Chapter 1077 - 1082: A Woman’s Intuition
Now, even the most isolated of people knew that the Cicero Family and Big Ivan were engaged in a fierce battle, for Big Ivan had made no secret of it and declared unequivocally that only one of them shall survive.
Which is to say, only one could live under the heavens.
What Yang Yi admired was how Satan remained hidden; this was clearly an affair between Satan and the Cicero Family, but it turned into a decisive battle between Big Ivan and the Cicero Family. As for Satan and Gong Yang, nobody knew about them, no one mentioned them.
The fact that news could be sealed to this extent was actually due to multiple reasons. Firstly, Satan was still relatively small-scale, fierce as they may be, they were known only within a small high-end clientele circle as the premier Mercenary Group, but to the entire underground world, the reputation of the Satan Mercenary Group was not yet influential, and the upper echelons of the Cicero Family were too embarrassed to announce to the world that a mere mercenary group was their biggest enemy.
Besides, the Cicero Family didn’t have the face to spill the truth.
Yang Yi now knew that Mario, under the pretext of discussing business with Gong Yang, lured Gong Yang to his villa for a meeting, where the key role was played by Big Ivan, who acted as a middleman. Well now, Mario went ahead and captured the guest he had invited over.
It’s not even time for Mario to start containing the spread of the news; if he dared to let others know why Big Ivan started fighting with him, he would no longer be able to hold his head up afterwards.
Credibility, credibility, credibility, it’s so important it’s worth saying three times.
In a lawless yet orderly underground world, what’s most important is credibility. As the head of the Cicero Family, anything can be done as long as others are unaware of it, but to kill an invited guest in one’s own house, Mario would be finished if word got out.
Backing up Justin was an easy task for Yang Yi, who didn’t need to get involved during these four days, almost paying no attention to it and only knew that Gong Yang was rescued and is now seeking revenge on the Cicero Family all over the world.
As for Justin, his situation was exactly as Yang Yi had anticipated before, both Big Ivan and Gong Yang had decided to push him for the role of the Cicero Family head, and according to what Annastasia indicated, it seemed that Justin also had internal support within the Cicero Family.
