This was perhaps the first situation in which Alexis didn't know what to say. Meeting her potential father-in-law was scary especially if she did not want to get married to his son in the first place. She fidgeted with her hands, wanting to get rid of their gazes off of her.

"I've confirmed the rumours, father," Angelo commented on making Gabriele chuckle at the humourless situation.
"Ahh I see," he leaned in and clicked his fingers in front of Alexis's face making her flinch and come back to reality, "do you wish to know more child?" He asked waiting for the answer that she was going to give him.
"I don't, I am fine with what I know." She softly said, loud enough to make them hear it.
