Sofia's POV The Ferrari 296 GTS arrived at the mansion and I got down with the Shadow Agent who had rushed to open the door for me.Armed soldiers at the entrance approached in their number and peeved a path for me to follow.When I looked around, I noticed armored vehicles and trucks filled with armed persons also arriving.They seem to be surrounding the entire mansion and I couldn't help but glance at the shadow agent who brought me."The Interagent must not be underestimated, Your Highness" He explained and his head was down."Do you think she would be brazen enough to come here? "I inquired and started making my way for the door.The armed soldiers followed us closely from behind but stopped outside the door and assumed different positions.The Shadow Agent stepped inside with me and said, "She got no associate or partner. This woman does everything alone and always succeeds. The Di Marco has never offended her to the best of my knowledge, so I have no idea why she came after yo
Sofia's POV"Your Highness... Your Highness..." I was distracted from my thoughts by the continuous call of Giada and I blinked my eyes to see her standing nervously in front of me."Giada..." I rubbed my eyes and I saw her staring in the direction of my stomach.I looked down and realized I was subconsciously rubbing her stomach."The guests are around, Your Highness"She announced and bowed her head slightly in front of me.I sighed heavily and said, "You should learn to call me by my name. You can clear the table now"She smiled softly and started clearing the dishes from the table."Your English has improved greatly, Giada" My fingers worked on the screen of my phone as I said this with a calm expression."I watched a lot of videos on YouTube, Your Highness. I want to serve you well"My phone buzzed as a message from Gloria entered and I read slowly, 'Doctor Scott is clean'I bit my lower lip, then lifted my head to Giada who was still clearing the dining table, "You're hardworkin
Five Years Later... Clancy's POV"Isn't it strange? It's been five years and there is no news about her""We have to do something and not just sit by. What if she is dead? The Di Marco Queen could be dead but the syndicate knows it could be the end of them so they put someone in place to pretend to be her and keep deceiving everyone""Yes, I agree with you. There has been no news about the actions of the Queen so it's safe to say she died of a sickness or there's a coup in the group. Whatever the heck it is, they don't have a queen""You idiots! Do you know how many times we have tried to invade Italy with our troops but they either get destroyed or captured? The Di Marco is very much at large and cannot be underestimated""Oh fvcking hell, we have been running circles for years. We need to do something before the Di Marco makes the next move""Yes, It's strange that they haven't attacked us yet which confirms that their Queen is no more to control the major resources""What if they
Five Years Later Sofia's POV "Sofia..." I was awakened by the soft taps on my shoulder and opened my eyes to see the slender woman in a flight attendant outfit standing in front of me."We have arrived in New York, Ma'am" Her composure was calm as she announced to me and I looked through the side window to see countless Maybach Exelero parked all over the private airport and bodyguards in black standing beside them.I couldn't help but sigh and collapse back to the seat, "Not again"After regaining myself, I carried my frame down the aisle and came to a halt in front of the elongated jet bridge where my assistant stood ahead."Giada, what's all of this?" I complained, taking careful steps down the staircase until I was standing close to her."Miss Sofia, your uncle asked for this, he wouldn't stop calling me" She explained with a complicated expression and I simply waved my hand."We're not going to fight a war or something. This would only bring unnecessary attention to me. Send th
Sofia's POV "Miss Aurora, are you alright?" My Assistant's voice rang in my ears and I shook my head to rid the memories that this location brought to my head.Standing before me was the MCC entertainment building, a place that brought back exciting memories but the bad image of Mr. McCain beclouded it in no time. A frown formed on my face. "I'm good" I forced a smile at Gaida, "Let's go"Together, we marched to the entrance of the building and I causally glanced to the side only to see something that made me halt abruptly.My chest slowly rose on seeing the alleyway that stretched behind the building and an unwanted memory seeped in.Mr. McCain and I once had there oral sex inside there. This made me grit my teeth and I continued moving for the entrance with a cold expression.Oh fvcking hell! Did my five years in isolation change anything about my feelings toward that devil?I understand it's difficult to forget the man who took my virginity and is the father of my quadruplet.B
Sofia's POV After having our seats opposite each other, I did not waste any more time to begin the conversation, "You know, I did my little research on you and found out that you somehow have control over every business enterprise in New York. You either have considerable shares or they are owned by your subordinates"There was a slight change in his expression and this made me cross my legs.I'm not surprised, he surely wasn't expecting me to hit the nail on the head without the slightest hesitation.He crossed his hands and looked directly at me before whispering, "Are you sure you want to have this conversation with me?"The left corner of my lip slowly rose knowing there was no turning back now.He needs to understand that I'm not a regular business tycoon but someone who knows about the underground network in New York City."I didn't come here myself just to say hello to you" I crossed my fingers too.He grinned and retracted his frame into the chair."Just as I predicted, one c
Clancy's POV"What the fvck did you say? What the actual fvck did you just say?" I banged my fist on the table as I roared at Matteo over the phone.He started to stammer, "Boss, I'm telling you the truth, they just vanished""Vanished?" I gritted my teeth, "Does this sound like a fantasy movie to you? All you had to fvcking do is follow one obstinate woman""My men indeed followed her, Boss, as instructed, but we lost her at the Riverside Drive Tunnel. I'm on my way to investigate this Boss, there must be an exit somewhere" I didn't need to hear more excuses from Matteo and slammed my phone on my desk.This was supposed to be a walkaway for me.How dare a woman come into my city and think so highly of herself?My fist had turned white and I collapsed back on my chair to see the video playing on the laptop screen before me.That brunette had found the tracker I asked my best man to secretly tag to her vehicle and she even smiled at my cameras.Was she taunting me?This woman knows abo
Sofia's POV I gently tapped away as our vehicle drove out of the articulated truck box into the garage and came to a halt there.Giada let out a deep sigh before glancing in my direction to say, "You look calm for someone who just got chased like an escaped inmate""You put your driving skills to a test today, that's all I'm interested in right now" With a small smile, I alighted and turned to Giada who also got down.She joined me and we made our way together to the entrance of the hotel building ahead."When you said he would try to find us after your first meeting, I didn't think much about it but right now, I believe this man is a pain in the ass" Giada didn't hesitate to let out her frustration and I couldn't help but giggle uncontrollably."Really? You learned the American slang"She shrugged and then pouted her lips, "I memorized them of course, how else am I supposed to blend into the society? You have been here for a long time and know everything. I bet I'll still have my ac
