Vicktor wanted to leave as he was angry and hurt. Michelangelo made him relive his worst moment. But he had promised Michelangelo that he would be with him till his bodyguard recovered and a few more joined his team of guards. With a sigh, he tried to forget his past. He went near his car and waited for Michelangelo to arrive. He knew he did wrong by creating a nuisance at the funeral, but he didn’t like anyone making him remember his past and his protégé. He taught her everything, but she was better. Oh! How he missed her. If she had been there, she would have taken over Tikhon’s business. There would be no need for the nomination and every stupid process. She would be the Boss, no doubt. Vicktor was in his thoughts when Michelangelo arrived with his whole team, father, brother, and all. “I am sorry. I was just curious. Didn’t think you would be so angry,” said Michelangelo. “If you want to hear that I am sorry too, you won’t ever hear that…” said Vicktor. But Michelangelo interr
Severino and Vicktor panicked when they saw Michelangelo running away from them. He never wanted that life and now he was thrown into that. He would have to deal with murders, gunfire, and bodyguards. He was not allowed to go anywhere without people following him. Severino and Vicktor jumped as soon as the lift opened. Everyone kept looking for Michelangelo but was already in the lift going towards the 22nd floor. “That idiot!” shouted Severino. “Where do you want to look for him? I am going left and then I will keep checking every floor up, you take right,” ordered Vicktor. “Wait!” suddenly something struck his brain. “What?” asked Vicktor. “He is here to meet her, he is not leaving without meeting her. That idiot!!!!” shouted Severino. “What, now?” “He didn’t run away from us, he ran towards her. He wanted to spend time alone with her, I am sure. I am going to kill him for giving me a heart attack,” Severino gritted his teeth. “Are you sure?” asked Vicktor. “Yes, I am sure.
Renata was so glad that she a made a fool out of Michelangelo. She saw Severino walking by and teasing him. That made her smile even brighter. Her work for today was done. The presentation was given, and she didn’t have to give it. She knew she wouldn’t be able to concentrate before Michelangelo, his one look was enough for her to melt. He just nudged her neck and her whole shivered with pleasure. She didn’t want that inside the conference room. “Well done, everyone! Ren! Make sure you keep in contact with him,” said Angela. “Okay, I will. I will keep pestering him about which proposal he likes better or if he wants some other AD,” teased Renata. “Stop being a smart ass. No need for pestering, just ask him after a day or two,” said Angela. “Yes, boss!” saluted Renata and looked at her team. After Angela went away, they all wiggled their fingers against each other and giggled with happiness. The day ended and Renata went back to her home. She was glad that she was done with Michel
Renata was happy to see new people volunteering for charity work. It was good that youngsters were getting involved in charity. “You come here often?” asked Narciso after a minute of silence. “Yes, this is my turf, you can say,” said Renata. “My friends and I always come here and help Father Paul.” “Father Paul?” asked Narciso. “That old man helping those homeless people, is Father Paul,” said Renata. “Oh!” “How did you hear about this soup kitchen?” asked Renata. “Oh, the hotel at the corner, you know that, right? I work there. I saw this soup kitchen every day on my way home. So, this weekend I thought of coming here. Being in the service industry, makes me want to help people even more,” said Narciso. What Renata didn’t know was that every word out of his mouth was a lie. “Wow! That’s nice.” “You mentioned your friends. So, are you alone or did your friends come here too?” smiled Narciso. “Oh, everyone’s here. All of my four friends are here, but I only see three of them h
The girls were happy that someone was there to help them and now they would soon get the permit that they needed. Maybe Narciso came like an angel to them. “He was a good person,” said Valentina. “Yeah, has a small job in the service industry and came here to volunteer. On top of that, he wants to help us, he is nice,” said Renata. “And him being handsome does not hurt anyone,” winked Hazel. “What does that have to do with anything?” asked Ambrosia. “Wherever Renata goes, handsome men follow,” joked Hazel. “Wherever your head goes, my punch follows. What do you think about that?” taunted Renata. “Okay! Sorry!” said Hazel. All the girls took care of the boxes they brought with them and folded them neatly for reuse. This time they booked only two cabs. “Bye, Father Paul and thank you for everything,” said Sameeksha. “No, thank you, girls. You guys help us a lot,” said Father Paul. The cabs arrived and the girls left after saying their byes. They were happy and giggling and lau
Severino kept laughing at Michelangelo after they left Renata’s office. Idiot Michelangelo ran away from them to meet Renata and spend time with her alone and then she pulled that prank on him. She sent her team inside and made them give a presentation to Michelangelo. “Okay, shut up!” scolded Michelangelo. “I am sorry, that was funny,” laughed Severino. “On a serious note, what is your relationship with that girl?” asked Vicktor. “What? There is no relationship!” Michelangelo was defensive. “Michel! Do you want a relationship?” asked Vicktor. “Don’t tell anyone but I am not sure. Some part of me wants everything to do with her and other parts want nothing to do with her for her own safety. I don’t want her to get involved in the mafia world. Her world is too different,” said Michelangelo. “Then you must stay away from her. Now that Yoshiro knows you are somehow related to her, stay away from her,” said Vicktor. “That is the problem, Vik, I don’t want to stay away but at the sa
The case of who killed Xiaojian was still ongoing. No one knew who ordered the hit. Michelangelo was asked not to leave the house until everything was sorted. As he was the boss of his company, it was not compulsory for him to go. Severino was there to see that he didn’t leave while Vicktor was searching for new bodyguards. But Michelangelo had only one job, check if Renata was doing okay. He would be glad when she would send a message teasing him. “Hi! Did you go over all the material Angela gave you or do you need more time?” she asked. “I need more time,” replied Michelangelo with a smile on his face. Why? Weren’t you listening when she told you everything? I was thinking about you. So, you didn’t listen to anything she said. What can I say, you were in my mind. If you would have given the presentation, maybe I would have listened. No way you have listened. Why do you think I asked Angela to give the presentatio
While Michelangelo was busy flirting with Renata, Vicktor was busy trying to figure out who was behind the attacks. Stephan was cross-checking every man in his Odal book and trying to figure out who bought those men. Were they bought by a single entity or different people? Was the attack done by a single faction or was it a group effort? As per Michelangelo’s suggestions, the photographs of the men were altered to look like their childhood pics. Stephan and Vicktor were cross-checking with every Odal. They had to start looking for their files from the beginning. No one knew which year they might find the boys’ pictures. Stephan talked to every Consigliere, and no one had any clue who attacked the nominees. Everyone swore that their Cosca had nothing to do with the attacks. If no one from the Cosca had anything to do with the attacks, then who attacked the nominees, and that too with the help of Odals? Someone was fishy about this matter and Stephan had to find it out. Year by year e
