Taking away the one good thing he'd ever really had, a stability and friendship the likes of which he's unlikely to ever see again. Perhaps that hadn't been Jack's intention, but he did steal something from him, and it's a crime he is neither likely to forget nor forgive.
But, being what he is, his hands are tied. There's nothing he can do, bound by loyalty and restrictions like tangled barbed wire.
Still, when Rhys says that, Giovanni flashes him a serrated smile-- a small slip in his professional demeanour, but Rhys has invited it, hasn't he?]
