Dante didn’t get where he was today by brute force alone. If that was all it took, he’d have suffered
a tragic death.
Taking off his apron. Mario urged, “Yes, you should all go now. Hendrick has to die. I can cover for you. Just get out of here.”
Dante grabbed Mario’s arm. “Come on, Mr. Cattaneo. Let’s get out of here. I’ll look after you. If the Union Gang sees Hendrick lying here dead, they won’t believe any story you tell. absolutely refuse to leave you here alone.”
As the heavy footsteps came closer, Pentagon Gang members grew more anxious. “We have to go, Dante!” his men urged.
“Yeah, Mr. Cattaneo, let’s go together. We can’t leave you here alone! It was clear that they all had a deep bond and a strong sense of loyalty. Even in this dire situation, they weren’t willing to abandon Mario.
The tension was at its peak. Yvette’s green eyes, as deep and still as a pond, seemed to pierce through the group. She casually ordered, “Sit down.”
Her voice was so flat and cold, it sent a shiver down their spines, Yvette’s two simple words instantly calmed the tense atmosphere.
Without a second thought, Dante sank into the nearest chair. Mario and the others quickly followed, all sitting up straight as if they were about to attend a formal meeting.
They exchanged glances. For once, we’re actually on the same page, they thought to themselves.
Mario felt a bit embarrassed too. It was humiliating to be so taken aback by a young girl, especially at his age.
Yvette sat down leisurely, then slowly poured herself and Jeremiah a cup of coffee. She kept one cup for herself and pushed the other toward Jeremiah.
Jeremiah took a sip of his coffee, his expression impassive as always. “Have you made up your mind?”
Yvette lifted her gaze, twirling the cup in her hand with a mischievous glint in her eye. She gave Dante a lazy look while twirling her cup. “How about we go with him?” she said coolly.
The others were left completely baffled by the conversation. They seemed to grasp parts of the conversation but couldn’t quite connect the dots
Dante felt like he’d been possessed too. ‘Why am I listening to a woman I’ve only met once? No matter how capable she is, how could she possibly take on a gang as big as Union Gang?’ he wondered..
For some reason, he believed in Yvette. It was a strange feeling, one he couldn’t quite explain. However, he believed his gut feeling and chose to follow Yvette’s advice, sitting quietly and waiting for Yvette to say something.
Dante and his men kept their eyes glued to the diner’s entrance. As soon as the door swung open, they were prepared to immediately draw their weapons and fight. However, Yvette and Jeremiah sipped their coffee leisurely, unfazed by the growing threat.
Just as the door was about to open, Dante and Mario, along with the others, felt their hearts leap into their throats.
The door, which was supposed to be opened, was suddenly slammed shut forcefully. Immediately after, they heard more footsteps, and the noise outside intensified. However, the footsteps they heard now were noticeably more uniform than before, indicating a high level of discipline.
Jeremiah quickly realized who Yvette called-she’d summoned the Seventy-Two Chambers of the Goodman family. These were ruthless mercenaries rumored to have ravaged Mysonna’s underworld gang, and they were at Yvette’s command. Jeremiah raised an eyebrow, his gaze narrowing. “When are you going to train me?” he asked casually, in an earnest manner,
Yvette put down her water glass and looked at him impassively. She raised an eyebrow and pursed her lips, slowly asking. “Aren’t I training you every night? What, you think my training isn’t intense enough?”

A knowing smile graced Jeremiah’s lips as he thought, ‘She’d never lost in this regard. After a pause, he said, “I think we could push our training a bit further,”
