Chapter 8 - The Stolen Heir
Vincent stared at the rival boss in complete confusion.
He demanded to know why Salvatore would risk a war over a maid's child.
Salvatore smiled a cold, humorless smile that sent chills down Vincent's spine.
He explained that Camille was not just a simple housekeeper from Louisiana.
Five years ago, Camille had been married to Salvatore's eldest son.
She had faked her own death to escape the mafia life and hide her unborn baby.
Adeline was the only legitimate heir to the Salvatore crime syndicate.
Marcus crawled up the basement stairs, leaving bloody handprints on the marble.
He looked at Salvatore and demanded his promised payment for finding the child.
Salvatore looked down at the traitorous security chief with absolute disgust.
He told Marcus that a man who betrays his own boss can never be trusted.
Salvatore pulled a golden revolver from his coat pocket without hesitation.
He shot Marcus squarely in the chest, ending the traitor's life instantly.
Vincent used the distraction to dive behind a heavy marble pillar.
He realized Camille had lied to him every single day she worked in his house.
But he also knew he could never let Salvatore take that innocent little girl.
Salvatore ordered his men to burn the mansion to the ground and find the child.
