Briana's POV:
Living in Italy means living in Eowyn's and Aiden's mansion since their children had their own houses.
So, it's not a surprise to see Eowyn in the dining table the next morning.
She give me a warm smile before I join her, this is new for me, living in this luxury because I remember my family isn't lucky enough with money.
How do I meet them and get lucky? I always wonder.
"How's dinner, Eowyn?" I asked Eowyn while we're eating breakfast, last night she and Aiden had a dinner meeting with friends.
I always have breakfast with Eowyn, we all know how Aiden like to wake up late if he has nothing to do nor any urgent matter.
"It's always shocking me seeing the Genesees member and how big we've become" She smile before sipping her tea.
Oh yeah, the Genesees...
Sometimes I also wonder how they're a Mafia but didn't acts like one I saw in TV.
"You now, I never thought I'm going to lived with Mafia family" I told her truthfully and Eowyn look amuse before nod her head in understanding gesture.
"We're not that bad, right?" She winked while I nod my head for agreement.
"No" I return her smile "You all great and I would like to say thank you for taking me as one of your family member" Eowyn grab my hand softly and held it.
She is really an angel.
Not that I have forgotten my real family, but after horrible things that happen to me, I am grateful God giving me the new family like them.
"Morning"
Charlotte comes with Rhys beside her and made Eowyn raise her eyebrows.
"I didn't know you two slept here" She comments when both of them take a seat beside me, she quickly turn her gaze to her son in law "It's good to see you, Rhys" She said softly to him.
"Hi, Eowyn. Briana" He greet us with a warm smile before added "It's Charlotte request"
"Mom, I can't stay when something happened" Charlotte beamed happilly which made her mother raise her eyebrow.
Oh God, I hope it's not about me spending the night with Vincent. When I turn my head to see Charlotte grin and wink her eyes to me before open her mouth, I guess it is about last night, great.
"You know.. Briana spend the whole night out with Vincent" She shout whisper when Vincent name been mentioned in triumph.
"What?" Taken-aback with the news, Eowyn staring at me before smiling with a proud looks.
Oh God, Charlotte and Eowyn are on the same boat for thinking me end with Vincent is a great idea.
"So, what happen, Briana?" They stare and wait for my explanation, but I don't want to tell them anything, not when Rhys here, it's embarrassing.
So I just eat my pancakes and smile to them without speak anything.
"Briana..." Charlotte start whining at the same time Vincent walks into the dining room and shut her immediately.
"Morning all" His voice sound deeper which made me shivers.
I didn't know he's here too?
"What is this?" We all turn our gaze when Aiden's voice come from the door staring at his family.
"Morning, Honey" Eowyn quickly stood up and greet him with a Peck on his lips.
"Am I forgetting something?" We all look confused to hear Aiden's question.
"Why?" Charlotte asked her father before put her forks into her mouth.
Aiden pointed his finger to his son and daughter "Everyone's here, so am I forgetting something?"
Silence...
I takes us a minute before we all know what he mean.
His children only sleep in their parents mansion when something happened or if there's a party being held since they have their own house and life, that's why seeing all in here confuse him.
We all burst laughing after a minute and made the great Aiden frowned, still confused.
"Whoa..." We all turn our gaze when Benjamin come "Is there a party or something that I didn't know? Since you all here" We all laugh again to hear him have the same respond like Aiden and this time, the man himself laughed with us and leave Benjamin frowned in confusion.
Oh God, I love this family.
******************
I just get up from the taxi to go to the baby store when I heard horn.
Beep.. Beep...!!
"Briana!"
Shocked when hear my name being called, I stop my pace when seeing Gerrard park his car and walk out to my direction.
"Hey, Gerrard. Good to see you" I greet him and saw he wear a v neck black shirt which shown his build muscle and a jeans.
He's a handsome man.
But why my body didn't respond to him like I do to Vincent?!
"Where are you going in a rush like that?" He asked and start walking with me.
"Charlotte finally want to tell us the gender of her baby, but me and Rhys make a bet about it" I explain and chuckle when remember the conversation with Rhys before.
"Okay.." Gerard look amuse and chuckle.
"Yup and I am sure that it's a He while his father thought of having a princess" I told him who nod in understand.
"Yeah, He already talks about killing every man who dare touching his daughter" He laugh and shook his head when telling me the story.
"And already decorated with a pink room" I raise my hand disbelief while his friend just laughed louder.
"That bad?"
I nod "So, I decided to bought everything with a neutral color If I was right and they have a son instead of daughter" I explain and he give me a warm smile.
"Let's go then, I'll help" He suggest and make me staring to see the seriousness in his word. "What?" He raise his eyebrow when he saw me staring.
I quickly shook my head "Nothing, it just very thoughtful of you" I told him.
"Don't thank me yet, perhaps I'll asked a date for returned the favor" He wink and made me smile in return.
Gerrard is a nice man, I know I can trust him.
He is one of Rhys's friends which he trust, so I know I can trust him too.
--------------------------------------------------------
Charlotte's POV:
"You're ridiculous, Vincent!"
Frowned I am shock when I hear Briana and Vincent walks inside my parents mansion, fighting.
"You don't know him well, Briana" I hear my brother sighed "He's not good for you and you must hear me!" I raise my eyebrow when hear his demand.
What is going on?
"It's not like I'm going to have s*x with him" Briana hisses and Vincent look shock by her outburst.
"You already having a thought for s*x?!" He sound disbelieve with what he hear "It's a final then, no man can get closed to you, young girl!!"
"What?!!"
Oh, Vincent acts too much.
"Vincent.." I tried to stop them but Briana already shouts in angrily.
"Do you think I can having s*x with man when knowing for only touching them freaked me out?" She scolds and I notice that Vincent didn't said anything so she continue "Or you forgot that I am a broken girl, I know that no man can have me with all bad past that happened to me" She finished with a tears fall from her eyes and turn around to run to her room.
"Briana, I didn't mean it like that" Vincent shouts but she already left "DAMN IT!!!"
He punches the door and make it cracked.
Mom's going to mad, I thought when she see it.
Slowly I take a seat beside where he sat and touch his hand
"Hey" I speak and watch my brother raise his head to meet my gaze "What happen?"
He sighed before stood up and pour a glass of whiskey.
"You need to speak with Rhys and tell him to make his friend, Gerrard, stay away from Briana" Realization hit me after he said it.
They fought because he saw Briana with a man?
"But, Gerrard is a good man, I know him" Vincent look mad after I defend the British man.
"So you agree Briana going out with that man?" He ask and shocked with what I say before shook his head "What's wrong with you, woman?!" He murmur before stood up and leaving me.
Stoned by his behavior lately, I am smile a little for thinking that he's acts strange since Briana came.
Me and mother could see it, why can't he?
He acted like a jealous man when he knows another man give her the attention and try to get to know her.
I saw this strange thing in my wedding ceremony when he can't stop staring at Briana.
I just hope he realize it sooner before she decided to found another man.
I know Briana like him.
But seeing he act like a crazy man who didn't know his own feeling wasn't good for them.
If only I'm not having this big tummy...
God, help them.
