Chapter 21 A Step Back In Time (V1)

• (Some months earlier)
• Before Lorenzo Moretti's untimely death, the Moretti empire was thriving under his leadership. Known for his fairness and the bond he shared among his men, Lorenzo was respected by all. Ruthless and kind were a good description of this formidable mafia boss and loving father. His son, Giorgio’s birthday was approaching, Lorenzo wanted to make it memorable for the Moretti's only son..
• On the evening of March 4th, as the sun dipped below the horizon, Lorenzo Moretti sat in his private office at the back of his most profitable brothel, "La Casa dei Desideri" (being interpreted as - The House of Desires), counting money with a cigar in his mouth. Lorenzo had always been a kind and respected boss, treating everyone in his mafia as family. He paid debts, covered medical bills, and ensured that everyone was taken care of. Even the Romanos, who were known for their own power, couldn’t deny Lorenzo’s leadership.
