It was still early that morning when Valentina walked into Alessandro’s study.

The sunlight from the wide glass window fell across the desk where he sat, his phone lying beside a half-empty cup of coffee.

She closed the door behind her and said quietly, “I came as soon as I saw it.”

Alessandro looked up from the screen, calm as ever. “The video?”

Valentina nodded. “Yes. I recorded the whole thing when you went live. I thought you might need it later.”

A small smile touched his lips. “Good. It seems Sophia is trying to label me a cheat, and from the look of things—it’s working.”

Valentina walked closer and sat across from him. “I saw the news. It’s everywhere. But tell me something, Alessandro. Does Isabella know?”

He leaned back in his chair, his fingers drumming softly on the table. “Yes. She saw it this morning.”

Valentina’s brows drew together. “And what did you do? Did you show her the real video,I'm pretty sure you recorded it too?”

He shook his head slowly. “No.”

    The room was silent except for the faint hum of the air conditioning. Sophia sat on the edge of the couch, her hands clasped together so tightly her knuckles turned white. The lights were dim, warm, almost too calm for the kind of man who occupied this house. Lorenzo leaned back in his chair, his phone in hand, scrolling lazily as if the world outside didn’t exist. A half-empty glass of whiskey sat beside him, catching the low light. Sophia finally spoke. “What do you want to do with Lilian?” Lorenzo looked up from his phone, his eyes glinting with amusement. “What do you think I want to do?” Sophia hesitated, studying his face. He looked relaxed — too relaxed — and that made her nervous. “Maybe you… want to take money from Matteo,” she said cautiously. Lorenzo chuckled, shaking his head slowly. “Do I look like a man who lacks money?” She swallowed and shook her head. “No.” “Good,” he said smoothly, swirling his drink. Then he smiled in a way that made her stomach turn. “I love

    Morning came, but there was no peace in the Romano mansion. The sun was up, yet the house still felt dark. Alessandro sat behind his desk in the study, the curtains half drawn. A cigarette burned slowly in the ashtray, untouched for minutes.The door opened quietly, and Lucas stepped in. His face said everything before he even spoke.“Boss,” he began, standing stiffly near the desk, “we still couldn’t track the van.”Alessandro lifted his head slowly. His eyes were sharp but tired. “What do you mean you couldn’t track it?”Lucas shifted uneasily. “We’ve been checking since the day they were taken. We searched every camera near the mall, every road that leads out of the city. We even checked private security feeds.” He hesitated before adding, “It’s like they vanished.”Alessandro frowned, sitting back in his chair. “Vanished? You’re saying there’s no trace at all?”Lucas nodded once. “No trace, boss. Nothing. Whoever planned it was careful. They knew where the blind spots were. They c

    Matteo dropped the phone. It hit the floor with a dull sound that seemed to echo in his skull. His body felt hollow. Every muscle trembled as he turned and walked out of the room.Down the long hall, the air felt thick. He reached the sitting room, dropped onto the couch, and buried his face in his hands. His heart pounded so loudly he could barely breathe. The images, the sounds—everything—spun in his head until he thought he would be sick.A few minutes passed. Then he heard footsteps behind him.Lorenzo walked in, a towel wrapped loosely around his waist, his skin still damp. He looked perfectly calm, even pleased.Matteo stood up without thinking. Rage boiled over before reason could stop it. He crossed the room in two steps and swung hard.His fist connected with Lorenzo’s jaw.The impact snapped Lorenzo’s head to the side, but he didn’t fall. He touched his lip, smirked, and looked at his brother with cold amusement.“Why are you so angry, Matteo?” he asked quietly. “You look li

    Lorenzo slipped off his suit jacket, draping it carelessly over a nearby chair before turning towards the glass door. Matteo watched, frozen, as Lorenzo entered the room, the door clicking softly behind him, and Sophia immediately rose from the bed, her face lighting up with genuine delight. She wrapped her arms around Lorenzo's neck, pulling him close with an intimate familiarity that made Matteo's stomach twist. "What took you so long?" she asked, her voice tinny but clear through the phone's speaker for Matteo to hear as she pressed her cheek against his shoulder. Matteo gripped the device tighter, knuckles white, as Sophia leaned back to study Lorenzo's face. "I was doing something," Lorenzo replied casually, his thumb tracing her jawline. "Y'know, business." Sophia’s answering smile was a slow one,, utterly unlike the daughter Matteo remembered and knew. "Then let’s get down to business," she breathed, fingers already working at Lorenzo’s shirt buttons. Matteo recoiled at her to

    The drive to the old Lorenzo estate was long and quiet. Matteo’s hands gripped the steering wheel tighter the closer he got. The gates opened before he even stopped — as if Lorenzo had been waiting.The guards said nothing as he passed through. The house was the same as ever — grand, cold, and silent. Every step Matteo took down the marble hall echoed sharply, matching the fast beat of his heart.He entered the sitting room. Lorenzo was there, leaning lazily on the couch, a drink in hand, legs crossed like a man without a care in the world.“I can see you had a very wonderful trip, Matteo,” Lorenzo said, voice smooth, eyes sharp.Matteo forced a small smile and nodded. “It was… productive.”Lorenzo smirked. “Productive, huh? You also had a lot of fun, didn’t you? A lot of… company.”Matteo’s eyes snapped up. “What are you implying?”“Relax,” Lorenzo chuckled, swirling his drink. “I just happen to be interested in what my dear brother was doing abroad — while Isabella was busy taking o
