CHAPTER Ninety
Buddy and Amore had just watched the press conference by Jeffery’s manager and Buddy was particularly enraged with the whole thing.
“These are just mere political propaganda. It is obvious that Tina did her home work on the man before he came out spilling all those trash” Amore said, dismissing everything the manager had said.
“You know, sometimes I want to ask myself, could it be that you are just helping me because of your selfish desire?” Amore was taken aback by this statement. He never imagined that a time would come where his own friend would question his loyalty.
“What are you talking about?”
“I am talking about the fact that, you are only trying to get me to power because you want to use me to do so many things” Amore stared at his friend once more to see the seriousness in his face.
“Wait, you are not joking? You are being serious?” Amore asked in disbelief.
“Ofcourse I am serious. Infact, you know what? I don’t think. I need your help anymore” Amore gasped.Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“You cannot say that? I am certain you are just kidding” But Buddy shook his head, indicating no as an answer.
“I was there for you, when you came to New York. I have done so many stuffs do you and now this is how you pay ms back? By sending me away?” Amore asked in disbelief.
“I cannot deny the fact that you have really helped me, but then I need you to understand that your helps mean nothing to me” Amore was again shocked by this statement.
“How can you possibly ooze such stupidity out of your mouth” Amore asked.
“Don’t dare insult me” Buddy warned.
“No, I will insult you in any way I like. You are clearly out of your mind for thinking for a second that I could possibly betray you. If you don’t remember, let me take you down the memory lane; you were the one that had the ambition of coming out for presidency, I never suggested nor advised you to go for it. I agreed to help you because I needed a favour from you. This my friend is different from pushing you to the president seat because of selfish desires. I am highly disappointed Buddy and if you want me to leave, fine it’s no problem. Just so you know, the chance of winning this election without me, is slim. You may have the president and the godfather’s back, but it is still not enough” After Amore had finished his long talk, he stood up to his feet and head out the house, not looking back again.

Giovanni had arrived Mexico; he was here for one solid purpose and it remained simple, and that is to get his crown back.
Bursting through the hall way and about opening the room to the round table, he was stopped by the security men.
“Are you dogs out of your mind” He asked, staring at the two men who were obstacle to his entrance.
It was moments like this he missed Lucifer; he was certain Lucifer would have beaten them handsdown without having to take a sweat.
“A non Elijah is not allowed into the meeting” This enraged Giovanni and he slapped the two men simultaneously.
“You are both retards and i say it again, you are not mentally stable. How dare you say the leader of the Elite is not a member of the table?” He pushed past them into the room.
All eyes were on him when he entered, he didn’t care about the stare they all have him. He had one person on his mind to talk to and that was Luke.
“Welcome, you may have your sit” Luke said, making gesture to one of the random seat at the table. Giovanni was glad that his uncle was not in the meeting and he knew his uncle would not want to grace such stupid occasions like the one he was witnessing.
“Luke, I appreciate the fact that you have been keeping my seat warm for me, you may now go back to your sit”
“Marco Giovanni, if you one more time make reference to our leader in such manner again” Millie pointed hands to him.
“Ah! Even Millennium has grown wings to even talk back at me” Giovanni commented. “Is this what my table has turned to?”
“This is no longer your sit Giovanni” Luke stated, standing up to confront him. Giovanni was taken aback by the Young’s lad audacity.
“You really have some nerves talking back at me boy. I have been a subject of respect from your father and I would not stand you insulting me” Giovanni was enraged by all of them seated at the table.
“We will ignore the fact that you think you are still leader at this table. However, we do hope that you are here to give me the ring, bowing down to pay tribute to me” The sudden laughter from Giovanni got everyone confused.
“Not even my father would listen to ants when they speak” Luke clapped his hands and all his escort entered the room, pointing the guns at Giovanni.
“So this is what has given you so much power? The fact that you feel these men have decided to turn against me?” Giovanni asked making ridicule of the guns pointed at him.
“Like i said Giovanni, it’s either you hand over the ring or you die” Luke threatened.
“Well here is my counter offer; step down right now or you will face some much tribulations from me that you will regret ever thinking of ascending the seat” Luke knew how adamant Giovanni was and he could easily kill him at the moment, he needed to see how Giovanni bowed down to him.
“And let me inform you that as a true member of this table, I am no promoter of war but of peace and so, I would leave right now. But just so you know, I would be back” Luke clapped his hands hoping that the escort would shoot him. He was surprised to see none of them even made an attempt to shoot Giovanni, while he was walking away.
When Giovanni got to the door, he turned around and said “These men still answer to me and just so you know, there is nothing you can do that they would listen to you, if I disapprove of it” He finished off and jolted the door closed.

Bianca had been confined to Amore’s house for days and he had doubled the number of guards that were to keep watch over her. The one thing that brought her satisfaction aside her children ofcourse was Netflix and her phone.
She was glad that she had access to her phone. Bianca presumed that Amore hadn’t taken notice of the fact that she was with her phone and she could make phone calls.
Today, she decided to FaceTime Giovanni and the talk to him. When he picked, she was glad to see his face once more.
“You look beautiful than ever my love” Giovanni admitted. For the first time in days, Bianca was blushing at a genuine compliment made to her.
“How are you doing”
“I am bored. He happened to have doubled the number of guards to watch over me” Bianca stated.
“Such a douchebag” Bianca couldn’t agree less.
“Listen babe, no matter what happens, I need you to stay safe for us and I need you to understand everyday that I am here for you. I swear to get you aware from him with Alonso ofcourse” Bianca felt her heart swell to his words, she had to admit that Giovanni was the man meant for her.
“I love you Giovanni”
“I love you more” Giovanni stated before hanging up.
After few minutes of hanging up, the door opened, revealing Amore who had a suspicious look on his face.
“Who were you talking to?” Amore asked.
“No one” Mere seeing him, Bianca thought of the possible ways to hurt him but knew that he was more stronger than her.
“I could swear that you were talking to someone, so tell me who was it?” Amore voice was begining to go high.
“I just told you, I was not referring to anyone!” Bianca heaved and exaspirated sigh.
Amore snatched the phone away from her to check who she had made the call to and saw it was none other than Giovanni.
“Ah! I see that you have been talking to him. Well, this phone remains with me till death do us apart” He stated with a smirk and left the room
