A warm smile spread across my face as I spoke about my precious son.

"Dominic has surprised us all with how well he's adapted. At first, he was a bit hesitant and unsure of the grandeur surrounding him. But he's grown more comfortable now and the spacious rooms have become his playground. He enjoys exploring every nook and cranny."

Jessie's eyes sparkled with delight.

"That's wonderful to hear, Angela. Dominic is such a resilient little boy. I taught him very well."

She grinned with faux haughtiness.

I playfully rolled my eyes.

"He truly is. Having Dante by his side has made all the difference. Dante has been a devoted father, ensuring that Dominic feels safe and loved in this new environment. Their bond has strengthened, and I couldn't be happier."

A moment of silence passed between us before Jessie's gaze turned thoughtful.

"Angela, I can't help but worry about the dangers associated with Dante's world. How are you coping with that?"

My smile wavered slightly, the weight of my concerns surfacing.

"I won't deny that it's something that crosses my mind often, Jessie. The ties to the mafia are undeniable, and the risks are very real. But I believe in Dante's abilities and commitment to keeping us safe. He's taken extensive measures to ensure our security and is always one step ahead in handling any potential threats."

Jessie reached out, gently squeezing my hand.

"I understand your worries, Angela. But remember, you have your strength and intuition. Trust in yourself as well."

Her words resonated deeply within me, offering a glimmer of reassurance.

"Thank you, Jessie. Your support means the world to me.”

We sat in companionable silence for a moment, absorbing the weight of our shared concerns and hopes.

It was moments like these that reminded me of the importance of cherished friendships.

"Angela, no matter what happens, know that I'm here for you," Jessie said, her voice filled with sincerity.

Tears welled up in my eyes as I nodded, grateful for her everlasting support.

"Thank you, Jessie. Having you by my side means more than words can express. We'll face the uncertainties together, just as we always have."

As we kept talking, I felt a strong determination building inside me.

I knew I had to be careful and trust in Dante's world, but I also found comfort in the love and support that surrounded us.

Our conversation was interrupted by the sound of approaching footsteps.

Dante and another man strode into the foyer, their presence commanding attention.

Dante, the epitome of confidence, exuded a natural charisma.

His guest, on the other hand, carried an air of languidness and playfulness.

“Angela…Oh? Jessie?”

Dante greeted us when he saw us but I could tell that he was not surprised by Jessie’s appearance here.

While I had already asked if she could come over, and he had agreed, he hadn’t exactly known when she would arrive.

With the number of bodyguards in this mansion, I wouldn’t be surprised if one of them had informed him about her presence.
