A few minutes after Rebecca left, an armored car appeared to pick up Luciano. He was lucky enough to still have his phone with him and had been able to call Velan, his assistant, to get him a vehicle to leave there."Sir, are you okay?" the frightened woman asked as soon as Luciano got into the truck.He was covered in blood. It wasn't just the blood that had dried on his body and clothes after killing his enemies, but his shoulder wound seemed to be unstoppable. The woman quickly took the first-aid kit and tried to control the bleeding, making sure the wound didn't become complicated while they returned to Luciano's mansion and a doctor could attend to him."Relax, Velan. Nothing's wrong," he said calmly. The woman looked at him surprised."Sir, you just got ambushed and almost died," she exclaimed, confused by Luciano's attitude."I know, and you'll take care of finding the culprits so I can punish them, but in the meantime, there's nothing to worry about."Velan couldn't believe it
Rebecca arrived at the bar a few minutes after all the chaos had happened. She hurried into the establishment to look for her friend. She didn't hesitate to tell her what had happened, so her friend immediately got her a drink."You need this," she insisted, handing it over. Rebecca took a deep breath and downed the shot that Marisa gave her. She winced at the burning sensation in her throat."Now you're ready to meet your next boyfriend," Rebecca looked scared at her friend. She just laughed.Marisa told her that she had set up a blind date for her. Rebecca refused, but her friend insisted. It was a very eligible bachelor who belonged to a respected family close to her father's. Marisa believed that this millionaire hunk was just what her friend needed to forget all the complications in her life."I'm married, remember?" Rebecca assured her seriously."Close to divorce," her friend clarified. Rebecca rolled her eyes and sighed resignedly.There was no way to change Marisa's mind. Whe
The ringing of the phone could be heard throughout the room. Rebecca hurried to answer it, unaware that the news she was about to receive would change her life forever. Her parents had died in a car accident that same morning."What happened?" she asked the police officer on the other end of the line."They went off the road on their way back from Glem City.""The mine," she whispered."I'm sorry, what?""Nevermind, thank you for letting me know."In the following days, Rebecca focused on preparing for the funeral. She didn't have time to grieve, only allowing herself to do so in short moments when she was alone. She had to stay strong; there was so much to take care of. Not only did she have to prepare the farewell for her parents and console her devastated sister, Diffu, but she also had to take over the family business. As the older of the two, she would now be the head of the company.The death of her parents had complicated things for the company. She knew that her father had bee
Joseph Lombardo arrived at the mansion where Luciano lived. He had important news to communicate to his grandson. The young man had seen his grandfather's limousine parked in front of his house from the window, so he hurried to meet him. As soon as the old man entered the mansion, his grandson welcomed him with a small bow and then approached to hug him.Luciano not only had enormous respect for his grandfather, but he loved him deeply and was very grateful to him, as the old man had been the only one who had taken care of his upbringing after the death of his parents and therefore felt that he owed him everything he was now."I wasn't expecting to see you here today," Luciano said with a smile."I know, but something important has happened that I had to communicate to you immediately," Joseph exclaimed as he looked at his grandson's serious face. Luciano helped the old man to sit on the sofa, and after asking the employees to leave, Joseph resumed the conversation."A great friend of
Preparations for the wedding began. Both Rebecca and Luciano were unhappy with the situation, but they went ahead because they had no other options. That marriage meant nothing more than another obligation they had to fulfill in their lives, so they never wanted to get to know each other, not even to exchange a word, because they were so frustrated with everything that they simply agreed that they would meet at the altar.For the next 30 days, each one left the task of organizing the wedding and agreeing on all the preparations in the hands of their personal assistants. Only they and a couple of people who would serve as witnesses would be present at the ceremony. The orders that Luciano and Rebecca's employees received were that they should not invite anyone, as they wanted the whole affair to be as simple and quick as possible. Luciano believed that his future wife would hate him for that and Rebecca had the same idea with him, but in the end, it turned out that both wanted the same
The next morning, Rebecca moved into Luciano Lombardo's beautiful villa as stipulated in her contract, but he still hadn't shown up. Rebecca was unhappy with the situation, but she had to act as if everything was going great. She had to maintain the facade as much as she could, or at least until she secured the future of her parents' company. So when Grandfather Joseph Lombardo showed up at the door a week after the wedding, the young woman greeted him with a big smile on her face."Your father told me a lot about you. He was very proud," the old man told her as they chatted peacefully in the villa garden.At first, Rebecca felt somewhat uncomfortable with the man's presence, as she did not understand how he could be such a good friend of her father's without her ever having heard of him. But the stories Mr. Lombardo told her during his regular visits confirmed that Robert and he were indeed quite close. In fact, on a couple of occasions, the old man had come with some photos of him a
Luciano was in the Mustaccio family warehouses. It was an important business. If he could sell his weapons to this family and create an alliance with them, he would dominate the entire market in the area. That was why it would also be a dangerous transaction; he knew that rival mafias would seek ways to stop him. They could not allow him to take more power than he already had."Good evening," Luciano greeted the Mustaccio representatives in a serious tone as he approached them. They were waiting for him in the center of the warehouse.Luciano was dressed in an all-black suit, except for white gloves, which was his trademark within the mafia and which had earned him the nickname "The White Devil". In addition, he was known for his neat and clean appearance, not only to avoid leaving traces when he got rid of his victims but also because it allowed him to maintain the image of power he sought to show. Everything with him always looked impeccable and elegant. He did not like dirt and was

A few days earlier, Rebecca was in her office reviewing some documents she had to submit. Vetter was driving her crazy with all the complaints about her work. It seemed like he was looking for even the smallest detail to criticize and make her angry, but she did what she could to control herself because she knew he did it on purpose so she would resign, and she wouldn't give him the pleasure. A knock was heard on the door and it opened."The day has come, friend!" exclaimed Marisa with excitement as she entered the office.Rebecca took her eyes off the documents she was reviewing to observe the girl who entered cheerfully. She smiled and got up from her seat to approach and hug her. Marisa returned the hug joyfully. It had been a while since they had seen each other, since Luciano's mansion where Rebecca had been living was really far away and it was difficult for them to meet. In addition, Marisa had dedicated her days off to a personal project, so she couldn't even help Rebecca move
