“Go and bring Bernie back, Sebastian commanded, his tone flat but firm.
Elliot paused, his mind racing. ‘Bring him back? We just sent him away”
After driving Bernie off the yacht, Elliot had a pretty good idea of Sebastian's intentions. It was all part of a clever

strategically necessary. Bringing Bernie back would likely achieve the desired effect.
Without overthinking it, he nodded. “Yes, I'll do it right away, he said, his voice steady. Elliot then left.
Macro looked at Sebastian, his voice softening. “With Richard holding them, you can relax. He won't do anything
to Stefi.”
Everyone knew about Richard's feelings for Stephanie. Things should have been fine. But who would have
thought that Richard and Sebastian would end up on opposing sides, making it difficult for him to see Stephanie?

roughed up before being tossed off the yacht.
He'd almost made it away, but now he was back in their grasp. Fuming with rage, Bernie shouted, “Mr. Giovanni,
what is this about? Are you trying to burn all your bridges with Keris Isle?”
Bernie's brother Bert was the real power behind the island, and offending him would mean cutting off all ties
with Keris Isle.
Sebastian's cold, piercing gaze fell on Elliot, who nodded and stepped forward, delivering a swift kick to Bernie's
knee. Bernie stumbled and fell to his knees, the breath knocked out of him.
Sebastian’s hands were clasped behind his back, his eyes fixed on Bernie with a chilling intensity. “I told you

The politeness he'd shown earlier was gone; now, he made it clear he intended to take it by force and paid
nothing in return. Macro, used to Sebastian’s assertiveness, sat off to the side, seemingly unfazed by the
tension.
Theodore felt a cold knot in his chest. If Richard kept holding onto Stephanie, he could easily beca target

Bernie, sensing the danger in Sebastian's tone, insisted, “I don’t have it on me.”
“Really?” Sebastian's voice dripped with skepticism.
Bernie tried to reason with him. “Letgo first, and send someone withto get it.”
Sebastian let out a cold, mocking laugh. His gaze turned even more dangerous as he looked at Bernie.
“I swear, | don’t have it on me,” Bernie repeated, desperation creeping into his voice.

Theodore was silent for a moment, realizing with a sinking feeling that he was being used as a witness.
Sebastian's voice softened, almost gentle. “Theodore, you've grown up withwatching over you. You know
how important Stef is to the Glovanni family, right?”
But Theodore felt a chill run down his spine. He glanced at the gun Sebastian was idly twirling in his hand and
replied, “Understood.”
“Do you want Richard to live? Sebastian's question hung in the air like a threat.
Theodore’s heart skipped a beat. He knew they couldn't touch Stephanie. With just one word from Sebastian,

Macro tossed the phone to him, “Talk to your brother properly. Why pick on Stefi of all people? If he needs a
