Melissa, Ric's wife cried to her husband.Melissa's desperate plea tugged at Ric's heartstrings. Ric's deep love for Melissa fueled his determination to bring peace to her distressed heart. Despite enduring mistreatment as a live-in son-in-law, his commitment to their relationship remained unwavering, he had always loved her whole heartedly. "Please Ric, it's just going to be a month and you'll be granted the opportunity for bail and Dad will get you out of there, please!" Melissa sobbed even harder as she asked the impossible from Ric."In that month, Dad's campaign would be at its peak, if they take him he'd never become Mayor with the record of an Ex convict, please."

When Mr. Lombardi requested for Ric, the cashier immediately motioned for Ric to come to the counter while she returned to the back of the counter. However, when Mr. Lombardi saw Ric he had doubts in his mind but he was a smart man.Mr. Lombardi masked his doubts and greeted Ric in a polite manner. "Good afternoon Sir, I am Lombardi Leones."Ric was a bit embarrassed but he managed to introduce himself "Ric Mariano" Mr. Lombardi was careful to not offend Ric because the Mariano last name was not very popular in Avrilla city and he suspected that Ric may be from a very rich and wealthy family."Mr. Mariano, please how much would you like to withdraw?" The cashier asked roughly, since the card wasn't fake, she was going to humiliate Ric and prove that the card didn't really belong to Ric. "Please call me Ric, I would like to withdraw thirty thousand dollars." Ric immediately added."But the minimum withdrawal with this card is hundred thousand dollars at once" The cashier asked, her s

Ordinarily Rose would have left out the detail of the poor man who tried to feel rich but she felt like if she told Mr. Rogers about it then he would punish the man further and commend her for handling the situation. This would also give her admiration and confidence from the guests that filled the lobby at this time.However, when Ric was brought before Johnson, he was bleeding from his nose and mouth and he was barely able to stand from all the beating. Mr. Johnson was shocked to see who the man Rose was referring to was. Ric had a striking resemblance with his father and Johnson immediately recognized him.Johnson Rogers had diligently served Lord Maximilanno during his stay in Westmoreland county that when Johnson relocated to Avrilla city, Lord Maximilanno had put him in charge of most of his property in the city. That was how Johnson became a very Rich and influential man in Avrilla city."Excuse me Sir, Are you Mr. Ric Maximilanno?" Johnson asked Ric.Although Ric looked nothi

Ric was amazed, he did not think that Melissa hated him that much, nonetheless, he did not waste any time sulking as it was clear that she did not have any use for him anymore.Ric simply highlighted out of the car and sorted through his clothes and documents for relevant files he needed.“Excuse me. I have others to pick up and drop and you are wasting my time." The impatient driver queried Ric when he was left waiting and watching Ric bask in his demise.The driver immediately thought that Ric was a kick out that would not have the money to pay for the fare and yet Ric accrued more bills by keeping the driver waiting.“It is fine. I will just hire you for the entire day then. How much would that cost?" Ric had no interest in searching for a ride to take his belongings back to the resort so he decided to hire the driver for the whole day to carry him along.“Do you think you can afford to pay to hire me for the entire day?" The driver sized Ric and judged him by his appearance.All t

When Mr. Lombardi hit Lucio across the cheek, a lot of guests were shocked.
