Chapter 314: The Unexpected Threat

"Don't do that, Sir Vicenzo. You must speak what's on your mind. That's an order," Rosina stated softly with a wide grin. She leaned forward and placed her hand on her chin.

"I want to hear more, Sir Vicenzo," Felissa said sternly before sitting back in her chair.
