VINCENZO'S POV

I'm getting really pissed right now, i can't find an important documents and flash drive needed for a deal. This is a big project Lazio and i are working on, it is worth a lot. We can't lose it.

"Lazio it isn't here"

"I can't find it too" Lazio said going through some papers from the stack of scattered papers on the floor.

"I'm sure i placed it in this fucking safe"

"Well it's obliviously not there, you told me it was going to be safe here." This is one of the rare occasions where Lazio isn't joking or smiling.

"Who else has access to this safe?"

"It's just me.... And Tesoro" i said the last part barely audible.

"Call your girlfriend" he said seriously.

Tesoro left some time ago, i told her i was going to stay over a bit late with Lazio, to finalize some deal.

"She did not take it" i glared at him.

"She is the only other person who has access to the fucking safe, we don't have enough time for this shit. The presentation is tomorrow"

It's taking a lot of strength not to punch him in the face.

"Don't accuse her" i pointed my finger at him sternly.

"Look I'm not accusing her, just call and ask her if she saw it. It might be here somewhere and we are just running around like headless chickens." He sighed.

I let out a huge breath, trailing my fingers through my hair, i can't remember taking off the hair band and letting my hair loose.

I dialled her number, it rang and ended, she didn't pick up. I called again, after few rings she answered.

"Hey" merda i think i woke her up from sleep.

{𝘚𝘩𝘪𝘵}

"Hey did i wake you?"

"Yeah it's fine, what's up? Are you okay?" Even half asleep, she is always concerned about me.

"Si, I'm sorry for waking you"

"It's fine baby"

"I called to ask something, did you move any black envelope and a drive from the safe?"

"The safe in your office?"

"Yeah, did you?"

"No, i saw it yesterday so it should be there,"

"It's not in the safe, it is missing"

"What? How? That's not possible. You and i are the only ones with the password, right?" She sounded fully awake now.

"Right?" She asked again.

"Yes"

"Then....."

"Winnie this isn't the right time for questions, those documents are important so we have to find them before it gets to the wrong hands. Where is it?" Lazio interrupted her harshly, i gave him a cold glare.

"Lazio i don't know where it is, i saw it there yesterday" she was getting worried.

"It's okay go back to sleep" i ended the call before she could say anything else.

"You're accusing her of stealing the documents" i yelled at Lazio.

"I didn't" he was calm.

My phone ringing interrupted whatever he was gonna say next. It was Hades calling.

"Hades"

"I got the information you asked for"

"Okay bring it to the office now"

"Are you sure about that? It's not looking good" he asked

"Yes bring it now"

"I'm on my way"

"Hades is coming? This late?" Lazio was clearly confused.

"Si"

WINNIE'S POV

I'm on my way to work, i can't stop thinking about the call i got from Enzo. He even ended the without hearing my response.

I know the missing file is very important to him, that's why he is stressed. So I'm gonna go into the office and search the whole place for the file until i find it.

"Morning Win" i heard from the behind me in the reception hall.

"Morning Lu" i greeted her. We walked towards the elevator.

"Good morning Ladies" Dante joined us.

"Morning Dante" we both said at the same time.

"And why are you all smiles this early morning?" I asked him

"What? So i can't smile in the morning anymore?"

"Man stop joking, we all know you're not a morning person" i nodded in agreement to what Luna said. We all entered the elevator.

"Maria is the only one that can make you this happy in the morning" i chuckled.

"Oooh spill the tea" Luna tugged at his sleeve, smirking.

"Ok ok, we found out the gender" he grinned.

"Aww that's lovely"

"What's the gender?" Luna was jumping on her toe like a kid.

"It's a girl" he smiled broadly.

"I'm gonna spoil her rotten" i grinned excited

"I'm gonna teach her to punch" Luna smiled proudly.

"You're both too much" Dante shook his head. The elevator dinged signalling their stop.

"See you at lunch boo" Lu said and i nodded.

"Have a nice day" dante called out to me.

"You too" they both left to their offices.

Getting to Enzo's office i saw Lazio, Enzo and Hades. They stopped their conversion the moment i stepped into the office.

"Good morning gentlemen" i smiled at them.

"Where is it Winnie?" Hades asked me

"What?" They were both glaring daggers at me, Enzo looked at me emotion less.

"The file, where is it?"

"Lazio i told you already that i don't know a thing about this"

"Well evidence says otherwise" Hades said.

"Is this some kind of joke?" I tilted my head to the side staring at him.

"Is that why you came here? You became my girlfriend so you could steal from me? Did you give it to them?"

Enzo looked me in the eyes with so much anger. He has never express such emotions to me.

"Enzo listen...."

"You can do that explaining after you hand over those files or tell us who you gave it to" i shook my head frantically.

"Baby believe me i didn't take anything"

"We lost the deal Winnie, how could you?" He stared into my eyes with so much betrayal.

"I should've been more careful, you were a fucking stranger and i trusted you. I fell for your pretense"

I thought i have been hurt, i thought i have felt heartbreak, but none can compare to how am feeling now. I felt like my heart was breaking into pieces.

I felt tear escaping my eyes while i stood there paralyzed by his words.

"Bro calm down" Lazio said to him.

"Look Win...."

"Get out. Get your shit and leave me premises this minute. We are done. You're fired" Enzo interrupted Lazio.

I couldn't hold back the sob that left my lips. I left my broke heart on the floor of Enzo's office and ran out the building.

I entered my car and drove off, i sobbed loudly while driving, i could barely see the road clearly. The memory of the office incident kept flashing through my mind.

I stopped the car by the road side and cried my heartout. It felt like hours later, i couldn't cry anymore. I drove home, took a shower and went to bed with empty stomach, i didn't have tge appetite to eat.
