Riccardo's POV: I looked at Gio who was looking at me with wide eyes. Probably, he didn't expect the Queen to wish him with respect. Yesterday, my plan was to meet him in the morning and discuss with him about that woman but after Noah told me that they were going to meet someone dangerous, I thought of calling Gio with us, because, even if any problem comes I don't need to take my gun out unnecessarily. So, I messaged him to wait until my next order came. And, when Noah told me that we were going to Aventine from San Pietro, I told Gio to come to the historical monument estate street where he is living in between and I also messaged him to act like he is my friend when I became relaxed after the tension Ishita gave me early in the morning. Not in that way, but seeing her running like she saw the creepiest person made my anger rise as well as my tension. For the god's sake, I'm not any creep. But, seeing her panic when she told me that she was not doing any wrong thing while being

Riccardo's POV: I was looking at her deeply until Gio nudged my shoulder making me come out of confusion. I looked over Gio and saw Noah looking at Ishita with a small smile and then he looked at me with the same smile. I went and sat beside Noah not knowing whether I should ask him about my confusion or not. I looked at her once again but she still didn't look at me. I looked at Gio and signaled him to take Ishita out and he understood me well. "Ishita…can you please come with me, I need to ask you something important" He hesitated at first but then I guess he remembered who he was. She looked at Gio for about a minute before turning towards Noah. After being with them, I was able to guess what was happening between them. She had first analyzed Gio on her own and now she is asking for her friend's permission. I was going to tell Noah to let her go but then he looked at me and Gio for a minute and nodded his head at Ishita like he analyzed me and Gio, not only Gio. And she

Ishita's POV: Standing in front of the huge glass door, I tried to peek inside to see him but I realized that this was the one side glass. "How the hell I open this?" I grunted not seeing any kind of locks on the door. "This is automated with face recognition" I heard Patio's voice from behind and I turned to look at him only to see him looking at the round design above the door and suddenly the door got opened. "Highly secured" I whispered knowing that the design was the identification camera and he just gave me a small smile and left the place as I stepped into the room. The door got closed again and my heartbeat started to rise hearing the sound of drums. Wait…what? Drums? I looked around the room to find the source of the sound or the man to whom this room belongs but I saw a huge work area with different kinds of sofas, more than 3 desks including a huge one like the CEO's desk and more than 4 laptops and computers and telephones. Did I get into any office rather

Riccardo's POV: Looking at the tense figures in front of me, all I can wish is that Ishita wouldn't come outside her room and see these men respecting me. I signaled all three dangerous underbosses to sit including Gio and I knew that taking them here was a risk but then I needed to show them Ishita so that they could start protecting her and also needed to show them her real character. What if she decided to seduce them to get things perfectly even after my warning? If I show them her now, they'll know who is she and to whom she belongs and they won't dare to even look at her. "What you got to know about that Indian boss?" I immediately directed my first question towards Khan who looks more tense. "Boss, there is not even a single thing to know about him in the abundance and when we get to too low, there are lot of things about him to know which are awfully disgusting" He scrunched his nose and rubbed his long beard and from this itself I know that he got know something smuttier

Riccardo's POV: I came downstairs after simply getting things done and getting control of my anger. I never knew that her tears would make my anger vanish into thin air. And I know I must have a small smile on my lip by now. I must be stupid to think that she can play with me like she does with others but when I saw her trembling in my site, I knew that she can't…just play with me. And, I'm more than happy knowing that. I sat on the same spot on the couch as before and saw the three men still terrified, standing across ten feet. "Sit" I ordered and they did as I said, however, they thought for a second and also informed Gio about Yalim Mehra he messaged his men and then he informed me that things would be done by tomorrow morning. Yeah, this is the simplest way to handle things being the King but my Queen has been playing this game on her own in the complex way. "What are the other details you have about him?" I asked Khan as he was looking at me with both terrified and
