It invites Victor’s interest to hear Jimmy’s story. Somehow, he has a kind of unique interest with any story regarding mafia, or something that has a link to Italo-america people. It’s like some kind of a myth has just unfold. “About this La Marca. Who were they? Some kind of mafia?” asks Victor. “They were just some thugs who had big dreams. But they did want to be considered as an influence like The South Bend Mob or Labella Family.” And then, Jimmy is silent for a moment, as if he is thinking about something in the distant past. Not long, and he then shakes his attention back. “That’s it about the past. How about you? Don't tell me you came all the way here just for that cup of coffee.” “Indeed I came here for this cup of coffee,” Victor replies nonchalantly. “By the way, I did win the legal dispute with my ex-wife. Just like what you said. Right after the arbitrator read my documents, he didn’t give my ex-wife any penny,” says Victor. “Told you,” replies Jimmy. “Well, I felt
After leaving Jimmy, Gambino immediately calls his friend, Willie. Even though he didn't get much information from Jimmy, Gambino knows very well that Victor is not just nobody. “Make sure no one touches that man! No need to find out who he is anymore. Whatever it is, don't touch that man!” [What about Albert? I'm not sure if I can stop Albert if he intends to do something to him.] “I’ll tell this to the other three leaders. If necessary, I will tell this to Eusebio himself.” [Is it that serious?] “Yes! He is not someone we should meddle with.” Meanwhile, Victor is almost reaching his house in the Geist area. When entering the residence area, only then does Victor notice a Cadillac following him from behind. Even until Victor parks his car in front of the house, the Cadillac also par
Victor glances around, and finds the apartment room looks more like a secret service headquarters, with two monitors still busy monitoring whatever they are monitoring. Meanwhile, one blonde guy with a pigtail is busy playing a video game with his computer. “Judeo!” calls Mike. “Sorry, I’m busy raiding the boss’ dungeon here. Just serve yourself,” that man named Judeo replies. “Dude, we were under attack just now!” says Mike. “I know. And I'm also under attack at the moment,” replies Judeo, still busy with the online game on the computer. “See! Did you hear what he said?” “What? He is playing an online game,” replies Victor. “That’s it. We work for your dad, not for you. If you insist on living here, just make yourself comfortable. Don’t expect anyone to serve you here. And one thing else, you can’t just get in and out, like this is a playground. We have a protocol here, to make sure no one follow us to this place,” says Mike coldly. “Oh, okaay!” replies Victor with an awkward
Meanwhile, Emma is still stalking Lucas at the moment. She has been sitting in a café for several minutes, observing Lucas who is currently across the street. What Emma finds at the moment begins to strengthen her suspicions that it is Lucas who was trying to do something bad to Victor before. Because at this time, Lucas is seen serving two strangers talking with him. The two of them looked so different unlike people in general. The heads of the two are slightly barren in the front, with narrow eyes so much like those of an Asian. And Emma, with all her prejudices, begins to assume that the two men are criminals, who make contact with Lucas as mercenary villains like she often sees in the movies. In fact, both of them are just Lucas' business partners who are originally from Asia. They could be from Korea, China, or maybe some countries in the oriental region. But fo
While in the taxi, Emma is in a dilemma over her decision whether to use the money left by Victor for flight tickets to Canada. Or maybe she can use that money to survive until she can find a new job. What is clear, now she feels like she no longer has any obligation to protect Victor from anyone. Although she still thinks that Lucas has a grudge over Victor. When Emma just gets out of the taxi, she is a little surprised to find Judy in front of her house. It looks like Judy has been waiting there for a while. “Judy? Have you been waiting here?” asks Emma. “Yeah, quite a while,” Judy replies. Judy looks a little confused. She thought the house was empty because Emma and Victor were probably out together. But now, she finds Emma is home by herself. “Where's Victor?” Judy asks. “I came here because there’s something I want to discuss with him.” “Why don't you just call his number?” asks Emma. “Well, I'd love to tell him in person if possible,” Judy replies. Now Emma is confused
Victor is silent there for a moment, looking at the gun in front of him. It’s a Glock 19, a semi-automatic pistol. It’s a handgun so commonly used by armed and police forces in almost 50 countries.Not that he hesitates to accept it, and this is not the first time he holds that kind of gun. In fact, he has already used the same gun when he was attacked before.It's just that he's starting to feel like he really can't keep taking lightly every problem that comes his way. If possible, he just wants to be able to live a quiet life like before, living life as a nobody.“What?” asks Mike, snapping Victor from his reverie. “Don’t tell me you are afraid to use a gun? You showed absolutely no hesitation the last time you snatched a gun from me. Or perhaps, should I teach you how to use it?” says Mike taunting Victor.Victor glances a bit at Mi
When they return to their hideout, Mike finds Victor still busy with the handgun he has left for him.His face is contorted, noticing Victor hasn’t accepted the loss. Victor is still busy disassembling and reassembling the handgun with full concentration.“What are you doing?” asks Mike.“Shut up. Don't bother me!” replies Victor curtly with an annoyed face, like a toddler occupied with his toys.For now, there isn't much they can do. Because they don’t know for sure who had just carried out the attack on Victor. One thing they need to do for the time being is to make sure that Victor is safe.Even after the next few hours, Victor still preoccupies himself with those silly things, while Mike and the others are busy discussing their countermeasure regarding that incident.Occasionally, Mike glances towards the room where Victor is still busy with the handgun. He can’t help but to be curious with Victor’s antics.“I can’t really understand what’s inside his mind,” Mike whispers to Judeo
Mike rubs his forehead, looking tired with Victor who is acting like a kid who doesn’t know his role, position, and his situation. He can’t imagine that someone like Victor would be Charles’s successor to be the heir of the family.“Don’t you realize you are the target here. We can’t just let you out and show your head to them,” says Mike.“What do you expect me to do? To shut silent here?” asks Victor.“Yes! Just leave everything to me. There are still so many things you can do here with Judeo and Junior,” says Mike.Victor still glares so cold at Mike, apparently unhappy with that choice. But Mike just ignores him.“Vincenzo! We leave!” calls Mike.Vincenzo immediately leaves the couch. He pats Victor on the shoulder as he passes, convincing him to just stay in the hideout.“Like he said! A boss like you shouldn't be dealing with small fries,” says Vincenzo.“Who is the boss? Didn’t you say that I’m not your boss?” Victor argues back at Mike.Mike just ignores him, averting his atte
