Chapter 590: Eve of the Coppa Italia Finals

For Zachary, time was passing really quickly as he prepared for the Coppa Italia finals against Lazio with his teammates. He was in a Black Mamba state of mind as he went through the team tactical drills on Monday. Then, Tuesday arrived, and he attended the pre-match tactical meeting at around three in the afternoon before saying his goodbyes to those at the training ground and heading home to rest for the day.

Lorenzo Riccardo, his bodyguard/driver, drove him back to his mansion, where he spent the evening hours napping. Training had exhausted him considerably that day, so he slept deeply until his phone's ringtone woke him up.

He opened his eyes groggily and extended his arm to pick up the annoying communication device from his bedside table. On glancing at the screen, he noticed that it was Emily, his agent calling. He turned and made himself comfortable in bed before pressing the accept button and holding the phone against his ear.
