163 The Request

Saverio ordered his men to drive me back to the city centre, then he and his mother left the restaurant at the same time as I did.

This time, I was too distraught to care about the blindfold.

Once again, it seemed like I was put between a rock and a hard place, and I had no idea what to do.

I'd meant what I'd told Aurelia when I said that I wasn't planning on betraying her son.

But that was <i>before</i> everything I'd worked for was put on the line.

She was right. I had no morals.

My freaked out bodyguard was more than a little confused when I asked him to pick me up from Lina's restaurant. There was just so much to think about that I even took the time to indulge in a carb loaded lunch and dessert before calling him.
