Chapter 23 - the life-and-death gamble
Leonardo Falcone organized an elite gala at a super-luxury hotel, intending to publicly announce his return and declare his takeover of the Dante family's core real estate projects.
He stood confidently in the middle of the banquet hall, holding a glass of champagne, flashing an arrogant smile. But that smile instantly vanished when the main doors of the hall were thrown wide open.
Dante strode in, majestic and cold. Not a single bodyguard dared to step forward to stop him. All eyes turned toward the true king of the city. The atmosphere suddenly solidified.
"Did you think you could use a few dirty coins to buy my empire, Leonardo?" Dante spoke, his voice not loud but enough to make the entire hall tremble.
Leonardo swallowed hard, trying to keep a calm face. "The rules of the game have changed, Dante. It's the era of money and market manipulation now. Your guns are useless."
