Chapter 31 - Chapter 31

Alessia's world shattered, the person Alessia thought should could trust has now betrayed her.

Luca's betrayal...

Unforgivable.

"How could you, Luca?" Alessia demanded, her voice trembling with anger and hurt.

Luca's expression twisted, his eyes cold.

"You never understood, Alessia. Our family's survival depends on adaptability. The Morani family offered us a chance to thrive."

Alessandro's eyes narrowed, his jaw clenched.

"Luca, you're no better than Francesca. You're a traitor."

Luca sneered, his lip curling.

"At least I'm not blinded by loyalty. The Bianchi family's archaic values will be their downfall."

Alessia's heart ached, her mind reeling.

Luca's betrayal...

Personal.

"Luca, you're going down," Alessandro vowed, his voice deadly.

Luca laughed, a cold, mirthless sound.

"You'll never take me alive. I have insurance."

Sophia interrupted, her voice firm.

"Alessandro, we have evidence. Luca's been working with the Morani family for months. We can tie him to several of their operations."

Alessandro's face darkened, his eyes flashing with anger.

"Enough. Luca, you're finished."

The scene shifted to the Bianchi estate, where Alessia's emotions raw.

Luca's betrayal...

Unforgivable.

Alessandro approached, his expression softening.

"Bella, we'll get through this. We'll take down Luca and the Morani family."

Alessia nodded, her eyes welling up.

Together, they would overcome.

But the question remained...

Who else was involved?

As they strategized, Alessia's phone buzzed.

A text from an unknown number:

"Look closer at Sophia. She's not what she seems."

Alessia's heart skipped a beat.

Could Sophia be involved?

Alessia's mind whirled, her instincts screaming warning.

The traitor...

Closer than she thought.
