he said. He threw a contract at me. "Carlos specifically asked for you. I'll give you a chance to live as long as you make him happy tonight," he said. Carlos, that perverted illegal arms dealer who loved using precise instruments to torture and kill women in bed. Cesare was willing to send me to hell to protect his smuggling business while I was seriously ill. I clenched the bedsheet tightly and stared at his handsome yet ruthless face.

The tension was razor sharp on the negotiation table. The Don of the Cecilia family was Valentino Cecilia. According to the rumors, he was even more ruthless and bloodthirsty than Lorenzo. He was a master of more than half of Oropa's weapons shipping routes, a true king of the sea lanes. Lorenzo brought with him his best interpreter, who failed at the worst possible moment.

The words burst out of her mouth. "Yeah, Mr. Theodore Agustine Williams Jr. The new president and CEO of Tiger Estate Corporation. He took his late grandfather's position Apolinario Gonzales just a year ago since he was the sole successor of The Williams family." Liz informed her. She gasped as she recognized who it was. How could she forget that Thyago is the only grandson and heir of the Gonzales clan since his mom was the only child and him being the only heir?

“You left me to die alone. Now you get to watch your family die because of choices you made before they were even born.” “You were Dario’s stepmother,” Cara said suddenly, pieces clicking into place. “You raised him.

The moment he decided I was disposable.” Cecile’s mask of composure slipped, revealing decades of buried pain and rage. “Everyone hurts Cecile Santos and thinks they can get away with it.

“Grandpa Bennett, come! Let’s go open the door! Mummy’s back!” Her voice was so full of excitement that it made my heart swell. Cecily’s little legs moved in a blur as she pulled Grandpa along, eager to greet us. The door opened to reveal Carlos standing in the entryway, Cecily immediately ran into his arms with a gleeful shout of, “Uncle Carlos!” She hugged him tightly, burying her face in his neck. Her bond with him was something else entirely an unspoken comfort, a deep connection that was impossible to ignore.

I gripped the phone tightly in my hands as I stared at the string of numbers on the screen, feeling my fingers running cold. In the past three years, my husband, Carlos Zappa, had been incredibly attentive to me. He spent millions of dollars on buying jewelry for me, tens of thousands of dollars on private fireworks displays, and even burned his contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars just to light up my cigarette.

He watched Iggy type in the name and then pause for a few seconds before attacking the keyboard in a manner that intrigued Caleb. Having been born in a time that had none of the present gadgets he saw, he was often awed by their abilities, but never bothered enough to learn more about them, he was quite satisfied with the basic knowledge he possessed.

In an instant, the smile on Cecil's face froze. He'd assumed that after he introduced himself, Cassian would at least give him some respect. Who would've thought that Cassian would ask him who he thought he was? Cecil was furious. He was the chairman of the Quadrant Association! Not only was he in charge of the Draconian Order's business across three states, but he also stood on equal footing with Cassian, the boss of Rivershire's underworld.
