Chapter 13 - The Echo of Justice
While Victoria and Dante built a life of boundless love and peace, Preston's life came to its inevitable, bitter conclusion.
Having lost his fortune, his family, and his social standing, Preston spent two years hiding in low-end hotels across South America, working menial labor jobs to pay off his debts to local loan sharks.
One rainy afternoon, while working as a dishwasher at a waterfront tavern, Preston picked up a discarded copy of an international business magazine.
On the front cover was a striking photograph of Dante and Victoria Viti standing at a corporate gala, looking powerful, happy, and deeply in love. The headline read: “Viti Global & Sterling Maritime Merge to Create Multi-Billion-Dollar Humanitarian Trust.”
Below the main photo was a small image of little Maya, smiling brightly in a white dress, holding Dante's hand.
