Chapter 61

• "Vincenzo, I suppose?" Lino had fed me with the information about his brother's name so it wasn't something new to hear.
• "Yes." He cleared his throat. "And that calls for an explanation as to why I had to pay so much price to have you." He smiled, not knowing that his words were like poison to me.
• "Isn't it so amusing how a man like you can put a price tag on a girl young enough to be your own daughter? Tell me, what would you feel if I was your daughter being tossed here and there, denied the right to education and worse, not given the right freedom to be with my family!" I was fuming and the old man didn't seem to flinch or care.
