Knock! Knock!All four of them turned to the door at once and asked, "Are you expecting someone?" Amanda asked as she walked towards the door, "No, I'm not expecting anyone." Leah shrugged and turned towards Anthonio, who gave her a scrutinising gaze."You didn't do another dangerous charity again, did you?" he asked as Amanda pulled open the door to see three handsome men dressed in suits standing at the door. She whistled and licked her lips with starry eyes. "Damn, it's my lucky day or something? Why am I meeting handsome guys today? If I can't have all, can I at least have one of you?" She asked innocently."Are you Leah Watson?" the leader of the group asked, and Amanda stood straight with her hands crossed over her chest as she gave him a once-over. "And who might you be? Why are you looking for Leah Watson?" she asked sceptically as she remained in a protective stance."I'm DiCarlo; I have a message from Miss Leah, which isn't you," DiCarlo pointed out as his eyes met Leah's.L

“Your name?” The stern-looking middle-aged woman with curly blonde hair demanded as Leah stepped into her office. She had been so focused on her work that she only glanced at the younger woman before returning to the pile of files before her.“Leah Watson” Leah provided nervously, her eyes roaming the minimalist yet expensive-looking office decorated with framed pictures of dresses, suits, and models.“You are one hour early; do you live close by?” the older woman asked without taking her eyes off her work. Her hands scrambled on the paper as she signed a document.“No, ma’am. I live forty-five minutes away,” she explained.Stephen had come to get her this morning to make sure she wasn’t late for the appointment, as he repeated to her that her boss hated tardiness and that as long as she followed instructions she would enjoy working there.Leah's eyes landed on the nameplate on her table, and she silently read out the name “Kylie O'Connor." Her eyes widened as the name rang a bell. Ky

'Bang, Bang'Bruno pointed the gun at the fat man's head, the man's face a mask of fear and panic. Bruno laughed with a cold and mirthless sound. With a flick of his wrist, he cocked the gun and fired at one of the fat man's underlings, dropping the man to the ground in a pool of blood. The fat man trembled, stammering, "I didn't do it! Please!" Bruno's lip curled into a sneer, his eyes cold as he looked at the terrified man."You expect me to believe that when all the evidence points at you? What do you take me for a fool?" Bruno asked as he gestured to Dicarlo; the latter moved close and handed him a stack of pictures and documents.Bruno spread the pictures out in front of him and quirked his lips as he noticed the man in front of him shiver in shock and fear. "Doesn't this picture serve as proof of the crime you committed? The bank statement also proves that you have been receiving money from unknown sources. Now tell me, Senator Maverick, do you still insist that you are not col

"This is your monthly pay, but due to the agreement between you and the Morettis, you will only get twenty per cent monthly for your expenses, and eighty per cent will go to Moretti to pay off your debts until it is fully paid," Lily explained as they went over the employment formalities. Leah looked at the document she was meant to sign, and her eyes went wide at the figures that were written as her salary.She looked from the document to Lily, who had a smile on her face. "Are you sure this one is for me? The twenty per cent is what I would normally make in three months at my old job; shouldn't it be less now that I'm repaying a debt?" Leah described making sure that she was reading the right document.Lily chuckled lightly, her eyes twinkling in amusement at the confused look on Leah's face. "You are working for Moretti now; there are lots of risks in the job as well as exhausting long and stressful hours of work, so the pay isn't much. Besides, it will increase after you become a

Bruno sat on the wooden floor with both his legs folded under him and his back in a straight posture, his face held no expression as he watched the older-looking man sitting before him make a pot of Japanese-styled tea with his brows furrowed in concentration.Ray Salvatore served two cups of tea and placed one in front of Bruno, he raised his head to acknowledge the man sitting in front of him for the first time, "I'm getting old and it takes so much time for me to brew tea nowadays even my old injuries from when I was a youth in the street are resurfacing recently" he laments and Bruno's eye twitched while trying to maintain his coolness.'Who are you trying to deceive old man? ' he thought to himself with a subtle eye roll.He had seen that the man had intentionally slowed down the process as a way to test out his patience he said nothing as he picked up the tea and took a sip. "Even if my old age had affected the timing I can guarantee you the taste is still just as good, I got th

"There is a new club in town, let's check it out together tonight" Amanda announced excitedly when she heard Leah come in but her excitement quickly dimmed immediately she noticed the large bags her roommate was holding with an exhausted look on her face. "Why do you look so worn out? You were never this tired even when you worked at a cafe and you had to stand most of the day" she pointed out with a disapproving frown.Leag sighed and mentally apologized to Lily fit making people have a bad impression of her team."It's mostly the school project that is making me busy these days not g new job" she corrected and Amanda snorted as Leah dragged herself into the kitchen to get a cup of water, "We got a new professor in my year and he is too strict on his projects and practical. We get at least two dresses to work on from his class this month," she explained "If it's not done well, we will have to start over again, so frustrating""Sucks to be you" Amanda commented giving Leah a pitiful lo

CHAPTER 14"Boss, we successfully acquired the first piece of the Antique as you requested," Di'Carlo said walking into Bruno's dimly lit office at the Club."Any challenges?" Bruno asked as Di'Carlo placed the parcel, a big black box on his table for assessment."Not at the auction, Boss. Ryan and Antonio confirmed with the Auction Manager that this is indeed an Original piece, but the only problem is that it is a twin set" Di'Carlo replied."It's only half a piece?" Bruno asked. ", Seems like the Black Market is slowly becoming a tough land to navigate", he comments, a smirk playing on his lips."24 hours, find the second piece as soon as possible. We must have the complete antiques before the bidding." Bruno stated"Yes Sir" Di'Carlo replied.***Her experience working with Diana was fast becoming an exhausting one, she refused to help her make any adjustments to the dress idea they had created."Mmm this looks good, but you shouldn't add lapels.
