In Charlie’s view, there are two distinct approaches to eliminate the malevolent forces in Europe and America.


    First, as he has done in the past, he could eradicate the Canadian mafia involved in human trafficking or the Mexican gangsters who engage in various nefarious activities—removing them through death or abduction. Alternatively, he could treat these evil entities with a semnce of humanity. He likens this to preparing a durian: first, you peel away the tough exterior and remove the sharp thorns, then savor the soft flesh in one satisfying bite.


    Although he didn’t think much of the petty cash at hand, Charlie knew he couldn’t leave empty-handed aftering this far. With ns to expand Gunbir’s influence, he viewed Antonio’s family as the first nourishing feast he would prepare for Gunbir’s growth.


    At this point, Antonio was no longer focused on the 75% profit that Charlie had agreed to leave him; his primary concern was survival and maintaining some semnce of the family business. He thought that if another opportunity arose, he might seek revenge against Charlie. But if that didn’t happen, he reasoned that at least he would still be alive.<fnfca0> This text is hosted at </fnfca0>


    However, when Charlie mentioned sending him to Syria, Antonio broke down in tears, pleading, “Mr. Wade, I’m willing to do anything you ask. I can offer you 75% of my profits, or even 85%! But please, don’t make me leave New York!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Charlie replied coldly, “You have two options: go to Syria or face death.”


    Antonio choked up, “If I leave now, the Zano family will be left without a leader. The family will copse, and the 75% profit I promised you will vanish. If you let me stay, I’ll work hard to earn money for you…” Charlie nced at Julia and said, “Once you’re gone, your daughter will take over your organization.”


    Julia immediately protested, “I don’t want that! I refuse to be part of the mafia!”


    Curiously, Charlie asked her, “Didn’t your father say that Sicilian women should be ustomed to witnessing bloodshed? I thought he intended for you to be his sessor.”


    Julia shook her head, insisting, “No… he just wanted to marry me off to that Russian…”


    “Oh…” Charlie realized, nodding slightly. He turned to Aman Ramovich and inquired with a smile, “Mr. Aman Ramovich, are you here in the United States looking for a partner?”


    Aman Ramovich, visibly anxious, awkwardly admitted, “Yes… Antonio mentioned he would be willing to give his daughter to marry me…”


    Charlie chuckled, “It seems we are fated to meet. Twice now, we’ve crossed paths while you were preupied with your partner, and I unintentionally disrupted both asions. Tell me, Mr. Ramovich, are you upset with me?”


    Aman Ramovich felt dejected; he had not expected to encounter Charlie twice while attempting to resolve his partner’s issues. The previous meeting was bad enough, where he lost face and received ten blows. This time, however, was even worse—he was missing a leg and feared being sent to Syria by Charlie.


    Yet in response to Charlie’s question, he dared not show defiance and quickly shook his head, saying, “Mr. Wade, how could I be angry with you? If I can avoid any anger, I’ll be grateful…”


    Charlie nodded, satisfied. “It’s good to have that mindset; it will help you endure challenges in the future.”


    Turning back to Antonio, he asked, “How many children do you have?”


    Antonio replied reflexively, “Three…”


    Charlie pointed to Julia and asked, “Which one is she?”


    Antonio quickly stated, “Julia is my second child.”


    Charlie continued, “What about the other two? Are they boys or girls?”


    Antonio answered honestly, “The other two are boys; the eldest is 25, and the younger one is 19…”


    Charlie then asked, “Who do you intend to have take over in the future?”


    Antonio replied, “I n to have my eldest son take over…”


    Charlie nodded, “Alright, then your eldest son will take over your position starting tomorrow. I’ll have Abbas from Wanlong Pcee over to assist with the transition.” He intended for Abbas to familiarize himself with the situation, ensuring that if there were future disobedience, they would know precisely who to target.


    Upon hearing about Wanlong Pce and the Wan Po Army, Antonio felt an even greater sense of dread. The name Wanlong Pce was synonymous with dominance in both the mercenary and gang realms.
