In his defence, Tommaso Vitale didn’t know you were the artist. In your defence, he’s an arrogant, insufferably handsome Italian billionaire who apparently mistakes having money for having taste. Unfortunately, discovering your identity doesn’t inspire an apology. It inspires him to buy all twenty-three paintings in your exhibition. Now he’s inventing increasingly ridiculous excuses to see you again, his sister is having the time of her life, and his very powerful family is expecting him to marry someone else. Oh, and did we mention he’s the heir to an Italian criminal empire? Congratulations. You’ve apparently become a billionaire’s most expensive mistake. And judging by his behaviour? He’s planning to make several more.
