Chapter 9 - The Last Man Who Wanted Revenge
Three years later, an old enemy returned.
Salvatore Rizzi.
He had been one of Rocco's former lieutenants.
He blamed Nico for everything.
He kidnapped my father.
Again.
This time, I refused to wait.
Nico wanted me protected.
I said no.
“We face him together.”
He looked at me.
“You've changed.”
“So have you.”
We found Salvatore in an abandoned warehouse.
He had my father tied to a chair.
He wanted the ledger.
But the ledger was gone.
The evidence had already destroyed the old organization.
Salvatore didn't care.
He wanted revenge.
He raised his gun.
Nico stepped in front of me.
Salvatore fired.
Nico fell.
I screamed.
But he was wearing a vest.
He stood.
Salvatore froze.
Police surrounded the building.
He had lost.
My father was freed.
That night, Nico was sitting in the emergency room while doctors checked his ribs.
I walked in.
“You scared me.”
“I know.”
“I hate you.”
“I know.”
“You're impossible.”
“I know.”
I kissed him.
He smiled.
“Still married?”
“Unfortunately.”
He laughed.
Then my father came in.
“You two finished?”
We laughed.
