CHAPTER 174 Rains and pours

  Lorenzo's POV

  Today is Gio's funeral.

  It's been raining heavily nonstop since the early hours of the morning.

  It was still pouring as I got dressed and ready, and we all left for the funeral.

  Gio had wanted to be buried beside his father and mother.

  I intend to honor his wish.

  Mother and the others couldn't hold back their tears as the priest was saying prayers for Gio.

  **FLASHBACK*****

  "Are you being serious right now, Gio?"

  I asked with steepled fingers, gazing at him.

  "Mhmm," he hummed.

  "You're not joking?"

  "No… Why do you seem so surprised? I love the job,"

  he asked with a smile playing on his lips while swiveling around in his seat.

  "So you want to be the owner of a big farm and a barn. That's your utmost wish and heart's desire?"

  "Yes, it's cool, right? Growing fruits and vegetables and rearing animals. I get to produce food; without my work, people won't eat, don't forget that."
