Chapter 362

Vincenzo

I straightened my clothes with my hands one last time as Bruno entered the room, searching for even the slightest hint of dust.

“You look…….presentable, you’ve cleaned this place, you’re on time.” He nodded approvingly. “Respect and order. These are the qualities you’ll need if you’re going to lead the Garcias and the Morales’ so I’m impressed.”

Leading the Garcias and the Morales’ was enough news to give me a headache. It was not a surprise, it was bound to happen someday, but I had not expected it to be this quick.

“The wedding preparations are going well, and Oscar and Aria have asked me to go through a few things with you.” Bruno pulled out a long list, nearly reaching the floor. “And where’s that big brother of yours?”

“Still packing, I suppose,” I said, sighing. “I guess he has a lot of stuff.”

“Meh.” Bruno scrunched his nose. “I appreciate him stepping up, but he hasn’t done much for the Garcias anyway.” He patted my back. “You are the real deal, and you will bring greatness to this family!”

Yes, under his orders.

“So this list of yours.” I wondered. “Do I have a say in this or-

“No, absolutely not.” Bruno cut me off as soon as I started. The Morales are a powerful family, and you’re still at the bottom of the rank carrying the Garcia name-so no.” He made it clear. “All you need to do is nod and sign.”

“Sign what?”

Uncle raised his finger. “These!” He pulled a big stash of papers from his map. “Don’t worry. I already went through it with my lawyer.”

“Just give me a pen, and I’ll sign it.” I waved him off. I was so over it that I didn’t even care at this point. They could’ve asked me to cut off my balls, and I would’ve actually done it.

After getting settled, we sat at the table to read the Morales’ list of terror.

Stunned, I let my eyes wander over the most shameless demands I had ever read in my life, and it wasn’t even half of it. It was really smart of them to try and get their hands on our funds-but what about their funds?

“Uncle, just give me that pen and let me sign.” I stuck out my hand. “I might as well sell my soul to the devil.”

“Vince, I told you I looked it over with my lawyer, and he’s the best.” Uncle had a confident look in his eyes. “There’s a clause, so you don’t have to worry.”

If Bruno claimed there was nothing to worry about, it truly meant there was nothing to worry about.
