Chapter 63 Getting Married at the End of the Month.
It was an order.
Since childhood, Giorgio had always been outstanding in both his grades and abilities. As his father, Matteo had never given any orders, let alone said anything harsh.
The serious words delivered over the phone early in the morning made Giorgio furrow his brow.
"What's going on? Did Katherine complain to you?"
"Complain? Are you implying that you treated her poorly?" Matteo's face grew dark, followed by a lecture:
"Giorgio, back then you said you wanted to break off the engagement, and we agreed despite the pressure from others. But the result was that you treated her poorly, causing her to give birth at the age of 19. Have you reflected on how indifferent you've been to her these past few years? Are you a responsible man? Now, the election has started, and you know my thoughts and purposes. Katherine is Viviana's lifesaver, and you should understand the interests involved. So, you must marry her. This is an order, not a negotiation."
The call ended. Even though Giorgio led the Vittorio crime family now, his father still had control over him. .
Giorgio furrowed his brow, when did Katherine become Viviana's lifesaver? Why had he never heard her mention it?
Regardless, even though Matteo's words were not pleasant, they made sense. A glimmer of rationality and composure flashed through his deep eyes. After a moment, he lifted the covers and got out of bed, dialing Little Tony's number:
"Get ready to drive, we're heading to the hospital."
At the hospital.
Katherine lay quietly in the cold hospital room, looking very desolate.
Anna had a date with Simon today, but since it was still early, he hadn't arrived yet. She came to visit Katherine on the way and couldn't help but sigh at the miserable scene in the hospital room.
"Oh my lord, Mr. Vittorio is really heartless. He doesn't even come to accompany his girlfriend when she's injured. You're really pitiful."
Katherine glared at her sister, Are you here to make fun of me? Let me tell you, it's because of your stupid idea that Giorgio dislikes me! Otherwise, he wouldn't treat me this way!"
Anna rolled her eyes,"Are you logical at all? There's nothing wrong with trying to please him, it's just that he doesn't know how to be gentle. And it's not like you can't find a boyfriend, why does it have to be him? He's an old, cold, and uninteresting man! Let me tell you, younger men are great, considerate and gentle. If you've tried those, you won't like those cold-hearted men anymore. I genuinely advise you to find a new husband, you'll be happy."
Although she didn't like Katherine, she sympathized with her as a woman.
Katherine paled after hearing Anna's words.
She looked towards the direction behind Anna, her lips pressed tightly, wanting to speak but hesitating...
Anna furrowed her brow, "What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Those kinds of men are cold, arrogant, and self-centered...If he were my boyfriend, I would have kicked him into the Pacific Ocean a long time ago."
Just as she finished speaking, she felt a chill on her back and turned around, only to see Giorgio standing behind her with a furious expression.
"When did you come over?"
At this moment, Giorgio exuded an anger that no one dared to come near.
Yesterday, Katherine taught her to please him, and she could tolerate being scolded in front of him, but today she dared to talk about him behind his back!
"Old and boring? Playboy? Arrogant and conceited?"
Anna instantly felt embarrassed for badmouthing someone behind their back.
"Well, I... "
"What about you? You were so bold in criticizing just now, and now you're stuttering? Hm?" Giorgio retorted again, taking a step forward. With his nearly 1.9 meters in height, he seemed to want to devour her, who appeared so small.
Anna almost couldn't breathe.
When this man turned cold, he was terrifying! He hadn't done anything yet, just questioning her, but it made her feel the breath of death.
Her eyes flickered, and she instantly found an excuse to explain, "You misunderstood! I was just speaking in a dream! Goodbye."
After finishing her sentence, she stepped forward and ran!
However, Little Tony, who was at the door, blocked her way.
Just now, he heard Anna defaming and mocking Mr. Vittorio's words clearly. Without commands from Mr. Vittorio, he wouldn't let her leave.
In his eyes, this woman should have her tongue cut off!
"Mr. Vittorio, how should we handle this?"
With dark eyes and a cold face, Giorgio coldly replied, "Teach her a lesson and then throw her out."
"Yes, Mr. Vittorio!" Little Tony understood his instructions and pulled Anna away.
Anna didn't know what he was going to do and panicking, she hurriedly explained, "Giorgio, what are you letting him do to me? Let go of me!"
"I know I was wrong, I will never speak the truth again! Let go of me!"
No matter how she shouted, the man remained cold and unresponsive.
Katherine witnessed all of this and felt a bit of schadenfreude. Giorgio hated women who talked too much.
But she didn't show it naturally and said, "Giorgio, Anna is straightforward and was speaking up for me out of kindness. Please don't be angry with her."
Giorgio's icy gaze looked at her indifferently, "Speaking up for you? Do you also feel that you have been wronged by me, Katherine? From the very beginning, I told you not to expect love from me, you shouldn't cross the line."
He was referring to what happened yesterday, which was a reprimand.
Giorgio had once said that once she crossed the line, the relationship would end.
After hearing this, Katherine nervously said, "No, Giorgio, that's not what I meant. I truly love you and just wanted to gain a little bit of your love and care, so I tried to move your heart. I was wrong, I will never make you angry again, and I won't expect those acts of love from you anymore. Please give me another chance."
Looking at her reflection with remorse, Giorgio heartlessly said, "If there is a next time, don't blame me for not showing mercy."
"I won't. You go ahead and busy yourself. After I change my medication, I will also return to the set," Katherine said, afraid of provoking Giorgio, otherwise she would lose everything.
Compared to his heart, she needed Mrs. Vittorio's position more!
Giorgio said coldly, "Finish your work early and come back to Crownhaven at the end of the month to get married."
Married!
Katherine widened her eyes in astonishment, quickly understanding that last night's phone call with Viviana Vittorio had worked. She felt relieved that Viviana Vittorio still believed that she was the one who saved her life!
From now on, as long as she returned to Crownhaven to marry and solidify everything, everything would be resolved.
As for the true savior being Anna, that would remain a secret forever!
After Giorgio left Katherine's room, he saw Anna standing at the end of the corridor with a cold look in her eyes.
He took a step and walked straight towards her--
