At a rally in Central Park The audience was filled with excitement as Vittorio made his way onto the platform, his focused expression highlighted by the shining spotlight. Lenny stood by the precipice, holding a clipboard, observing his every action. Vittorio started by expressing his appreciation for everyone's presence tonight, speaking with a clear and authoritative tone. "As a team, we can create a more positive future for our community." The audience erupted in applause, and Lenny smiled. Vittorio had a knack for capturing hearts. As he continued his speech, Lenny's phone buzzed. Gio’s name flashed on the screen. “Lenny, we need to talk,” Gio's voice was terse. “Not now, Gio,” Lenny whispered, keeping his eyes on Vittorio. “He’s in the middle of a speech.” “It can’t wait. The Yakuza’s making moves and Vittorio needs to know.” Lenny sighed, glancing at Vittorio who was now shaking hands with supporters. “Alright, meet me backstage in ten.” Gio hung up without anoth

Jill walked back and forth in her room, with long shadows on the walls from the dim light of the chandelier. The memory of Gabriel's conversation with Yuta kept replaying in her mind as she tightened her fists. She needed to face him and attempt to uncover the truth. A soft knock on her door broke her thoughts. "Jill? Are you in there?" Gabriel’s voice was hesitant. Taking a deep breath, she opened the door. "We need to talk. Now." Gabriel stepped inside, his face a mixture of concern and confusion. "What’s wrong?" Jill closed the door behind him, her eyes blazing. "I overheard your conversation with Yuta. I know you're working for the Yakuza." Gabriel's eyes widened. "Jill, I—" "Don't lie to me, Gabriel!" Jill's voice was sharp, cutting through the air like a knife. "I know you're a spy for the Yakuza leader. I know everything." Gabriel took a step back, his face paling. "Jill, please, let me explain—" "You'd better tell me the whole truth," Jill interrupted, her tone fierce.

The luxurious grand ballroom at the Riverton Hotel was filled with a mix of wealth and political aspirations. Shimmering crystal chandeliers illuminate the guests mingling at Vittorio's campaign for mayor, each one a possible friend or foe. Jennifer nervously straightened her dress, looking around the room. Samuel stood next to her, providing a comforting anchor amidst the crowd of strangers. The two had just finished their passionate lovemaking and now they join the unknowing guests at the event. "Chill out, Jennifer," Samuel quietly said, feeling her stress. "We're here to build friendships, not create adversaries." Jennifer forced a smile. “Easier said than done. Everyone looks like they’re plotting something.” Samuel chuckled. “Well babe, welcome to politics.” They moved through the crowd, exchanging polite nods and handshakes. Jennifer spotted Vittorio near the stage, surrounded by a group of enthusiastic supporters. He caught her eye and gave a reassuring nod. “Jennifer, Sa

Jennifer hesitated, seeing the shift in Samuel's expression from concern to guarded caution. She knew that pressing the topic could lead to more questions she wasn't ready to answer. Quickly, she decided to change the subject. “I…..uhm couldn’t hear you guys properly but I believed you were talking about the election.” She said, hoping to change the subject. "I wanted to ask you about the upcoming election event rally," she said, forcing a bright smile. "I'm excited about it." Samuel’s eyes softened again, though the tension didn’t completely leave his face. "The mayor election event rally? Yes, it’s coming up soon. We’re raising funds for the new campaign for Vittorio's election." Jennifer nodded eagerly. "I’d love to help with the preparations. Maybe I could coordinate with the supporters or handle the decorations?" Samuel’s smile returned, more genuine this time. "That sounds like a great idea. I’m sure your touch will make the event even more special." She relaxed a bit, reli

Gabriel's heart pounded in his chest as he turned to face Max, who was eyeing him with suspicion. He quickly ended the call with Martin, trying to compose himself. "Uh, Max, I was just talking to my cousin," Gabriel stammered, his voice betraying his anxiety. "He’s been worried about me, you know, after the... incident." Max's eyes narrowed, clearly unconvinced. "Your cousin? Then why were you whispering?, if I didn't know any better I would think you were up to something" Gabriel swallowed hard. "I didn’t want to interrupt the meeting. It was a quick call." Max took a step closer, his presence intimidating. "You better not be hiding anything, Gabriel. You know how things work around here." Gabriel nodded vigorously. "Of course, Max. I wouldn’t dream of it." Max studied him for a moment longer before finally nodding. "Alright. But remember, I’m watching you." As Max turned and walked away, Gabriel let out a shaky breath. He needed to think fast. If Max or anyone else found out

"Don't you know the meeting started downstairs? What are you still doing here?"Jin’s face darkened, but he quickly regained composure. Luckily for him, Jill did not notice what he was trying to do. "Yes. I lost track of time, I was just here to get Jennifer, Samuel was asking for her downstairs,” he said, hoping that Jill believed his lie. “I’m going downstairs now. You guys should join us soon."He went past Jill and left the room, closing the door behind him.Jennifer let out a shaky breath. "Thank you, Jill."Jill walked over and placed a comforting hand on Jennifer’s shoulder. "Thank you? Jennifer are you okay? Did Jin say or do something?"Jennifer stopped for a moment, though her hands were still trembling, she knew telling Jill about the advances Jin was making on her would cause some rift in the family. So she decided
