Fabio raised his head immediately and stood on his feet. He walked closer to Mr Ivanov and went down on one knee.
"If you grant me permission, I'd be an honour to work for the Ivanov family," Fabio said. A smile appeared on Antonio's face as he patted Fabio's shoulder.
"Since my son will be returning soon, I'll leave him in your care till he's capable of becoming the head. Make sure he's well protected. I know you'll handle it"
"Yes sir!" He said, still on his knees.
"About your mother...."
"I'll see her when the time is right, sir. I... I can't face her after everything she had witnessed today" he pretentiously turned his head to the other side, as he softened his voice.
"I won't force you then. You may leave" he said.
Fabio nodded and walked away immediately. He stood by the door and turned to see the pleased look on Antonio's face. A smirk appeared on his face as he dragged his lips between his teeth.
"Bingo!" He mumbled and left the lobby, slamming the door hard.
