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

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.

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!

And that time, Viona also asked me to do a phishing attack on Atkinson's own personal computer. And I once was monitoring his activities on the computer for fun.”It’s effective to attract Victor’s attention. He even changes his position, showing his interest with Judeo’s story.“What did you get?” asks Victor curiously.And so, Judeo starts laughing with a silly face.“I once found the old man was reading an adult manhwa,” says Judeo by holding his belly.“Manwha? What’s that?” asks Victor cluelessly, not understanding where is the joke.Judeo’s laughter slowly vanishes. His silly face turns into an uninterested one with squinted eyes. And now, it's Junior’s turn to find it hard to hold his laughter.“Ne
The Heir of the Family 087 - They Are Still Around

At least, they had to make an order at the café to enter the music hall. There were so many young people from all walks of life, from different racial backgrounds. In this hall, everyone was equal in the name of music. Likewise with the café in front of it, where music performances in the hall behind the café could still be heard. The café was also always crowded with visitors. Black, white, men and women, Italian, German, Irish, Mexico, all seem to be chatting, joking around with cheerful faces. It is so much different when compared to the conditions about half a mile from the café. This kind of spirit of togetherness and being united, originated from a music band with multi-racial members who see cultural differences as a wealth to be enjoyed. There is a banjo player who comes from a m
