Chapter 326 Willing to be His Girlfriend
Over here.
At the table outside the cell, two prison guards whispered to each other, "Did you know Mr. Victorio came today? And he is even more elegant in person than in the news. He is exceptionally successful."
"Mr. Victorio is also a good person. He came to visit his Uncle Joe on time. He is very emotional and filial."
"But Mr. Victorio is very ruthless toward others."
"What do you mean?"
"Just now, the boss thought Mr. Victorio was coming to see Anna. After all, they are relatives, so it's normal for him to take a look at her. But you know what? After the boss asked Mr. Victorio, he acted like he didn't know Anna at all. Mr. Victorio didn't say anything, went straight to Uncle Joe's side, and then left."
"Oh? This..."
"Shh, speak softly. Her situation is not good to begin with. Hearing these things, she probably can't understand it even more."
"All right."
Inside, on the other side of a wall, Anna had already heard it!
When she heard the news from Giorgio, stars lit up in her eyes. She got up and rushed to the door to listen carefully.
She thought Giorgio was coming to help her...
But the reality was like a cold knife stabbed into her heart, deep and heavy, causing a bone-piercing pain, with blood flowing inside that was icy and cold.
Strange, she knew she meant nothing to him. The high and mighty him definitely didn't want to have any association with a murderer.
So why did her heartache when she heard it?
"Door opening." The iron door opened.
A prison guard stood at the door and said, "Anna? Someone is requesting that you come over."
Fourth Prince?
Did he see Uncle Joe, whom Giorgio had seen before?
What does he want her to come over for?
Anna hadn't reacted yet when another prison guard arrived.
"Hold on, Giuseppe is here. He has already requested the documents. We have to take her over now."
"Oh? Okay, then let her see Giuseppe first."
In a state of confusion and sadness, Anna was brought to the visitation room.
She didn't have much emotion left, her heart was dead, and her figure was frail and thin.
In just a few days, she lost a lot of weight.
When Giuseppe saw her, his calm and gentle expression darkened, and his heart clenched for no apparent reason.
How did a perfectly fine person end up like this?
Almost instinctively, he walked over and gently placed his hand on her head.
"Miss Stefanelli, everything's okay. I'll take you out."
Out?
The sadness in Anna's eyes instantly disappeared. She looked up at Giuseppe in great surprise.
"Can I go out?" Obviously, she didn't have high hopes.
If Katherine couldn't help her, how could he?
"Okay," Giuseppe said firmly, "You see, I've already resolved the situation. I've also brought the release papers."
He said that he had taken out a document stamped with an official seal.
Black words on white paper, clear as day, indeed capable of securing her release from prison!
Anna couldn't believe it, taking the paper with excitement and trembling, "How did you do it? What happened?"
Giuseppe spoke softly, "Since I found out what happened to you, I investigated overnight, had an autopsy conducted, and finally discovered that the bodyguard died of acute heart disease, not from the abdominal wounds.
In other words, the leading cause of his death was intense exercise. Ben didn't check his physical condition when he hired him, so he was the main one responsible.
So, I talked to him and suppressed this matter, compensating the parents of the deceased with twenty million dollars. Once the parents of the deceased found out that their son died of a heart disease, they couldn't say anything more and took the money, ceasing to cause trouble."
So that's what happened!
It wasn't her who killed him!
She wasn't the culprit! She wasn't the murderer of that person.
God knows how scared and guilty she felt during these days, closing her eyes only to see the haunting image of the deceased, not finding peace.
Now, she didn't have to blame herself, didn't have to go to jail! She could go out and face the world and take care of Penny!
"That's great, thank you, thank you," Anna said excitedly, holding the release papers, tears flowing down her face.
Giuseppe looked at her.
The girl's delicate face was filled with excitement, gratitude, and joy. She seemed like an innocent teenager.
With those tears, he felt sorry for her.
Unexplainably, his thoughts were moved at this moment, and he changed his mind.
If he let someone like her fall in love with him, be by his side, it wouldn't be bad, would it?
Also, compared to the woman Uncle Nine liked, liking him seemed to be more torturous than being ruined in reputation.
A meaningful glint flashed in Giuseppe's eyes, and he cleared his throat.
"Miss Stefanelli, I am a businessman. I am also not pure-hearted. In helping you get out, I hope you can agree to one thing for me."
Anna knew that no one should help anyone else, especially since Giuseppe and she had no relationship.
Moreover, he had helped her ever since the incident, working tirelessly for several days and nights. She would be willing to do ten or a hundred things for him!
"Giuseppe, you're talking about a fake relationship, right? I agree. I'm willing to cooperate. Whenever it's convenient to end it, we can solve it then, even if it's a longer time."
Giuseppe pursed his lips and opened his mouth.
"No, I hope Miss Stefanelli can be my girlfriend. We can try living together for six months and then truly get married."
What, what?
Be his girlfriend! Get married!
Anna was shocked, her eyes widening. "Giuseppe, how can you suddenly think like this?"
Giuseppe, composed and serious, said, "I have some thoughts that shouldn't be there, and I am at the age to marry. I do need a girlfriend. And Miss Stefanelli, we are already in a relationship, so I want to give it a try."
Miss Stefanelli didn't need to feel pressured. In the next six months, they could try dating and getting along. He wouldn't force her if she didn't like him after six months.
How about it?"
He was polite and gentlemanly, not imposing.
But morally, Anna had no reason to refuse.
He had saved her ten years ago, and now he only asked for half a year of her time, which was already generous and a gift.
Moreover, she used to see him as a shameless scoundrel.
But after the incident, he actively helped her and directly saved her life.
Perhaps she should change her view, and half a year wouldn't be too much.
"Okay."
...
That day, Giuseppe takes Anna out of prison.
"Could you please take me back to the Stefanelli family?" she couldn't wait to see Penny.
Giuseppe glanced at her. "Change your clothes first, and then have something to eat. I heard you haven't eaten for these four to five days. Do you want to starve yourself?"
"I...I just can't eat. I feel like I've been facing prison walls for ten years, and I don't know how to survive," Anna said, her nose tingling with sourness.
Giuseppe was speechless.
In fact, he had investigated the matter and found out everything the next day.
Katherine lured Wendy into gambling and wanted her to lose so she could sell Anna. But things got out of control and became complicated. Katherine made a plan to let Anna serve a ten-year sentence.
He obtained the relevant evidence on the second night and could have rescued her as soon as possible, but he deliberately delayed it, waiting for the right moment.
Now, looking at her emaciated body and small face, he lifted his lips.
"Sorry I came late."
"No, no, you're my biggest benefactor. I'm really grateful to you," Anna said, wiping away the tears in the corners of her eyes.
"Giuseppe, there's something I want to tell you."
"Hmm? What is it?"
