"Mommy, Daddy promised he would cto meet us today," Gia whined, her blue eyes wide with innocent hope

as she looked up at Mia.

"Sweetie, Daddy might be busy at the office," Mia coaxed gently, her fingers running through Gia's soft, blond

locks.

"But you said he would cif we had dinner on time. Now dinner is over, and he still hasn't come," Gia

complained, her little face forming a pout of disappointment.

Mia sighed, her brow furrowing as she gazed at her daughter. She couldn't understand why Alessandro hadn't

shown up. He never broke his promises, especially not te Gia and Maximo. What could have kept him so

occupied? She debated calling him, wanting to know, yet hesitant to pry into his business.

s presence

After yesterday's harrowing incident, Mia grappled with conflicting thoughts about Alessandro's in her children's

lives. While they craved a father figure, having someone like him around also meant living under a constant

shadow of danger and threats to their safety. "I'm going to call him," Gia declared stubbornly.

"Sweetie, no..." Mia tried to stop her, but Gia didn't wait and snatched the phone from the bedside table, dialing

Alessandro's number. The phone continued to ring, and Gia waited with hope in her heart. After several rings,

Alessandro finally answered the phone, "Hello?!"

Gia's face brightened upon hearing Alessandro's deep voice.

"Daddy!" she called out loudly in excitement. Despite being on the phone and needing to speak softly, her

enthusiasm spilled over.

"Gia! Sweetheart, why aren't you in bed yet?" Alessandro asked, frowning and checking his wristwatch.

"Daddy, you promisedyou would cto seetoday and that we would talk a lot," Gia complained, her

disappointment evident. "Sweetie," Alessandro sighed, rubbing his forehead, I'm busy with work."

"But you promised," Gia pressed.

"I know, Gia, but work is important, Alessandro snapped curtly.

Gia flinched at the harshness in his voice. She didn't expect her daddy to speak to her like this. She was his

princess, a piece of his heart. How could he be so distant?

"Daddy. Her voice trembled, tears pooling in her innocent eyes. "L... | was missing you," she whispered softly, her

words carrying the weight of longing

Alessandro's heart constricted with pain. He cursed himself for hurting his princess. He longed so badly to tell

her how much he missed her too, but he couldn't. He was trying to be hard on her so she could forget about him.

He was a live danger in Gia and Maximo's life, and he couldn't bear it if anything happened to them because of

him. So he decided to cut ties and keep his distance from those whom he loved more than his life.

"Gia. | have to go. | have work. And don't callevery time, okay?" His voice was curt as he ordered ruthlessly.

He knew his words would hurt her and she might already be sobbing, and the thought pierced his heart.

Despite it being his plan, it tore at him knowing he was causing his princess such pain.

Without waiting for her response, he abruptly ended the call, his finger pressing the button almost reluctantly. He

had to hang up before he could soften, before he could beg for her forgiveness for his seeming heartlessness.

Gia stared blankly at the phone, tears streaming down her cheeks uncontrollably. Maximo, who had witnessed

the scene unfold before him, narrowed his eyes and clenched his jaw as he gently took the phone from his twin

sister.

"Don't cry for that heartless man, Gia. It's better he's not our real father. He could never be a good father to us,

and it's better we found out now rather than later," Maximo said bitterly, though deep down, he too felt the sting

of Alessandro's cold behavior. Maximo had started to see Alessandro as a father figure and had been hopeful

about Alessandro and Mia's wedding. But seeing Alessandro's heartlessness shattered those hopes in an instant.

"But | love Daddy." Gia sobbed, clinging to the hope that things could still be different.

Mia embraced her daughter, comforting her gently.

"Gia, maybe he's under a lot of stress. Let's give him stime, okay?!" she said, trying to calm both Gia and

Maximo, relieved to see their expressions soften slightly.

"Really, Mom?! He will conce his work is finished! Gia asked, hope shining in her eyes.

Maximo also looked at their mother with equal eagerness. Mia smiled warmly at both her children and beckoned

Maximo closer, stretching out her arm. He ran into her embrace, and they settled together on Mia's lap. She

gently caressed their heads, coaxing them towards sleep.

"Yes, your daddy will come. After all, how long can he stay away from you two?" she murmured softly.

But underneath her reassuring words, Mia's heart was filled with doubts and fears. She couldn't shake the

uncertainty about why Alessandro had suddenly changed.

Meanwhile, in Alessandro's office, after hanging up on Gia, he sat in silence with a gloomy expression. Matteo,

who had observed the entire phone conversation, couldn't contain his curiosity any longer.

"What was that?" he asked, unable to hold back his intrigue at Alessandro's unusual behavior.

"Matteo, not now!" Alessandro warned in a dull voice, licking his dry lips.

"I know," Alessandro breathed out tiredly. "And | intend to do it."

"What? Are you insane? How can you do this to such angelic children? They are your flesh and blood, Alessandro,

Matteo shouted in rage at his friend's perceived stupidity.
