ENGLISH EDITION IS OUT!
“Boss!” Tristan shouted as he struggled to free himself from his restraints.
“Why is he uninjured?!” Vito angrily questioned Chino.
“Boss, listen to me. I never betrayed you! I dedicated my whole life to serving you and our group! I didn’t have any lust after Ms. Cordova! I smoked that day because Mark really wanted to sneak on her with his binoculars. When I got back, he invited me to leave. I went with him. After that, he left me with the car. I had to walk, Boss; I swear I’m not lying!” Tristan explained, tears of fear in his eyes.
“Where’s Mark?” Vito asked Tristan.
Chino remained silent and motioned to open a separate door. Upon opening it, Mark appeared with a bruised face and blood-soaked skin, covered in burns from ci******es and beaten with metal objects.
“Vito! You f**king coward!” Mark shouted.
Chino and Tristan were shocked by Mark’s disrespectful outburst toward their boss. Vito abruptly laughed, brandishing his katana.
“I saw her body! I want to f**k your woman. I want to make her scream! I know that she’s your weakness!” Mark laughed mockingly, causing Vito's smile to vanish.
“Boss, I just found out about this. Throughout all the raids we’ve done on drugs, Mark was taking something. He’s a drug addict, which is why his mind is consumed,” Chino whispered.
“You want Cassandra? You want the pleasurable satisfaction to gratify your desires, Mark? I’ll give you everything,” Vito replied. He signaled his men to take Mark to a box.
“Boss, those are rats!” Chino exclaimed.
“Why? Does he deserve a second chance? Does he deserve a meaningful life?!” Vito shouted angrily, throwing Mark into a box full of rats.
Chino remained silent and bowed his head. Tristan cried even harder, listening to Mark's screams for help.
“Let Tristan go,” Vito ordered. Chino complied, and Tristan nearly fell to his knees in front of Vito in gratitude.
“I know you are innocent. From now on, you will be Cassy’s personal guard. You’ve seen what will happen if you betray me.”
“Y-Yes! I won’t betray you!” Tristan promised, kneeling and sobbing.
The area fell silent, and Mark seemed lifeless. To ensure it, Vito continued to fire bullets at the box before leaving the warehouse.
Upon returning home, Vito found Cassandra asleep on the living room couch.
“Don Vito,” Manang Tunying greeted him.
“Why is she here?”
“She was waiting for you. Hijo... just admit it.”
“What?”
“Is this girl your girlfriend?”
“No. There’s no such relationship. We’re boss and maid.”
“You still love Marissa,” Manang Tunying replied, hiding the sadness in her eyes.
Vito couldn’t speak, his gaze fixed on Cassandra’s face. “I’m just confused. My heart and mind are struggling to decide if I want to protect you because you look so much like my late wife. Can I trust you until the end?” Slowly, Vito stood and carried Cassandra. He laid her down on her bed and tucked her in.
“Good night, Cassandra.” He left a gentle kiss on her forehead.
