LEO’S POV

My blood had been boiling since that meeting

I paced the length of my office, the glass doors shut tight, but the walls felt too narrow to contain the fury coursing through my veins.

For thirty years, my word had been law in the Verilli Group.

Nobody questioned me.

Nobody dared to push back against my directives, let alone override an executive veto in front of an international investor.

But Vicky? She didn’t just push back. She had completely disregarded my authority, looked me stra

  • Revenge With My Brother’s Best Friend    Chapter 52

    VICKY’S POVI stopped, turnin’ around to see Enzo Moretti leanin’ casually against the hood of a vehicle, his fingers twirlin’ a pair of car keys. The arrogant smile was back on his face.“Yeah, I’m done with the initial inspection, Mr. Moretti,” I called back, keepin’ my distance but fixin’ him with a cold stare. “The main cargo will load tomorrow morning, exactly as scheduled.”I took two steps toward him, decidin’ it was time to put a little steel into my words to remind him that I’m not one to be messed with.“Please, Mr. Enzo… I expect that we are goin’ to respect each other’s boundaries on this project. I run a clean pipeline, and I don’t tolerate any surprises or unlogged shifts on my docks. I’m sure a businessperson like you understands exactly why I am strict about my security protocols.”It’s a warning that says I am watchin’ every single piece of cargo he’s tryin’ to move through the Verilli lines, and he better not play any dirty games with me.I said it in parables, but I

    VICKY’S POVI frowned, my eyebrows knittin’ together in a hard glare.“Why the hell not? You just said you emptied out all the money in your account, Fre. Don’t be stupidly proud right now. Okay, look, if it makes you feel better, I’m just goin’ to give it to you as an advance on your salary. Is that okay?”“No, no, no, no,” she stammered, backin’ away from me until her spine hit the crate again.“Don’t… please don’t do that, Ms. Vicky. I will manage. I will be completely fine on my own.”“I’m not givin’ it to you as part of your wage, you idiot,” I said, my sharp mouth slippin’ out because her attitude was startin’ to frustrate me.“I’m givin’ it to you as a straight-up gift from me. From a friend.”“No, I don’t want it,” she whispered, lookin’ down at her shoes.“Why the hell are you actin’ so strange?” I demanded, crossin’ my arms over my chest as I stared hard at her.“You obviously need help, and I’m standin’ here offerin’ you help. Why are you pushin’ me away? Why you turnin’ me

    VICKY’S POVWatching Enzo saunter away gave me a wicked bad feelin’ straight in my gut.My body literally went on high alert, that old street-smart instinct pricklin’ at the back of my neck. But try as I might, I couldn’t see anything explicitly wrong with him.Maybe you’re just overthinkin’ it, Vick, I told myself, rollin’ my shoulders to shake off the tension.It was easy to get paranoid when everyone around me had kept drillin’ it into my head about how these Italians were dangerous and that I needed to be watchful of every single breath they took.I shook it off, brushin’ the suspicion away for the time bein’, and marched back into the dark cargo staging area to check if everything was still intact the way I had left it.The second I stepped inside, my heart dropped straight into my stomach.Freya was leanin’ against a crate, and she was tremblin’ so bad she looked like a leaf caught in a nor’easter. Her face had turned paper-white, and her eyes were swimmin’ in tears behind her c

    ENZO’S POVThe glass screen shattered into pieces right between her shoes. She didn’t even look down at it. Her entire body began to shake like a leaf caught in a bitter winter wind, her breath coming in short, terrified gasps.“W-What do you want from me?” she whispered, her voice cracking as she pressed her back harder against the crate.“How do you know my mother? Who… who are you?”I let a cold smile slip onto my face, leaning closer until she was completely trapped by my shadow.“Ah, piccola Freya,” I murmured, holding her terrified gaze.“I know everything about you, fratellina [little sister]. I know that you are twenty-two years old. I know you come from that miserable, crowded neighborhood on the south side of Dallas. I know your poor mother, Camilla, lives in a tiny apartment at 1427 South Malcolm X Boulevard, and I know you have two younger siblings who depend entirely on the pennies you bring home.”She let out a horrified sob, tears already rolling down her cheeks as she

    ENZO’S POVI let out a rich little chuckle, tilting my head in pure amusement.“Che grinta” [What a feisty one.], I murmured under my breath. “Straight to the business, va bene [alright]? Come, let me show you the first shipment of the new Moretti prototypes. We must ensure your customs paperwork matches the exact weight of my bellissime [beautiful] machines.”On the surface, I gave her my best, most dazzling smile.Putting on my charming, pretentious devil mask, I slipped into a role I had spent years perfecting. She thought I was just a wealthy businessman trying to flirt his way into her good graces.Little did she know the poison that was pumping through my veins.I didn’t care about importing sports cars. I didn’t care about the Verilli Group’s northern port terminal or their exclusive distribution pipelines.I was here for one thing, and one thing only: Vendetta [revenge].Blood for blood.Twenty years ago, I was just a young boy in Milan when the almighty Verilli family ruined

    VICKY’S POV“He was totally trigger-happy, Cin. He was ready to cancel the whole damn project just because he was actin’ way too territorial and caveman-ish about me workin’ with another guy.”“Seriously babes, dad has his reasons, Vicky. He’s incredibly overprotective when it comes to you,” Cindy said gently, though a small smile played on her face.“But I told Alaric that you are going to do amazing. If those Italians think they are the smartest, slickest criminals in the room, I told him my best friend Vicky is ten times smarter than any of them. So go ahead, go kill that project today. But please, be very, very vigilant. Alaric warned me too, those automotive shipping lines can be incredibly shady. If they try to smuggle any suspicious, illegal items under your sector’s registry, you have to catch it.”“Rest assured, bestie. Ain’t Nobody is smugglin’ a single damn thing past my face,” I boasted loudly.“And I’m gonna use the success of this Moretti project to shut the mouths of th
