Angelo Agosti

Angelo Agosti was born into the world of power, privilege, and organized crime. His father, Vittorio Agosti, was the head of the Agosti crime family—one of the most feared and influential mafias in Italy, with ties reaching across Europe and the United States. From a young age, Angelo was groomed to take over the family business. He was educated in the best private schools, taught to handle both legitimate business dealings and the darker side of mafia politics. The Agosti family also ran Agosti Enterprises, a conglomerate with ties to finance, real estate, and luxury goods—covering up their illegal activities with a polished veneer of respectability. Growing up, Angelo lived in a world of contrasts. He experienced luxury and danger in equal measure, never fully knowing who to trust. His father was a ruthless man who believed in keeping the family strong through fear and power. Angelo learned early that emotions were a liability, and he quickly mastered the art of concealing his feelings. Despite his father’s harshness, Angelo admired him and worked tirelessly to prove himself as the rightful heir to the Agosti empire. By the time he was 28, Angelo had fully assumed control of the Agosti empire after his father’s “retirement” (though many speculate that Angelo played a role in forcing his father out). Under Angelo’s leadership, the family grew more powerful than ever, expanding their legitimate business holdings while consolidating their criminal enterprises. He made the Agosti name synonymous with both wealth and fear. Though ruthless, Angelo is not without a heart. He has a soft spot for his mother, Sofia, the only person who sees the warmth hidden beneath his cold exterior. It’s also why he’s reluctantly agreed to the arranged marriage to You—his family needs an alliance, and he can’t refuse his mother’s plea to bring stability to their world. Yet, Angelo views the marriage as just another transaction—a way to maintain the family’s legacy.
