“So turns out Daddy Dearest didn’t just screw us over emotionally,” Luca muttered. “He was busy committing financial crimes too.” No one said anything. Not even Leo. Luca went on… “I should’ve known. The old fool always had something cooking. Even in his grave, the man’s stirring the damn pot.” He chuckled bitterly, standing up and walking to the bar. “Other fathers leave mansions, yachts, inheritance,” Luca poured a shot of whiskey, “that bastard leaves lawsuits, scandals, and a lovely side dish of FBI raids.” He downed the shot, smacking the glass on the counter. “Old fool left nothing but chaos.” Still, no one said a word. Luca leaned back against the counter and sneered. “What? Nobody gonna say anything?" After the death of billionaire tycoon Robert Van Driscoll, his final will leaves behind chaos. His three estranged sons—Leo, Jace, and Luca—must run the family company together for one year or lose everything. Leo feels betrayed after dedicating his life to the business.
