Time had a way of slipping by unnoticed. Just like that, a week had zipped past..

The events that had shaken the North and Ol‘ Mare had not even caused a ripple in Zabaleta.

“Zabaleta is as quiet as a graveyard. The second–in–command death didn’t make a splash.” Dallas,

the big boss of the Redwine family, mused as he watched the city blur by from his plush seat in a

Bentley.

He smirked. “However, just because the surface is smooth doesn’t mean there aren’t sharks swimming

below… Kase, what’s the word on the street?”

Kase Rabb, Dallas’s right–hand man, leaned in respectfully. “Boss, I haven’t got a line on Alexander’s

mug yet, but his right–hand man, George, is a big fish. Used to run with the Severn Group before he

set up shop with the New Chesire Group.

“When Alexander and Amber step out, it’s Patrick calling the shots for New Chesire. But the

underground? That’s George’s playground.

“If we could get George on our side…”

Dallas did not wait for Kase to finish. He plucked a bottle of aged wine from the onboard bar, filled a

glass to the brim, and took a sip, his detached laughter cutting through the hum of the engine.

“Ever wonder why the second–in–command bit the dust? Because he was dumb as a rock!”

“To take down Alexander, we can’t just go in guns blazing. We’ve got to play it smart–crack them from

the inside. That’s how you win.”

Dallas turned to Kase, a sly smile playing on his lips as he fished a sleek business card from his blazer.

“Visit George. Tell him if he’s on my team, he’ll be the Redwine family’s top Envoy- unlimited riches and

prestige are his for the taking.

“I’ll pay him twice what Alexander offers!”

Kase nodded eagerly. As the

dashing off.

Meanwhile, in another part of town…

Pulled to a stop, he gave Dallas a respectful bow before

George had not left Zabaleta since Wanda’s concert. He and Ray had been busy ensuring Amber

and Wanda’s safety, forgoing a return to Ol‘ Mare.

“Just one more month, and we’ll have the Zabaleta branch up and running.”

In the Zimler Entertainment Group skyscraper, Alexander perused the branch’s setup report. He

glanced up at George and said in a hushed tone, “Ray’s got things covered here. But don’t forget.

about my in–laws back in Ol‘ Mare. Their security’s just as important.”

George nodded.

Patrick, Susanne, and little Olivia in preschool were all under the watchful eyes of top–notch

bodyguards around the clock. They could handle the average crook with ease, but if a true heavy-

hitter came along, they might b

in for a real challenge.

George’s skills had skyrocketed ever since Alexander took him under his wing. He’d even

outpaced the renowned Andrew in energy transformation, and with the combat techniques Alexander

had taught him, he was a match for even the most formidable supreme grand martial.

With George at the helm, everything at Ol‘ Mare was under control.

“Sir Kane!”

A knock at the office door preceded the entrance of a muscular bodyguard who bowed slightly. There’s

a visitor downstairs claiming to be from the north. He’s asking for a private word with you.

Sir Kane.”

The north?

George glanced at Alexander, a crease of concern marking his forehead, “The Sacco family. maybe?

Ever since their fall, we’ve had our own people there, and there’s been no trouble at the branch office.

They’d usually call. What’s going on today?”

“Let’s not jump to conclusions.”

With a reassuring smile, Alexander gestured to the bodyguard, “Bring our guest up. Tell him.

George is ready to meet him one–on–one.”

The bodyguard bowed again and hurried off.

“Take a seat, George.”

As the bodyguard disappeared downstairs, Alexander’s smile widened. He swapped chairs with

George, taking a seat beside him, his grin deepening.

“Our northern visitor is like from the Redwine family.”
