+Chapter 429+

Angelo had a blank expression on his face as he walked with Nikolai to a cozy little restaurant. He was eating more in his involuntary time spent with the Mafia King than Silvia had ever gotten him to.

It was early enough that there were only a handful of people in the restaurant, Nikolai choosing to sit at the tables under the awning outside the restaurant.

Angelo had no choice but to sit stiffly with the Mafia King, the two of them standing out amid the aesthetic white furniture. A basket of freshly picked flowers sat at the center of the wooden table, the fragrance of pale pink petunias and freshly brewed coffee filling the space.

"Are you not going to eat?" Angelo had to ask when a bright-faced waitress came to take their order, she didn't seem shaken by Nikolai's presence.

He had never seen the Mafia King eat and he was starting to worry that maybe he just didn't eat. However, the Alpha's powerful physique begged to differ.
