Chapter 27
Unknown residence
There were board of men present inside a hall which consists of fifty men dressed in suits.
They were intrigued in their discussion, mainly talking about business and the sudden return of Damien.
When it was brought to their information that, Damien escape from jail, the loyalist to Damien who suddenly pulled up under this new MAFIA LORD start to shiver. Damien is a ruthless men who doesn’t thinks whenever he’s dealing with those that went against him. If they really need head to be safe, they think now was the best time to withdraw from the new MAFIA Lord and went back 5o Damien to apologise.
This new MAFIA Lord was the best thing that happened to them. He was easy to pull massive dons of mafia to his side because of his simple lifestyle, which wasn’t arrogant or dreadful. They aren’t sure their lives would be protected under this new man because he has never pull a trigger at anyone before in their presence but his aura and presence alone even, will calm the storming sea. He’s icy and cold while Damien is hot and fire.
None of them wished to be consumed by Damien fire.
The new mafia lord sat still In the middle of the room. His aura spreading supremacy around the room.
All of a sudden, among the mafia Don that was seated in the room; one of them whose name was don Russell, his phone bleeped, and he whipped his hand into his pocket to check. His countenance changes in that instant with tears streaming down his cheeks. He couldn’t control himself, as he stands up to tear his suit.
The other don wondered what must have gone wrong?
Another of the mafia Don phone bleep. when the Don will check, 5ue text message asks of him to give his phone to their New Mafia Lord and play the video that will be sent to his phone 3 seconds after. The Mafia Don look around which makes his gaze to collide with the mafia Lord whose brow was arched at him in question. The mafia Don bowed his head and gives the phone to one of the security standing close to him to give to the mafia Lord.
The mafia Lord read the text message and order for the security man to connect the phone to the projector, so they will be able to know of what the videos contain.

Everyone throw their face to Don Russell in compassion. Don Russell face was already red, he was hissing, itching his hair then clenching his fist against the table.
What a bad fate!
Don Russell house has been bombed along with his family, but his only grandson was spared. And now, there was a huge dog in front of the little boy which means it was Don Damien handwork.
Don Damien was the only one known to be dealing with his name with dogs. You often him or get in his nerves then, be ready for your offsprings to be fed to the dogs of don Damien.
Everyone turned their attention to the new mafia lord maybe he might have something to say. His facial expression was unreadable, hence; they couldn’t fathom what was going on in his mind.
“We should attack him now! And kill him.” One of the mafia Don protested which makes others to concur.
There was absolute silence in the room as the Mafia Lord never said. Other than him uttering words, he only waves for his mouthpiece to come nearer to him, he whispers some words which make his mouthpiece to nods his head several times.
“Meeting adjourned until tomorrow by 6 pm.” The mouthpiece breaks the camel’s back by breaking through the silence that exists in the room.
The Mafia Lord sat still while he watch them take their leaves. After they were all gone, don Russell was still seated in his former position. The mouthpiece told him the meeting is adjourned till tomorrow and that he should go home.
Don Russell looked at the MAFIA LORD with disdain in his stare.
How could he have instructed him to go home without sympathizing with him? His house was bombed alongside his family, and his only grandson was taken as a hostage for him to come to the lion dens.
“Why would you just send me off without uttering any words of sympathy for me or any words of assurance that you will avenge my family? Meeting adjourned? Just like that?” He cocked his brow at them.
There was silence as neither the Mafia Lord nor his mouthpiece utter any words, they keep staring at him as he was ranting and talking.
“Just tell me you’re afraid of Damien!” Russell dropped the bombshell.
The mafia Lord’s brow arched in annoyance but it was oblivious to Russell because his face was behind a mask.
The mouthpiece steps forward and glares at Russell. “Watch your word dog! Unless you wish for the grandson to also die miserably. Now get out of this room before the boss will unmask his face for you.”
“Unmask his face?” Russell repeated with fear and anxiety written on his face. But never would he ever risk that. No one sees his face and live! He has other deals ahead of him, he will revenge his family’s death by ensuring Damien dies miserably alongside his stupid heir.
Not that he needs the help of the mafia Lord tho, though he’s the second in command after Damien in Las Vegas, he can have his way carrying out his revenge anyway but since this is a society and the mafia Lord was the leader, he shouldn’t act recklessly.
Accord respect to whom respect due but this man is weak or probably afraid of Damien. Why would he just close and adjourned the meeting when he should have asked them to stay behind while they discuss how to get Damien off the earth?
The mafia Lord draw the attention of his mouthpiece to come closer to him, while he whispered some words in his ears.
“Go home and count your losses, be here by 6 pm if you wish to… But I would advise you to rest while you watch through zoom.”
Russell looked from the Mafia Lord down to his mouthpiece and his blood began to boil with anger.
Ridiculous!
