The governor's name appeared on the screen. "Leonardo," he greeted when I answered. "I assume you've heard about the documents Sebastian submitted." "I have." "The search team is taking the report seriously. They're examining the records and may decide to expand their investigation." "Then we need to prevent that from happening." "That's easier said than done. I can't simply order them to abandon an investigation." "I didn't ask you to." There was a brief silence. "I need you to find a way to redirect their attention and prevent this from escalating publicly while I deal with the source of the problem."

☠︎︎━━━━━⚔︎━━━━━━☠︎︎ Told From Afar ☠︎︎━━━━━⚔︎━━━━━━☠︎︎ The report lay open on Sebastian's desk. Another government search. Another club sealed off. Two of his establishments had been raided within days, their operations suspended while investigators searched for evidence connecting them to the distribution of Oblivion. He tossed the report aside. This was never how things were supposed to go. He had wanted Leonardo Moretti exposed. He hadn't expected the investigation to reach his own businesses. Now his clubs were making headlines for all the wrong reasons, and every attempt to contain the situation seemed to make it worse. Somehow, everything involving Leonardo always ended in ruins. Sebastian leaned back, dragging a hand across his face. It was always Leonardo. Even before Oblivion, before the clubs, before any of this, there had been Silvia. He could still remember returning to the country and being told she was dead. He had barely settled in when the

His expression was unusually calm."You're still working?" he asked.I glanced at the documents spread across my desk. "You came here to discuss my schedule?""No." He placed the folder in front of me. "I came to discuss the investigation."I leaned back in my chair. "Go on."He hesitated for a moment before speaking."The three employees we suspected of leaking information are innocent."I looked at him. "All three?""Yes. I've gone through their records again, including their communications and movements during the periods when the information was accessed. None of them initiated contact with our competitors or passed anything directly to anyone outside the organization.""Then why were their names connected to the incidents?""Because someone wanted us looking at them."

The guards at the entrance recognized me, but recognition did not make them move aside."Mr. Moretti. We weren't informed of your arrival.""Then inform him now."One of them reached for his phone."Mr. Fabrizio is occupied."I looked at him. "Do you intend to make me wait?"The guard hesitated before stepping away.I entered without another word. Fabrizio's house was as orderly as ever, its staff moving quietly through the corridors. Even the security personnel seemed carefully positioned.He had always been particular about who entered his residence and even more particular about who was allowed to reach him.A guard led me to his study and asked me to wait.Five minutes passed before Fabrizio finally entered.Edoardo's findings had established that he had been meeting someone for years. The meetings coincided with security breaches and

They've begun investigating the establishment, and their preliminary findings suggest it isn't the only location.”My jaw tightened.Sebastian was becoming careless.“How much do they know about the supply chain?” I asked.“Nothing conclusive yet. But they're working backward from the club, and they'll eventually start asking where the drugs came from.”The elevator slowed.“Eventually isn't a particularly useful measure of time.”“Leonardo, this isn't the moment for your usual arrogance.”“And this isn't the moment for you to mistake a warning for information.”Silence followed briefly.“The offic
