Matteo's driver dropped Emily off safely at her apartment. Though it was practically Mia's house, it was the only
place Emily had to call her own.
She unlocked the door and set her bag on the table near the sofa. Then she went to her room, plugged her
phone in to charge, and selected her sleepwear from the cupboard. After taking a hot shower, she changed into
her pajamas and prepared to retire to bed, eager to sink into the comfort of her soft mattress.
But as she stepped out of the bathroom, she heard her phone ringing. She walked over, unplugged it fron the
charger, and saw a warm smile brighten her mood when she realized it was Mia calling.
But then she realized it was late at night. What could have made her best friend call her at this hour? Feeling a
surge of anxiety, she quickly answered the phone.
"Mia, is everything okay?" she asked, her voice laced with worry.
"I should be the one asking you this, Mia replied, her voice heavy with concern. "How are you, Emily? Alessandro
toldhe got a call from Matteo, and he said Tomas tried to hurt you!" The anger toward Tomas and the worry
for her friend made Mia's voice tremble. "I'm coming right now. I've told Alessandro to get the jet ready." Mia
declared, her urgency clear.
Placing the phone against her ear, Emily sat on the bed and leaned back, stretching her leg out comfortably on
the mattress. A soft smile tugged at her lips as she heard Mia worrying about her so much. It made her feel that
she wasn't alone in this world-Mia was always there for her, no matter what. After her parents died and she lost
her wealth, her relatives discarded her without a second thought. But then Mia cinto her life, and along with
Gia and Maximo, they becthe only family Emily had.
"Relax, Mia," Emily said softly, sensing her distress. She knew Mia was pregnant and didn't want her to be
stressed. "I'm fine. Mr. Vinci was there, so nothing actually happened."

she quickly shook off the thoughts as she reminded herself that Matteo was a notorious playboy, untrustworthy
when it cto hot and beautiful women-a shameless flirt with little self-control.
"I won't spare that monster. He has to face the consequences, Mia muttered, breathing heavily in anger.
"Mia! Mia! Calm down and take a deep breath, Emily soothed, trying to calm her best friend down. "He can't do
anything to me, and don't worry, I'll make sure he faces the consequences."
"Yes, he should know better than to cany closer to you," Mia uttered firmly. Emily could almost picture Mia's
expression-frowning and nose flaring, red with anger. Mia was always protective of Emily. just as Emily was
protective of Mia. Although they didn't share a blood relationship, they had found a sisterhood in each other,
bonded through their mutual pain and sufferitig caused by the men in their lives.
"Do you wantto involve Alessandro and have your ex-husband removed from the earth?" Mia suggested
darkly, causing Emily's eyes to widen in shock. It was striking how quickly Mia's twith her husband had
influenced her perspective. Emily snorted at the thought.
"No, Mia. But thank you for thinking about me. A small punishment will never be enough. | want him to suffer
with humiliation and experience the pain of losing everything, and for that, | will seek the help of the law" Frilu

"That's really great because Matteo is the best lawyer, and no one
n defeat him in the courtroom. I'll talk to him personally and make sure he goes to any length to get justice for
you," Mia guaranteed firmly.
Suddenly, the doorbell of her flat rang, causing Emily to lift her head toward the door.
"Mia, someone is at the door. I'll talk to you later." Emily said, about to hang up.
But Mia urged, "Wait! Who would be there at this tof night?"
Emily shook her head at her best friend's concern. She worried too much.
"Mia, Mr. Vinci said he would get my car dropped off here since | left it at the hotel. It must be his driver
delivering the keys," Emily informed.
"Oh. | see," Mia murmured. "Take care of yourself and letknow if you need anything. I'll be there in a
heartbeat." Mia's vow made Emily laugh with relief.
"Okay, my brave lady!" she saluted, even though Mia couldn't see her..
