Chapter 344: Proof
Leonardo controlled his anger. Just because he likes that sweet little munchkin, he had to go through all this. But he will do anything for Ziya. Thinking of Ziya, his anger subsided and he came to the point.
"What’s with you and four fingers?" Leonardo asked.
Martha’s heart skipped a beat. "Four fingers?"
"I mean... what’s his name...That security guy with only four fingers. He is a smart, loyal guy I had to... Ah, Nelson! Are you dating him?" Leonardo asked.
Martha gulped. Nelson is a nice guy. He’s working for the Vitale family for all his life. He has told her how Leonardo gave a hefty price to save him from an enemy gang as they hacked him with a butcher’s knife. That’s how he lost a finger from each hand and gained the name "four fingers".
After rescuing him, Leonardo himself made sure that the men who kidnapped him were skinned alive. He is a living testament of how much the Vitale family cares for their loyal servants.
And yes, she has some feelings for him. She found his devotion to the Vitale family sexy. She hasn’t worked out what kind of feelings those were yet.
She cannot decide on her own. She has devoted her life for Signora. She had a feeling that Signora wouldn’t stay here for long. Her heart lies at Abenney. She will return there. Now that she is sure that Capo is still alive, Signora might leave for Abenney any time soon.
She cannot go on falling in love with a guy who has devoted his life to the Vitale family. If they fall in love, it’s not going to be a win-win situation for them. One of them will lose if they want to stay together.
It’s better if she doesn’t let those feelings develop further. She should stop those feelings just as a crush.
She cannot leave Signora and he cannot leave the Vitale family.
That aside...
