Chapter 149

• CHAPTER 149: THE TRAP AND THE PUNISHMENT
• Lena leans forward, her voice soft but sure, the glint in her eyes sharp enough to cut through the tension thickening the room. “News just came in that Antonio Russo is heading back to the country club. He’s got a carrier with him—loaded with valuables. Things I’m sure mean a lot to him.” Her gaze sweeps across the table, daring anyone to dismiss her. “So instead of plotting some slow, tired sneak attack, why not give him payback? Show him you’re not resting. Show him you’re watching every move, ready to fight back with every ounce of your will and every drop of your power. Set a trap for his carrier. Hit him where it hurts. That alone will send the message he deserves.”
• The room stills. Even the air seems to pause. Luca’s dark brows lift, his expression shifting as the weight of her suggestion settles. He hadn’t expected something so sharp, so strategic, from her lips. Slowly, he nods, his eyes never leaving her.
