THE PAST FEW DAYS, Joseph noticed the unusual behavior of his wife. Pagkatapos kasi nitong malaman ang tungkol sa magulang at kapatid nito, naging tahimik na ito. At napansin niya na laging itong nakatitig sa singsing at sa ibinigay niya ritong silver cuff bracelet. Parang lagi rin itong may iniisip na malalim.
“How about the wealth of Fontanilla? Who was in charge of it?” Joseph asked Monti while he was staring at his wife. Iris was in the pavilion and talking with Jacqueline. Kapag kausap lamang nito si Jacqueline saka ito magsasalita at mawawala sa malalim na pag-iisip. Fortunately, his sister is here or else Iris will keep quiet and will be in deep thought every day.
Monti cleared his throat before answering, “The Old Master, Don.”
“My father?” Maverick was stunned.
Monti nodded.
