Dig Information

"My oh my detka (baby), you have some nerve to do that towards your husband on top of that the Mafia Don," said Mikhail as he smiles at Stella.

"Well he lies and I hate liar as you yourself know," said Stella as she gets comfortable.

"You are not married to him isn't it?" asked Mikhail as he raises his eyebrows.

"No, not yet. It's just an agreement between two families" reply Stella as she takes a glance over to Mikhail who smirks at that information.

"Any way where are we going?" asked Stella as she looks outside of the window.

*RING RING* *RING RING*

"Husband calling?" asked Mikhail smirking.

"Yup" reply Stella as she picks up the call.

"Amore mio (My love) where are you?" asked Luciano on the other end of the call.

"None of your concern liar. Why are you calling?" asked Stella back trying to prolong the call so that he can trace her.

"I'm worried about you, Mikhail isn't what he looks like," said Luciano.

"I know, now tell me something that I don't know" reply Stella trying to shift the situation and make him realise her plan.

"He's from the Soviet Russian Assassin," said Luciano as he revealing the truth.

"I know, I already know about that" reply Stella as she pretends to make an annoyed facial expression.

"Then you should know that he is dangerous, really dangerous why on earth do you still follow him?" asked Luciano slightly frustrated.

"I have my reasons and if want doesn't have any more reasons to annoyed me kindly go home to your brother," said Stella as she hangs up the call as sigh loudly.

"My detka (baby), why not let's just ignore your so-called husband for now and let us enjoy this moment before your so-called husband finds us," said Mikhail as he speeds up his car.

"That's a good plan," said Stella as she giggles while tossing her phone by the side of the car before she uses her watch.

Meanwhile back at Luciano who was slightly annoyed but catching up on Stella's action he quickly on her tracking that he secretly install in Stella's phone.

"Hello frati (brother)"

"Hello Lucian, can you give the phone to Skylar?" asked Luciano as he calls his brother while heading over to the parking lot.

"Hello, Luciano?" asked Skylar as she answers the phone.

"What's going on between Stella and Mikhail?" asked Luciano directly while he reaches the parking level.

"I'll explain more but you need to head over to Jacob's house now," said Skylar.

"Okay" reply Luciano before he hangs up and zoom out from Stella's office.

Back to Stella and Mikhail, both of them decided to fill their tummy while reminiscent of their good old time when they both are in high school.

"This ice cream parlour, I still amazed that the uncle is still here," said Mikhail as they both eat ice cream while enjoying the view relaxing.

"I know right, it's been ages since the last time I come here and I miss this place," said Stella trying to gain Mikhail trust to open up.

"Mik, I'm curious. How is Tim?" asked Stella as she licks the melted ice cream while looking at Mikhail intentionally.

"He-he's okay just that last few days he manages to outrun my dad's security team and head over here in which I think that he's going to get even either to you or your husband," said Mikhail.

"Even for what? We parted ways in a good term Mik" said Stella as she looks at him in concern and sadness.

"Don't worry okay Stell, I'm here and I will protect you from him," said Mikhail as he runs his hand through Stella's loose hair before tugging it behind her ear.

"Still I don't get it why?" asked Stella.

"That cause detka (baby), he thought that you will forget him and go with Luciano who is his number 1 enemy and let's forget about this while we enjoy our time together okay detka (baby)?" said Mikhail not wanting to reveal anything more.

"Hmm okay then, I'm really grateful that you are here and still remember me," said Stella as she smiles sweetly towards Mikhail who smiles at her.

"Of course I'll remember you detka (baby), I will never forget you" murmur Mikhail lowly while still look at Stella who was busy finishing her ice cream.

'You psychotic boy' said Stella to herself as she catches what Mikhail was murmuring.

"Anyway when did you get here?" asked Stella out of the blue.

"A week ago together with my sister," said Mikhail without thinking as he himself startle before he quickly changes his answer.

"We made a stop at the airport as she needed to go to Germany for her study" add Mikhail quickly trying to mend the situation.

"That's great to hear, at least she move on and head to a better future which is gain knowledge for her future. I kinda jealous of her in that situation where she can get over things and move forward" said Stella.

"Pfft, she gets over and moves forward is something that requires a miracle. Ahem, I mean it was hard but now she strives more in which sometimes hard for me to delegate her" said Mikhail as he composes himself while reply to Stella's question.

"Don't worry Mik, she will understand your intention and will help out eventually," said Stella as she wipes her hands with tissue.

"Wanna go somewhere else?" asked Mikhail as he stands up while holding his hand out to help Stella to get up.

"Thank you and let's go," said Stella as she holds onto Mikhail's hand.

"Can we go to the beach? It's been ages since I've gone to the one that we often went together with Tim" said Stella as they both use their seat belt.

"Sure" reply Mikhail as he forcefully smiles while gritted his teeth.

"I've been asking about other people but I forget to ask about you. How are you Mikhail?" asked Stella trying to keep the conversation going.

"I'm doing fine, just missing New York and our hangout moments," said Mikhail as he happily responds.

"Aww, you intentionally make me feel sad. I miss our time together where we would do the unexpected trips and just being teenagers without any worry" said Stella as she pout.

"My detka (baby), is so cute," said Mikhail as he ruffles Stella's hair.

"Hey, my beautiful hair is messy" reply Stella still pout.

"But seriously though how are you? How's your life? What are you doing now? Your parents?" asked Stella as she looks at Mikhail with puppy eyes which earns her a smile from Mikhail before he shakes his head slightly.

"I'm fine, my life is the same. I'm currently working together with Timofey dealing with stuff and my parents unfortunately still alive and breathing while control their children's life" said Mikhail as he smiles a forced smile.

"I'm so sorry to hear that, I didn't know that your parents still the same," said Stella in an empathetic tone as she holds Mikhail's hand trying to get on his side.

"Don't be detka (baby), I know how to get away from them without detected as I am stronger now not like my younger self, very pathetic and coward younger self," said Mikhail as he takes a quick stare at Stella while smiling before he continues to focus on the road as they arrived at the beach area.

"What the hell?! Why is there a lot of people here?" asked Stella as she looks at the packed beach with people.

"Do you still want to go or head to another place?" asked Mikhail chuckle as Stella was pouting while fold her arms together acting angry.

"No, I want to get some early dinner. I'm angry and hungry" said Stella as she still pouts while huffing.

"Over the years you've become cuter. It is as if you're milder down is it because of that man?" asked Mikhail curiously.

"I'm still me and no not because of that liar," said Stella as she looks outside angrily.

"If you say so milady, let's head over to our favourite restaurant," said Mikhail smiling sweetly at Stella before he zooms out from that area.

The ride took an hour from the beach area to the restaurant where they agree to dine. As they head over to the restaurant Stella continue her agenda in questioning Mikhail in an imperturbable composed way not wanting to give out any information in case Mikhail caught her.

For the whole time, Stella manages to dig out pieces of information that she wanted as Mikhail tell her without knowing that he did. She makes use of her affection and skills to broke Mikhail's mistrust and caution that he had around her before they end their so-called blind date as he sent her back to her office.

"Seriously here? Don't you want me to send you in front of your house?"

"It's okay besides I live here and they won't open the gate unless it's a registered number of the community who lives here so thank you and bye Mikhail thank you for helping today," said Stella as she gathers her stuff before she opens the door.

"You can call me any time Stella and I will come to you right away," said Mikhail as Stella exit the car and smile sweetly at him while closing the door and wave goodbye.

Stella then enters the gated community by using the side small gate at the guard room area she then enters her thumbprint while on the phone with Skylar.
