Wesley’s POV

“Put your feet on the table,” Giovanni instructed Molly, adding to my confusion as he opened the wine bottle.

My heart raced with each of his actions, and I wanted to grab the wine bottle from him and return it to its rightful place.

I had bought it the day Molly signed off on everything, but I didn't think she was deserving of it. Now, it felt like some kind of trophy, but when I heard Giovanni's intentions for it, I felt like I was dying inside.

“I just remembered that I have to clean their smelly mouths from your precious feet,” he remarked, causing my jaw to clench, feeling powerless in front of him.

Molly seemed taken aback by his actions as he knelt before her, treating her like a princess, disregarding his white suit as he gently removed her stilettos.

Giovanni carefully placed her feet on my coffee table, then picked up her jewelry box and duffle bag from the floor, placing them gently on the sofa to avoid the unconscious bodyguards lying on the floor.

    Wesley’s POVThe spy I hired to gather information about Giovanni surprised me with his question.“Are you expecting me to answer this question after my deposit?” I asked him on the phone, he abruptly ended the call.As I looked at the unconscious bodyguards on the floor, I considered asking for his help to dispose off them when I noticed a movement.I rushed to his side and helped him up. “You’re alive?”He stumbled slightly, and I steadied him. “Why didn’t you inform us that it was Don we were up against? I wouldn’t have come,” he expressed, disheartened.I contemplated hiring someone more capable to confront Giovanni or forming alliances with his business rivals.“If you were alive, why were you unconscious for so long?”To my surprise, he began to rouse his companions. “We had to feign death to save our lives, if you catch my drift. Don wouldn’t hesitate to send you to your grave,” he cautioned.His comrades stood up, eyeing me warily. One of them spoke up, “If you won’t pay the r

    Giovanni’s POVI couldn’t reveal all sides of my business to Molly as that were too dangerous.Having her at the corporation would be the best for her at the moment and I was glad she wasn’t prone too probing too much.While chatting with her, I noticed a car following us. Initially, I didn’t pay much attention to it, but when I tried to pull over as I did, my suspicions were confirmed.As I got out of the car, his mistake was attempting to run instead of pretending his car had a fault, which would have been a better excuse.It didn’t take long for me to catch up to him as he tried to flee, waiting for approaching cars before crossing the street.It wouldn’t have been right to kill him there, so I made a mental note to always have at least one bodyguard with me in the future. This situation should have been easily handled by them.Once I grabbed him by the hair, his struggles were futile as I knew he wouldn’t be able to escape.Pushing him back into his car, I interrogated him, “Why w

    Molly’s POVI was still reeling from witnessing Gianni's actions earlier. Initially, I was afraid he might end up in jail, but the way the cops looked at him made me wonder why people were so afraid of him.Then there was Wesley, using my money to hire spies. I felt like the few months Gianni stated to get back my assets was too long.As he picked up the intercom, his expression changed, and I wondered what his secretary had told him.“Tell her to wait there,” he instructed, indicating it was a woman. There was always a mysterious air about him when it came to women, including his wife, that he never shared with me.Dropping the intercom, he locked eyes with me. “My bodyguard, Jace, will accompany you to Roger’s school and stay with you until I return.”I felt a sense of relief at the prospect of some time alone but couldn’t shake my curiosity about the woman waiting for him.“Okay, so when can I expect you back?” I asked, unintentionally giving the impression that there was something

Knocking on Roger’s door, I received no response, so I cautiously opened it, only to be met with a wave of fear that gripped my heart.“It’s not a joke, Roger,” I pleaded, feeling vulnerable and at his mercy as I quickly shut the door.“Come in,” his voice called from inside, but as I entered, something suddenly covered my face, causing me to scream in terror. Thankfully, Jace swiftly came to my rescue, removing the spider that had startled me.My heart raced uncontrollably. “Thank you, Jace.”“It’s no problem, ma’am. I’m here to help.”I glanced around at Roger’s chaotic collection of pets, feeling queasy. I hurried to the bathroom, emptying the contents of my stomach. I hadn’t eaten since breakfast, and the boy had frightened me to the core.This wasn’t the first time, but without Gianni, the house felt menacing, bringing back memories of what Roger had done to me on my first night.“Ma'am, would you like

    Giovanni’s POV“I don’t have all day, Eleonor.” I was running out of patience when I saw her wasting time at the door.As she entered the office, I quickly warned her. “Don’t ever dress like this to my office again.”She knew perfectly well that her services weren’t needed in my office and should have dressed more appropriately but rather, she looked confused and asked me, “But Don, you never complained before.”I decided to clarify, “Point of correction, don’t come to my office unless summoned.”It was better that way because I didn’t invite her. I knew she might be wondering why I suddenly began giving her rules, but the reason was that Molly was starting work, and I didn’t want her to get any ideas.Until she recovered everything Wesley stole from her, she needed peace of mind to focus on her work.“Okay, I’m sorry, but you haven’t been answering my calls, so I came to check. I have some new girls, and as usual, we wear masks, so you won’t know them, and they won’t know you. Your s

All his partners have worked with him through his bodyguards.“I want a strategy to take him down. Wesley isn’t a problem.”“But if he’s partnering, then he’s going to use Molly’s money to pay for some things, right?” Hank asked. I wasn’t ready for this.There was already a lot of things going on with my clubs and loaning organizations, but then an idea came to mind.“What about I take back Molly’s money from him bit by bit?”Hank smiled, but there wa

Roger may be different, but the maids are my employees and should not be causing trouble."They believe she can't handle her job and is using Roger to get your attention.""Did they mistreat her in any way?"Jace hesitated for a moment before hurriedly responding, "I have to go. I think Roger is causing trouble again."I didn't stop him, knowing he needed to be there for Molly, and turned to Hank. "Please drive. I want to check the surveillance cameras at home."Despite his love for expensive cars, it was a mistake to ask Hank, as he was already behind the wheel."Who is causing problems?" he inquired as he accelerated. I watched the surveillance cameras closely as I updated him."Roger has taken a dislike to Molly.""That's understandable, but he will outgrow it soon. None of us can force him to like her."His response was not encouraging,

As for Hank's stance, it remained uncertain."What do you want, Mom?" Gianni asked sarcastically. Beatrix smiled and replied, "Just so you know, I'm not your mother.""Of course. Your son is right beside you," Gianni retorted, Beatrix's gaze fixed on Octavia. "Did you tell him everything?""So what?" Octavia replied in annoyance, her face and eyes flushed red."What did they do to you?" I inquired, and Gianni ordered, "Remove the tape from her mouth. We are all tied up anyway. Or are you afraid I can still harm you even with my arms and legs bound?"His words seemed to provoke Beatrix, as she commanded, "Remove the duct tape from her mouth." One of the bodyguards complied, but Octavia appeared too exhausted to speak."We finally have the scoundrel here," an elderly man spoke from the dining table, and the others nodded in agreement.

We were already dressed, as Gianni was prepared for action, with his trusted bodyguards Zak and Jace by his side.Most of the Dawson's bodyguards had mysteriously resigned, leaving only those directly employed by Gianni."Are you afraid?"

Instantly, he looked away, but I needed his help, so I asked him,"Can you help me apprehend the suspect?"His expression was strange, and his response was peculiar. "I'm sorry. Something urgent just came up. I'll have to send someone to assist in training Octavia.""What? We had an agreement," I said firmly. If I wanted someone else, I wouldn't have asked for his help. Why did I feel like he was acting strangely?"I'm sorry, Gio, but you know how my work is. I just landed a contract that will keep me occupied for weeks."Hank had previously let go of a significant contract because he believed the person was innocent, which was why I trusted him.

Molly was the only woman I couldn’t keep secret even if I tried because of how much I love her. Keeping our relationship secret was suffocating.“Octavia, get to the point already. Don’t you have enough bodyguards, and I hope you were joking about Gael?” I really hoped she wasn’t, but her reply stunned me.“No, Vanni. Gael is alive. I spoke to him on FaceTime. He’s Beatrix’s only son.”Was it what I was thinking? After finding out she wasn’t my real mother, I couldn’t help thinking
