THE POWER OF RICH MAFIA

Chapter 16:SOMETHING WENT WRONG



"Tskckck… Judging from the expression of the most dangerous Mafia Master in all of Italy who is gloomy and wants to pounce on people, I think I know My twin refused the offer," said Biserka mocking Benvolio with great pleasure and satisfaction.

"Shut up! She hasn't turned down my offer, and she just hasn't accepted it yet." Benvolio dodged Biserka's taunts and looked for another alibi.

Biserka chuckled at Benvolio's answer. "What offer did you offer Mataya that she had to think about it first?" Biserka then took the water that was on the table and began to drink it.

"A fighter aircraft project," said Benvolio, expressionlessly.

Uhukk...uhuk...uhukk... (cough)

"Fighter planes?! Have you gone mad? Is it for your country?" Biserka choked in shock at Benvolio's words.

Benvolio ignored Biserka's question again and went to Biserka's apartment balcony.

"Not for the Italian State, but the personal interests of the Constanzo family." Pavlo replaces Benvolio answering Biserka's question.

Uhukk...uhuk...uhukk... (cough)

"What did you say? For the Constanzo family's interests?!" Biserka choked back a second time in surprise at Pavlo's answer.

She couldn't understand what the two of them were thinking to dare to make such an unnatural deal with Mataya, her sister.

"Hey, do you think Mataya will accept such a suspicious offer? She could be suspicious of both of you. Change the offer, before you two make the situation even more out of control and not expected by all of us." Biserka asks Benvolio and Pavlo to change the offer they both made to Mataya.

"No. I won't change my offer," said Benvolio from the balcony, rejecting Biserka's opinion.

"You stubborn, bastard! Alright, do what you want! But if the plan to take Verasha, my partner, fails. You must be held accountable."

Biserka was annoyed with Benvolio, who was stubborn and acted arbitrarily without considering the slightest advice from him.

She chose to go back to her laptop and equipment, continuing to look for more information about the monster's lair.

"The Constanzo family wants to make fighter planes for personal use? Isn't that against the law? Isn't there a law against the Constanzo family that they dare to make fighter planes for personal gain?" said Ahmed surprised when he finished reading the document Mataya gave him.

Mataya looked at Ahmed with annoyance sight. "And you can still praise me before?!"

"Ah, I'm sorry, Taya. I won't praise you anymore," replied Ahmed, making Mataya bend her face even more in annoyance.

"Okay, okay, I mean, I won't compliment you without knowing what you're going through right now," he continued.

"He can destroy the world, Ahmed. Even more than that. He can trigger another world war in the future. His power is hazardous for the world."

"Should I accept his offer and become one of the masterminds behind the destruction of the world in the future? Or should I refuse it and silently watch the destruction of the world he does?" Mataya asked Ahmed.

She was very doubtful and confused in making this decision. She had no direction or clue as to which path she should take. Everything is grey, and no one knows what will happen in the future.

"Yes, this is a difficult choice for you. Rejecting it is like starting a war with the Constanzo family. But you are the one who understands best what is right in law, Mataya."

"You are a prosecutor who upholds justice and is never afraid of any threat of power that harms society and the world. It would be best if you believed in your decision to decide this offer. I will support whatever your decision is. I will accompany you to the end. You will not be alone in facing this all," continued Ahmed, calming Mataya and trying to give him advice while trusting Mataya about whatever decision she made.

"But don't you suspect why it was your airline that they chose and offered this very unreasonable project? I mean, the competitors are more experienced in making fighter planes and are also in Europe, where the Constanzo family is." Ahmed gave his opinion again, which was suspicious of the cooperation project to make these fighter aeroplanes, plus the shares offered were fantastic value.

"Yes, I was suspicious like you. At the beginning of the explanation about this project, Benvolio's assistant said that I would profit from half of the shares. I thought it was just helping the Constanzo family build their airline, but I found out the project was to build fighter planes. And it is for personal gain. Well, since that, I'm starting to suspect them," answered Mataya, confirming Ahmed's words and agreeing with him that there is something odd about this project.

Mataya continued, "He wants to build a fighter plane for personal use and give me half a share of the project, isn't that suspicious? I mean, where did the project funds come from, and what are the warplanes for?"

"Actually, what do they want from you?" Ahmed was confused by this situation.

"Could it be that they want to gain access to the main base by offering this unreasonable project and attracting my attention with all of this? But if that's true ... what do they want in my main base?"

Tring …

The notification on the Benvolio smartphone goes on. He gets a message. Benvolio immediately opened the news on his smartphone and read the contents of the message.

[]

Ben, I'm already at the Pudong-Shanghai airport. Come here and pick me up!!!

-Callista-

Benvolio rolled his eyes lazily, seeing the contents of the message. If only he had known that it would be Callista, his adoptive sister, he would not have opened the message quickly and would have read it later.

Unfortunately, he was in a hurry to open the notification from his smartphone because he was worried that there would be information about the lair of the monster he was hunting.

Because he still cares about his adoptive sister and has to obey Xavier's orders, his adoptive father, who told him to look after Callista while in Shanghai, decided to pick up Callista at the airport and took the time to reply to messages before picking her up.

[]

Yes, I'll be there in a minute. Don't hang around! If you are lost, I have no intention of looking for you!

-Benvolio-

*send*

"Pavlo, I will pick up Callista at the airport. Would you mind calling back Vla or Mataya regarding yesterday's offer and making a meeting with them again? I will take care of the rest after picking up Callista." Benvolio immediately put on his jacket and took his car keys lying on the table in Biserka's living room.

"Yeah, fine, Ben. I'll take care of that as soon as possible, don't worry." Pavlo nodded assent to Benvolio's request.

Benvolio rushed out of Biserka's apartment to pick up Callista at Pudong airport.

"Hey Pav, how's the offer going?" Biserka asked Pavlo and immediately sat down next to Pavlo while eating her favourite snack.
