Chapter 50 A Show Of Emotion

• As they pulled up to the mansion, Jacob noticed that Evelyn had passed out completely. He gently lifted her from the car, her body limp and unresponsive. Carrying her carefully, he made his way toward the house. The grand entrance loomed before him, its massive doors opening to reveal the lavish interior of Antonio’s home. The halls were silent, the air thick with the gravity of the night's events.
• Antonio, having been alerted to their arrival, rushed out to meet them. The sight of Evelyn’s frail, unconscious form in Jacob’s arms brought an unexpected tear to his eye. Jacob, who had always seen Antonio as a stoic and unflinching figure, was taken aback. He had never imagined that the hardened mafia boss could show such raw emotion.
• Antonio quickly took Evelyn from Jacob, his movements gentle yet urgent. He cradled her in his arms, the tear sliding down his cheek a testament to his deep feelings for her. Jacob watched in stunned silence as Antonio, his usual tough demeanor cracking, carried Evelyn inside with a tenderness that seemed almost out of character.
