Chapter 6 - Matteo Moretti Called Me and Offered My Life in Exchange for the Little GirlMy phone rang.
Matteo.
His voice was calm.
“You have something I need.”
I looked at Sofia.
“No.”
“She knows where the evidence is.”
“She doesn't know anything.”
“She knows enough.”
I asked:
“What evidence?”
He laughed.
“Your father's final ledger.”
I looked at Elena.

My father had hidden the ledger.

Matteo gave me one hour.
“Bring the child.”
“No.”

Elena stepped forward.
“He has her.”
“Who?”
“Your mother.”
My heart stopped.
My mother was alive.
Matteo had kidnapped her.
Sofia took my hand.
“Don't let him hurt Grandma.”
I promised.
“We'll get her back.”
I assembled my men.
Then I made a decision.

I wasn't going to trade Sofia.
I was going to destroy Matteo.
