*Two Months Later*
*Cat*
It was amazing how quickly things changed… and how some things stayed the same. Just like he had promised, Elio and I started working together as he included me in more of the processes the family did during the day.
Understanding the reach that the Valentino family had was shocking. They weren’t rich for no good reason, and they weren’t one of the biggest crime families in the world just because of their name.
Leo and Franky were kind enough to help me settle in when Elio wasn’t there. While I was still uncomfortable directing the men without Elio there, they listened to me anyway. I was surprised by how friendly they were and how open they were to my suggestions, and willing to hear me out despite my lack of experience.
