Chapter 87: Chapter Eighty-Six: Keep your distance

"Are you doubting my sincerity, Mr. Alessandro?" 

Kaiden's question filled the room with a heavy silence for a few moments before Domenic finally decided to answer.

"I'm not doubting your promise of never hurting Emilia. But that does not mean you and your family are not on the top of the list of our suspicion."

A smile made its way to Kaiden's lips as he swirled the wine in his glass as he asked, "So you are suspecting that I'm trying to use your sister to get a hold over you?"

Domenic was again silent for a few seconds as he sipped his wine, taking in the rich taste of years-old treasure.

"I have known you for quite some time. I know you better than most of your friends and enemies. Even though I believe that you will never stoop to a level of using Emily as a chess piece in your game, the recent incidents are putting you under the spotlight." 

Domenic told him as he continued to enjoy his wine.
