“No matter what, you’ll always have me.”

She whispered while stroking my hair like she always did when I was a child.

“Grazie mamma.”

*******

Lost in my thoughts, I sat alone in my study with the weight of the day's events pressing heavily upon me.

My mind swirled with a flood of emotions and deliberations demanding my attention.

On the one hand, I was stuck on what to do with Angela.

Kramaric and Vito were right in the sense that I had to tell Angela the truth.

On the other hand, my mind was occupied with the situation concerning Mr.Stefan.

I delved deeper into my thoughts and pondered the setbacks we encountered, the unexpected twist in Mr. Stefan's decision, and the unknown forces behind the scenes.

The realization dawned upon me that the road ahead would not be smooth, that the path to success would be paved with treachery and deceit.

The stakes were high, and the consequences of any wrong step taken would be dire.

Every decision I made would carry weight, and every move had the potential to either elevate or undo everything I had worked so tirelessly to achieve.

With a deep breath, I steeled myself, resolute in my determination to navigate this treacherous path.

I knew the road would be difficult and fraught with challenges and hidden dangers.

But I was not one to shrink from adversity.

I had come too far, sacrificed too much, to back down now.

I decided to make a silent vow to myself.

I would face whatever lay ahead with unwavering resolve.

The game had started, and I was prepared to play it.

My thoughts were interrupted by the abrupt entrance of Angela into my study.

The seriousness etched on her face immediately sent a wave of concern coursing through me.

Without a word, she closed the door behind her and locked her gaze with mine.

“What’s wrong?”

I stood up and rushed over to her, secretly scanning her body for any injuries, but she kept quiet.

“Angela?”

“What is the secret behind your family?”

She demanded. My blood turned to ice.

“Why do you have so many security guards? Where did those scars on your body come from? What are you hiding from me?”

Her demand hung in the air, heavy and demanding.
