“Don’t shoot the dealer,” Renzo chuckles as he places a card in front of Angelo.
“I need two,” Franco says.
“I’m good.” Dario grins.
“Fucker,” Franco mutters, and not even looking at the two new cards, he bows out of the game.
“Let me see your hand,” Renzo demands.
“You first,” Dario taunts him.
They all put their hands down, and Dario smirks at his royal flush. “Pay up.”
“I swear, if I ever catch you cheating, you’re dead,” Franco grumbles as he pushes his stack of cash toward Dario.
“If you’re good, you’re good,” Dario brags.
“How’s business?” I ask.
“Good,” Angelo answers. “I’m going to open another club.”
“I just completed a big arms deal,” Renzo mentions.
“Where and with who?” I ask.
“Filippo Vero. He’s based in Italy.”
When I don’t recognize the name, I ask, “What does he do?”
“Just buys and sells arms,” Renzo answers.
I glance at Franco. “And you?”
“Business is good as usual.”
“How are the triplets?” Dario asks Franco.
The conversation turns to the kids, and letting out a sigh, I take a sip of my whiskey.
I wonder how long it will take for Gabriella to get pregnant.
Picturing her pregnant with my child has the corner of my mouth curve up.
“He’s smiling,” Dario gasps.
I quickly school my face and glare at the fucker.
“You have to tell us what you were thinking about,” Renzo says, a broad grin on his face.
“Nothing that concerns you,” I mutter. “Deal the next hand.”

I’m busy doing Aunt Aida’s makeup for the wedding when Aunt Greta rushes into the room, looking frazzled.
“You need to take a break,” I tell her while I swipe some mascara onto Aunt Aida’s lashes.
