Molly’s POV

It was hard to read the thoughts of the mischievous little boy at the moment, as he quickly joined me by my side when his father moved to check my leg.

Roger’s body language was ambiguous, shifting between positive and negative signals.

“Where does it hurt, Molly?” Gianni inquired, approaching me and gently securing my right leg.

His touch was so delicate that I almost didn’t realize he was holding my foot. I hesitated to admit that it was my thigh causing the most pain, trying to appear strong.

Despite this, his touch felt familiar and comforting, reminiscent of our past love. When our eyes met, I averted mine.

“It’s okay, I can handle it,” I murmured, lightly massaging the area. However, when I attempted to stand up, the pain intensified.

Gianni must have sensed my discomfort without me saying a word, as he focused on the area where my fingers had trailed and began massaging it.

The pain was intense, but gradually subsided under his skilled touch. “Thank you,” I said as

    Wesley’s POVLast night was brutal, and Santiago was upset after Giovanni left, venting it all on me. “This is all your fault.”“But you came to a conclusion,” I reminded him, casting a final look at the empty restaurant from the screen I was watching from, but he stared at me as if I spoke trash.“A conclusion? Do you know what he would do? Nobody crosses him.” Don Gio seemed like a vengeful person, but so were all the other Dons out there, so why did he make me feel as if this was all my fault?From the looks of it, they already had the arrangement made before I made the request.“It was clear that he was looking for your boss,” I pointed out, watching his expression change to one of fury.“The only reason Don Black gave him an audience was because of Molly. You better find another way for us to have her so we can cancel that fucken meeting.”There was fear in his eyes, which was understandable. Having seen the worst side of Giovanni, I was still surprised that Santiago was afraid.

    “You mean nothing to us, Mr. Thompson. The only reason we agreed to work with you is because of Molly,” Santiago replied. I was hurt, but then, Molly knew nobody, so why did her ex suddenly have to show up, and now Don Black wanted her too?“What makes Molly so special? Let me guess, you want to eliminate her or subject her to a worse fate, right?”Santiago’s expression and that of his bodyguards changed as he walked back to me.“Not even I know why Don Black wants her too, but I don’t think it’s what you think. Be careful with your mouth, or it might get you into serious trouble.”I didn’t know what I said wrong, but he was already gone, which meant I couldn’t ask any more questions.Now, with Molly coming over with Don Gio, it was better not to see them, especially when even Santiago did not want to. Don Gio was too powerful, but somebody needs to bring him down from his high horse.I sent the location to them before dressing up and leaving for the office. Oh, Molly. Just wait until

    Giovanni’s POVI didn’t know where this was coming from, but I doubted Molly was directly involved in this. Don Black wanting to see her might be his way of trying to weaken me, but I have everything planned out.Pouring Hank a cup of black coffee, I shared my observations. “Hank, I think you are confused. There is no way Molly is connected to Don Black. We don’t even know what he looks like,” I explained, but Hank insisted.“Exactly what I mean.” He lifted the cup of coffee to his lips and sipped. “Just the way I like it. No cream, no sugar.”I glared at him after pouring myself a cup, signaling him to get to the point.“We don’t know what he looks like, and Molly has been a housewife for two years. So why would he want to use her against you when you aren’t even her ex-husband?”Hank’s questions were beginning to make sense, and I dropped the cup of coffee on the table.It was strange for us to discuss such matters over coffee. The usual choice was whiskey and vodka, but alcohol had

She stared at me and replied, “I don’t have a home, so I guess I’m yours now.”She had undressed herself when I turned to look at her in the passenger seat. Only her bra and panties were on.After averting my gaze, I decided to check her into a hotel before getting her an apartment, but I didn’t inform her before pulling over at the hotel.“What are you doing?” she seethed. I remained calm, assuring myself that I was doing this for my best friend.“What does it look like I’m doing? Dress up and get out. I already made reservations, so show them your ID card."I pulled out a cigar after saying those words. There were questions I wanted to ask Molly after Roger went to sleep, but Gio arrived before I had the chance, and the moment Molly saw him, it was as if I never existed.Those two were clearly still in lo

Octavia is graduating from college in two months, as you are already aware. I don’t expect you to choose Molly over your wife. Gio, if you defy me, I will make Molly’s life miserable.”She sounded like she cared about Octavia, but I knew she didn’t.

I was excited to learn how extensive the company was.Agatha was a gem and patiently took me through everything I wanted to know, except for some departmental folders that were locked.“Which ones are these?” I inquired, and she explained, “those are Don’s personal businesses that he doesn’t manage through the office.”Something in me wanted to know more about it, but I decided to focus on what was in front of me first.Agatha was so sweet, her patience heartwarming, but suddenly, numerous men barged into my office.

He always appeared professional before but today, I could not say the same.Realizing his blazer was still with me, I gave it to him but his cologne scent was so alluring, still lingering even after he accepted the blazer from me.“Don’t you think information might reach your wife that you cheated when you didn’t?

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?" He asked, looking at me softly in the mirror."With you? No.""Even if Hank has betrayed me?" he inquired, and I hesitated, knowing Hank's strength. I had no idea what Hank did for a living, but I wasn't sure if Gianni could defeat him in a fight.They were both formidable opponents. "Have you ever fought him before?" I asked, and he chuckled. "You think he can take me down?"The question brought back memories of my training. Gianni seemed tougher. "Not a chance."A smile played on his lips, but his eyes remained fixed o

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
