00:02I am the sole heir to the most feared crime empire in the world.
00:05My family controls global weapons and underground power.
00:09Even the greatest and Zdons bow their heads before our name.
00:12I had just dealt with a traitor inside my own family.
00:14My father called me.
00:16I've arranged a marriage for you.
00:17He's the youngest Don of the Eastern Territory's most powerful mafia family.
00:20Go meet him.
00:21Fine.
00:22So I piloted one of the Romano family's three custom-built armored aircraft to the private
00:26airfield.
00:27The moment I taxied into the parking, Stan, my family, had reserved for me.
00:31Several black SUVs from me sped onto the runway.
00:34To avoid hitting them, I had no choice but to make an emergency turn, clipping the runway
00:38equipment in the process.
00:39A woman stood at the bottom of the stairs, shouting toward the cabin door.
00:43Bitch!
00:44Who gave you permission to land here?
00:45This is Bellini family territory, not some public parking lot where anyone can land!
00:50My family reserved this landing area.
00:52You surrounded my aircraft and now you expect me to explain myself to you?
00:57Reserved for you?
00:58Who the fuck do you think you are?
01:00Listen carefully, bitch.
01:01In Port City, the Bellini family owns everything.
01:05If I gave the order, you'd be dead before you could open your fucking mouth.
01:09I stared at her for a few seconds before taking out my phone and calling my fiance.
01:13I'm busy.
01:14Make it quick.
01:15Don Bellini, you'd better come here in person.
01:17Otherwise...
01:18I froze.
01:19The young Don Bellini was actually this disrespectful.
01:22Thought you had some powerful background.
01:24Turns out you're not the garbage.
01:26You'd better pay for the damage right now.
01:28If Marco finds out you landed your aircraft on his private airfield without permission,
01:32you'll never leave Port City alive.
01:33She saw that I was barely 20 years old and that my aircraft carried no local markings.
01:38She completely underestimated me.
01:40You surrounded my aircraft, threatened me, and now you're demanding compensation from me?
01:45I pointed at the security cameras above us.
01:48Everything happening here is being recorded.
01:50If you continue showing disrespect to me, the Bellini family will answer for it.
01:54Little bitch, you still don't understand how this world works.
01:57Do you really think cameras or laws can protect you in Port City?
02:00Here, the Bellini family makes the rules.
02:03So you're threatening me?
02:06You landed on Bellini territory.
02:09You embarrassed our family.
02:10Now you'll pay the price.
02:11And if you refuse to pay the compensation, don't expect to walk out of Port City alive.
02:17I was raised in the heart of the mafia world.
02:19Dons who ruled territories showed me respect.
02:22I had no idea how to deal with a woman this foolish.
02:25Her arrogance only fueled my anger.
02:27You surrounded my aircraft, threatened me, and now you're demanding compensation?
02:31You're acting like you rule this city.
02:32Did you mistake yourself for a godfather?
02:35Did she just insult Miss Valentina?
02:36Is she trying to get herself killed?
02:38Nobody dares to make an enemy of the Bellini family in Port City.
02:41Valentina is Don Bellini's right-hand woman.
02:43Anyone who crosses her will be thrown to the sharks.
02:45You little bitch.
02:46How dare you speak to me like that?
02:48Get on your knees and apologize now.
02:51I might still leave your body intact.
02:53Valentina, is it?
02:54I suggest you watch your mouth.
02:56If you truly push me too far, even your boss won't be able to bear the consequences.
03:00Bitch, go to hell!
03:01Before she could react, I grabbed the gun, twisted her arm behind her back, and forced
03:05her to cry out in pain.
03:06Let go of me!
03:07At that exact moment, a cold and authoritative voice thundered from nearby.
03:11Valentina, you've been by my side for years.
03:14How could you make a scene at my private airfield?
03:16Marco Bellini walked over, surrounded by his bodyguards, and stopped in front of him.
03:20I looked him up and down.
03:22My father's judgment wasn't bad.
03:23The only flaw was the coldness in his eyes when he looked at me.
03:26Don Bellini, it's a pleasure to meet you.
03:28Please allow me to introduce myself.
03:30My name is Isabella Romano.
03:32I come from-
03:32No need.
03:33We're not a match.
03:34Go back to where you came from.
03:35For a moment, I thought I had misheard him.
03:38I flew all the way to Port City for more than 10 hours just to meet him.
03:41And the moment we met, he told me to leave?
03:44He actually thought he could make a fool of me.
03:46My anger surged.
03:47You didn't even let me finish introducing myself before sending me away.
03:50Is this your way of showing respect?
03:52Respect?
03:53Miss Romano, look at the land beneath your feet.
03:55This, this is the power of the Bellini family.
03:58And you still think you're worthy of standing beside me?
04:00I don't know what my father was thinking, putting someone like you beside me.
04:04A pretty face is all you are.
04:05What?
04:06She's really Don Bellini's fiancé?
04:08Impossible.
04:08A nobody from nowhere thinks she can climb into the Bellini family?
04:11She should take a good look at herself first.
04:13Don Bellini is the man every woman in Port City dreams of.
04:15I'll be the first to oppose this alliance.
04:18I stood there, stunned.
04:20When did I ever say I wanted to marry him?
04:22Fine.
04:22I'm just a pretty face and you're the great Bellini heir.
04:25Are you satisfied now?
04:26Since the Bellini family has no interest in this alliance, then our family's alliance ends here.
04:30My father told me old Don Bellini had given up a large piece of territory
04:34and a shipment of weapons to secure this marriage.
04:37If he found out Marco had destroyed the alliance himself,
04:40he might personally put a bullet through his own son's head.
04:43Bitch.
04:43Who the hell do you think you're looking down on?
04:45Marco is the youngest Don Port City has ever seen.
04:48Do you really think he needs an alliance with your family?
04:49I finally understood what a true bootlicker looked like.
04:52Of course.
04:53The great Don Bellini needs no ally.
04:55Just make sure the Bellini family never regrets that decision.
04:58Fine.
04:59The Bellini family's agreement with the Romano family is cancelled.
05:02I'll also cover your travel expenses.
05:04You can leave now.
05:05He pulled out a black card and threw it toward me.
05:07Thank you, Don Bellini.
05:08The moment I turned around, Valentina's voice rang out.
05:11Bitch!
05:11Stop right there!
05:13What?
05:13Miss Valentina wants me to stay for dinner?
05:17Isabella, you actually damaged my airport facilities?
05:20From the way Valentina looked at Marco,
05:22I could tell she had already exaggerated and twisted the story in front of him,
05:26using someone else's hand to strike.
05:28She was clearly very skilled at that.
05:30Judging from Marco's attitude toward me earlier,
05:32I knew there was no point explaining.
05:34Tell me, how do you plan to handle this?
05:37Compensation?
05:38Do you even know what you damaged?
05:40This isn't some ordinary private runway.
05:42It was built exclusively for the Bellini family,
05:45with facilities imported and customized from around the world.
05:47One piece of damaged equipment here could cost more than your entire fortune.
05:51What exactly are you going to use to pay for it?
05:53Just tell me the price.
05:54Whether I can afford it or not is my concern.
05:56Since that's the case,
05:5810 million.
05:59The maintenance cost of this private runway,
06:02along with the Bellini family's security losses,
06:04this amount is already being generous to her.
06:07Valentina, isn't that a little too much?
06:08Marco, this isn't just an ordinary airport.
06:10She insulted the Bellini family's rules and challenged your authority.
06:14Fine.
06:1510 million.
06:16Deal.
06:1710 million?
06:18She accepted it just like that?
06:19She's either bluffing,
06:20or she belongs to a family even the Ballonis don't recognize.
06:23Either way, she's finished.
06:25No one walks away after crossing the Bellini family.
06:27Most were simply waiting to watch me embarrass myself.
06:30But none of that mattered to me,
06:31because they had forgotten one thing.
06:33My aircraft had been damaged too.
06:35Since Don Bellini's compensation has been settled,
06:38shouldn't we discuss my aircraft now?
06:41My aircraft was custom-built for my family.
06:43Is she crazy?
06:44She thinks that aircraft is worth something?
06:46If it's damaged,
06:47the Bellini family can replace it with a new one without even blinking.
06:51This is the Bellini family's private airfield.
06:53You landed here without permission and damaged our facilities.
06:56An ordinary aircraft?
06:58Seems like you really have no idea what you've surrounded.
07:01It bears the honor of the Romano family.
07:03Call your family's elders.
07:05They'll tell you what a Romano family armored aircraft represents.
07:08An armored aircraft?
07:10A custom plane?
07:11What's so special about it?
07:12It's just a private aircraft.
07:14How much could it possibly be worth?
07:17Bitch, don't tell me you're trying to avoid paying.
07:20Let me warn you.
07:21If you can't come up with a compensation,
07:23don't even think about leaving Port City alive.
07:25In less than an hour, I had been threatened twice.
07:28Something like this was almost impossible in the world I grew up in.
07:31I stopped wasting my breath.
07:32In front of everyone, I took out my phone.
07:34Father, it's me.
07:36Isabella?
07:37How did the meeting with the Bellons go?
07:39Not well.
07:40Someone damaged one of our family's armored aircraft.
07:43What did you say?
07:44You're sure?
07:45That aircraft is one of the three custom armored planes owned by the Romano family.
07:49Who had the nerve to damage it?
07:51They surrounded my aircraft, damaged it,
07:53and now they're demanding compensation from me.
07:55And they threatened that I wouldn't be allowed to leave Port City if I refused.
07:58Who did it?
08:00Who did it?
08:02Are you the person this bitch called for help?
08:05Bring the compensation to me in 20 minutes.
08:08Every minute you're late, she'll lose a finger.
08:10My father was silent for a few seconds.
08:13Perhaps he had never imagined that someone would dare speak to him this way.
08:16So you're the one who damaged our family's aircraft.
08:19And instead of apologizing, you're demanding compensation from my daughter?
08:24Valentina still had no idea who she was speaking to.
08:27Stop wasting my fucking time.
08:29Are you gonna pay or not?
08:30I could feel the fury in my father's voice.
08:33Pay?
08:34Ten million?
08:35Is that all?
08:35That's far too little.
08:37How about one hundred million?
08:40Give me your location.
08:41I'll have someone send it over personally.
08:43Cut the fucking bullshit, old man.
08:46One hundred million?
08:47You actually think you can afford that?
08:49If you've got the balls, bring it yourself.
08:51Bellini Airfield.
08:52I'll be waiting.
08:54Don Bellini.
08:55You really picked yourself quite a right-hand woman.
08:57She actually threatened the Romano family's Don.
09:00Even in the entire underworld, I've never seen anyone this fearless.
09:04You've got less than ten minutes, bitch.
09:07Holy shit.
09:08Look at the sky!
09:09Everyone turned toward the sky.
09:11A formation of black helicopters cut through the clouds, flying directly toward us.
09:15A convoy of black armored vehicles entered the ocean, moving in perfect formation.
09:19The helicopters descended overhead while the armored vehicles surrounded the runway.
09:23The Romano family had arrived.
09:25At the sight before them, everyone froze.
09:27Even Marco's expression changed.
09:29He looked at the convoy approaching from a distance.
09:31Did the Bellini family invite another family today?
09:33No, Don.
09:34No meeting was arranged.
09:36I think you've come to the wrong airfield.
09:38No one answered her.
09:39The lead armored SUV slowly came to a stop.
09:41More than 20 heavily armed men stepped out first, forming two perfectly straight lines.
09:46At the same time, the helicopter's overhead descended one after another,
09:50their blades roaring across the entire airfield.
09:52The rear door opened.
09:53A silver-haired man stepped out.
09:55The moment he appeared, the entire Bellini family fell silent.
09:58The arbiter.
09:59Even Marco's pupils contracted.
10:00Why is the arbiter here?
10:02The arbiter ignored everyone.
10:03He walked straight toward me.
10:05Miss Romano, my apologies.
10:08I was delayed.
10:09The entire airfield fell silent.
10:11Valentina's face instantly turned pale.
10:13Marco finally realized the woman standing before him was anything but ordinary.
10:18Did my father send the compensation?
10:20One hundred million.
10:22By Don Romano's order.
10:23It's all here.
10:24He raised a hand.
10:25Several men immediately opened the rear doors of the armored vehicles.
10:28Needle cases filled with cash were stacked neatly inside.
10:31One hundred million.
10:32He actually brought it in cash?
10:33Don Romano asked the arbiter to deliver it personally?
10:36I've never heard of anyone receiving this kind of treatment.
10:39Marco's face grew increasingly pale.
10:41Valentina still refused to believe what she was seeing.
10:44She pointed at my aircraft.
10:45I don't care who she is.
10:47It's still just a fucking airplane.
10:49Don Bellini.
10:50It seems your people still don't understand.
10:52I raised a hand and pointed at the discreet Romano family crest engraved on the aircraft.
10:56This isn't an ordinary aircraft.
10:58There are only three like it in the world.
11:00Didn't I warn you?
11:02Not every private airplane is a Romano family armored airplane.
11:05That's impossible.
11:06I thought it was just an ordinary private jet.
11:09I smiled.
11:10Valentina, do you regret it now?
11:12You thought I flew here in an ordinary aircraft.
11:15You thought you could bully me simply because I kept a low profile.
11:20Marco, you have to help me.
11:24Help you?
11:25I'm afraid Don Bellini has more important things to worry about.
11:28Marco's face darkened.
11:31Isabella, don't push your luck.
11:32This is baloney territory.
11:34Oh, so that's a threat?
11:37I slowly took out my phone.
11:39Then perhaps I'll make the call for you.
11:41In front of everyone, I dialed a number.
11:43The call connected almost immediately.
11:45A deep voice came through.
11:46Miss Romano, I heard you arrived at the baloney airfield.
11:49How did the meeting with Marco go?
11:51I glanced at Marco before speaking calmly.
11:53Don Bellini, I have a question.
11:56Has the Bellini family grown so comfortable these past few years
11:59that you've forgotten who your allies are?
12:01I interrupted him.
12:03You have ten minutes.
12:04Be at the airwork in person.
12:06Otherwise, I'll consider the alliance between our families permanently over.
12:11Silence.
12:12A glass shattered on the other end of the line.
12:15Miss Romano, please calm down.
12:17I'll be there immediately.
12:18The call ended the entire airfield fell silent.
12:20Oh, my God.
12:23She just ordered old Don Bellini around.
12:25And he agreed?
12:26Who the hell is this woman?
12:28Whatever your background is, the Bellini family won't tolerate this.
12:32I smiled.
12:33You've got it backwards.
12:35The question isn't whether the Bellini family will let me go.
12:38It's whether the Romano family is willing to let the Bellini family go.
12:42You bitch!
12:44Kill her!
12:45More than a dozen Bellini soldiers rushed forward.
12:48Each of them wore the Bellini family crest on their suits.
12:50Stand down!
12:51Everyone turned.
12:52Marco's face instantly turned pale.
12:54Father?
12:55The elderly man hurried over to me.
12:57Miss Romano, my deepest apologies.
12:59I'm sorry you had to go through this.
13:01The moment Don Bellini saw the scene before him, the color drained from his face.
13:05He looked at me first.
13:06Only after confirming I was unharmed did he let out a long breath.
13:09Miss Romano, I wasn't too late, was I?
13:12You made it.
13:14Another few minutes and your son would have had his men point guns at me.
13:16The air around us instantly froze.
13:19Don Bellini slowly turned toward Marco.
13:21Is that true?
13:22Father, she trespassed onto our airfield, damaged our property, insulted the Bellini family.
13:26He looked at his father in disbelief.
13:28Father, you hit me?
13:30You ignorant fool.
13:32Do you have the slightest idea what you've done today?
13:35I protected the Bellini family's honor.
13:37Another slap landed even harder.
13:39Honor?
13:40You call humiliating the Romano family honor?
13:43Honor, you nearly destroyed the alliance that I spent years building!
13:47Marco stood there, completely stunned.
13:49He had never seen his father lose control like this.
13:51Valentina hurried over.
13:53Don Bellini, Marco only wanted to defend a family.
13:56That woman has been provoking us from the beginning.
13:58Don Bellini slowly turned his head.
14:00His cold gaze fell on her.
14:01So, you're Valentina.
14:04She forced a smile.
14:05Yes, Don.
14:06Without another word, Don Bellini raised his hand.
14:09Two Bellini guards immediately stepped forward.
14:11Take her family ring.
14:12Valentina froze.
14:13What?
14:14From this moment on, you're no longer welcome in Bellini territory.
14:18Valentina's face turned deathly pale.
14:20She stared at Don Bellini in disbelief.
14:22What?
14:23No.
14:23There has to be some mistake.
14:25I've been by Marco's side for years.
14:27I've done everything for the Bellini family.
14:30Her voice trembled as she stepped forward.
14:32Don, I was only protecting our family.
14:34I was defending the Bellini name.
14:37You weren't protecting this family.
14:38You were feeding your own arrogance.
14:40No.
14:41Everything I did, I did for Marco.
14:43Marco.
14:45Say something.
14:46You know me.
14:47I've been with you since we were children.
14:48You can't just stand there.
14:50Please.
14:51Tell your father to forgive me.
14:52Marco looked at her for the first time.
14:54He pulled his arm away.
14:55Valentina froze.
14:56Her lips trembled.
14:58Marco?
14:58He lowered his head.
14:59He didn't dare meet his father's eyes.
15:01I can't help you.
15:02The last trace of hope vanished from her face.
15:04She turned back toward Don Bellini.
15:06Tears streamed down her cheeks.
15:08Don Bellini!
15:09I know I was wrong.
15:11Please.
15:12Give me one more chance.
15:13I'll apologize to Miss Romano.
15:15I'll do anything.
15:16I swear I'll never make another mistake.
15:19She crawled forward, trying to grab Don Bellini's trouser leg.
15:22Before she could touch him, two Bellini guards stepped forward and blocked her.
15:26Don Bellini looked down at her.
15:27You still don't understand.
15:29This was never about an apology.
15:31You insulted the Romano family.
15:33You nearly destroyed the alliance between our families.
15:36You almost dragged the Bellici family into a war we cannot afford.
15:39His voice echoed across the airfield.
15:42The Bellini family has no place for fools.
15:45No.
15:45Please.
15:46I've served this family for years.
15:48I've given everything.
15:50You can't abandon me.
15:52Don Bellini didn't even look at her again.
15:55Take her family ring.
15:56Control her.
15:56Or, if she ever sets foot on Bellini territory again...
15:59Paused.
16:00Shoot her.
16:01Yes, Don.
16:02No.
16:03Marco.
16:04Marco, save me.
16:05I love you.
16:06I did all of this for you.
16:08Marco slowly closed his eyes.
16:09He never looked back.
16:10The guards tore the family ring from her finger.
16:12Her desperate cries echoed through the entire airfield.
16:15No one dared step forward.
16:16No one dared plead for her.
16:17Because everyone understood.
16:19The moment she offended the Romano family.
16:21Don.
16:22Please.
16:22I did everything for the family.
16:24You did it for yourself.
16:25His voice was ice cold.
16:27And because of your stupidity, you almost dragged the entire Belloni family into disaster.
16:32No one dared utter another word.
16:34Don Bellini faced the crowd.
16:35Listen carefully.
16:37Anyone who raised a weapon against Miss Romano, strip them of their family status.
16:41Anyone who insulted her, throw them out of Belloni territory before sunset.
16:46Yes, Don.
16:46Marco stared blankly at his father.
16:48He couldn't understand.
16:49Why would the most feared Don in Fort City bow before a woman?
16:52Don Bellini walked toward me.
16:54For the first time in front of his entire family.
16:56He lowered his head.
16:57Miss Romano.
16:58The fault lies entirely with the Bellini family.
17:01I'll accept whatever judgment you decide.
17:03A deathly silence fell over the airfield.
17:06Every Bellini member stood frozen.
17:08Their Don had lowered his head.
17:09To a young woman.
17:10I looked at him for a long moment before smiling faintly.
17:13No.
17:13An apology won't be enough.
17:15The alliance ends today.
17:17Don Bellini stood motionless.
17:19Cold sweat soaking through the back of his tailored suit.
17:21For the first time in years, the Don who ruled Fort City looked uneasy.
17:25Miss Romano.
17:27Name your price.
17:28I'll compensate you for everything.
17:30A price?
17:31So that's how the Bellini family solves every problem?
17:34You think everything can be bought with money?
17:36No.
17:37I only hope you'll give the Bellini family a chance to make this right.
17:41My aircraft was surrounded.
17:42My life was threatened.
17:44Your men pointed guns at me.
17:46And your son tried to extort 10 million from me.
17:49If I had been anyone else, would you even have come?
17:51Silence.
17:52The entire airfield fell deathly quiet.
17:54Don Bellini couldn't answer because we both knew the truth.
17:57If today's visitor had been an ordinary family, Marco would have buried the incident before sunset.
18:01No apology.
18:02No compensation.
18:03No consequences.
18:04Marco suddenly stepped forward.
18:06Father.
18:06Why are you lowering yourself for her?
18:09This is Bellini territory.
18:10The Bellini family has never bowed to anyone.
18:13His voice echoed across the runway.
18:14Several Bellini soldiers instinctively straightened their backs.
18:17They had followed the Bellini family for years to them.
18:20Watching their Don apologize to a young woman was simply unimaginable.
18:24So, you still believe your family can do whatever it wants?
18:28That's right.
18:29As long as we're in Fort City, no one can challenge the Bellini family.
18:33Marco.
18:35Stop talking.
18:36But Marco ignored him.
18:37I don't care who you are.
18:40The Bellini family will never kneel.
18:42I couldn't help but laugh.
18:44Don Bellini.
18:45It seems your son still hasn't learned what fear looks like.
18:49Just then, Marco's phone rang.
18:50He glanced at the screen.
18:52His expression shifted slightly.
18:53It was an emergency call from the family headquarters.
18:56He answered impatiently.
18:57What is it?
18:59Don Marco.
19:00Something's happened.
19:01What happened?
19:02Our eastern port has just been sealed.
19:05Marco's face turned pale.
19:06What did you just say?
19:07Our eastern port has been sealed.
19:09Every shipment has been stopped.
19:11Marco frowned.
19:13Who gave the order?
19:13There was a brief silence.
19:15Then the answer came.
19:16The Arbiter.
19:17The entire airfield fell silent.
19:19Marco's grip tightened around his phone.
19:20Impossible.
19:21The Arbiter has no reason to interfere with Bellini business.
19:24Before anyone could react, another call came in.
19:27Marco answered immediately.
19:28What now?
19:30Don Marco.
19:31The northern warehouses have been locked down.
19:33Every weapons depot is under inspection.
19:35Marco's expression stiffened.
19:36His phone rang again, then again, and again.
19:38Calls flooded in one after another.
19:40Our western route has been blocked.
19:42The Morelli family has suspended all cooperation.
19:44The Rossi family has canceled tomorrow's meeting.
19:46Our offshore accounts have been frozen.
19:48The southern syndicate just withdrew its support.
19:50Every report struck harder than the last.
19:52Marco's confidence disappeared completely.
19:54This can't be happening.
19:55I folded my arms and watched quietly.
19:58Don Bellini let out a slow sigh.
20:00He already understood.
20:01The Romano family had never issued a single threat.
20:03They didn't need to.
20:04The moment the underground world realized where the Romano family stood,
20:07everyone else made their choice.
20:09Marco finally looked at me.
20:11Did you do this?
20:12I smiled.
20:12No.
20:13I only made one phone call.
20:15The rest was the underground world making its own decision.
20:18Marco took an unsteady step backward.
20:20No.
20:21This is impossible.
20:23The Bellelli family rules Port City.
20:25We're one of the strongest families in the Eastern Territory.
20:27I looked at him calmly.
20:28No bullets were fired.
20:30No war was declared.
20:31But in less than ten minutes, half your family's influence disappeared.
20:36A wave of shock swept through the crowd.
20:38They brought the Bellelli family to its knees with a single phone call.
20:41But this is the power of the Romano family.
20:42We actually mocked the wrong person.
20:44Valentina collapsed onto the runway.
20:46She grabbed Marco's sleeve with trembling hands.
20:49Marco!
20:50No!
20:50This has to be a mistake!
20:52Marco didn't answer.
20:53His eyes remained fixed on me.
20:55For the first time in his life, he realized the woman standing before him wasn't someone
21:00he could crush with power.
21:01She belonged to a world far above his own.
21:04Just then, another helicopter appeared above the airfield.
21:07Its engines thundered across the sky.
21:09Every Bellini soldier instinctively looked up.
21:12One of Marco's captains recognized the insignia on the fuselage.
21:15The blood drained from his face.
21:16Don!
21:17The council has arrived!
21:19Don!
21:20The High Council is here!
21:21A convoy of black armored vehicles rolled through the gates.
21:24The Bellini guards immediately lowered their weapons.
21:27The rear door opened.
21:28An elderly man stepped out.
21:30Someone in the crowd gasped.
21:31The Grand Commissioner!
21:32Marco's expression changed instantly.
21:34Why would the High Council send the Grand Commissioner?
21:36The old man ignored everyone.
21:38He unfolded a black leather document.
21:40The golden seal of the High Council gleamed under the sun.
21:43His cold voice echoed across the entire airfield.
21:46Marco Bellini, you abused the authority granted by the High Council.
21:51You unlawfully threatened a protected member of the Romano family.
21:55You attempted extortion.
21:57You mobilized armed personnel without lawful cause.
22:01You have violated Articles 3, 7, and 12 of the Underworld Code.
22:04There must be some mistake.
22:06I only acted to protect Bellini territory.
22:08The Commissioner slowly raised his eyes.
22:10You no longer have the right to speak.
22:12He closed the document, then calmly announced.
22:14By unanimous resolution of the High Council, your recognition as Don of the Bilecki family is hereby revoked.
22:22No one moved.
22:23No one even dared breathe.
22:25Marco's pupils contracted violently.
22:27What?
22:29Effective immediately, the Underground World no longer recognizes Marco Bellelli as a Don.
22:35Any authority previously granted to him is numb and void.
22:38Any family continuing to acknowledge him as Don will be regarded as defying the High Council.
22:44The crowd exploded.
22:45My God.
22:46They stripped him of his title.
22:47He's not a Don anymore.
22:49From this moment on, he's just Marco Bellini.
22:52Marco staggered backward.
22:53His face had completely lost its color.
22:55No.
22:56No.
22:57You can't do this!
22:58I am the Bellini family's Don!
23:00The Commissioner looked at him indifferently.
23:02Don Bellini stepped forward in silence.
23:04Without a word of protest, he lowered his head.
23:06The Bellelli family accepts the High Council's ruling.
23:09No.
23:10Father.
23:11You can't accept this!
23:13Don Bellini looked at him with disappointment.
23:15From this moment forward, you are no longer my successor.
23:18And you are no longer recognized as a Don by the Underground World.
23:22Marco's knees hit the cold concrete with a heavy thud.
23:25The proud young Don, who had looked down on everyone only moments ago, was now kneeling before me in front
23:30of the entire Bellini family.
23:32Isabella, I was wrong.
23:34I truly know I was wrong.
23:35I shouldn't have judged you.
23:36I shouldn't have listened to Valentina.
23:38I shouldn't have insulted the Romano family.
23:40Please, give me one more chance.
23:42I'll fix everything.
23:43I'll marry you immediately.
23:45I'll announce our alliance to the entire Underground World.
23:48I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you.
23:50Silence fell across the airfield.
23:52Every Bellini soldier lowered his head.
23:54No one had ever imagined they would witness Marco Bellini begging a woman for forgiveness.
23:58I looked down at him quietly.
24:00The same man, less than an hour ago, had ordered me to get out of his territory, had mocked me
24:05as nothing more than a decorative vase, had thrown the alliance between our families back in my face.
24:11Now he was begging for the very marriage he had destroyed with his own hands.
24:14A faint smile appeared on my lips.
24:17Marco, do you remember what you said when we first met?
24:19His body stiffened.
24:21I continued calmly.
24:22The Bellini family has no interest in this alliance.
24:25Go back to where you came from.
24:26Every word I repeated made Marco's face grow paler.
24:29He lowered his head in shame.
24:31I was blind.
24:32I didn't know who you were.
24:34No.
24:34You still don't understand.
24:36This has never been about my identity.
24:39If I had truly been an ordinary woman, what would have happened to me today?
24:43Marco opened his mouth but couldn't answer.
24:45Because he knew.
24:47He would have had me dragged off the airfield.
24:49Perhaps beaten.
24:50Perhaps worse.
24:51No one would have questioned him.
24:52He had believed himself to be the law in Port City.
24:55I took another step toward him.
24:57Our fathers negotiated this alliance for years.
24:59They exchanged territory.
25:01They exchanged resources.
25:02They exchanged trust.
25:04And you destroyed it in less than an hour.
25:07Marco's breathing became heavier.
25:09His voice was almost pleading.
25:10I can still fix it.
25:12I'll apologize publicly.
25:13I'll kneel before the Romano family.
25:15I'll do whatever you ask.
25:16Before I could answer, Valentina suddenly rushed forward.
25:19No!
25:20You can't beg her!
25:21You're the Bellini family's Don!
25:23You're supposed to marry me!
25:25The moment those words left her mouth, the entire airfield fell silent again.
25:29I slowly turned to look at her.
25:31A cold smile spread across my face.
25:33So, after everything you've done, you still think you're the woman standing beside him?
25:39Valentina raised her chin stubbornly.
25:41I've loved Marco since we were children.
25:43I'm the only woman worthy of him.
25:45You were never supposed to appear!
25:47I couldn't help laughing.
25:48It was the first genuine laugh I'd had all day.
25:50I looked back at Marco.
25:52Did you hear that?
25:53She still believes the two of you belong together.
25:56I turned to Don Bellini.
25:58My decision hasn't changed.
25:59The alliance between the Romano family and the Bologna family ends today.
26:03Then I looked at Valentina once more.
26:05And as for you, if you're so determined to become Mrs. Bologna, I sincerely hope your wish comes true.
26:11Neither of them realized.
26:13My blessing was the cruelest punishment they would ever receive.
26:15Marco stared at me, his last trace of hope slipping away.
26:18No. There has to be another way.
26:21We can still fix this. I'll do whatever you want.
26:23I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you.
26:25You still don't understand.
26:27This was never about forgiveness.
26:29You had your chance the moment I stepped off that aircraft.
26:32You threw it away.
26:33Marco's shoulders trembled.
26:34For the first time in his life, he realized there were mistakes that could never be undone.
26:38Don Bellini slowly stepped forward.
26:40His expression had aged years in a single afternoon.
26:43Miss Romano, the Belloni family accepts the High Council's ruling.
26:47He turned toward Marco. His voice was steady.
26:49But every word carried unbearable weight.
26:52Marco Belloni, from this moment forward, you are stripped of every title, privilege, and authority granted by the Belloni family.
26:59You are no longer a member of this family.
27:02The word struck Marco harder than any bullet ever could.
27:04His eyes widened.
27:06Father, you can't.
27:08Don Bellini slowly closed his eyes.
27:10The Belloni family has already paid enough for your arrogance.
27:13You brought disgrace upon our name.
27:16You nearly started a war with the Romano family.
27:19I won't allow you to destroy everything generations before us built.
27:23Marco staggered backward.
27:24The Bellini guards, who had once obeyed his every command, stepped away from him one after another.
27:29No one saluted.
27:30No one acknowledged him.
27:32He was no longer their Don.
27:33Valentina suddenly rushed forward and grabbed Don Bellini's sleeve.
27:37Don Bellini, please. Marco only made one mistake.
27:41I've served the Bellini family for years. I've always been loyal.
27:44Please don't abandon us.
27:46Don Bellini slowly pulled his sleeve free.
27:49His eyes were colder than ever.
27:50You call this loyalty?
27:52You manipulated my son.
27:54You provoked Miss Romano.
27:58You nearly destroyed an alliance worth more than every asset the Belloni family owns.
28:03You are just as responsible.
28:05Valentina dropped to her knees.
28:07Tears streamed uncontrollably down her face.
28:09I love Marco.
28:10I only wanted to protect him.
28:14I'll apologize.
28:15I'll kneel before Miss Romano.
28:17I'll do anything.
28:18I looked at her and smiled faintly.
28:20You've spent the entire day telling everyone that Marco belongs to you.
28:23You mocked me.
28:25You humiliated me.
28:26You couldn't wait to become Mrs. Bellini.
28:29I paused.
28:30So congratulations.
28:31I'll grant your wish.
28:33Both of them froze.
28:34I turned toward Don Bellini.
28:36My only condition is simple.
28:38They leave together.
28:39If they love each other so much, they should spend the rest of their lives together.
28:44Don Bellini nodded without hesitation.
28:46So be it.
28:47He looked at the guards.
28:49Escort them out.
28:50Neither of them is ever to set foot on Belloni territory again.
28:56If anyone offers them shelter, they answer to the Belloni family.
29:01Yes, Don.
29:03The guards stepped forward.
29:04Marco struggled.
29:06Father!
29:06Please!
29:07I'm your son!
29:08You can't do this!
29:09Don Bellini never looked back.
29:11Valentina clung desperately to Marco.
29:13We'll get through this.
29:14We still have each other.
29:16Marco suddenly shoved her away.
29:18You ruined everything!
29:20If it weren't for you, Isabella would have become my wife.
29:23You destroyed my future!
29:26Valentina stared at him in disbelief.
29:28You blamed me?
29:29You were the one who looked down on her!
29:31The two began screaming at each other as the guards dragged them toward the gates.
29:35Not a single person stepped forward to help.
29:38The heavy iron gates slowly closed behind them.
29:40From that moment on, the Bellini family had nothing to do with either of them.
29:44Months later, rumors spread across the underground world.
29:47A man and a woman could often be seen wandering the streets of Port City.
29:51Their clothes were worn.
29:52Their faces were dirty.
29:54No family dared hire them.
29:55No business dared help them.
29:57One cold night, a bakery threw away its last loaf of stale bread.
30:01Marco and Valentina lunged for it at the same time.
30:04They wrestled in the middle of the street.
30:06Screaming and clawing at each other over a single piece of bread, the passersby laughed.
30:10No one recognized the former young Don.
30:13Far away, a convoy of black armored vehicles rolled through the city.
30:16The Romano family crest gleamed beneath the morning sun.
30:20I sat quietly inside the lead vehicle, reading reports on the expansion of our new territories.
30:25The Bellini family had become history.
30:27Marco and Valentina had become a lesson.
30:30Some people lose everything because they underestimate the wrong person.
30:33I simply closed the report.
30:34Let's go.
30:35The convoy drove into the sunrise.
30:37A new era of the Romano family had only just begun.
30:40We'll be right back then.
