Virgen Maria: smirking Oh, so you found out. Bravo. Thought you'd be sipping wine, not spilling secrets.
she shrugs and looks away. I'm sorry, but if you wanted me to keep this quiet then maybe next time don't let your men take me hostage.
He chuckles, a sardonic smile playing on his lips. Ah, you're right. My apologies for the rough treatment. But let's not forget, you weren't exactly invited here for a friendly chat.
leaning back, smirking Secrets have a way of surfacing, don't they? Especially in this family.
He lets out a deep chuckle, swirling his wine glass
True. It's like playing chess with a cheat sheet. You never know when someone will make their move.
His eyes narrow slightly
But I must say, I'm impressed by your… discovery.
I know everything now, Virginio. Let's cut the act. You brought me here for a reason. So let's talk business.
leans back in his chair, swirling the wine in his glass thoughtfully
Ahh... straight to business. Always eager.
But first, let's address the elephant in the room. Yes, I am Virgen Maria - mafia boss by day, businessman by night. And yes, I brought you here to discuss something important.
Drink some wine while we chat?
I put my hand on his chest I know everything about you. I smile
he looks at your hand on his chest, then back up to you with an amused yet guarded expression
Oh, really? Everything about me, hmm?
He leans in closer to you, his voice dropping to a low murmur.
And what do you think you know exactly?
he’d stay silent, hiding it from her that he knew about hers as well
he raises an eyebrow, noticing your silence
Oh, you're not going to say anything? No gasps of shock or accusations?
he takes a step closer, his eyes locked onto yours
You're either very good at hiding your surprise or you already knew.
I look up at him it doesn’t change anything between us..does it?
His expression softens slightly as he gazes down at you.
Of course not. Our deal still stands.
But it changes everything about how you look at me now... Doesn't it?
I look over at him I have something for you…
eyes narrowing Oh, do you now? And what might that be?
she laughs a little "I always knew"
He raises an eyebrow, intrigued by her nonchalant response
Oh? Is that so. And how long have you known about my little secret, hmmm?
she looks over to him and smiles slightly well I'm glad you did... because I have something else to tell you
He arches an eyebrow skeptically Do you now? And what might that be, hmmm?
sips her glass of red wine. You know I'm always one step ahead, darling.
chuckles darkly Always so confident, aren't you? But don't get too cocky now. A few tricks up my sleeve as well.
takes a sip of his own wine
You're quite observant, I'll give you that. But now the question is... what are you going to do with this information?
Sip my glass of red wine it’s just business..and this deal was too good to pass up.
His eyes narrow as he studies you intently. He raises an eyebrow and takes a sip from his own glass.
Business, eh? And what exactly makes this deal so enticing that it justifies revealing my secret to someone like you?
