Amanda got into the car and shut the door before taking off her hoodie. "You better have good news" came Leo's gruff voice."I have fair news and a suggestion that would bring good news only if you cooperate " Amanda replied."What do you mean?" He asked."Lorenzo's shipment, you have to return it," she said"You can't be serious. How is that good news? I can't do that" he said" Why? Don't you want him to trust me anymore?" She asked looking at him upset."How do you plan on doing that when he finds out I stole his goods? Think Amanda! Use your head for once " he yelled at her. The scowl on her face was evidence of her disgust." For once at least, I'm thinking and you're not," she said. He raised his bad to hit her but she dodged it."Typical! That's all you're good at" she said breathing heavily."Well, do you want your mother's treatment to continue or not?" He asked."Hmm, there's a plan. Lorenzo doesn't know you stole his goods. He thinks Morettis did. Now I promised to go to th

Bruno stared at the message a second time, how the hell did Valerie Salvatore have access to his antiques and what the hell did she want? His answer wasn't far from him, Valerie Salvatore was an insane woman, beautiful but not to be toyed with. "I had already turned down her offer for marriage a couple of times that was enough to infuriate her." He thought to himself.He picked up his phone and dialled DiCarlo's number."Boss" his voice sounded over the phone"DiCarlo, bring the car around." He ordered"Yes Boss" he replied.Di'Carlo arrived in less than 39 minutes. The drive to the hotel was an hour plus, it gave Bruno enough time to plot out what he was going to do about Valerie Salvatore.Just like the message had said her room number was 023, the receptionist at the front desk confirmed it.Bruno and DiCarlo took the elevator to the third floor where her room was situated. The receptionist had said it was okay to go up, but as they walked through the quiet hall, Bruno wondered if

"Girl, I totally knew you would kick ass with your designs" Amanda's voice sounded over the phone."I know, right? I couldn't even believe it, they accepted all my designs, and not one of them was rejected. You have to attend my project fashion show event, you can't miss this one " Leah squealed excitedly."As if Muchacho, of course, I'll be there. won't miss it for the world" Amanda replied."Alright Bebe, I have to go now, I'm at work. See you when I get home " Leah said and cut the call."Everyone! Let's gather around please " Lily called out to her team members. They encircled her."So, we all know that we have a lot of work to cover in such a short period of time. According to the plan, we have just one month to complete our designs for the show. We will be working twelve lines from the twelve teams. The theme of the show is 'Holiday in the Sun ", we need inspos, creativity, and outstanding designs to cut through this show. Any questions?"

Amanda waited in the car just like her Father had instructed her to. It was already dark out and the guys had gone in to retrieve Lorenzo Romanos's goods. Earlier that morning, they had gone and planted the goods in Moretti's warehouse. It was difficult because Morettis had early morning guards on the ground but with the help of an insider, it wasn't so difficult.Now was the real task, she sat in the car watching out for guards. Someone had been planted to take pictures of the fight and the heist as a whole. She prayed they were able to get the goods out successfully as her mother's life depended on it.After what seemed like an hour, the guys came running out with cartons and cartons of goods. The last they carried was one of their men who had been badly wounded by a bullet. He bled profusely and was almost out of blood."We need to get out of here fast!" One of the guys screamed as the driver roared the car to life and they sped off.There were two vehicles, one carrying the goods

Amanda walked round the corner of the Café Leah used to walk. She'd been walking for minutes when she began to suspect that she was being followed. She looked left and right before branching into the Café. Matt was still working."Heyyy...Amanda, right?" Matt asked as she walked in briskly. She merely flashed him a smile and walked straight into the female bathroom. Once she was inside, she dialled her Father's number."What is it?" Leonardo asked in an ice-cold tone."I'm being followed " she whispered." Oh I see, you didn't calculate that, did you? It's called damages but it's a good thing." He said in a fair tone this time." What do you mean? How is that good?" Amanda asked looking out for the bathroom door."It means Lorenzo was impressed by what you did. Now, he wants to know if he can trust you" Leonardo replied."This was your plan, what do I do now?" She asked her eyes still scouting left and right. She saw a shadow approach the door and for a second she froze but the shadow

Bruno watched Leah walk out of the Fashion house towards the main road. He just wanted to make sure she got home safe. He had wanted to personally drop her off but for now, he had to keep his distance for her own safety. Valerie was not the one to be toyed with.He also had to find Valerie's parcel tonight. He picked up his phone and dialled DiCarlo. He picked on the first ring."Boss!" DiCarlo said over the phone" Meet me at the dock now I'm ten minutes late, don't let me get there before you" Bruno said using this as an excuse to speed through the highway. He was a good driver, and he knew DiCarlo was the only one who matched his speed.They both got to the dock at the same time"Boss," DiCarlo said acknowledging him with a bow."Not bad" Bruno smiled. "Where's your guy?" He asked DiCarlo"This way boss" DiCarlo led him to a warehouse at the back of the building. There, amongst some boxes was a man in his 40s short in height, with a small moustache on his lips."Yesus!" DiCarlo cal

Bruno watched the gathered crowd as they moped at the little girl's body. The bullet hadn't been meant for her. He watched as the ambulance personnel lifted her body onto the stretcher. In the underground world, casualties were a normal occurrence but how could a Father do that to his child? Bruno thought.He turned around and got into his car unconscious of the eyes that watched him. Leah stared as he got into the car and drove off, still wondering what a strange person like that was doing in the environment. With his cut-up hat and shades with a black suit on, she could tell he wasn't from around there.Her heart went out to the little girl who lay on the stretcher now fighting for her life, she wished she could help her. Nobody had any answer as to what really happened to her. They all said there was a shoot-out one minute and once she was on the floor, the shoot-out was over. She couldn't have been a target, Leah thought. Who targets a little girl? The whole event appalled her to

Bruno peered through the glass at the mother watching her child. He knew she had no money to take care of the bills. Even though a lot of people had contributed to the little girl's welfare, Bruno ensured that money was given to the girl's mother for her welfare. He took care of the bills himself. What he did not fully understand was what Leah was doing there.It was a good thing he had worn his mask and shades. This was a dangerous world and the innocent had no place in it. He stared at the little girl fighting for her life. The nurse had said she was out of danger, but what he saw was a little girl who watched her Father put her in harm's way. How was she going to explain that to her mother? Bartholomew was a coward and a pig, and he couldn't understand for the life of him how he had trusted him or even done business with him."Boss," DiCarlo said with his head bowed."Yes?" He said wiping his eyes codedly and lifting up his head but not looking at DiCarlo."They found him," DiCarlo

Leah stared blankly at Delphine as she spoke. "I don't know who that is" she said keeping a clueless face."Yeah, I figured " Delphine said wiping her face with her hand. " Ortega was the most feared demon of a Maffia before the Morettis even surfaced. He and the Morettis did business together severally but the city began to feel too small for all of them to build, so he branched out, hit bigger fish and started out somewhere else." Delphine replied."So, your Father is a dangerous drug Baron and you stole from him without absolute fear or thought that you would endanger your little girl's life?" Leah asked looking at her angrily."I didn't know I was pregnant with Alexia when I ran off. I was desperate, my Father had locked me up in a little room for daring to fall in love with that bastard Bartholomew. Oh how I regret ever having anything to do with him, The Bastard was more interested in pleasing my Father than in the love we had shared. I did stupid things for love and now...? He

Bruno watched the scene from the Auction over and over, shaking his head. "Sadly, Lorenzo underestimates me still," he said to DiCarlo sucking on a lollipop."Did you get the ruby?" He asked DiCarlo"Yes Boss, our collection is almost complete " he replied"Good, because I owe Ray Salvatore a token" he said smiling as he stared at his computer.XXXLeah and Alexia sat watching a sleeping Delphine, she had rolled over five times in her sleep. Leah had tried to hide the wound story from Alexia but she figured it out herself."Is she often like this?" Leah asked Alexia as they stared at her."Well, usually, she leaves me with my Aunt Marie back in Georgetown before she goes on her escapades, she usually comes visiting every two weeks with a broken arm or leg. " Alexia replied which bothered Leah a lot."I'm just kidding" Alexia laughed and Leah breathed a sigh of relief"Don't do that again" she warned seriously."I'm sorry. It's been my Mum and I alone since forever, my Dad recently cam

Still holding her lips to stop them from trembling, Leah waited to see what the men would bring out. When she had waited for some time and they didn't show up, she tiptoed in the direction of Delphine's house but the elevator suddenly opened and she rushed back to her former spot behind the dividing wall. She watched as a random guy stepped out of the elevator and walked past Delphine's house. She wished she could warn him to be quiet but he was already singing too loud like a bloody drunk. He stopped by her open house catching a glimpse of the havoc the men were causing and bellowed out."Hey! Yo! This is private property man! Does the owner know y'all are here? Come on, out..!" And a bullet went through his head which caused Leah to gasp loudly and shudder, moving back slowly. She saw them drag his body inside and shut the door.Enough had been seen, Leah rushed back to her apartment and locked the door completely, bolting every single thing. She tried to call Delphine but the call

Leah watched through the window as Delphine spoke to a strange man outside the building."Is everything okay?" Alexia asked."Yes, sweetie, everything is fine. Just checking out the view from up here" Leah lied."My mum's always speaking to strange men, so it's pretty normal " Alexia replied exposing her lie."Oh I see, is she...is she into business?" Leah asked curious"She says she sells to them, I don't know but lately she's been really jumpy. Maybe she didn't sell too well and that's making her upset." Alexia suggested."Oh really? And she leaves you up here by yourself?" She asked but before Alexia could answer, there was a knock on the door and Leah went on to open it."Yes? How may I help you?" She said to the tall man with a baseball cap and a pizza parcel. He seemed surprised to see her but he brought down the parcel anyway."Uh, pizza delivery. Can I come in and serve? It's unsliced" he said to her but she looked at him strangely. On a normal day she'd be excited and happy t

Leah stared at Matt as he spoke, "I don't know, she walked in here looking all ruffled and upset, didn't even answer my greetings and just rushed into the bathroom." Matt said"What did she go to do there?" Stephen asked which drew stares from Leah and Matt because the question was strange."I mean, she.. she could have gone in to make a call or something or she was hiding from the two men. It's a lot of things" Stephen said trying to lessen the awkwardness of the situation."That's true, she could have been in trouble. But..." Leah tried to say"I don't think she's in that much trouble" Stephen said looking up from his phone."But..what do you mean?" She asked"I have to go, " Stephen said getting up."Huh? But we were just discussing..." Leah said"I know, I know. It's urgent, try calling her later today. Maybe she'll explain better " he said and gave her a peck on her cheek and rushed out." Well...that happened" Matt said shrugging his shoulders. Leah merely sighed disappointed an

Amanda sat at the round table waiting for the guys to come in. She had called for them over thirty minutes ago. She sat staring at the clock as they all bustled in, sauntering as they liked."You're late" she voiced out. They all stopped chattering and looked at her before bursting into laughter."Who died and made you Boss," one of them said and they all laughed."You're late" one of them mimicked. She was glad they found it amusing as she toyed with her phone which was recording everything.Immediately they were done laughing, she played their voices back to them and the room went quiet."Yeah, so, with just one click of a button, I could send this straight to the Boss who in fact put me in charge of this operation. I'm very well sure he would love to let you all know who died and made me Boss" she said looking at them squarely.The buffiest of them cleared his throat and stepped forward."There won't be any need for that, Miss Amanda.

Amanda walked into Lorenzo's office, her heart thumped as she moved. She calculated every step trying to think of what her default responses would be. She had to be confident, she had only trained for this moment her whole life. Her mother's life was at stake."Sit down," Lorenzo said to her. He wore a serious expression that said something was about to go down."I like your determination and brains to pursue the family business, young Maffia" he said. She liked that he addressed her as 'young Maffia ". It was a name he had given to her after what happened to her as a little girl."Your Father is a weak man who I had tried to make strong. I gave him the side family to run because I believed he could do a good job, one day that would become your responsibility." Lorenzo said without looking at her."I don't know what to say to that, Sir," Amanda replied."There's nothing to say anymore, it's settled. Your loyalty will be constantly tested, don't think it won't. I've always known that y

Bruno stared at the man in front of him shaking visibly like a leaf, he watched the man as his bleeding face wept."Please have mercy, Boss. Have mercy on me." He said"Oh guys, he said I should have mercy..." He said looking around."I should have mercy.." Bruno said looking the man in the eyes. He nodded vehemently."Nah, what about your little girl!? Barth, we have a rule at Moretti's and it's simple...No what?" Bruno asked"Family.." the man croaked." Exactly Barth, no family. Mucho Buenos, Arivaché. Very good, that's your name, right?
