Episode 7

Igor decided to answer that question, regardless of who it was, he was still at his house, and he hadn't done anything wrong, when he was about to answer, he heard hurried footsteps behind him.

The Patriarch of the Rossi family approached and greeted him on behalf of the entire family.

"Mr. Moretti, it is a pleasure to have you here, I didn't know you were coming, I apologize for not welcoming you."

Igor paid attention to that scene, his family almost bowed to that man, he looked back at him, wondering if he was really that powerful for his grandfather to act like a scared little dog, and it was getting interesting and he couldn't help himself, asking the most obvious question.

"Who are you?"

"Igor, this is Mr. Enrico Moretti," his son answered, afraid he might say something inappropriate.

"Don't be rude!" he was reprimanded by his grandfather.

Everyone in the country and in that city knew who Enrico Moretti was, the youngest patriarch of the Moretti family. Three years ago, he had successfully assumed that position after winning a cruel battle within his own family.

Enrico had an unprecedented reputation in the business world, which made numerous business groups afraid to offend him in any way, so who were the Rossi transportation group in the bread line?

Igor smiled slightly after being reprimanded, having been away from the country for so long, he didn't know the issues involving the wealthy families of that city, nor how intimidating that man could be, he was only certain that the place and time to meet were wrong, otherwise he would have been much friendlier with that powerful man.

"Mr. Enrico, you've come so early, is there something I can do for you?" he took a step forward, addressing the matter as the head of the family.

"There is something that needs to be resolved."

Enrico replied, and his voice was heavy like the sound of a drum, which could frighten anyone's heart. Jhone, on the other hand, stayed further back, he had a certain sparkle in his eyes.

"Grandfather, invite Mr. Moretti to come in, I'll prepare some tea and you can talk freely."

Jhone wanted to make himself noticed at that moment, not only showing his helpfulness, but also exposing the mediocre reception they were giving to that man, Roberto agreed and tried to intervene.

"Jhone is right, Mr. Moretti..."

"No need for all that trouble, I have no free time for tea."

Enrico declined, not even giving Jhone an extra glance, he was completely ignored for the first time, remaining petrified for a few seconds by the embarrassment. Igor saw that and leaned on the door with an amused expression, he was no longer in a hurry to leave, it was getting more and more entertaining.

Enrico could notice the amused look of the man in front of him and spoke again.

"I heard that the second son of the Rossi family has returned to the country, so I came personally to propose a marriage on behalf of the Moretti family."

As soon as those words were spoken, everyone in the Rossi family changed their expressions, it was a fact that there were several internal disputes in Enrico's family, initially, that agreement should have only involved the secondary members of the family, but at that moment it was the head of the Moretti family himself who was proposing marriage and everyone was confused.

Francesco became cautious, if that spread, he could get into more trouble, he was selfish, he just wanted a small relationship with that family to survive that crisis, he didn't want to involve someone powerful like Enrico.

"My grandson has just returned, this matter still needs to be considered by him."

"Consider? Who said I would consider anything?" he quickly responded with a smile on his face.

Igor realized that the power of his family did not match that of the man in front of him. He had come personally and his grandfather was afraid of causing trouble, so he decided to change the subject of forcing him to marry. But he was not a pawn to be manipulated by them, and since he had the chance to do something, he would.

"Since Mr. Moretti came personally to propose marriage, let me ask a question," he approached a little closer, leaning forward with a smile on his lips. "Did you come to propose marriage for the young man in your family? Or did you come to propose marriage for yourself? Depending on your answer, my opinion may also be different."

The way Igor said it made it seem like a blatant flirt from his side. Everyone fell into a deadly silence, where even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard. The Rossi family panicked, and even Enrico's subordinates were speechless at that moment. Either he had a lot of courage, or he was asking to be killed.
