Chapter 256 Mastermind

• Alessandro’s eyes flickered between the gun barrel pressed to his wife’s head and Rafael’s cold, calculating gaze. He felt a surge of panic like he’d never experienced before. His heart was pounding so loudly in his chest that it felt like it might burst out. Aria was his love, his life, his everything, and he had to be extremely careful while negotiating with that idiot Marino Don.
• "Don Rafael, don’t do anything reckless," he warned, raising his hands in a gesture of surrender.
• "Put your gun down and tell your men to do the same," Rafael demanded, pressing the cold metal harder against Aria’s temple, making her wince at the painful contact.
