abnormal to Anna because of how he said it.
She choked on her own saliva, her face turning as red as an apple.
The other wealthy kids on the side stared at her in astonishment.
Did they mishear? Or was the atmosphere at tonight's party toxic? The typically aloof and noble Mr. Vittorio had uttered such profound words, directed at Anna, his nephew's girlfriend!Did they mishear? Or was this party tonight toxic? The aloof and noble Mr. Vittorio actually spoke such deep words, and to Anna, his nephew's girlfriend!
No, it must be their misunderstanding! Mr. Vittorio definitely didn't mean it that way!
The next person in the game took a sip of their drink, suppressed their pounding heart, and followed up with the next word.
The others quickly adjusted their emotions and dared not think in a certain direction, continuing to play the game.
Anna sat on the side, calm and composed.
She tried to reassure herself, repeating in her mind that it was just a game. Perhaps his words and intentions were simply her overthinking the situation.Just a game, it's just a game. Were his words and intentions just her overthinking?
If she continued to stay by his side, she would suffocate!
"Sorry, you guys go on playing. I'm going to the bathroom," Anna said, standing up and leaving directly.
Giorgio's deep gaze swept over her figure, enveloped in a thick mist, dangerous.
Giuseppe looked at him and smiled like a gentleman, saying, "Giorgio, so what do you think? Do you find Anna interesting? I have been surprised by her many gestures during the time I've spent with her. It turns out there are such interesting and fun women in the world."
Giorgio glanced at him, his cold gaze falling on Giuseppe's face. "Fun?"
"Yes," Giorgio replied calmly. "Sometimes she's like an obedient and affectionate cat, other times like a prickly rose, and often like Pandora's box. Every time you open it, there's a new kind of fascination. And how is Katherine, the woman you chose to marry?""Yes.. Sometimes she acts like an obedient and clingy cat, sometimes like a thorny rose, and most of the time like Pandora's box. Every time you open it, there is a different kind of enjoyment. How is Katherine, the woman you married?"
Giuseppe's expression softened and he had a smile on his lips, as if he was talking about an extremely rare treasure. Being a rich man's son, he had this kind of attitude towards anything that interested him.
Under the illumination of the lights, Giorgio's handsome face was covered with a layer of frost. He stared coldly at Giuseppe and said, "She is not a plaything you can just toy with. Keep your thoughts in check."
His voice carried a chilling undertone, a clear warning in his words. With that, he stood up, adjusted his tie with precision, and swiftly departed in long strides. He left behind a lingering aura of coldness and danger, casting a tense atmosphere in his wake.His voice was chilling, a warning. With those words, he got up, adjusted his tie, and left in big strides, leaving behind a cold and dangerous atmosphere.
The other rich kids nearby were puzzled. "What's going on?"
"Weren't they getting along just fine?"
"Giuseppe, what did you do to offend Giorgio?"
Giuseppe smiled knowingly and remarked, "Oh, nothing serious. Just pulling Giorgio's leg. Let's carry on."Giuseppe smiled deeply and said, "Nothing, just played a joke on Giorgio. Let's continue."
...
In the restroom, it was calm and quiet, in stark contrast to the luxurious clamor outside. Anna had originally planned to wash her face with cold water to calm her emotions. But when she walked up to the sink, she saw her made-up self for tonight.
Her face, which was usually accustomed to being bare, now had delicate makeup, fair skin, and red lips. It couldn't be ignored that her cheeks had turned red, like a shy young girl.
Damn it, why did she have to blush at his words?
She turned on the water and ran her hands under the cold stream, quickly rinsing them. In her heart, she made a silent resolution: after tonight, she needed to have a serious discussion with Giuseppe about finding a solution to the situation and making plans to leave as soon as possible.She turned on the water and put her hands under it, quickly rinsing them with cold water. In her heart, she secretly made a decision: after tonight, she must discuss with Giuseppe a solution to this problem and leave as soon as possible.
Only by leaving could she completely distance herself from Giorgio.
"Bang!" Suddenly, there was a slight noise of a door.
Anna was startled and turned her head to look, only to see… -
