Chapter 55 Burst Out At Night
Anna stood up excitedly, "Has my grandmother's condition improved?"
Katherine walked up to her, her lips curling, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear:
"Has her condition improved? I think you should know that if it weren't for me, your grandmother would have died long ago. And now, how are you treating me? Do you have the nerve to ask that question? Anna, distance yourself from Giorgio not only in words, but also in actions. If something like last night happens again, I won't treat your grandmother anymore."
It was a warning, as well as a threat.
Anna hated being threatened the most. She had to find another way to deal with her grandmother's illness. But who knew what craze Giorgio had last night, insisting on staying at her house? It was not a good scene, but she didn’t want to make a scene.
"Okay, I don't want that either. Instead of constantly warning me, why don't you try to please your man, so that I don't have to be affected every time? Also, could it be that you're just too flat and lack charm? Should I recommend a breast enlargement clinic to you?"
Katherine blushed upon hearing that, feeling utterly ashamed! Since childhood, as the heiress to a prominent family, she had been very strict with her diet and maintained a rigorous body management routine, resulting in not a trace of excess fat on her body, to the point where her development was not even full. On the other hand, Anna, in all the right places, had flesh that was plump and curves that were captivating, exuding femininity.
Katherine clenched her teeth and said, "Shut up, Giorgio is not such a superficial man."
Thinking back to that night six years ago, Anna couldn't help but smile to herself. Katherine truly doesn't understand her fiancé at all.
Footsteps sounded from downstairs.
Immediately, Katherine put away her hateful and disdainful attitude like a quick-change artist in Sichuan opera, and put on a friendly facade.
"Anna, I haven't really cared about you because of work before, and I was wrong to be angry at you. This is your grandmother's medical information. I specially asked the doctor for it, and I have also covered all the medical expenses. You don't have to worry, she will be fine."
Her voice was gentle, her attitude friendly, and her heart kind. It was a pity she's not an actress.
Anna smiled falsely and said, "Okay, thank you."
Giorgio had previously heard from Little Tony about Katherine paying for Anna's grandmother's medical expenses. Now, looking at the thick documents in Katherine's hands, his gaze softened slightly.
It seems that she is still kind-hearted. Viviana's judgment must not be wrong.
He walked to the garden gate with an elegant stride and said, "Bring the notebook to the garden and video call Viviana."
Katherine smiled sweetly, "Okay, I also want to see Viviana. I'll go get it right away."
Charlie stood in place, raising his little head to look at Anna, "Anna, Viviana is a very kind and lovely person. Do you want to meet her?"
The little guy must be afraid that she would be lonely on her own.
But her presence doesn't fit well with their family affairs.
"It's alright. I still need to tidy up and prepare some handmade materials for you. Just go ahead."
"Okay."
Soon, the 'family of three' sat in the garden, making a video call to the elderly person in Crownhaven using their laptop.
In the video, Viviana's hair was slightly curled, her skin fair and delicate. Despite being 75 years old, she wore light and delicate makeup and appeared elegant and beautiful.
Giorgio's grandmother, Viviana Vittorio, had left an indelible mark on old Hollywood as a beloved actress, enchanting audiences with her timeless beauty and talent. From her elegant poise to her captivating performances, she seemed destined for stardom. Yet, behind the glitz and glamour, there lay a veil of mystery surrounding her past. Giorgio often found himself captivated by the stories he heard about her, both from her films and family tales.
Among those tales was the intriguing account of Viviana's marriage to a powerful mafia boss. It was a side of her life that she seldom spoke about, and Giorgio could only piece together fragments from hushed conversations and old photographs. His grandfather had died young, they had never met. But he had created the mafia empire Giorgio now handled. The contrast between the dazzling world of Hollywood and the shadowy realm of the mafia fascinated him. He wondered how his elegant, silver screen grandmother had navigated such different worlds, each one a world apart from the other.
As Giorgio delved deeper into his family's history, he found himself in awe of Viviana's resilience and strength. She seemed like a woman of contradictions - a graceful actress adored by the masses, and a fiercely determined woman who faced life's challenges head-on. The enigmatic stories of her past stirred his imagination, making him yearn to uncover the truth behind the myths and legends that surrounded her. In doing so, he hoped to connect with the essence of the woman who had been so much more than just a glamorous actress and mafia boss's wife.
He had loved her so much since he had been a child. Even now, he loved her more than he loved his own mother.
Upon seeing her, Katherine immediately showed a lovely smile, "Viviana, it's been so long since we've seen each other, and you look even more beautiful."
Women love beauty, even the elderly. Viviana smiled and responded, "We all age, but still manage to look beautiful. You always have the sweetest words, and Grandma loves it. Giorgio, with such a good wife, you must treasure her. How is your relationship now? No problems, right?"
This question was directed at Giorgio.
Katherine anticipated the question and quickly showed a smile, taking the initiative to link arms with Giorgio. "Viviana, Giorgio and I are very much in love. We even live in the same villa now. You can rest assured, there won't be any problems, right Giorgio?"
Viviana's gaze also fell on Giorgio.
The feelings between him and Katherine have always been plain and respectful, neither good nor bad, but it is hard to say if they are affectionate... And now, with Katherine deliberately getting closer, he subconsciously resisted.
Raising his gaze, he scanned Anna in the living room. She was diligently cleaning and tidying the house, seemingly unaffected and unconcerned about his closeness with Katherine.
This realization left him feeling displeased.
