It was Victor who asked all the top executives to hold a meeting, including a few people from the advertising and also the marketing department.
He deliberately ignores the matter with the people who burned down his house, and puts the matter on Counterbrand as his first priority.
Because of that, he didn't follow up that arsonist attack issue last night, despite the fact he already had some leads from Gambino.
“I could just tell Vincenzo to look for them,” says Mike, right after they get to the parking area.
“But we haven't done any rehearsal about this one. I’m not too…”
But Mike immediately interrupts Victor’s words. “Dude, we are professional. Vincenzo can clear this mess even without any rehearsal.”
Not wanting to distract his concentration for the next meeting, Vi

The Heir of the Family 212 - Is She That Important?
All eyes are averted to Leonard. And Leonard still isn’t able to lift his face. They look a bit disappointed, not expecting a professional like him to just ask to quit just because they are currently in a bad situation.“Please, Mr. Leonard Jackson. Lift your face. I hope you can give us reasonable arguments behind your sudden decision,” Viona continues.“No!” Victor suddenly interrupts her. “You don’t need to explain anything here. Leave this room. Just assume your resignation has been accepted.”Victor conveys his words with murderous eyes. It isn’t clear what’s inside his mind now.

The Heir of the Family 213 - Don't Tell Her
Viona holds her head with both hands. She then starts pacing around aimlessly in confusion.She has known Victor since they were still kids in the orphanage. She never knew that Victor had a sister.“How? Is this why Charles told you to move to Indiana?” she asks.Victor shakes his head. He then explains it as he keeps looking down to the floor.“Charles never told me to leave the orphanage. I was looking for her after I heard she ran away from her foster parents’ house. I was the one who wanted to move to Indiana, as soon as I learned she was living here.”“Is that why you suddenly disappeared six years ago? To look for her?” asks Viona again.Victor nods weekly. “I stalked her for a while before deciding to enter Purdue University,” he continues.“Shit! You should have told me,” Viona grumbles. “Everyone in the orphanage was worried to learn that you suddenly disappeared. The kids were crying for days, you know, thinking that you were abandoning them.”Victor is suddenly chuckled a

The Heir of the Family 215 - The Remnants of Regola d'Oro
In the early afternoon, Victor and Mike are already back at the Counterbrand main office building. And just like this morning, Victor also asks Mike to not leave the office because he plans to leave the office early for whatever agenda he is going to do. “I’ll go get Judy first,” says Victor as he leaves that parking area. When he is heading to the elevator, he finds Judy is in the copier section inside one small department store on that first floor. Eventually, he also finds Oliver there talking with Judy. And his first impression is nothing good, thinking that Oliver might have been flirting with his cute little sister. And of course, he never liked Oliver since the first day he met him at Counterbrand. And indeed, right now, Oliver is trying to secure a chance to invite Judy for a drink. “Do you have any free time after this? I’d like to have a drink with you if you don’t mind,” says Oliver while Judy is still waiting for his documents to be copied. “I’m not so sure about this
The Heir of the Family 216 - Mistake
Despite the fact that Lt. Schneider doesn’t show his interest for this small thug, that lady officer keeps explaining to him about that man a bit further. Because she has a lead for the other one whose name has been mentioned before. “He had been in and out of jail on a few occasions. Most of them are carjacking and house burglary. And it looks like we also have enough information on this Clark in question. He could be this man’s partner in crime. There was one occasion when they both got caught together for car theft.” “Partner, huh? Could it be that they argued over the split money after doing a crime, and then that man killed him?” mumbles Lt. Schneider in his deep thoughts. He then issues his men to look for that man with the name Clark. But even after that, that fat cop is still looking unsatisfied by that first presumption. They don’t find any traces of another man in that apartment room, except the traces from that one man who has been killed. One thing that comes to his min
The Heir of the Family 217 - A Bad Judgement
Weirdly, at the moment, Lt. Schneider looks so annoyed with the fact they have Clark Newell in jail. With that strong alibi, there’s no longer possible for him to accuse that man of being a murderer. He already had a witness, and all he needed to do was to force that man to be the culprit, and then get the credit for that case. Apparently, he really wanted to catch that man as the killer, even though he might not be the real killer. Cristian Barrios was just a small insignificant thug. This fat cop cares not about that man’s death, and has no concern to look for the motive and the real killer who did it. But he just loses the chance to solve that case and has to continue with the investigation. And the thing that makes him even more annoyed is the ones who caught Clark on the street, Officer Frank and Officer Morgan from the patrol unit. “You are telling me you caught him just because he was naked in public?” asks that fat cop by restraining his rage. “Yes!” Frank answers curtly w
The Heir of the Family 218 - Vincenzo Has The Talk
He thought that a man like Dennis would understand him and Counterbrand’s real position regarding that defamation. He forgot that Dennis is the kind of man who was once resigned from Laundrix Wilson only because of some bad judgement on that company.Now Victor is realizing that Dennis is the type of man who doesn’t want to compromise with just anything.“Well, I get it. It won’t be easy for Counterbrand right now. Not after that defamation on me that has also damaged Counterbrand’s image,” says Victor, trying to respect Dennis’s decision.“No, please!” Dennis interrupts him with some mixed feeling written on his face. “My decision has nothing to do with what happened between you and Albert’s son. I’m just in a position where I can’t just accept any offer from any company at the moment,” explains Dennis.Victor frowns his face with some curiosity. But then, his attention is averted slightly to the activity of those scary looking guys in the garage.“Is it because of them?” asks Victor
