He wiped his mouth with a cloth napkin, rising from the breakfast table with purpose. Sofia followed suit, stepping out of the room alongside him, her gaze scanning their surroundings.

To her surprise, Mark stood by the door, waiting patiently.

A polite smile formed on his face as their eyes met, and he greeted her, "Good morning, Mrs. Morelli."

Sofia couldn't help but feel a tinge of novelty as she adjusted to being addressed by her new title.

Returning the greeting, Sofia replied, "Good morning, Mr. Mark," her voice tinged with warmth.

However, Mark quickly interjected, insisting she should call him by his first name, "Maam, please call me Mark."

Sofia nodded, appreciating his friendly gesture.

As the pleasantries continued, Mark turned to address Leonardo respectfully.

"Good morning, boss," he greeted, acknowledging Leonardo's presence.

"Morning, Mark. We're going to the shopping mall. Tell the driver to get the car ready," Leonardo commanded, his tone carrying an air of authority.

Sofia observed the dynamic between Leonardo and Mark, realizing the extent of his influence and power.
