Emily
"What are you doing here?" I ask Enzo who's standing inside the doorway of Bella's apartment; and also my new home. It's been 3 days, 3 days since the accident and 3 days of avoidant. I really thought he would come back or at least call or text for the divorcement but that was thinking too fast; now to prove to me he really is over with our marriage, he send Enzo of all people to me, nice!
"Maybe we can discuss this inside, don't want the neighbors to know about an ex-mafia-wife, right?" he grins and I want to punch that off his face but he's right; Mrs. Flintstone hate my guts. When I first arrived she complained about the noises made when Bella helped me with my suitcase, then she gave me the stink eyes just because I bought pizza on my way and lastly she's complaining about the rent; she's our landlord for the record and she wants us, because I will stay here for while, to pay extra rent. How insane is this old lady!?
"Why would I?" Crossing my arms, I block his way. "It' your fault my marriage is fucked up"
"Let's discuss this inside, Miss Magetta" I cringe at me old last name. So were back to Miss Magetta, huh?
"You win..." I whisper and lead him up the stairs.
"YOU!" Bella yells, pointing his finger at him while giving him the dead stare.
"Bella! Nice to see you..." he replies, taking seat on the chair and motion for me to sit on the couch.
"I'll swear, Enzo, if you hurt her, I'll cut your balls off and feed them to the dogs of hell!"
"Bella, can you leave us alone?" I ask her because I know if I don't stop her Enzo will be dead any minute. Bella nods and stomps off inside the bedroom, the door closing with a loud bang.

"Well, now we're alone, we can discuss what will happen in the future" Enzo says and takes out some papers out of the little bag he bought with him. "First I want to talk about what your plans are with ProtectPower" he asks me in his lawyer-voice.
"Eh..." I think for a moment. "I'm planning on being the head of the company, so I would be ruling it as well"
"But you don't have a lot of experience, so how would this work" he's right, I don't have...
"I'm a fast learner, and besides, I know people on that company who would love to help me"
"But what if they don't want to?" he grins.
"What if I throw you out, let Bella indeed cut your balls off and leave you dead behind some trash cans?" I arch a brow and I see the irritation on his face. "But to answer your question, I know they will"
"Alright, now about the divorce" he says. "This was foreplay anyways...Mr. El Ricci is willingly to give you your 50% of the shares" I stare at him in shock; what is happening here? "But of course the deal with your uncle will stay; Mr. El Ricci will get 25% of the shares however..." he takes a deep breath. "He wants to posses the Financial part of ProtectPower"
"For what? To cover up dirty money? I won't let my company go down like that!"
"Look, Mrs. Magetta, you need to be honest that there are a lot of problems with the financial part" he throws a file on the coffee table and when I pick it up I notice it's the Report from the last 6 months...all of the numbers are red..."Emily" Enzo says in his usual voice now. "What Mateo is offering is really generous; usually he would never do this but..." he's looking for the right words. "...But he still cares in his own way and one of them is giving you what you wanted; you should take it"

"I'll think about it" I reply, leaning back on the couch and think. Enzo's right, I should take this; if Mateo can do the part of the finance than I can do the management and social part...it sounds good but I can't be too impulsive; look where that got me...
"Please do, now we're going to talk about the divorce part..." he takes out some papers but doesn't let me see them. "So, you both want a divorce, that can be arranged, are they're things you want from him? The clothes you left behind or do you want some extra money to live a luxurious life?" he asks, a brow raised.
"Yeah, wait here" I stand, run into the bathroom and come back with something. "Here" I say and open my hand to reveal the diamond ring Mateo gave me, or put around my finger at our wedding. "I never wore it so I want miss it" the reason why I never did is because I wasn't me...the diamond is bigger than my finger nail...
"You sure? Why not sell it and keep the money?"
"Do I look like I do that?"
"Good point" he takes it from my hand and pockets it safely. "We discussed everything, are they're things you wanted to add?"
"No..." I think.
"Alright, we'll talk about the divorce paper some further-"
"-When?" I ask, standing up as he does.
"I will send you the time and place, oh, wait!" he stops before he can leave the room. "Tomorrow Mateo will go to ProtectPower, you can come along, he would prefer it"
"I'll think about it" I answer, almost closing the door but he holds me.
"Emily...Please, if you don't give him a second in love, then at least give him one as a friend; he's so fucking tense these days"
"I will come" I and close the door; it's best I go, it's my future company, I should know what will happen...
"Thank you Bella" I say when we park into the garage of ProtectPower.
"No need and you look amazing" she points at my clothes; I'm wearing a classic black suit with high heels I could lent from Bella and I need to say, I look professional and mature, not like the young and childish Emily.
"Thanks" I reply and a black SUV park opposite us and I know Mateo is in there and indeed...he steps out, looking handsome like always but also so tired. Enzo, Sebastian and Olivia step out as well, a tight expression on their faces but when they spot our car they look surprised. "I need to go" Bella nods and unlock the car. Stepping out I feel them watching me and when I look at them, they're surprised to see...or the outfit I'm wearing at least. Guess I impressed them. I walk towards them, my hips swinging just because I feel like it and feel Mateo's eyes roaming over my body, leaving shivers in their awake; even after everything he still can make me feel like this...I stare into Mateo's blue eyes the entire time, a grin forming on my lips and stop just in front of him.
"Long time no see, Mateo"
