Maxwell, who had come in to discuss something important, just in time to hear Sofia’s words, was also taken aback. After all.
that was a rare word for insulting men.
Dan’s breathing became rapid with rage. “Sofia.”
Sofia snapped back. “Don’t call my name. You’re such a creep, and you better hope you never run into me again, because every
time I do, I’ll beat you up.
With that, she hung up on Dan before he could respond. She was genuinely furious. She couldn’t accept that five years ago, she
had been deceived by this creep.
Dan listened to the beep sound from the phone, his mind buzzing with frustration. He glanced up to see Maxwell standing at the
door, and his expression darkened even further. “You heard all of that?” he demanded, his voice heavy with irritation.
“No, I didn’t hear it,” Maxwell forced a laugh, but it came out as a nervous, awkward sound. His face was pale, and he shifted
uncomfortably, clearly wanting to escape.
Who would have thought?‘ he thought to himself. ‘She’s from the top family in Fiorenza, but she turned out like this? That’s really
something.
Dan sighed inwardly, feeling a headache coming on. He had actually forgotten about that woman for five years. He thought back
to the events in Sandara and the harsh words he had thrown at her. He knew she must hate him to the core by now.
“But I have something important to say,” Maxwell stammered nervously. He was terrified, but he knew he had to deliver the news.
Hearing his boss being insulted like that had shaken him, and he was worried about the consequences.
Dan gave him a cold, piercing stare. “Speak,” he commanded.
“Mrs. Lucano just met with Lamberto,” Maxwell blurted out.
Dan’s face darkened. Lamberto was a quirky character, but he was a crucial connection in their current plan. Lamberto is
interested in what they have, and they want to use him to connect with another important contact.
“Did they have any necessary dealings?” Dan asked, his tone sharp.
“No, they didn’t,” Maxwell shook his head.
He had been trying to get close to the Lucano family for years, but he had never been granted an audience with them–until now.
Dan couldn’t shake the feeling that Sofia was somehow involved.
Maxwell hesitated, and then continued, “Could it be because of what happened between you and Ms. Giovanni five years ago?
I’ve heard stories. Both Lottie and Sebastian are very protective.”
Dan’s expression grew even more serious. The Giovanni and Lucano families were known for their loyalty and protectiveness.
If Lottie had met with Lamberto because of Sofia, then their recent efforts would have been in vain. Lottie’s influence in Fiorenza
was formidable, and Dan knew they were in trouble.
“If it really is for Ms. Giovanni, then we have a real problem,” Maxwell said, his voice trembling slightly.

Chapter 613
Dan’s mind was in turmoil. He had been involved with Sofia five years ago, but now he had a fiancée- the daughter of the deputy
mayor of Sandara.
He felt trapped, and for the first time in a long while, his usually calm demeanor was replaced by a deep sense of unease.
At the Giovanni residence, Stephanie was lying on the couch, chatting on the phone with Ella.
Ever since she had returned to Fiorenza, Ella had been calling her more frequently than ever. But now, Stephanie actually felt a
bit apprehensive about answering Ella’s calls, because she never knew what kind of trouble Ella might have gotten into this time.
Just like now, as soon as Stephanie answered Ella’s call, she blurted out, “Come on, what did you take from Lorenzo this time?”
Stephanie was used to Ella’s knack for getting into trouble, but she was really worried that Ella might seriously upset Lorenzo.
Ella replied, “I didn’t take anything this time.”
Hearing this, Stephanie let out a huge sigh of relief. “Oh, thank goodness.” She had been worried that Ella might have taken
something from Lorenzo again.
The problem was, when Ella got into this kind of trouble, Stephanie didn’t really know how to help her out of it, and that was
pretty tough.
