Chapter 17

• “You really think so? Forgive me admitting this but when I thought you were dead, I tried to take over and rebuild, but the boys even though respecting me would not follow. The Hollow syndicate for generations has been run by a Bellandi blood. You might have not been involved in the operation but you were always going to be the successor. Your father was waiting for the right time to introduce you and put you in charge.”
• I was surprised to hear Nico’s confession. So he had tried to take over my father’s organization in the past? Am I supposed to be worried by that?
• “Aria, it is sad that he died before his time, but you are alive, you are a Bellandi. You just have to take up the position of Don and the rest of the boys will follow. The group is currently scattered; a lot of our made-men are now ordinary mercenaries-- because of their loyalty to your father, they will not join other cartels. So please respect their sacrifice and lead them back to greatness.”
