Chapter 528 Anna, I'm Sorry
Thinking of the recent topic Sara and Lucia mentioned, Anna's heart skipped a beat when she saw his calling.
She took a deep breath, trying to steady her breathing before answering the phone. "Giorgio, I'm about to catch a cab."
"Sorry, Anna." At the same time, Giorgio's voice came through.
He said in a steady and deep voice, "Something came up last minute. I might be a bit late."
Instantly, Anna's heart sank.
Although she didn't expect anything to happen between them, they had made plans, and she had dressed up and done her makeup, only for him to delay.
"Alright." Her voice was a bit downcast.
Giorgio's voice softened. "I'll try to finish early and get there as soon as I can."
"Okay." Anna nodded.
After hanging up, she comforted herself. Giorgio was not only the heir to the Vittorio family but also the CEO of Vittorio Group, handling countless affairs daily. It was normal for something to come up last minute, no need to be upset.
She then took a cab to the hospital.
"Mommy! You're here!" Penny's eyes lit up as soon as she saw her, staring at the door and asking, "Where's future daddy and Charlie?"
Hearing that, Anna felt a bit guilty, her voice gentle and soothing. "Mr. Vittorio had something come up last minute, and he said he'll be here later. But don't worry, Penny, he will bring you a gift."
"Penny was obviously a bit disappointed, "Then when I see him, if the gift is nice, I'll forgive him."
Anna said, "Good girl. Mommy will take you for a walk downstairs."
"Okay!"
Anna carefully placed Penny in the wheelchair and pushed her out.
Penny was well-behaved and adorable, and Anna herself had a perfect figure. Even with a mask on, she exuded a lively elegance.
Along the way, many people turned to look at them.
"Which man is lucky enough to have such a beautiful wife and well-behaved daughter?"
"If she's divorced, I'd marry her even if she has a daughter."
However, Anna didn't pay attention to those comments.
She pushed Penny to the pond.
Penny tilted her little head up, beaming. "Mommy, it seems those men fell in love with you at first sight."
"Penny. All love at first sight is just attraction to looks." Anna gently pinched her little face, carefully teaching her, "So remember, any boy who says he likes you at first sight is not a good person."
Penny responded faintly, seeming to understand but not fully grasping it, then asked, "Mommy, who is my daddy? You've never told me."
Anna's throat tightened at the question, then she said, "Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
Penny replied, "Because I want to see who is so lucky to have us as his family. And if he doesn't take responsibility, I won't acknowledge him! From now on, Mr. Vittorio will be my daddy!"
Anna wanted to tell Penny that Giorgio was indeed her biological father.
But this matter can't be known by anyone.
Anna kissed Penny's forehead apologetically. "Good girl, it's all in the past. Let's not bring it up. You like Mr. Vittorio, right? Just think of him as your daddy."
Hearing that, Penny was upset. She didn't understand why mommy never talked about daddy.
Even though her future daddy was great and handsome, she still wanted to know what her biological father was like.
But she never wanted to make Mommy unhappy, so she just skipped the topic.
"Okay! Got it!" Penny nodded.
After that, Anna pushed her around the pond for a long time before returning to the ward.
To her surprise, Penny had fallen asleep and it was already 9:30 PM.
She was also feeling a bit sleepy, but there was still no news from Giorgio.
Anna quietly stepped out of the ward, intending to call Giorgio
"Hey, Anna, what a coincidence?" At that moment, a familiar voice suddenly sounded.
Anna turned to see the beautifully dressed Katherine and the suit-clad Giuseppe, her face darkening.
Her hatred for Katherine was beyond words. As for Giuseppe, she used to think highly of him, but later, he cooperated with Katherine in her act in front of the public. Anna couldn't figure out the reason behind.
However, since she decided to bide her time and gather evidence, Anna had to play her part on the surface.
She said, "Katherine, Giuseppe, what are you doing here?"
Katherine walked over with a smile. "Prenatal checkup. I'm pregnant, remember?"
Pregnant?
Wasn't that just an act?
"You don't think it's fake, do you?" Katherine asked, seeing through Anna's thoughts, then explained,
"I am indeed pregnant. So Anna, I just want to be a good mother now and live well with Giuseppe. Can we let bygones be bygones?" She said it in a getle and sincere tone, with a friendly smile on her dace.
Hearing that, Anna's heart trembled.
Really pregnant!
Well, she had indeed seen them together several times, so pregnancy was only natural. But she didn't know how Giuseppe would handle Olivia's child.
And given Katherine's pregnancy, Anna doubted if she could be ruthless enough to deal with Katherine.
No, she wouldn't trust this hypocritical person!
If Katherine had any maternal love, she wouldn't have tried to kill Anna and harm Elodie!
Despite her hatred for Katherine deep down, Anna remained indifferent on the surface, saying, "Congratulations, as long as you don't bother me, I don't want to bring up the past either."
Hearing that, Katherine relaxed.
Now that Anna had Giorgio's support, she was worried Anna might use him for something.
It seemed she was still the same naive Anna.
She cracked a fake smile and said, "Thank you. By the way, Giorgio is at the old mansion with Lola today. As your sister, I'm kindly reminding you, Lola is not as simple as me. At least, Giorgio seems to appreciate and like her. Be careful."
With that, she left with Giuseppe, leaving Anna to stand there in a daze.
Giorgio said he had something come up last minute, was it to go to the old mansion with Lola?
'No, don't let Katherine's words get to you!' Anna told herself. Then she took out her phone and dialed.
The emotionless voice came through. "Sorry, the number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable, please try again later."
Hung up?
Soon, a message popped up.
[Almost done, wait for me.]
So busy he didn't even have time to answer the phone, see, Katherine was lying.
Then she decided to browse the news to pass the time, only to see the top trending topic.
#Giorgio Lola#
There were also captions below.
[At 7 PM, Giorgio and Lola returned to the old mansion together. It's said that Mrs. Viviana Vittorio likes Lola very much and seems to want to match them up.]
[And the women who have been to the old mansion with Mr. Vittorio are very few.]
[Are they dating? Will the dating app still count?]
Below the news, there were photos of the two getting out of the car and entering the old mansion together.
They looked just like a powerful match, their temperaments perfectly aligned.
In the comments, many couple fans were already shouting.
[Be together! Be together!][they must be together!]
Anna's face stiffened after reading.
He really went to the old mansion with Lola?
From 7 PM until now, he had been together with Lola, not answering her calls.
