Chapter 228 : Moving Day

James.

The joy of marriage and taking care of the kids in general made my heart lighter, but I also needed to focus on the darker things. At the moment, I was looking over a report for the family business and frowning very deeply.

“I know you have been taking care of most things, Giovani, while I’ve taken on the family man role. But we’re still in danger,” I said, letting out a sigh. At the moment, we were meeting not at a casual restaurant, but in a private room in my compound.

Two cups of coffee sat on the mahogany table in front of us, along with scones on small plates we nibbled on as we spoke. There were organized papers next to both of us, as well, though most of what we spoke of, we typed on a laptop.

My cousin gave me a nod, letting out a soft sigh and reaching up to pinch the bridge of his nose. He said, “Times have been rather tough, James. With a lot of pressure from the fuzz, the value of bribes has only gone up. A pain in the rear, really.”
