“Oh, baby, I hope you’re going to get well soon. You know that our home is not complete without you. In the meantime, I’ll manage our factories and make sure that everything runs smoothly,” Cecilia said to my father.

“Thank you, honey, but I’m fine.” My father insisted.

“You can rest, Dad, and trust Asher and me to oversee the hotels that you entrusted to our care. We won’t let you down. We will make sure that everything runs smoothly.”

“Yes, Dad, including the Elysian Fields Mall that Paxton and I have been overlooking these past few months. We are going to make sure that we don’t let you down.”

"Do you see?” Cecilia beamed. “You can trust us to take care of the family business. You can tell Santino that I am a capable person for the project. I know the ins and outs of our business, Don.”

I rolled my eyes as I walked to the door and left. There was no use. They all acted oblivious to my presence, anyway, so there was no need to be there.

Luckily, we were at a very excl

    •LUCIUS•“Lucius?”‘You filed for divorce without telling me because you wanted to marry Sasha, so I did the same thing. You mentioned you didn’t sign your parental rights away on the phone, but according to this document, you signed them away to Santino Banks. He’s Nico’s legal father, and if you want to dispute that, my lawyer and Santino’s lawyer will meet with yours.’“Lucius? You’ll burn yourself!” Olivia’s voice snapped me to reality, and I jumped when I realized my cup was running over in the coffee machine.“Are you okay?” She asked after I turned off the coffee machine and spilled the coffee in my cup into the sink.The heat would have burned me if I’d stayed a second longer. My mind was so disoriented that I couldn’t feel the coffee spilling over my shoes.Camilla’s threats were the only thing ringing in my mind. I felt like a failure and didn’t know what to do after ruining my chances of having a family.I was a father without a son. It made no sense. She made me sign away

    •SANTINO•“Well, I didn’t think I’d find you here.”I rolled my eyes, picked up my glass of whiskey from the counter, and sipped.“Did you come here with Marco and Mario?”Mario hated me, and I understood why. I was angry, and if I knew his wife was around, I wouldn’t have said what I said. I knew they were trying to protect my family.“No, they are at Mario’s house celebrating his anniversary with Gia. I thought I would be the only one here. Shouldn’t you be with Camilla?”“We broke up, remember? I told you it would take me years to get her back again. I kinda feel stupid that I listened to you when you said I should break up with her. Now, she would never trust me.”“We were trying to protect you and your family. We didn’t want Vin and his men to come after them. Not after you almost lost your life in the shootout.”I single-handedly killed Vin. What could’ve stopped me from being with Camilla? There’s nothing I wouldn’t have done to protect them. They are my life, Cole."“I can hel

    •CAMILLA•“Sakai?” I answered the phone on my way to my car.The hospital called to tell me Roy was being discharged, but Francesca had a seizure and they scheduled her for surgery.I was asked to sign documents to complete her surgery preparations.“Do you remember what we talked about? The people in the library before Dad saw them and collapsed?”“Yes?”“I think it was Cecilia and Xavier. I know it sounds crazy, but Casey told me everything. She saw them together. She didn’t give me much information, but I believe her.”“Casey?” I gasped, and the car took off.Casey was working with Cecilia. Why would he believe her? Unless Cecilia broke their arrangement and Casey spilled everything to spite her.“Yes, and she told me Cecilia had been planning to vote you out of the Ross companies. Everything she had done to get Casey to impersonate you was all to get you out of the factories.”“Oh,” I scoffed. “That sounds like her. God, I wonder why she thought she could do that. I have shares in

    •SANTINO•“They met in the HOQ restaurant. They booked the place, and, according to the head chef, Lucius was devastated because Camilla rejected him. He introduced the boy to him, and after that, she gave him a document that stated he had signed away his parental rights. She told him in the face that you’re Nico’s legal father.”My heart broke when I heard that. I was so undeserving of Camilla’s loyalty, even when I had done everything to make her get back to Lucius.“Thank you, Leonard. Paul said I could trust in you.”“Before you hang up, sir. Lucius promised Camilla he would take his son from her, and nothing would stop him. Not even you.”“Of course, he said that. Well, I hope you received your money. I’ll call you again when I need your services.” I hung up the call and hopped out of my car.I looked around the location I sent Flint and sighed. This was it. Once Vin was dead, I would get back to my family.I would have to handle Lucius and ensure he never disturbed my family aga

    •CECILIA•“I’ll call Camilla about the board meeting tomorrow morning. Once she’s voted out, we will get everything done.”“That’s the plan, Daniel. But I think we might have a problem with Paxton as well. I think he knows something he’s not supposed to know, and that makes me a bit edgy. I don’t want things to go wrong once Camilla gets to Chicago. If he knows something about our plan and warns her sister, you and I will be in trouble."“Don’t worry, I’ll talk with the boy. He’s my son, and I don’t want us to hurt him. He won’t be a problem anymore.”“If you say so.” I hung up the call and sighed when I heard a knock on the door.I dragged my feet to the door, and it was Paxton. My heart kind of jumped when I saw him.I hoped he didn’t hear me when I mentioned his name on the phone. I felt bad that after I warmed up to the boy and thought I could rely on him just like I did with his brother, he just became too shady for my liking.Paxton and I had a good relationship, and if there was

    •CAMILLA•“Oh, baby. You’re home.”“Yes, I’m home.”I popped my eyes open, and Santino’s arms were around me. I was sleeping, and it occurred to me later that we officially broke up.I jumped out of bed and scolded him. “What are you doing in my room?!”“I thought this was our room.”“Yes, before we broke up. You’re not supposed to sneak up on me and cuddle me as if nothing happened.”“I wanted to protect you and Nico. That’s why I broke up with you. I didn’t want the people who shot at us to come after you. If anything happened to you, I wouldn’t have been able to forgive myself.”“That’s funny because Gia was there, wasn’t she? I don’t think Mario broke up with her and told her their marriage wasn’t working anymore just because he wanted to protect her from the inevitable.”“They shot me, Camilla!” He got off the bed and leaned toward me. “I almost died and lost you and Nico. You don’t know how hard it was for me to think I would die before making things right with you.”“You didn’t
