Diego began to feel the weight of the seemingly endless fight. With a sigh, he called out to his team, “Alright, boys, playtime’s over. Let’s wrap this up and get what we came for.”
The three other Iron Wolves nodded in understanding, their expressions shifting from playful to focused. Each member moved with precision, delivering calculated, final blows to their opponents. One by one, the adversaries fell, some foaming at the mouth, others gasping for air as their bodies succumbed to the expertly executed strikes.
Within moments, the room was silent, the once relentless foes now motionless on the ground. Diego surveyed the scene, satisfied that the threat had been neutralized. “Alright, let’s get to work,” he instructed, signaling his team to begin their search.
The Iron Wolves moved swiftly, their actions efficient and practiced. They scoured the room, gathering the items and information they had come for. As they worked, They removed all evidence that could reveal the Sicilian Familia’s involvement with the Moretti Family illegal operation, ensuring only the Moretti Family would be held accountable.
The team regrouped and made their way to the elevator. As the doors closed behind them, they ascended to the ground floor, leaving no evidence of their presence behind.

On the other side, Marco and Carlo can be seen dressed impeccably. Marco is wearing a charcoal gray suit with a modern cut, exuding confidence and style. His light blue shirt adds a hint of color, while his dark maroon tie provides a bold contrast. His shoes, made of deep brown leather, are as polished as the sleek silver watch on his wrist, hinting at both wealth and punctuality.
Carlo, on the other hand, is dressed in a navy blue suit with smooth, well-pressed fabric. His crisp white dress shirt is complemented by a silk tie in a subtle shade of silver, adding a touch of sophistication. His polished black leather shoes reflect his attention to detail and the image of a man who means business.
Marco and Carlo can be seen at a company called Romano Enterprises, the business front of the Romano Family. As they enter the building, they are greeted by a sleek, modern lobby with high ceilings and polished marble floors. The walls are adorned with contemporary art pieces, and large glass windows allow natural light to flood the space, creating an atmosphere of sophistication and success.
The two make their way to the front desk, where Carlo approaches a young woman with a professional demeanor. “Good morning,” Carlo begins, presenting a set of documents. “We’re here to apply for a loan.”
“Good morning,” she replies, taking the documents from Carlo. “Let me just take a look at these.” She starts reviewing the paperwork, her eyes scanning each page with precision.
Marco stands beside Carlo, quietly observing the interaction. Carlo waits patiently, maintaining a professional stance.
After a few moments, the woman looks up, meeting Carlo’s gaze. “Everything seems to be in order,” she says, her voice steady. “We just need to verify a few details, and then we can proceed.”
“Of course,” Carlo responds smoothly. “We’re eager to move forward.”
As she continues to review the documents, Carlo notices her stealing glances at him, her cheeks slightly flushed. He decides to lighten the mood. “I must say, your attention to detail is impressive,” he comments with a charming smile. “It’s not every day we meet someone as delightful as you.”
The woman blushes deeper, momentarily flustered. “Thank you,” she replies, trying to maintain her composure. “I just want to make sure everything is perfect.”
Carlo leans in slightly, lowering his voice. “Well, you’ve certainly made our day a little brighter.”
She giggles softly, clearly flattered. “You’re too kind,” she says, her professional demeanor softening.
Marco, watching the exchange, smirks slightly, letting Carlo handle the situation. Carlo, sensing the moment, asks, “Would it be alright if I got your contact information? Just in case we have any follow-up questions.”
The woman hesitates for a moment, then nods, scribbling her number on a piece of paper. “Here you go,” she says, handing it to Carlo with a shy smile.
“Thank you,” Carlo replies, taking the paper. “We appreciate your help.”
The woman then leads them to a private room, explaining that they will need to wait for a senior representative. As Marco and Carlo enter the room, she departs with a smile, clearly flattered by Carlo’s attention. Before she leaves, Carlo gives her a playful “call me” gesture, leaving her blushing as she walks away.
Left alone in the room, Marco and Carlo settle into their seats. After a few moments of silence, Marco can’t resist teasing Carlo. “So, ‘It’s not every day we meet someone as delightful as you,’ huh?” Marco mimics Carlo’s earlier tone, adding an exaggerated wink for effect.
Carlo chuckles, shaking his head. “Hey, it worked, didn’t it? She was practically blushing the whole time.”
Marco laughs, leaning back in his chair. “I have to admit, you do have a way with words. Maybe I should take notes.”
Carlo grins, feigning modesty. “Well, what can I say? Sometimes you just have to charm your way through life.”
Marco raises an eyebrow, still amused. “So, what’s the plan? Are you going to call her?”
Carlo shrugs, a playful glint in his eyes. “She was kind of cute. Who knows? Maybe she could be girlfriend material.”
Marco smirks, crossing his arms. “Just make sure you don’t get too distracted. We have a mission, remember?”
Carlo nods, still smiling. “Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten. But a little harmless flirting never hurt anyone.”
Marco chuckles, shaking his head. “Alright, Romeo. Just make sure you keep your head in the game.”
At that moment, the two heard footsteps approaching, prompting them to straighten up and adopt the posture of professional businessmen. A distinguished older man entered the room, wearing a sharp suit and a neatly tied tie. He exuded an air of authority and experience.
The man took a seat across from Marco and Carlo, offering a polite smile. “Good morning, gentlemen. My name is Johnson, and I’m the senior representative you’ll be speaking with today.”
“Good afternoon, Mr. Johnson,” Carlo replied, maintaining a confident demeanor.
Mr. Johnson began with a series of formal questions. “So, tell me more about your business plans. What exactly are you hoping to achieve with this loan?”
Carlo responded confidently, “We’re planning to establish a hardware and metal supply business. We believe there’s a strong market demand, and we have a solid strategy in place.”
Mr. Johnson nodded, taking notes. “And what makes your business different from others in the market?”
Carlo smiled, “We’re focusing on providing high-quality materials at competitive prices, along with exceptional customer service. We want to build long-term relationships with our clients.”
Mr. Johnson raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “Interesting. And how do you plan to secure your supply chain?”
Carlo replied, “We’ve already established connections with several reliable suppliers. Plus, we’re looking into innovative logistics solutions to ensure timely delivery.”
Carlo continued, “In addition to our supply chain plans, we’re exploring a collaboration with a tech company to integrate smart inventory management systems. This will allow us to optimize stock levels and reduce waste.”
As Carlo spoke, he mentioned something that caused Mr. Johnson’s expression to change.
