Chapter 194 The Mole

Alessandro arrived at the Center's headquarters, and the guards standing at the entrance instinctively bowed before him, a reflex bred from years of respect and fear. No one could deny who he was—Alessandro Valentino, the most powerful and invincible man in the underworld. His official departure hadn’t been announced, so his position still belonged to him, and no one dared to challenge or offend him openly. He walked in without hesitation or a second glance, no one stopping him or checking him for weapons. Alessandro moved freely, like a lion striding through his domain. When he reached the office of the Center, where the three heads—Salvatore, Giuseppe, and Luigi—were already gathered, he didn’t bother knocking. He pushed the door open with authority and entered, his presence as imposing as ever.
