"Hey, Josh," Amelia said with a flirtatious smile as she stood across from him. Her tone was light and slightly flirty,"Mind if I join you? It looks like you're having so much fun studying all alone."Josh glanced up, momentarily surprised by her appearance. He was so engrossed in his assignment that he didn't notice someone approaching him. "Sure. Have a seat." He replied.“What are you working on?” She asked, although she could clearly tell what he was doing. However she was just trying to start a conversation with him.Before Josh could respond to Amelia's question, he noticed someone walking into the library. It was Andrea, who walked in with a casual yet impressive presence. She was wearing a fitted, red top that showed off her curves, paired with dark skinny jeans that accentuated her figure. Her outfit was completed by shiny boots and a simple leather belt. Her hair was styled in waves, falling around her shoulders. Although she wasn't dressed in the most expensive outfits com

The way the woman's gaze had lingered on Josh was like she had an interest on him or something.And when she had faced him, he also couldn't help to notice her striking facial features and realized she was quite attractive, with green eyes and pink lips. Despite himself, Josh felt a moment of unexpected attraction towards her. However, he quickly pushed his thoughts aside, trying to concentrate on the conversation between his grandfather and the woman.The woman continued, “He knows too much and refuses to reveal what we need. If we don’t handle him soon, his knowledge could jeopardize the entire operation.”Giovanni’s expression darkened slightly after hearing the woman's report. He nodded in understanding, and then he leaned back in his chair, his hands put together on the desk in thought. “How secure is our leverage with him?” The woman sighed, showing her frustration. “We’ve used all our usual methods, but he’s proving remarkably resilient,” she replied her facial expression unre

Walking behind Giovanni, Josh entered the venue and took a moment to glance around the room. The lavish decor and the elegant attire of the guests clearly indicated that this was a high-profile event. Everyone was dressed in luxurious suits and gowns, adding to the event's air of sophistication and exclusivity.Josh noticed that paparazzi and media personnel were present at the event, their cameras flashing as they captured the high profile attendees. As they turned their attention to him, Mario, Antonio, and Giovanni, Josh's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly looked away to avoid having his face captured. He felt uneasy at the thought of being photographed and potentially appearing on the front or back page of a newspaper. The idea of his connection to the De La Cruz family being exposed made him nervous, especially since he was concerned about possible repercussions at college.Despite his growing awareness that Giovanni was also known as a respected business tycoon Josh couldn't

Mr Chris Walton scoffed as he felt even more annoyed by Josh's presence, ‘What a fucking loser,’ he thought, his mind filled with disdain. Mr Walton was convinced that he was speaking to someone who really looked up to him. However he wasn't flattered by that, instead he was even more annoyed, not understanding why Amelia would pick someone who was clearly inferior.Mr. Walton’s eyes narrowed as he glared at Josh. “It seems the feeling isn’t mutual,” he said, his tone cold and blunt. “I’m not sure what you’re doing here, but you’ve picked a terrible time to show up.” Josh was at a loss for words as Mr. Walton’s response registered in his mind. He hadn’t expected him to be so rude. To say the least, Josh was very disappointed, because this was someone he really admired. Walton had been nothing but dismissive and disdainful towards him, and his behavior left Josh with the impression that he wasn't the polite, high-profile individual he always pretended to be. The interaction had been u

Amelia glanced at Josh with a curious expression, her eyebrows slightly raised. “So, how do you know Marco Ramirez?” she had to ask, as her curiosity was eating at her. She had been trying to find out who Josh really was and his background for so long now, however he never disclosed anything, but this seemed like the perfect opportunity to ask him about it.Josh, who had been engrossed in the woman speaking on stage, was startled by Amelia’s question. He turned to face her, momentarily caught off guard. The unexpected question caused him to hesitate, his mind racing as he thought of a response. He wondered if he should reply to her or not. And how much should he even reveal to her? He wondered. He knew that admitting his connection to the Ramirez family could address Amelia’s curiosity and potentially throw her off from doing some more digging into his more sensitive family ties. It was very important to Josh that no one should ever find out he was a member of the De La Cruz crime f
