“Deals.” Alessio shook hands with his new legal investor. They have signed the contract.“Glad to work with you. I am sure that working with you will bring a lot of benefits,” said the new investor with a friendly expression.“As I have said. I will give my best for you gentlemen. I won’t dare to disappoint you,” Alessio said confidently.“Before, I worked with Javer Geoffredo. Initially, I was very satisfied with his work. I have to admit his greatness to make me believe in the potential of his company. But seeing what happened between you two. What’s more, the mayor, governor, even the president supporting you make me doubtful,” he said suddenly.But Alessio didn’t mind at all. He loves hearing things like this. The people doubting David and speaking ill of his enemy sounded like wedding bells. It sounds so beautiful, people say.“I was very surprised, too. Not badmouthing him. But as you know, gentlemen. His name has just been heard among us businessmen who have been in the world f
Carina was done with her business here. She’s coming home soon. She had called the driver to come to the office. Meanwhile, Alessio returned to his work.Step. Step. Step.The sound of her footsteps echoed through the basement of the building. Carina walked quietly with her chin upturned. But then she stopped when someone suddenly greeted her.“Madam.”Carina was shocked. She turned her head to the right and left looking for the source of the sound. Her eyes narrowed when she saw a man standing leaning against the car. His arms crossed in front of his chest. His eyes stared straight at Carina.Carina was familiar with that face. Of course. Because that man is the same man as the man who was with her in the elevator earlier with Andriano. A man who made her quite stunned.‘Did he call me?’ Carina asked herself to be sure.“You called me, sir?” asked Carina politely. Her gentle voice brought a smile to his face.“I like your voice, madam. It sounds so sweet to my ears,” he said. He and
Finally, Diego arrived at the company. His brother was still inside the company even though it was already the middle of the night. Yes, he called his brother and told him about this. Alessio was very excited.Creak!Blam!Without knocking on the door, Diego entered. As he had expected, Alessio was already waiting for him.“Quickly, show it to me!” he said impatiently.“You’d be surprised where I got this from,” said Diego, no less enthusiastically. Diego showed the newspaper to Alessio, then he sat down on the sofa. Meanwhile, Alessio was busy reading word for word what was written in the newspaper.From the look on his face, Diego already knew that his brother was satisfied with what he got.“What? Explain. Whom did you meet?” asked Alessio. He kept the newspaper. Store it properly so that its condition is not damaged.“Former Lanzo driver when he was a teenager,” he said.“His former driver?”“Yes. And he said straight up if we need him as a witness. He will be happy to help us.”A
"Why-"Knock! Knock! Knock!Lanzo glanced at the door. His legs felt weak, but he kept walking there. His face was already pale. It's not just about him, but here, the most pointed person is David, his son.The son must be the one getting the most impact from this news.Creak.Apparently, it was Arsen who had been knocking on the door. The man came early in the morning because Lanzo was unreachable."Stupid! Have you seen the news?!” asked Arsen. Arsen's face looked very confused. It's the same with Lanzo.Lanzo nodded his head. “Damn it! Lanzo! Didn't your family destroy all those shit? How is it possible now that the news can resurface to the surface again now? Who is the mastermind behind this?!”"Of course, Alessio and his family, right?" from behind, there were David, Lily, and Mr. Baldovino.“Son—”"It's okay," David said hastily. This was clearly not Lanzo's fault. But Alessio himself was too smart to bother about Lanzo's past because he knew it would affect him too.“This is c
The reporter conducted the interview according to the procedure Lanzo wanted. Entering the Lanzo mansion grounds was already a golden opportunity for them. They didn't want to waste this opportunity.Thus, they began to inquire in an orderly manner.“Mr. Lanzo, according to the information listed on one of the television channels. Even tens of years ago, you were seen having an illicit relationship with a prostitute and you did sexual intercourse which made the prostitute pregnant. Is that true?”"I asked you back. What solid evidence can prove that the rumors are true?”Everyone fell silent.“Sorry, but a headline in the newspaper that was published by the number 1 print media in Italy at that time, they can't just spread fake news without any truth. In the main content of the news, write down the words of the nightclub visitors you visited where the prostitute worked,” said another journalist. Those words naturally made the others nod their heads in agreement.As for David and Lanzo
“If we do that, then the authorities will confiscate all the wealth that belongs to him. Which incidentally belonged to my father-in-law. While you know that my main goal is to return all the wealth to my father."Arsen snorted.“But if you are stubborn with your plan, you know what the risk will be on Geoffredo's family. You and my friend Lanzo have sacrificed too much, David! Haven't you thought that far ahead?! You're so selfish, you know?!” Arsen couldn't contain his anger.Because the emotions of the two men were unstable, both of them got carried away.“Selfish you say?! I'm not thinking just about myself! But other people's! What selfish do you mean?! And Remember! This kind of problem wouldn't exist if Lanzo didn't impregnate a prostitute! Why are you blaming the blame on me, huh?!”Arsen immediately rose from his seat. He grabbed David by the collar and forced him to stand up. Both of them stared with hatred.“ARSEN!” Lanzo helped mediate, and so did Bruno."Do not interfere!
This is the time. Where the grandfather will be interviewed by the TV station. Served as a resource person. The questions to be asked had been told beforehand, and Alessio himself had prepared the answers for the old man to say to the TV.Alessio doesn't only bring himself the grandfather alone. But he also brought proof that the old man used to work as Lanzo's personal driver so he knew the truth. Evidence such as photos when he was still working with them, even the work agreement with the family is also other evidence whose truth cannot be contested anymore.Alessio took himself to come to the shooting location. He sat quietly.“Rolling… action!”Alessio's smile widened.“What more can you say now to evade David? I assure you that your end will soon come!”***“LANZO GEOFFREDO AND HIS SON ARE VERY RELIABLE LIARS!” that was what they said on the TV.“ARGHHHH!”You could say that this is hell for him. What David was worried about finally happened. Where all the lies he shared with Lan
The situation in the room was so quiet. Very scary. No one dared to speak but their gazes were so sharp."I entrust everything to you, young man," until a voice was heard.Someone who is very respected by the other family members. The grandma, aka David's great-grandmother who is still looking very healthy at such a very old age.David still had his head down."And you, Lanzo! You brought him to this family. The beginning of a disaster! Even though we've never been at the bottom like this. It's like a free fall! Shame on you! For decades I tried to position our family to always be in the top five at the top of the Pyramid!"Lanzo did not dare to refute in the slightest as this was purely his fault."But there's no point in blaming each other like this. We have to work together. Clean up our family image from the scandal Lanzo and his son created. Javer. You are the leader. That means you should take full responsibility!"Silence. Until finally, David aka Javer started to speak."I was
