"Wow, look at this!" Maximo exclaimed, his small frame rushing toward a racing game simulator.
"Dad, can we play this one first?" Gia asked, her eyes sparkling with excitement as she tugged at Alessandro's sleeve.
"Of course, sweetheart," Alessandro said warmly, ruffling her hair affectionately.
Mia was surprised to find the entire gaming center empty.
"I can't believe you booked the whole place," she whispered as frustration laced her tone.
Alessandro shrugged casually.
"Why?" Mia's eyes widened as she questioned him.
"Because Lean." Alessandro replied indifferently, continuing on with Gia. Mia shook her head at his apparent disregard for spending money recklessly.
Alessandro's assistant, Lucas, had thoughtfully arranged for refreshments nearby, ensuring there were snacks and drinks readily available. The attentive staff made sure everyone was comfortable, attending to their needs with a smile.
Maximo and Gia eagerly took turns at various games, their laughter filling the air as they competed and cheered each other on. Alessandro joined them occasionally, his competitive spirit ignited as he played alongside the children, his laughter blending with theirs. He couldn't remember the last time he had. enjoyed so much. In fact, he struggled to recall any joyful moments from his past. His childhood had been tough, marred by his father's cruelty and his mother's betrayal, experiences that had forced him to mature prematurely and had eventually turned him into a heartless monster.
But now, in the midst of this simple joy with the children, he felt a glimmer of something he hadn't experienced in years. It was as if he could feel alive again, as if the weight of his past was momentarily lifted, allowing him to embrace happiness once more.

"You did it, Dad!" Maximo shouted, his voice filled with pride and joy as he hugged the toy tightly. Alessandro was dumbfounded for a moment; he couldn't process what had just happened.

bright smile broke across his face as he kneeled before Maximo and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"Are you happy, champ?" His eyes gleamed with joy and love as he watched Maximo smile back at him.
"I am very happy. You are the best dad!" Maximo said enthusiastically.
Mia watched both her son and the man who mirrored him intently. Her heart fluttered with emotions, her eyes brimming with tears. Maximo didn't easily accept anyone, so seeing his son grow comfortable with, Alessandro overwhelmed Mia with mixed feelings.
She still couldn't believe this ruthless mafia king was capable of winning hearts. Perhaps it was the undeniable bond between father and son that softened Alessandro's demeanor. Gia, already smitten by her father, showed how strong the bond between a girl and her dad could be. It was true what they said a girl's first crush was always her dad. However, seeing Alessandro also treat Gia like his princess made Mia question again if this could all be too good to be true.
"Yes, that's true, Maximo. Dad is the best, and he's so nice to spend time with us," Gia exclaimed, expecting Alessandro's full attention. As if granting her wish, Alessandro hugged her tightly. He then surprised both kids by embracing them simultaneously. "Now, if you're both tired after playing, can we head out for dinner?" Alessandro proposed. Mia suddenly realized it was already very late; she had been so engrossed in watching them play that she had lost track of time.
"Yes, we are very hungry!" Maximo and Gia chimed together.
"Let's go
then!" Alessandro smiled. He had already made reservations at a Michelin-starred restaurant. As they entered hostess appeared, recognizing Alessandro immediately.
"Good evening. Mr.Valentino!" she greeted with a seductive smile. Her sensual body language showed how desperately she wanted Alessandro's eyes on her. Alessandro nodded curtly, not even sparing her a glance.
"The usual table?" she asked in her sexy voice, her smile lingering.
"No, the family table," he replied sternly. "I have a reservation." His gaze was cold and authoritative. The frustration radiated from him in response to her blatant flirting.
The hostess swallowed hard, and the manager came running.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Valentino. Of course, your table is ready," he said, smiling and personally leading Alessandro and the children to their table. Alessandro picked Gia up in his arms as he strode confidently toward their seats, exuding an intimidating presence. The hostess watched in surprise. No one knew Alessandro had a secret family and kids. When did this happen?
Mia trailed behind, watching the drama unfold. She couldn't help but think about Alessandro's reputation as a casanova. What if he were alone? He probably would have flirted with the hostess. She thought he was restraining himself only because of the children. But she wasn't going to fall for his lies and fake innocence
this time.
