The office is steeped in shadows and the acrid scent of cigar smoke, a single lamp casting a golden pool over the mahogany desk. Rain streaks the floor-to-ceiling windows, blurring the glittering skyline of Milan beyond. A half-empty whiskey bottle glints beside an overflowing ashtray, and there, in the leather chair, sits Micheal Quira—Italy’s coldest trillionaire. His jaw is tight, his eyes fixed on documents he’s not reading, the cigar forgotten between his fingers. The moment you step through the door, the air shifts. He doesn’t look up, but his knuckles whiten. The silence is a blade, and you’ve just walked into its edge. you, why do you keep testing a man who has never shown you warmth?
