The Lost Son's Return Chapter 149
When Josh stepped out of the mansion, he scanned the surroundings, hoping for any sign of the mysterious sender. The night air was cold, and he shivered slightly, regretting that he hadn't thought to wear a jacket. The cold was an afterthought, though, as his mind was consumed by the purpose of his visit.The area around the mansion was eerily quiet. As he looked around he noticed the armed security guards stationed around the perimeter. He approached one of the guards and asked if they had seen anyone unusual or if anyone had been here recently. The guard shook his head, indicating that there had been no unusual activity or visitors.Puzzled, Josh considered that the message might have meant outside the estate, not just outside the mansion. He walked toward the gate, stepping out of the compound and into the street. The area was equally quiet, and there were no signs of anyone waiting for him. The streetlights cast long shadows, but they revealed nothing.Josh sighed, feeling frustra

The next day, when he got up from bed, Josh went to college as usual. After arriving at college he made his way to the library and settled down. He took out his stuff from his backpack as he tried to focus on his studies, but his mind kept drifting back to the events of the previous night. What was the meaning of the photo? Josh was bothered by one persistent question: Who exactly was the man in the photo next to his grandfather? The same individual had approached him at the café just a few days earlier, and throughout their entire conversation, had acted as if he didn’t recognize Josh at all. This pretense only fueled Josh’s growing sense of curiosity and suspicion. Why had the man approached him in the first place? What was the purpose behind the deliberate act of pretending not to know him when it was clear that he did? Moreover, what could be the man’s connection to Giovanni? From the photo, it was clear that there was a connection between the two of them, however he couldn't

"Hey, Josh," Amelia said with a flirtatious smile as she stood across from him. Her tone was light and slightly flirty,"Mind if I join you? It looks like you're having so much fun studying all alone."Josh glanced up, momentarily surprised by her appearance. He was so engrossed in his assignment that he didn't notice someone approaching him. "Sure. Have a seat." He replied.“What are you working on?” She asked, although she could clearly tell what he was doing. However she was just trying to start a conversation with him.Before Josh could respond to Amelia's question, he noticed someone walking into the library. It was Andrea, who walked in with a casual yet impressive presence. She was wearing a fitted, red top that showed off her curves, paired with dark skinny jeans that accentuated her figure. Her outfit was completed by shiny boots and a simple leather belt. Her hair was styled in waves, falling around her shoulders. Although she wasn't dressed in the most expensive outfits com

The doors opened and Josh, Mario, and Antonio emerged from the sleek vehicle.The vehicle's dark tint reflected the fading light of the day. The three of them had just returned from another one of Antonio’s dealings. Antonio had Josh and Mario tag along, as per Giovanni's instructions. Giovanni wanted the two of them to be tagging along so they could learn the ropes, grooming them for future roles within the family.However, Josh didn't like that. He hated having to tag along and he had grown tired of being involved in these drug deals already. His consciousness ate at him and he didn't want to be involved in the dirty dealings. And every time he accompanied Antonio, he was reminded of the risks and the shadowy world he was now involved in. But, despite his growing unease, he didn't have that much of a choice but to participate. The thing that scared him the most was getting in trouble with the law for his involvemen

The way the woman's gaze had lingered on Josh was like she had an interest on him or something.And when she had faced him, he also couldn't help to notice her striking facial features and realized she was quite attractive, with green eyes and pink lips. Despite himself, Josh felt a moment of unexpected attraction towards her. However, he quickly pushed his thoughts aside, trying to concentrate on the conversation between his grandfather and the woman.The woman continued, “He knows too much and refuses to reveal what we need. If we don’t handle him soon, his knowledge could jeopardize the entire operation.”Giovanni’s expression darkened slightly after hearing the woman's report. He nodded in understanding, and then he leaned back in his chair, his hands put together on the desk in thought. “How secure is our leverage with him?” The woman sighed, showing her frustration. “We’ve used all our usual methods, but he’s proving remarkably resilient,” she replied her facial expression unre

Having had enough, josh turned towards Mario with annoyance visible un his eyes, “Can you not smoke in here?” Josh asked, trying to keep his tone calm but unable to hide his irritation. He was annoyed by Mario. The sharp, acrid smoke was stinging his throat and making his eyes almost water.Mario gave Josh a brief, he didn't say anything, before turning his attention back to the window. He stared outside the limousine, his eyes following the fast-moving city lights, which passed in a blur. Seemingly not giving a care in the world, he took another slow drag from his cigarette. It gave him happiness knowing that what he was doing was bothering Josh, hence he wasn't planning to stop. Feeling even more annoyed, Josh’s patience snapped. Without a word, he snatched the cigarette from Mario's hand and tossed it out of the open window. Mario stared at him, surprised, as the cigarette disappeared into the night. He couldn't believe that Josh would dare do that, the audacity he had to snatch

Josh responded with a smile. “I didn't expect to run into you either.” He replied, shifting his gaze towards Mr Walton who was standing next to Amelia. Mr. Walton’s eyebrows raised slightly in surprise as he turned sharply to glare at Josh. His expression was a mix of irritation and confusion, clearly displeased by the interruption. Josh's abrupt intrusion into his conversation with Amelia was unexpected, and Walton's dissatisfaction was evident in the way he looked at Josh, scrutinizing and wondering who this newcomer was and why he had chosen to interrupt his and Amelia's conversation.Josh met Mr Walton’s gaze, noticing his visible angry facial expression.
