When Declan was on his way to this villa and got word that he was going to have dinner with his father, Declan imagined hundreds of scenarios for conversing like a father and son pair.
He expected an awkward moment but heartwarming dining, but not like this.
No one spoke, and Declan refused to open his mouth. Telling him that he had a half-sister was something, but opposing his marriage to the woman he loved, made things worse.
Dario was his birth father, but that didn't mean the older man could go against what he wanted to do.
They hadn't seen each other for over twenty years, but this older man had nothing to say but drop a bomb twice right in front of his face. How could he prepare himself when he expects an amiable meet-up and talking?
"Do you like the meal?"
"So-so." was the short answer for his father's kind question.
