: adjusted his glasses and spoke carefully : "If we secure this port deal, Mr. Miller, the entire Mediterranean supply line will be under our control."

"Good," : he replied calmly : "Proceed."

: nodded and flipped another page :

"For the expansion, we'll need approval from the Marseille side as well-"

: A small smile appeared on his face :

"By the way...Mr. Miller..."

: didn't turn :

"Yes?"

: leaned back slightly :

"I assume you already know..."

: He paused for effect : "Your arch rival is coming to Italy today."

: slowly turned :

"Arch biggest rival...?" : he repeated quietly :

: Walked toward the table :

Are you talking about..."

: A faint smirk appeared on his face :

"Davidson Rodriguez."

: Nodded : "Yes."

: placed his hands on the table and leaned forward slightly : "You know something, Oliver."

"I keep my friends close..." : paused :

"But my special enemies..." : His eyes darkened : "I keep them even closer."

: opened his mouth to respond :

: Looking down at him, he spoke quietly : "You really thought..."

: He crouched slightly :

"That you could betray me..." : eyes darkened : "...and I wouldn't know?"

: coughed weakly, blood spreading across the marble floor :

: sighed :

"How many years, Oliver?": He tilted his head :

"One?"

"Two?"

"Three?"

: Then he straightened his coat : "I knew a long time ago."

: He turned and began walking back toward the window :"I was just having fun playing and I even used you to get to your master."

: He stopped near the glass wall overlooking the city :

"Besides...": His tone turned colder :"You don't matter anymore."

: looked at the skyline :

"My real focus..." : He murmured : "...has always been him."

: He smiled faintly :"Davidson Rodriguez."

: A slow breath escaped him :

"It's time." : His eyes darkened with anticipation :

I think this game..." "...is about to become far more interesting."

"Sir...would you like anything?"

: slowly lifted his gaze towards her :

"Nothing," he said calmly.

: She quickly nodded and stepped away :

: eyes narrowed slightly :

: watched them silently :

: suddenly climbed down from her seat and ran toward him :

"Papa!"

: immediately leaned forward and caught her before she could trip : "Careful."

: Smiled faintly : "You spoil her too much."

: looked down at the little girl sitting comfortably in his lap : "She's four."

: chuckled softly : "Exactly. That's why she thinks she owns the whole world."

: raised an eyebrow slightly :"She's a Rodriguez."

: He frowned slightly :

"Everything looks fine," : he said calmly :

"But...where is Brittany?"

: gulped :

"She's resting."

: Looked at her : "Resting?"

"In the sleeping cabin," : she explained :

"She said she had a bit of a headache.Maybe from the flight....maybe jet lag."

"A headache?"

: Nodded : "She just went to lie down for a while."

: stood up slowly : "Alright."

"Let me check on her."

: sitting in the backseat glanced at the screen before answering : "Yes?"

"This boy never listens to me!"

: sighed : "What happened now?"

"Your son keeps disturbing me. He never stays in one place. He's always running here and there!"

: He leaned back slightly in the seat. : "Where is he now Professor Ariella?"

"I don't know," : she replied :"He disappeared again. And if I see him today-"

: Chuckled faintly : "Oh really?"

: Shook his head slightly : "You two never stop fighting."

"Don't encourage them. Just come home quickly."

: Glanced outside the car window :"I'm already on my way."

: Her tone softened slightly : "Good. Come soon."

Then she added casually "By the way... there's a new family moving into the mansion next to ours."

: Raised an eyebrow slightly :"Next door?"

"Yes"

"The moving trucks had already arrived yesterday. I don't know which family it is yet... but we'll probably meet them soon."

"I see," : he said quietly :

"Anyway, come home soon."

"I will," : he replied softly : "Take care of yourself." "I'll be there soon."

: He ended the call :

"Change route."

"Let's go to the manor."

"she's sleeping" : said quickly : "don't disturb her"

: looked at the closed door :

"I’m just checking."

"She had a headache" : insisted : "if you wake her now she'll get even more irritated"

: remained calm :

“Yes, but let me check. Maybe she needs something.”

“Do you only care about her?” : snapped :

: frowned slightly :

“That’s not what this is.”

: shook her head :

“You always do this,” : muttered : “You only care about how she’s doing.”

: tone remained controlled : "Brianna"

"fine" : said in a sarcastic tone : "go ahead and check on her"

"If you won't check her maybe something will happen to her"

: stepped forward and knocked on the door :

“Brittany?”

: glanced at davidson :

: stood quietly while listening :

: expression softened : "let her rest"

: turned away immediately and started walking away from there :

: leave behind her :

: tears had already started forming in her eyes :

"see" : she muttered bitterly :

"she's your favourite child,right?"

: sighed : "it's not like that"

"I am not even your child anymore." : said angrily :

: following her : "Brianna stop!"

: didn't stop :

"listen to me" : said firmly :

"If your sister needed something I had to atleast check on her"

: soften his voice : "it doesn't mean I don't love you"

: wiped her tears angrily :

"you know I care about you"

: wiped her last of the tears :

"I am going to get some coffee" : said coldly :

: nodded : "alright"

: took out her phone and quickly dialed a number :

"you can stop the recording now"

: paused : "yes"

"that's enough for now....no he didn't doubt anything"

: ended the call immediately :

“Walter.”

“Where can I find him?”

: raised her eyebrow : The look clearly said— Are you not going to tell me?

: simply looked at the card :

: nodded once :

: bowed respectfully : "Welcome to Italy, sir. Everything has been arranged. The residence is ready, and several business matters require your attention."

: nodded slightly :

“You’re right,” : he said calmly : “But first I want to make sure my family is safely in the cars.”

: gaze turned sharper : “And security”

: answered immediately : “fully arranged sir”

: said sharply : “As I told you… my rivals must already know I’m here.”

: said after a brief pause : “my biggest rival is in this country”

“so make sure there are no mistakes”

“not even one.If something goes wrong....” : gaze slowly passed through the security team : “I won't spare anyone”

: Flinched slightly at the cold tone :

: Instinctively moved closer to Brianna : :holding onto the edge of her sister’s dress :

: Noticed this and gently placed a reassuring hand on Brielle’s shoulder :

“It's alright” : said softly :

“Don’t worry, sir. I will personally escort Madam Jennifer to the mansion.”

: looked at him :

“My son will take the three young ladies — Miss Brianna Rodriguez, Miss Brielle Rodriguez, and Miss Brittany Rodriguez.”

“They grew up around each other. They know one another well.I trust him completely… and my training.”

“Good evening, Mr. Rodriguez.” : greeted him respectfully :

“Take care of them.”

“I will, sir.”

“Where’s Brittany?”

: glanced around as well, slightly confused :

“I thought she was with the girls”

: going towards the SUV car for the girls :

“Ahh..actually sir the eldest miss already left earlier, she said she wasn’t feeling well after the flight.”

“She insisted on going straight to the mansion to rest and change.”

“B-but Brittany didn’t say anything to me…”

: raised his brow with a glare :

“And sir…you also have the underworld business meeting tonight..It’s extremely important.It cannot be postponed...I-If it’s delayed, it may cause serious complications”

“I’ll personally escort Madam Jennifer.My son will safely drive the young ladies to the mansion.You should go directly to your meeting.”

“....”

“Fine.”

: tone suddenly became strict again :

“But make sure nothing goes wrong.My entire family must be exactly where we planned.Nothing changes.”

: bowed :“Understood, Mr. Rodriguez,as we planned out security team will follow the mistress and Ms. Rodriguez cars.”
