Mafia Wars: The Uprising Billionaire 21 Business Crossfires
''45 per cent shares with 3.5 per cent equity from the space business, at 25 per cent increase in the stock exchange rate, open for a single investor.'' Enrico's eyes moved across the room, meeting different gazes.Hearing this made others frown, Enrico had pointed out that he would only be selling his shares to one investor, meaning that the person with the highest bid, and most favourable terms would get the investment. All of them appeared calm, sipping the contents from their wine cups, their eyes observing the countenance and body language of others.Jasmine appeared to be the most restless, owing to the fact that she couldn't compare with these innate tycoons. However, Antonio was rather surprised by her shrewdness.'Trying to look stupid in front of others to gain the most benefits? Tsk, not as foolish as I thought.' Antonio laughed inwardly.Among everyone present here, he knew Jasmine the best. Even though she stabbed him from the back when he least expected it, they had bee
Mafia Wars: The Uprising Billionaire 22 Standing His Ground
''50% of the shares, for 62 billion dollars, and 8% equity from the space investment… likewise, a tacit full protection, and corporation without meddling with your personal affairs.'' Antonio's words cut through everyone's mind like a hot blade.Lily couldn't help but shudder, hearing his bold declaration. She subtly glanced at him, wondering what had changed in the young man she used to know.Offering full protection, right when Caleb had just made his standing clear, wasn't a simple situation.'Did he just shut Caleb back?' Lukas's heart stirred.The others in the hall paused whatever they were doing, some still having their wine cups hanging in their hands, as they all shifted their attention to Antonio, each eye bearing mixed emotions.''Full protection?'' Enrico questioned, his eyes narrowing in doubt.Even though Antonio had gone for a higher percentage of shares and equity, the offers in return were just too alluring, so attractive that the businessman in Enrico couldn't help b
Mafia Wars: The Uprising Billionaire 23 Endrico's Tight Situation
''Aren't you afraid of retaliation?'' Enrico asked, his eyes knitting with worry.''I mean… you just got back from-''''Prison? Yes, and thanks for reminding me about that.'' Antonio cut him off.''I didn't mean it that way,'' Enrico sucked his lips.It had been two hours since the end of the dinner, as it was cancelled halfway through. No one had the mood to dine or bring up further deals after the momentary face off by Antonio and Caleb.Hence, they all scattered after a few exchanges of pleasantries, leaving the private estate in a dead silence.Afterwards, Antonio headed for a high-class restaurant in his gang's territory, having the place just for himself for tonight's meeting.Snipers and gunmen stood at strategic places, and even while he drove to the private estate, he had protection from snipers who could shoot a couple of kilometres away.Enrico didn't immediately follow him. He went to his mansion first, and from there, he used the subway in the slum to head to the address
Mafia Wars: The Uprising Billionaire 24 The Situation In Middle East
''Since when did you notice?'' Gaspar laughed, extricating himself from the dark passage in the restaurant.''Since you started railing me from the private estate.'' Antonio bit the sizzling pork meat, his back, facing Gaspar, who drew in closer.''Well, I must say you're quite efficient, nothing short of the new ruler of a Mafia Dynasty.'' The tall frame of Gaspar came into light, as he dragged a chair and sat opposite Antonio.Silence enveloped the dimly lit restaurant as Gaspar watched Antonio munch on the juicy meat. Both of them didn't say anything for a few minutes, until Gaspar eventually broke the lingering silence with a cough.''I didn't expect you to go against Caleb that quickly, knowing fully well the one behind him.'' Gaspar's eyes turned solemn, his earlier cheeky expression now gone, replaced by a firm gaze.The fork in Antonio's left hand hung mid-air, his eyes looking distant before momentarily sighing.''What do you take the Lorenzo Empire for?'' Antonio snickered.

At least that information was oblivious to its agents.Inside a large submarine base, in the depths of the sea, one could see different SBI agent
Mafia Wars: The Uprising Billionaire 26 Do Or Die
''Y-you.'' Dr Mike's face turned ashen, void of blood.''The… the bodyguard?'' His jaw dropped, realizing that Leonardo had entered the theatre room with them, impersonating one of the male nurses.''You sure are naive if you think you can harm Boss's brother without getting caught.'' Leonardo's soulless voice rang in Dr Mike's ears, making his entire figure tremble.''See, I didn't want to take part in this at all, I can explain, my family was-''''Dr Mike, it's time.''Just as he was about to go on a rant, he was cut off by the voice of a female nurse, informing him that the short break was over, and they had to get back to the surgery.Dr Mike swallowed with difficulty, exchanging looks with Leonardo. His mind was in chaos, should he go and finish his job or stay here and listen to what Leonardo had to say?With every second that ticked, his life could be snuffed out at any moment, and not just his alone, but also his family.''Go back there, act as though everything is normal, fin
Mafia Wars: The Uprising Billionaire 27 Sudden Turn Of Event
'How did I get into this mess?' Dr Mike bit his lips, as he collected the scalpel from the nurse beside him, cutting a tissue.The theatre room was suspended in the usual silence that one would expect. However, this silence was driving him nuts.Dr Mike's back was drenched in cold sweat, his forehead covered by beads of sweat as he focused his eyes on each anatomical component.The further the surgery proceeded, the more his heart raced, and at some point, he had to close his eyes as he struggled for breath.Phew!He drew in a long breath, then released a heavy sigh. There was no point worrying now. Leonardo had listed the options he had, and now it all depended on his ability.Well, he wasn't the only surgeon here. He tilted his head to the right, the other surgeon entering his vision.Her glasses were made from a thin frame, and her strawberry-gold hair was tightly packed in her headwear.He could see her eyes knitting, as she observed from a magnifying lens and the big light sourc
Mafia Wars: The Uprising Billionaire 28 Open Fire
Beep!Beep!Beep!Dr Mike used the brief moment of light out to roll across the floor, escaping the reach of the crazy assassin.Soon enough, the theatre regained its luminance. However, Dr Mike was appalled to see the female nurse's knife pointing at his chest.Bang!The sound of gunshots reverberated in everyone's ears, making some fall to the ground, while others covered their ears, their hearts racing, as it beat against their chests.'W-what's happening?' This was the question that clouded everyone's thinking, but now was not the time to solve a murder mystery or a crime scene.They needed to fend for themselves and leave the theatre alive.Thud.Dr Mike saw the lifeless body of the female nurse collapse to the floor, making his eyes widen in trepidation.'S-she's dead?' Dr Mike's lips quivered, as a whisper left his mouth.Before he could regain his composure, though…Bang!Another gunshot rang in the air. This time around, Dr Mike dived towards the wall, as he tried to find a s

Antonio watched as Alessio and Jasmin got tossed out of his mansion like dirty rags. His eyes, hiding dozens of thoughts that spammed his head.''Hey, Elvie.'' He spoke into the phone as he headed back to his bedroom.''Baby.'' Elvie's high-pitched voice that beamed with excitement rang in Antonio's ears.However, his expression didn't drop, his face remained placid, already accustomed to Elvie's crazed behaviour.''What do you think of parking some billions of dollars in one sweep,'' Antonio smirked, an evil grin plastered on his face.''I can't see you right now, but I can guess the fiendish look on your face, he-he.'' Elvie giggled. ''So tell me, who got in your black book this time around?'' ''Long clients who had stayed in my black book for way too long, and now need to be dealt with.'' Antonio shrugged, sipping from the cup of espresso in his left hand.''Uh, you mean…''''Yes.'' Antonio nodded.''Everything is yours, not interested in what I've left in the past anyway.'' He em

80 Kowtowing
''Sir, some people are seeking your audience outside.'' A maidservant in a brown gown and a furry coat announced, staying outside Antonio's bedroom.''Who are they?'' Antonio asked, his body curled up in bed.''One Mr and Mrs Lopez.'' The maidservant answered with a bow, even though Antonio couldn't see her from the inside.''Lopez?'' Antonio knitted his eyes, his face momentarily flaming up before bursting into soft laughter.''Fine…'' He twisted his waist, still on the bed. ''Let them wait at the courtyard.''''Yes sir.'' The maidservant replied with another bow, before walking away.Inside the bedroom, Antonio revealed a mischievous grin, smacking his lips in amusement.'So Alessio and Jasmin are finally here?' He thought, smirking.A few days had passed since he contacted Adams. A few days of peace and silence when he didn't have to bother about anything urgently. He knew that Alessio and Jasmin at some point would come back to him, and he had been staying indoors in patience, wa

79 Trouble
The warm incandescence that shone from the chandelier filled the large room with colours, a stark contrast to the gloomy greyish atmosphere outside.Jasmine paced from one corner of the room to another, her fists clenched, as she let out low curses occasionally.''They still won't explain the reason for their abrupt contract termination, huh?'' she shrieked.''Calm down woman,'' Alessio muttered from one corner of the room, as his fingers swiped across the keyboards.Their business had been flourishing as they expected, until their contractors and major suppliers sent an email this morning, informing them on how they'd not be able to continue business with them.Yet, all their efforts to get back to them have all proven useless. ''What do you think will happen?'' Jasmin asked, her fingers clutching her black bodycon.''I have no idea.'' Alessio furrowed his eyes, his gaze still on the screen.''D-do you think we should sell the business, and you know…'' Jasmin murmured, dragging her

The hot water from the shower drizzled down Antonio's body, relaxing every timy muscles in his body.Turning off the knob, he grabbed his towel, leaving the bathroom which exploded quth steam as he entered the master room.He had returned to his mansion here in the States, and he couldn't wait to have some cozy moments to himself.'What a hectic life are we living.' Anyone sighed, changing into a thick,white pyjamas before sinking into the bed.Right now, all he wanted was sleep, as every part of him screamed fatigue, and since he didn't haveany matter lf urgency at tge moment, he might as well sleep like a free man.'Um, well… in a real sense I'm a free man.' Antonolet out a wry smile,his eye lids already gumming to each other.However, in the middle of his grogginess, his phone buzzed which made him hiss.'Who again?' He murmured with his eyes closed while crawling on the bed.Repeating whether he should check the phone now or just drop everything and have a peaceful sleep, Antonio

The call ended with a beep as Antonio slid the phone back to his pocket.Phew.He sighed, his head tilted to the right as his eyes gazed through the window lost in thought.Silence enveloped him and the driver, the occasional horns, breaking the solemm mood.Antonio had not dropped his phone for more than a few seconds when Elvie's call came in, making him narrow his eyes, knowing that he wasn't expecting her call today.''Baby.'' Her shrikked voice ramg in his ears, making him contort his face.''What is it?'' he asked, ignoring Elvie's antics.''Hmph… can't I call because I miss your voice?'' she asked, making a fake angry tone.''Elvie what is it.'' Antonio snapped, his forehead creasing in annoyance.The conversation with Diego had already made him on edge, and her antics just felt overly jarring right now.Realizing that Antonio was probably not in the mood for some random chit chat, Elvie also fell silent, letting out a soft aigh before proceeding to speak.''I detected a malwar

The beautiful snow that came with sunset fell on Antonio's boots, and grey tuxedo, as he stepped outside of the hideout.His eyes looked into the distance, lost in reverie, as he recalled some lf the things that teanspired these past few days.As he walked towards his car, the man that came with him tagged along, opening the umbrella to shield Antonio but the kattwr waved his hand, gesturing for him to not bother.Tap!Tap!Antonio's boots sank in the snow filked ground, allowing the cold breeze to hraze his skin, alomg with the dryness of winter that rushed through his nostrils.Nearing a few inches away from the black limousine, the back door opened automatically, allowing him to enter, sinking into the back seat.Closing the door, his bodyguard entered the front seat, igniting the cat as he pressed the accelerator, speeding off the snowy road.Ring!Antonio's personal line buzzed,making him narrow his eyes, knowing that only few people had access to it.Glancing at the screen, the

''Careful.'' Raymond muttered, his eyes squinting in doubts.''Well… I guess it's safe.'' Jexter shrugged, ignoring Raymond's warning.Creak!Jexter tried to turn the knob on the safe, but it only turned in a 360⁰ without unlocking the mini door attached to the safe.''Phew, just as expected.''
