Lorenzo was in a club with his four friends. Enzo, Giuseppe, Rocco and Piero. He had an Elliot Rum and glass with him, and he had drank up to half of it.
One of his friends, Enzo took the bottle from him as he was about to pour another glass for himself "Man, you can't keep going on like this. Can't you tell us what happened? Was it a girl?" Enzo asked and Lorenzo glared at him "Why should I stress over a woman" He rolled his eyes away from Enzo, seemingly drunk.
Rocco, the calm one in the group spoke up " So what's bothering you? You are not usually like this" He asked as he took a shot of vodka, and the rest waited to hear him out.
"I and Alexei kidnapped Milo" He confessed and Enzo spit out his drink. Rocco stared at him surprised" You did what?" He asked for confirmation, but Lorenzo was not in the mood. "If you did not get it the first time, forget it" He drank again from his glass.
" Wait a second" Piero dropped his glass down "You and your brother kidnapped.. your brother? Make that make sense" He threw his hands in the air and leaned backwards. Giuseppe made no comment and just sipped on his wine while staring at his phone.
Rocco asked him again "So now you are regretting it?". Lorenzo looked at him like he was crazy "The only thing I regret is not ending him there. A lady in a mask suddenly came out of absolutely no where and rescued him" He said and took another drink from his glass.
"A lady in mask? Who could that be?" Piero asked expectantly and Lorenzo's eyes slowly turned to him "How would I know, Piero? I said she had a mask on for a reason, didn't I?" He looked at his dumb friend menacingly and Piero retreated back.
Giuseppe finally turned to them at the mention of a woman wearing a mask "Did you say she was wearing a mask?" He asked to be sure of what he heard, but Lorenzo only gave him a side eye and continued drinking.
Enzo confirmed it for him "Yes, that's what he said". "What kind of mask was she wearing?" Giuseppe turned to Lorenzo again, but he hit his hand on the counter "Does her mask really matter right now?" He shouted angrily, making a few faces turn to look at them, but they were all wrapped up in the fun that they forgot about it as soon as they looked away.
Giuseppe showed him a picture of a Luna venetian mask and asked again "Did she wear this kind of mask?". Lorenzo looked angrily at Giuseppe, but when he saw the mask, he calmed down a little. "Yes, it was this type" He answered.
His three friends looked at him in surprise, and then complete shock. Giuseppe could only cover his mouth and move back slightly.
Piero looked at Lorenzo "You don't know Amelia? Amelia Aguilar?" He was almost shrieking like a girl. Lorenzo looked at all of them " Who's that?"
Piero and Enzo stood up from their seat and moved away from Lorenzo. Rocco only shook his head and drank from his glass. Giuseppe was the only one who gave him answers.
"Your life will be ruined without you knowing how" He smiled at Lorenzo and continued "Amelia Aguilar is the CEO of LIA Corporation that has many other Companies under her, including her very own, Amelia's Choice. The businesses under LIA Corporation are not just hers, but many others".
He looked to his phone as he continued speaking "Amelia's Choice has many subordinates under her. Amelia's Jewelry, which is number one, Amelia's Menu, Amelia's Fashion, Amelia's Interior designs, Amelia's Beauty and many others to name a few. The people she deals with in business are the ones we call 'Admire from afar', but she does not just admire, she conquers. She's not the sweet lovely type as well. There are some people who adamantly refused to work with her at one time, and then they suddenly went missing, and their businesses got transferred to LIA Corporation".
He looked away from his phone and to Lorenzo "That's kind of confidential information though. It might not look like it now, but if she is with your brother, she is going to soar higher than ever before, because your brother is not little in comparison to her".
Rocco looked at Lorenzo "You live in Italy, and you do not know Amelia Aguilar. There is no way you would take over your family business then" He said pitying Lorenzo, but that did not get to him.
It was the words of Amelia that was on his mind.
I'm someone who could kill you right now, and make absolutely no one remember you. Yes, your brother's wife can do that
He suddenly felt chills run down his back. He realised that he had escaped death narrowly.
