Chapter 389 Everyone Knows

Leonardo couldn't understand why his father had chosen today to visit his office and bring up Sofia and her mother. What was he trying to tell Leonardo? The atmosphere in the room grew tense as Alessandro, his father, began to speak. "I'm sure you're aware of Sofia's mother and her questionable character. You already know why Carlo grew disgusted with his wife," Alessandro said, his voice laden with implications.

"Dad, there's no need to remind me of that," Leonardo replied, growing increasingly frustrated. What was his father trying to prove? Leonardo didn't want to hear anything negative about Sofia.

After a prolonged silence, Alessandro spoke again. "Leonardo, remember that you're bound to this marriage contract for three years."

"I'm well aware of that, Dad," Leonardo responded in a bored tone. If only Alessandro knew what Leonardo truly had in mind for this three-year arrangement. He wanted it to last indefinitely.

"Then you understand that you don't have to pretend to be in love with Sofia," Alessandro stated, oblivious to Leonardo's genuine feelings for her.

"I'm not pretending anything, Dad," Leonardo asserted firmly. In truth, he had developed genuine affection for Sofia.

"Then why haven't you obtained her signature on the power of attorney for the Ricci Empire?" Alessandro raised his voice.

"How many times do we have to discuss this, Dad? I'm tired of it," Leonardo sighed in exasperation.

"No, Leonardo, I'm tired of you. You're behaving like a disobedient son. I taught you better. You're allowing your personal life to interfere with our business. Have you forgotten how we rose to this position where no one can touch us? It seems I will lose all my power and influence because of your emotional foolishness," Alessandro seethed through clenched teeth.

"If you can't convince her to sign the papers, I will do it myself. Just wait and watch," Alessandro added, pushing Leonardo to the point of losing control. He couldn't bear the idea of Sofia facing his father's wrath, so he looked straight into Alessandro's eyes, determination in his gaze.

"What do you want to prove, Dad? Why are you bringing up all these things? Can't you see that I am genuinely happy in this marriage? I've found happiness with Sofia. Do you want me to revert to the old Leonardo, the sad, heartless, and ruthless man who never knew how to smile or live for himself?" Leonardo expressed his disgust and frustration.
