Nikolai Vetrov ~•~ “My grandfather called me today,” I said to Rafael after Serena had gone up for a nap. He paused, then turned to me slowly, looking away from the TV. “What’d he say?” “Asked me if my vacation wasn’t over.” Rafael arched an eyebrow. “He wants me to return to work.” “Do you want to return?” I nodded without hesitation. “But I have something to tell him that he might not like to hear.” Rafael stared at me. “I want to get rid of the divide in VM global holdings.” He blinked in surprise. “You want to suggest making us run as one company again? Will your grandfather ever allow that?” I shrugged. I didn’t know what his reaction would be, but I knew he wouldn’t want to hear it. The feud between our families had been going on for decades. I doubted just one word from me
