chapter 23

A couple of days later, my beloved and I went to the presentation of my new project.

Everything went as usual, except that very often people crossed paths in the hall with strange glances, and the opening is about to begin.

I gently kiss my beloved's hand and go straight to the mini stage for such evenings.

When I began my solemn speech, I looked only at her..

One minute, two minutes.. And the lights went out in the hall, the guests began to whisper, and the next moment there was the sound of a gunshot.

Damn, I automatically ran towards Nastya and took her hand.

Are you okay?

Yes, and you?

Yes, let's get out of here quickly.

But the next moment, some unknown guy came up to us and came closer to us, I automatically stood in front of Nastya to cover her with me, I felt her hand in my hand and she was obviously afraid.

Leon, Leon, what a meeting.

I recognized him by his voice, the fatherly man who had always been his right-hand man.

But nah.. Is he here?

What do you want, Andrew?

What do I want? That's a good question, boy

But can you do it, Leon Russo?

I always dreamed of taking your father's place, he always saw me as nothing more than an errand boy, but when I found out that you killed your own father, it was a shock, but not for me.

I just want your business, I've managed to get back on my feet during this time, and as you can see, it's really good.

I really hope that my words are clear to you, Russo , I really don't want to hurt your sweet girlfriend.

Am I right, Anastasia?

I stood there in silence and listened to the whole stupid conversation, how boring it was .

During the time that this Andrew was chatting, I noticed how Leon's people imperceptibly turned on the emergency power and disappeared so that they would not be visible but in a state of readiness.

I looked down at Leon's pants, wow, his ass is awesome, but don't talk about that now.

I abruptly took the gun, pulled the trigger and shot at this Andrew, everyone started shooting at each other and Leon knocked me to the floor and pulled me to safety.

It was very brave, my people will do everything.

The most important thing now is to get out of here.
