When the door opened, Don Angelo got out of the limo and held out his hand to me saying, "For the record, you didn't need the dead man's switch to get what you wanted today. Stealing my money was brilliant. I was humbled by that hail mary of a power move. It could have crippled my empire. I would have handed you the reins if you wanted them after something like that. No questions asked."
I laid my hand in his and let him help me out of the limousine, but told him frankly, "I want nothing to do with your empire. You'll get your money once I get what I want, which is to go home."
He let this sit between us for a while as we walked through the doors of the Cattane
