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, he 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, he 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 her 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 him 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.
