Chapter 18 - the eternal promise
Six months after the gang war, the Boston underworld had returned to peace under Massimo's absolute control. He gradually shifted his business operations toward legitimate sectors, minimizing bloody violence as much as possible.
Tessa continued to stand by his side, not just as a physical therapist, but as a soulmate and life partner. Her intelligence, resilience, and compassion had brought a breath of fresh air into the gloomy estate.
On a brilliantly starlit evening, Massimo brought Tessa to the rooftop of Boston's tallest tower, offering a panoramic view of the entire city sparkling with lights. The night breeze blew gently, carrying an absolutely perfect romance.
Massimo no longer needed to use his cane. He walked firmly, holding Tessa's hand tightly. He dropped to one knee, pulling an exquisitely designed diamond ring from his pocket, blazing brilliantly under the night lights.
"You brought me back from the dead, taught me how to stand firm not just on my two feet, but also in my soul," Massimo said, his voice deep, warm, and full of emotion. "Be my wife, Tessa? Become the queen of this empire."
