Chapter 22 Gorilla Strength And Vile Bookworms: A Trio's Dysfunctional Departure
- Viola snapped her notebook shut. "Well, there's nothing more we can accomplish by staying here." She turned to Anca with her usual deadpan expression, though a glint of something resembling trust shone in her dull brown eyes. "Anca, I'm leaving the rest to you. As CEO of Mighty Blocks and," she paused meaningfully, "as a member of the Revellion Famiglia now, I expect you to manage this project properly in our absence."
- She produced a small, leather-bound notebook from her coat and thrust it into Anca's hands. "Contact these people. They're remnants of the Castelo famiglia." A rare hint of emotion colored her voice as she added, "Tell them... Luxer is alive. They'll come."
- Anca caught the notebook with a playful twirl, her grin widening. "Aye aye, ma'am!" she saluted with exaggerated flair, tucking the notebook safely into her breast pocket. "Try not to get yourselves killed by fangy aristocrats, yeah?" With that, she sauntered off toward the construction crews, already barking orders in a voice that carried across the worksite.
