PORCHAY'S POV

I entered Cau's room to check on him. He was sleeping soundly, so I headed to my study/office in the mansion. My mind was still occupied with how Cau got injured, but P'Vegas wasn't around to explain.

Since arriving here, I haven't had much rest, so I decided to take a walk towards the training area. Training has become my pastime while staying in Italy. This country is known for its grand basements and tunnels, and this mansion happens to have its own underground training area.

I often come here to clear my mind. Who would've thought that this so-called "weakling" would be so eager to train so hard? I just want to prove everyone wrong. It's not obvious, but I am improving.

I was in the middle of cleaning my gun when Lorenzo entered.

"Mr. Porchay, I didn't expect you to stay here," he said.

"I don't have much choice, Lorenzo. Macau is here, and I don't want him getting suspicious about my activities. I'm not ready to face the truth yet," I replied.

"The truth will set you free, Mr. Porchay. But no rush, take your time. I'll handle everything. I'm staying here at the Theerapanyakul mansion so we can discuss what's happening anytime," he assured me.

I just nodded. He was right, the truth could free my mind, but the people around me would never let me be truly free.

"By the way, Mr. Porchay, I received this letter addressed to Capo," he said, handing me the letter before bowing and leaving.

I read the letter:

Hello Capo,

I know you are well aware of our presence in Italy. I had hoped to meet you, but Lorenzo said you wouldn't see anyone. We've been wondering who you are all these years. There's no trace of you anywhere. We suspect one of the kids living with the Theerapanyakuls might be you, but I doubt someone so weak-looking could be the Capo.

You've eliminated my moles, but why, Capo? Are you that threatened by us? Are you afraid I'll take all your assets? I know them well, as I was once part of The Circle.

Expect a small gift soon, delivered to one of the Theerapanyakul children. We're just getting started, Capo. We won't stop until we know who you are.

Sincerely,
CC

It was frustrating enough seeing Macau in such a critical state, but now these people were threatening me too? Macau is the youngest in the family, and since Hia and I are known as minor members and not blood-related to the Theerapanyakuls, Macau is their easiest target. They're aiming to get to me through him.

I grabbed my phone and called Sean.

"Yes, Khun khrup?" he asked as he entered the room.

I tossed him the letter. "I want you to gather everything on the Costalianos—their head, their location, everything. I don't care if they've covered their tracks. Use whatever means necessary to find them. I want every detail ASAP. Also, instruct the doctor to keep Macau on strict bed rest. He must not know what's happening. Make sure he stays in his room, and place guards both inside and outside. Understand?"

He nodded and rushed out.

I sighed and sank back into the couch. This never-ending bloodshed is exhausting. I don't care how many people protect you, but once my suspicions are confirmed, I won't hesitate. I'm sorry, but I'll forget you were ever a part of my life.

(A/N: How's life everyone? Not much sweetness for now, take a guess if you think the mystery person has been introduced from the previous chapters or a new one. I miss you all, Thank you for patiently waiting. Out of the story question, is anyone here also a fan of Kpop?)
