In the face of dozens of Don Corleone's armed workers. William wasn't afraid at all, he was grinning. His heart was beating fast and the blood was rushing through his body."Attack!" one of the workers shouted, giving the signal for William to attack.With great calm, William ran forward. Without any fear, he crashed into the workers coming toward him. With quick and efficient movements, he crushed his opponents one by one.William used well-trained fighting techniques to evade their blows and attacks. Every punch and kick he threw had a clear purpose, hitting the vital parts of his opponents. His energy was not wasted at all.William's accurate punches left some workers lying on the ground, while others felt excruciating pain. William didn't draw any weapons, but his skills were so far above the workers attacking him that he felt no difficulty at all.The workers with shotguns retreated to take their shots. They felt so pressured that they stopped thinking about the safety of their c
"So, tell me briefly. what are you here for, sir, and what can I do for you?" asked Don Corleone."I have told you. I have come here for one purpose. To get my wife's half brother back. His name is Michael, he was kidnapped and brought here because he owes a large debt," said William."Hmmmmm, let me confirm that first, sir," said Don Corleone as he picked up the phone to call someone. Not long after, a well dressed employee appeared and entered the room."Did you kidnap a man named Michael?" asked Don Corleone to his employee.With a worried look on his face, the employee replied, "Yes, sir, he is actually one of our accomplices. But lately he has been carrying our merchandise without paying for it. That is allowed and will be counted as a debt, but the payment period must not exceed one month. Any more than that and we cannot tolerate it.""How much is the debt?" asked Don Corleone again."Ten million dollars, sir." Don Corleone's eyes widened when he heard the amount Michael owed h
William, who began to see an opening in the negotiations, then lowered Don Corleone back to his seat, "I will still pay you, but not at that amount.Don Corleone, who had now regained some of his confidence, looked at William with a serious expression, "How much are you offering?"William smiled, "I'll pay half that amount. Five million and that's it.Don Corleone thought for a moment, calculating the risks and benefits. "Sir, that is not a price I can accept. Ten million dollars is very kind, considering that the merchandise Michael is carrying has a high market value.William, who remained firm in his stance, continued to haggle hard. "Five million dollars is too much, Don Corleone. I won't pay more than half. Think about it, I can give you five million dollars without arguing, but that's the maximum I'm willing to pay."Don Corleone thought again and said, "I can lower it to eight million dollars, but that's also the last limit I can give.William frowned, "Eight million dollars is
Time always passed quickly for William in the village of Edenwall, unaware that the sun was already sinking. The afternoon brought a peaceful and mesmerizing atmosphere. The sun slowly sank below the western horizon, leaving a trail of reds and oranges that adorned the twilight sky. The soft twilight illuminates everything around it, creating long shadows and giving the scene a romantic feel.On the horizon, clouds form beautiful patterns, like a gently flowing natural painting. A light breeze is blowing slowly, carrying the fresh scent of nature and refreshing the warm afternoon air.The towering trees with their swaying leaves danced with the ripples of the wind. It was a beautiful afternoon with the light filtering through the trees. The smiles on the faces of the villagers of Edenwall were accompanied by the street lights that began to automatically turn on one by one.The situation was in stark contrast to Michael, who was now in the car with William and his small group. He sat i
For the second time, Michael felt a thick aura of fear from William. He had never thought that his brother-in-law, who had always despised him, would turn into a figure capable of exerting such pressure.When they entered the Lysander family residence, the initially tense atmosphere seemed to dissipate in an instant with a warm welcome from Emma Lysander. Tears of worry and relief mixed on her face as she saw that Michael had returned safely."Michael!" Emma exclaimed as she ran over and hugged her brother. "Oh, thank God you're safe. I was so worried."Michael smiled slightly, feeling the warmth of his sister Liliana's embrace. Emma Lysander then turned to William, "Thank you William. Thank you for bringing Michael back. I don't know what would have happened if you hadn't helped him."William, with his cold demeanor, replied, "No need to thank me. I just did what I had to do." Still, there was a gentle gleam in his eyes, if only for a moment.The conversation continued in the warm ro
The day had passed like running water, so fast, with nothing to slow it down. William, who had planned something with Michael, was waiting for the right moment to make his move. He, who was now exploring his mind, sat looking at the sky from the window of his room.Charlotte, who looked at William with questioning eyes. It was the first time she had seen William silent and in deep thought."William, what are you doing?" Charlotte asked quietly as she came closer.William looked away from the window and smiled at Charlotte. "Oh, nothing in particular, Charlotte. I'm just thinking about the next step after all this is over. Michael is safe, but there are other things I have to deal with."Charlotte sat down next to William and tried to read his expression. "Are you thinking of ways to deal with your uncle and his wife, William? You always have a well thought out plan. To me, that's one of the most interesting things about you."William smiled and nodded. "You're right, Charlotte. I have
"They will move here. To Litusia City." William said with a surprised look on his face."Who are they? Your aunt and uncle?" asked Charlotte with a curious expression."Yes Charlotte. My uncle and his wife are moving to Litusia temporarily. I don't know what their purpose is, but this will be a good opportunity for me to take revenge," William said with a look of angry fervor.Charlotte couldn't help but notice the fire in William's anger. Realizing that this was not a good thing, Charlotte tried to calm her husband down. She did not want William to be consumed by his own vengeance and forget who he was. With gentle and very slow movements, Charlotte embraced William from behind."I know you hate her so much. But remember, don't get too carried away with your resentment because it will destroy you." Charlotte whispered in William's ear.William felt the warmth in Charlotte's embrace and it was enough to make him sink. He realized that Charlotte was right, revenge can be a self-destruc
Charlotte agreed and nodded her head, "Whatever happens will happen. We'll think about the next step after mom gives us her answer. Now we'd better get something to eat because the sun is starting to rise." William smiled, "You're right Charlotte, I'm getting hungry too."The atmosphere in the dining room was filled with the tantalizing aroma of Charlotte's cooking. A pot of warm chicken gruel was placed in the center of the beautiful table. Immediately, the room was filled with warmth and cheerfulness, making it a cozy place to have breakfast together.William sat in a chair with a bright smile on his face, looking forward to the special dish Charlotte had prepared. Their eyes met, full of love and togetherness. Charlotte, with an apron around her waist, approached the table with some plates, spoons and a cup of hot tea.The scene at the breakfast table was enticing. The chicken porridge tasted delicious and looked so enticing with the tender pieces of chicken, sliced scallions, and
