"Do you remember the incident when Carlo Chirico, the underboss of the Colvino family, was hit by a truck in a hit-and-run?"Eugene had to search his memory momentarily. The relatively minor hit-and-run incident involving Carlo Chirico had been completely overshadowed by the major events that had occurred without pause."...I remember. It happened right after Don Luciano was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer."It wasn't that long ago. In fact, it could even be considered recent. But in terms of how it felt, it seemed like an extremely distant event. The war that had finally broken out between the two families. At the beginning of it all was Don Luciano's lung cancer diagnosis, but the actual spark of discord was ignited by Carlo Chirico's hit-and-run incident."And you certainly remember the attack you and Valentine suffered afterward."Eugene silently nodded. The ambush and gunfight they'd experienced below the apartment, and the subsequent attacks on the highway. Valentine had bee

While Tony was shaking with anger, Fredo Codiseri, the consigliere, was clenching his teeth and glaring wide-eyed. It was an unusual expression for someone who rarely showed emotion."Fredo, what kind of man are you that you couldn't notice the Russians were having second thoughts?! They've betrayed us, no doubt. They've joined hands with the Luciano family. Otherwise, why would they disappear without a trace until now?!"Tony Rico redirected his anger towards Fredo. Fredo's jaw twitched."Do you think blaming me like this will solve anything? I didn't establish the deal with the Red Mafia. It was a connection made through Sicily, a relationship we've been trading with for a long time. Not just me, but no one could have detected their betrayal."Since Fredo's words were true, Tony Rico turned his head away, spewing profanities.The Belmonte family had already experienced the painful loss of an heir at Luciano's hands. Eugene Belmonte had miraculously appeared when they thought the Bel

"Is the sun too strong so you came in? Why don't you go up to the second floor?Leo suggested, using his back to shield the bloodied man. Instead of retreating to the second floor, Eugene sat on the sofa opposite Valentine."Don't mind me. Continue what you were doing."Leo stared at Eugene hesitantly for a moment, then shrugged. He tapped the man's cheek with the side of a knife that he had been cleverly hiding behind his back. The knife, already covered in blood, was further stained with the man's blood. The man, who had been slumped as if unconscious, opened his eyes and immediately trembled."I really don't know anything. I just did what I was told and got paid for it."The man muttered in a weak voice. Eugene turned on the TV with the remote on the table. Either the situation in New York had calmed down somewhat, or people had grown tired of the repeated news—the broadcast had returned to its normal, ordinary appearance instead of breaking news."AAAGH!"The man screamed. Eugene'

Alberto growled in an angry voice. Everyone nodded as if in agreement."What on earth is the reason for denying bail?!""They said the risk of flight was too high.""Damn it. This can't be happening. After all the money we've fed them, this can't be happening!""Who's the judge who dismissed our bail request? I'll go find him and make him change his decision right away."Everyone was excited and threw in a comment. Mateo raised his hand to calm them down."Unfortunately, we got the wrong judge. The recent unrest in New York has heightened people's anxiety, which is also a factor. We'll request bail again. The prosecution is just trying to put psychological pressure on us—they know they can't hold a terminal cancer patient for long."After calming the crowd, Mateo hesitated briefly before looking at Alberto and speaking."The problem is, the prosecution has evidence.""Evidence? What kind of evidence are you talking about?""They have an audio recording of him ordering the murder of Eu

Something caught his leg, and he fell backward. Thump. His back sank into the soft bed. Valentine crawled onto the bed on top of the fallen Eugene.Eugene couldn't look kindly upon Valentine for forcefully pushing him onto the bed. But his displeased expression quickly subsided. Valentine's brilliant blonde hair flowed down as he lay over Eugene, blurring his vision, and his even more brilliant and handsome face instantly suppressed any complaints. His slightly narrowed eyes and deep blue pupils reflecting the light from the window completely captivated Eugene's gaze."Valentin..."Leo entered the bedroom calling out, but seeing the two people overlapping on the bed, he showed a flustered expression. Valentine didn't take his eyes off Eugene regardless, and instead Eugene gave Leo a troubled look."I'll go buy some food. It will take about an hour... no, two hours."Leo quickly turned around and went down the stairs, deliberately making his footsteps heard."I don't think two hours wi
