Chapter 6 - The Council Gathering

The next afternoon at 3:45 PM, the grand executive boardroom of the Falcone estate was filled with twenty high-ranking lieutenants, syndicate bosses, and legal advisors.
At the head of the long mahogany table sat Underboss Silvio and his arrogant son, Marco, smirking openly as they waited for Dante to surrender the final control of Elena's foundation. Silvio already had a private jet scheduled for 6:00 PM to transfer the liquidated funds to an offshore bank in the Cayman Islands.
At precisely 3:58 PM, the double doors of the boardroom swung open.
Dante Falcone entered the room, wearing his signature black suit. But instead of entering alone, he walked beside Rosa Bennett, who was dressed in an elegant navy silk dress, her hair styled gracefully over her shoulders. Beside her, holding Dante's hand proudly, was little Sophia in her pink floral dress.
A collective whisper rippled through the room as the tough syndicate bosses looked at each other in utter shock.
Silvio slammed his hand onto the table, standing up in outrage. "Dante! What is the meaning of this circus?! Why are you bringing a housemaid and a toddler into a supreme council meeting?!"
Dante walked to the head of the table, placing his hand gently on Sophia’s shoulder as he looked down at the old underboss with deadly, unyielding eyes.
"Three minutes ago, it was 3:57 PM," Dante announced, his voice echoing with absolute power across the room. "For four years, four o'clock has been my hour of mourning. But today, four o'clock will be the hour of judgment."
