Chapter 69 Leandro Joins The La Cosa Nostra





Meanwhile, in Maharlika, news about Senator Ramon's involvement with Leandro's drug cartel spread like wildfire. The old Senator was also captured by the police and with the strong evidence of his crime, he was bound to face a heavy punishment. The old Senator's subordinates who were involved in the drug trade were also detained by the police.

The citizens who once received the Senator's help were saddened by the news. The people's trust in the government declined and many activists even protested in front of the Malacañang Palace, the official residence and workplace of the President. 

At this moment, the current President of Maharlika, President Ferdinand Maracas Jr., was in a meeting with his trusted aides.

"Mr. President, what should we do now? The police have already captured Senator Ramon. That old man might sell us out!" A middle-aged man with spectacles muttered in a grim voice. 

The other people inside the office turned their gazes towards President. It was a middle-aged man with thin stature and chubby cheeks. His face was incredibly solemn as he interlocked his fingers on the table.

Suddenly, he muttered in a cold voice. "We need to kill him!" 

The others were stunned when they heard his words, but they soon nodded their heads in agreement. 

The President scanned the faces of everyone and said. "Kill him before he exposes us! I want you guys to do it cleanly! Do you understand?!" 

Sensing the President's cold gaze, everyone immediately nodded their heads. "Yes, Mr. President!"

"You guys may leave." The President stood up and walked towards the window. He then pulled the curtain lightly, just enough for him to see what was going on outside the palace. 

As if they had been pardoned, everyone quickly left the office. 

President Bong stared at the rallying civilians with an ice-cold gaze. "A bunch of trash!"

Leandro Manza pretended to be composed, but he couldn't hide the shaking of his hands. In front of him sat the consigliere of the Cassano Family, Eduardo Cassano alias Guzman. 

"Thank you for agreeing to meet me, Mr. Guzman!" Leandro eagerly shook the hands of Eduardo. He was like a fanboy who had met his idol. 

"I don't have a lot of time. What do you need from me?" Eduardo asked before taking a small sip from a wine glass. 

Eduardo didn't look like a member of the mafia based on his outward appearance. At first glance, he seemed like a professional businessman. However, behind this facade was a cold-blooded killer who had ended the lives of many people! 

Leandro was forced to swallow all the flattering words he was about to say. "Cough! It's like this, Mr. Guzman... I believe you already know that I have a decent-size syndicate under me in Maharlika. I want our group to become a part of La Cosa Nostra! Please consider my proposal!" He bowed his head as he uttered those words. Although he was powerful in Maharlika, in front of a giant like the Cassano Family, his drug cartel means nothing! I think you should take a look at

Eduardo put down the glass of wine and smiled at Leandro. "Why do you want to become one of us?" He asked.

Leandro raised his head and replied honestly. "To tell you the truth, I've been having troubles lately because of the police and the government. I already bribed some of their top officials, but some of those people couldn't be bought with money. I also want to expand my business into China and India. There is a huge market in both countries, but I don't have the network to contact the major drug dealers of those two countries." 

"Hahaha! You have great ambition! I like people like you the most! Alright. I'll give you the chance to join us. However..." Eduardo stared at Leandro while slowly leaning on his chair. With his arms crossed, he muttered. "I want 60% of all your earnings!" 

Leandro clenched his hands tightly upon hearing his words. This man had a huge appetite and he even asked for 60% of the earnings right off the bat! 'Eduardo is such a greedy piece of sh*t! If I decline his offer, we would miss this chance to become a part of La Cosa Nostra. Dammit!' 

"What?! Is it too much for you?!" Eduardo grinned at him.

Leandro's eyes twitched from Eduardo's provocative gaze. He really wanted to beat up this motherf*cker. 

Leandro took a deep breath to calm his nerves. After regaining his calmness, he forced out a smile and said. "We have a deal! I agree to your offer." 

"Hahaha! Good! I knew I wasn't wrong about you! Don't worry. I'll send people from our Cassano Family to support your business in China and India. With our network, it wouldn't take long for you to make a name for yourself in Asia!" Eduardo laughed heartily as he shook hands with Leandro.

Leandro felt much better after hearing those words. That was also the main reason he wanted to join La Cosa Nostra. His businesses would run smoothly with their help. 

"Welcome to La Cosa Nostra!" 

"Please guide us, Mr. Guzman!"

Arlan stayed in Paris for three days. His goal here had already been achieved and he even discovered Leandro's whereabouts. They spent the next three days visiting more tourist attractions. During these three days, he made new friends from the business field and most of them were the upper echelons of the LVMH Group. 

In the last three days, he didn't receive any red packets. The first reward was 100,000 dollars. The reward on the second day was a Body Enhancing Serum and the reward for the third day was an Advanced Language Proficiency. 

When he claimed the Advanced Language Proficiency, Arlan was made to choose three languages that he wanted to learn. In the end, he chose Japanese, Mandarin, and French. 

He had to go to Japan the next month so it was necessary to learn Japanese and he learned French because he wanted to become closer to Peter and the others. As for why he learned Mandarin, Arlan believed that it might come in handy since there were over 1 billion people who speak this language.
