Chapter 13 - The Rise of the Maid
Two weeks passed. The news of Don Viktor Moretti’s death and Capo Bruno’s treason sent shockwaves through the underground syndicate. The other crime families quickly bowed to the Russo estate, realizing that Don Damian Russo was stronger, smarter, and more lethal than ever.
The maid quarters were a thing of the past for Hannah. She now lived in the luxurious east wing suite, wearing fine silk dresses provided by Damian's personal tailors.
However, despite her elevated status, she remained the same humble, brave woman. She spent her days overseeing the estate’s charitable foundations, ensuring hundreds of families received medical care and financial aid.
One evening, a grand dinner was held in the estate’s main dining hall to celebrate the reunification of the Russo territories. Over fifty high-ranking capos, lieutenants, and business partners filled the long mahogany table.
Hannah sat at the head of the table, directly to Damian's right. She wore an exquisite dark navy evening dress that matched Damian’s custom suit.
Some of the older capos whispered among themselves, looking at her with quiet disapproval.
"She was just a servant girl a month ago," Capo Franco whispered to his neighbor. "Why is Don Damian giving her a seat above the council?"
