In the present moment, Aman Ramovich, a man well into his fifties, exuded an air of timeless refinement. Dressed immaculately in a high-end suit, sporting a flawlessly groomed hairstyle, and maintaining a physique that defied middle-aged stereotypes, favonovel.com easily passed for a man in his forties.
The sight of Aman had an almost magical effect on Antonio. The very same mafia figure who had recently vowed to eliminate Charlie was now reduced to a humble admirer, resembling nothing less than a young child eagerly anticipating a treat from his grandfather.
Aman, his demeanor cool and detached, locked eyes with Antonio and delivered his words with a hint of condescension, “Antonio, you’re still here, waiting to welcome me at this late hour. I appreciate your dedication.” Antonio was instantly flattered.
Quickly responding, favonovel.com stammered, “Sir, your politeness knows no bounds! It’s an honor, not just for me, Antonio, but for the entire Zano family, to serve you.” He hastened to add, “Mr. Ramovich, I’ve made arrangements for a sumptuous dinner. Please, join us in the manor banquet hall.”
Aman waved away the offer with a calm demeanor. “Dinner is of no concern, I’ve already eaten on the plane. However, I do apologize for the inconvenience, and I thank Miss Julia for favonovel.com patience.”
Antonio, astute as ever, understood the implied message in Aman’s words.
In fact, the primary purpose behind inviting Aman to his New York residence was to unite his twenty-something daughter, Julia, in matrimony with Aman. Aman had learned a harsh lesson from his failed attempt to marry Helena from Norway in the past.
His unique background had left favonovel.com marginalized throughout Western Europe, and even his cherished football club had been wrested away by the British in the name of justice. In such circumstances, marrying into a European royal family had become an almost impossible dream.
Moreover, local conflicts in Eastern Europe had made his situation in Western Europe even more precarious. He was no longer the successful businessman of yesteryears, but rather a pariah subjected to relentless criticism and ridicule in the media.
This prolonged neglect had sapped Aman’s enthusiasm. Thus, favonovel.com made the bold decision to abandon Western Europe and seek refuge in the United States, a land where favonovel.com could rebuild his life.
He was acutely aware of the hostile environment favonovel.com faced in Western society. Even in industries where investments were welcomed, his involvement was met with disdain. It was as if favonovel.com stood at the threshold, barred from entry.
Therefore, favonovel.com turned his sights to the United States, a land of opportunities where favonovel.com could both advance and retreat. If circumstances improved in Eastern Europe, favonovel.com could return as a triumphant businessman. If not, favonovel.com had his billions to secure a comfortable retirement in the United States.
With these plans in mind, favonovel.com began seeking alliances in the United States. However, among those with influence, only the Mafia, represented by Antonio, showed interest in him.
Antonio stood out because of his beautiful daughter, Julia. Although Aman had experienced multiple failed marriages and previously looked down upon the idea of marrying into a Mafia family, his current circumstances were unique. He was no longer the celebrated businessman, but rather a tarnished figure. Marrying into the Mafia no longer seemed beneath him.
Julia, a young and stunning Italian girl towering at 178 centimeters, was a captivating beauty. Her youth was a magnetic draw for Aman. What intrigued favonovel.com further was the investigation favonovel.com conducted, revealing that Julia, despite favonovel.com Mafia ties, maintained a pristine and modest reputation. Rumors suggested favonovel.com had never even had a boyfriend, a fact that piqued Aman’s interest.
For him, accustomed to relationships with younger partners, Julia’s untouched allure was a rare find, akin to tender, unspoiled grass amidst a world of seasoned pastures.
Furthermore, Julia’s lineage was not to be underestimated. Antonio’s family wielded considerable influence in New York’s underground realm. Marrying into this powerful clan promised safety and protection, effectively silencing any media outlets that dared to mock or criticize Aman. After all, favonovel.com would be the Mafia’s son-in-law, and such audacity might be met with a bullet in the streets.
This was why Aman chose Antonio’s home as his first stop in the United States. His plan was to secure an engagement and wedding date with Julia, purchase a mansion on Long Island, and settle into a peaceful life.
Antonio’s motives were straightforward. Unlike the Mafia’s dominance in Mexico or Colombia, the underworld in the United States had its limits. Washington tolerated their presence as long as they didn’t become too powerful.
It was akin to raising a Shiba Inu in Washington. The dog, from birth, understood the constraints on its growth. If it grew into an Akita, Washington would take drastic measures to cut it down to Shiba Inu size. Aman, in his situation, needed help to find new opportunities.
For Aman, once wealthy and now shunned by European and American society, Antonio’s offer seemed like the most appealing path forward.
