Find Me In Your Labyrinth

Carmella didn’t respond

Victor pressed on, “You mentioned asking Yulia for money, then disappeared. Thought you could dodge me? I can easily reach out to the Macclain family, you know.”

Carmella responded sharply. “What are you after? If you annoy the Macclains and they decide I’m no longer welcome, how will you get your money then?” Pausing briefly, Victor smirked, “Stop pretending. The Macclains are clearly fond of you. They won’t throw you out.”

Carmella countered. “Being liked isn’t the same as being family. If I cross a line, they might push me away. Look at Estelle in your home isn’t she treated poorly by your own parents?”

With a sly grin, Victor said, “But that’s the thing you aren’t truly one of the Macclains. We, however, are blood. Hand over their money, and all will be settled.” Carmella rolled her eyes, “Give it to you? They’re even cautious about me, how am I supposed to give it to you?”

“I’m sure you’ll figure something out” Victor coaxed, “You need to get a handle on the Macclain’s money. I can help. We’re the real family here.”
