A few weeks had passed and everything seemed okay around. Rhea was adjusting to living with Logan who was always busy with his work as the new CEO he was expected to start new projects that would skyrocket his company to the top, and hence she barely saw him and mainly at night. During the day she stayed with helpers who Logan had hired to look after her which Rhea frowned upon because she was fit to move around, however Logan strictly told her he wasn’t going to take his chances when his precious child was involved. Rhea was thankful because her relationship with him was slowly improving, even still she kept Carlos in mind but didn’t want to think much of it
“So why are you here?” Emiliano asked as he walked inside the study room only to find Angelo and Mario sitting as they waited for him to come, Emiliano walked to his chest and half sat as he looked at the two men giving him an eye which he didn’t understand or care about
“Well, since you practically cut us from your life”Angelo said as he got up from the sofa and walked to Emiliano and Mario continued
“And since you found another friend… I mean you literally decided to tell Logan everything but not us”this time Mario added sarcastically as he rose to his feet with a blue file in his hand containing some documents and dropped them on Emiliano’s desk and again Emiliano didn’t react to their silly complaints as he took the file and opened it
“You are not kids so stop it”he simply said and Angelo who was dressed in all black while Mario had black ripped jeans with a white muscle shirt both wearing sneakers
“Oh really, so now we are kids? tell me where was that fool all this time huh”Angelo was irritated because despite everything he was being treated like a stranger, how come Logan knew that Carlos was Rhea’s father not just that, but Rhea got married to Logan as per Emiliano’s suggestions. In the past Emiliano never did anything without telling him or asking him but since they became buddies with Logan he and Mario seized to exist for him, and hence he was unhappy
“Drop it and tell me why you are letting your brother do something drastic”Emiliano slammed the file shut as his cold eyes lifted to looked at Angelo who dropped his serious angry expression and joined Emiliano in half sitting on the desk while Mario who wasn’t looking like himself stood before them
“Well he’s here ask him… I don’t know why, so suddenly he decided to teach people a lesson”Angelo remarked with a shrug not wanting to be a part of whatever Mario wanted to do
“I have decided to make my father’s killer pay… Emil I’m not going to rest knowing full well dad didn’t just die a natural death”Mario said seriously, since he grew up and became a man. He started investigating his father’s illness, they said his dad died due to heart failure and other illnesses that the doctors found him with however that wasn’t the case because according to the info he found, his dad died because someone had replaced him with real medicine with fake ones which formed poison and killed him. Everyone thought he died due to heart failure, but he was killed, and his uncle took the wealth along aside with every assets they had
“This man is dangerous, Mario I think it’s best to bury this”Emiliano said softly he greatly understood what Mario was going through however he didn’t like the idea of Mario involving himself in matters that would raise drug dealers and other dangerous people
“I don’t care and that damn bastard is lucky because when I just found him, he died a few weeks ago”Mario said in frustration which surprised Emiliano and Angelo
“Ramon is dead?” It was Emiliano who asked and Mario nodded. Ramon was some powerful drug dealer based in Italy. Apparently Ramon was an old man with an ambition to rise to the top and gain billions and to achieve that he had some extra help to make dirty fast cash and that was being an underground drug dealer and Armando’s number one enemy but if he died then his beloved son was to take up the business and of what he heard Ramon’s son was twice as shrewd as his father
“That bastard was lucky to have died but according to Armando’s info… he left his children behind, and I’ll pay them a visit and ruin them”never in their life had Emiliano and Angelo seen the Mario standing before them, he was bitter full of anger and without remorse however Mario couldn’t care less he had nothing to live for, and hence he had taken it upon himself to avenge his father and he knew whom to go to and that was Armando
“Did you talk to Armando yet?”Angelo asked her he got off the desk and walked to pour himself a drink and Mario nodded
“I did, and he said I could camp at his mansion, so he could monitor my moves”Mario had no choice than to go to Italy find the killer’s children and make them pay, but he had to agree to all Armando’s rules because only Armando had the power to help him out hence staying under his wings was something he greatly needed
“In that case when are you leaving?”Emiliano asked instead of prying more, if Armando was involved, then he had nothing to worry about if there was anyone capable of protecting Mario from trouble then Armando was that guy
“Tomorrow… I want to find the person taking over Ramon Ortega’s business… he has two remaining apparently his precious son and a daughter I suppose”he didn’t know much, but he had little info on Ramon and his family
“Okay then… I guess there’s no stopping you from doing this… for now, stay calm and go say goodbye to someone more deserving”Emiliano said and got off the desk just as Angelo handed him a glass of whiskey which he took and walked to sit behind his desk
“Okay boss”Mario remarked knowing full well who Emiliano referred to and immediately rushed to the door to talk to sia who was busy preparing for dinner. Emiliano and Angelo gulped down their whiskey and slammed their glasses on the table at the same time and sighed,
“Who is she?” Emiliano asked and Angelo smirked
“I don’t know man… and I guess it didn’t end well that’s why he’s acting this way”Angelo knew his little brother very well and Mario was someone who was dedicated and always loved taking on new things; however, he was soft at heart and didn’t like to make mistakes. Recently, he had noticed how Mario’s behavior had changed drastically he was more irritated with everything little thing and always preferred to be alone which he never did
“Then in that case, It’s for the best that he’s leaving… maybe fate will bring someone for him”Emiliano said with a shrug and Angelo nodded, if a woman rejected Mario, then it was for the best that Mario was moving to Italy that way he could clear his mind and focus on something else
“Yes tell me”Emiliano answered his phone which has been ringing for some time only to rise from his seat in anger
“Get hold of him… do anything to keep him from leaving that rehab okay”he yelled over the phone with anger and cut the call, Angelo noticed the rage radiating from the man, and he knew things were getting nasty
“What happened?”
“He’s acting up… he prefers not to continue his fucking treatment!”he was more than irritated with what was happening hence he needed to take a trip to the rehabilitation center and talk to the doctor in charge and that was to happen after Sia’s planned dinner for five people, angelo, Mario, Tara and of course him. Sia was excited about everything that was why she had planned dinner.
“It’s better to keep him there… we can’t let him out”Angelo said seriously and walked to the door and out he was, emiliano stood there for a while lost in thoughts not sure what to do but he had to try and do something.
