His Little One✔️

36. Enzo's new reign.

Third party pov

Enzo walked through the corridors of the Ortega Mafia secret room which meeting between other Mafia's and business deals were held.

Everything was abruptly altered by his father, Mr. Ortega, as he had foretold. Now that Marcello was no longer in charge of the Ortega crime organization in Silcity, Enzo had triumphed since, undoubtedly, his father would immediately install him as the gang's legitimate leader.

He was proving to be the more pragmatic and level-headed sibling between the two, and things were going fairly according to plan. He was ready to get his hands on the mafia and would soon be running it. He would now be focused on killing Marcello and obtaining Amia.

There was only one thing that could have happened: Marcello would have discovered Enzo in a fit of wrath, acting like the fool he is, and Enzo would have killed him, claiming it was in self-defense, but that could all be handled afterwards.

Although Amia currently despises Marcello, she would regrettably hesitate to murder him. He wanted Amia to kill him, but it was too soon for that.

Enzo needed to take Marcello's life after getting the mafia so that Marcello wouldn't try to trap him later onwards.

When he entered the room, he was met by his father and his wife as well as a very irate Marcello who was being held back by Dillon and a few gang members. Enzo smirked at the thought of his brother being that enraged.

"You requested my presence?" Enzo asked.

"Yes I did." Roberto answered.

"I think it's time I officially came out with the truth about your identity." Roberto remarked.

"What the heck is going on, Roberto? Why would you bring a D'Angelo through here?" Menacingly screaming at her husband was Serene.

"I had not intended to do this so soon, but a dire situation demands an equally dire response. I had an affair thirty years ago, after we had been married for two years, which is why Enzo is here today-"

"Oh my god." Serene, gasped interrupting her husband as Enzo stared at Marcello with a smirk.

Dillons handheld back Marcello with a few guards behind him in case he planned to shoot him.

"It appears like Roberto has kept a lot of information hidden from us." Marcello grimaced, refusing to identify Roberto as his father any longer.

"I had a child outside of my marriage as a result and that child is Enzo-" Before Roberto could continue once again, he was approached by his wife and slapped in his face twice before she broke down crying, completely shocked, enraged, sad and humiliated that her husband cheated on her.

Marcello sat calmly this time instead of angry at his father.

"I wanted for Enzo to get close to the family and then initially tell the truth when he's settled in nicely, I wanted to let the two run this mafia accordingly as Enzo does have a right on it as well unfortunately because I have such an immature son." Roberto stopped before continuing.

"I made the decision to give Enzo the mafia to run temporarily in place of my son since he is older, more responsible, and has the same knowledge of how to operate a gang as I did. This will help me determine who would be significantly more effective at managing my mob." Roberto tried to comfort his wife further as she began crying uncontrollably, as he spoke the honest truth.

"You disgusting monster, I fucking despise you, and you've made a terrible mistake if you ever believe you'll fucking give my mafia to that piece of crap instead of my own son." While two of her gang members ran to hold her back, Serene screamed and hit Roberto in the face.

"That's where your wrong Serene, I've transferred all of your droit to me which means I have most of the say. All Enzo have to do is sign this contract and he'll be the head for the next six months until I say so." Roberto spoke making Marcello chuckle.

All this time Enzo's attention was on his brother seeing his calm reaction to all of this.

"I've done far greater than what you have ever accomplished as the leader of this mafia yet your still unsatisfied, I believe the reason for this is because you decided a long time ago that you wanted your elder son to run your mafia isn't it?" Marcello finally broke the silence.

"Don't be foolish, of course not Marcello." Roberto denied.

"If you let your son to sign that document, I will no longer be your son as of right this second. Instead, you've managed to replace me in the space of a single second with a son you are ignorant of. That son was the one who forced his younger sibling to shoot me. You and your so-called son will suffer in hell if you permit this to happen at this second." With composure, Marcello made a threat.

"This is the exact same reason why I'm more than willing to hand over the mafia to see how Enzo handles it, your immature and irrational and need guidance Marcello, your brother can show you how to be a mafia leader. And never forget that Dillon and all other Mafia's are bind to me and not you. So, there's no way you can unleash hell upon me or this mafia." Roberto remarked handing Enzo the paper and pen.

While Enzo attentively read the piece of paper, Marcello thrashed while being restrained by Dillon and a few other men. Serene cried out to the side, pleading with her husband to stop or else she would divorce him.

"Hopefully, Marcello, you and my wife will forgive me. This is also my chance to right the wrong that I previously did. My devotion to you will endure forever and only deepen with each passing day and-" Roberto was slapped in the face by his wife before he could complete the sentence once more.

"I used to think that you were a real friend to me, Dillon; a real friend wouldn't hold me back as I watched someone take my entire existence away from me." In a fit of rage, Marcello spoke.

"My loyalty is to whoever controls this mafia. Marcello, you should be aware of this since the contract makes it clear that it must be followed; otherwise, we would be in breach of the agreement, and my mafia could not afford the repercussions. I advised you to avoid Stella, but you utterly disregarded my advice, and now even Amia is no longer in your life." Dillon responded.

"Thank you, Dillon." Roberto spoke rubbing his cheek that was now red from the stinging slaps his wife gave him.

"How could I possibly decide to pass up this appealing opportunity, dear father? I'm more than prepared to work even closer with my new family and push our mafia to achieve better results." Enzo chuckled as he observed the application of his work.

"You're smart." Roberto praised watching as Enzo skimmed through the three-page contract before signing it.

"You are now the head of the mafia, any words you have to say?" Roberto addressed his son who is now the head of the mafia.

"I'm confident that after six months, you'll only regard me as the one to take the helm and continue your legacy because I'll make sure to outdo Marcello's brilliance I promise." Marcello was able to escape Dillon and the other man's clutches while Enzo smirked and continued speaking.

"We'll see about that. As for now my woman needs me." Marcello gritted leaving the room without even paying his mother any attention after she called out for him multiple times.

Enzo waited as he saw Marcello leaving. Serene also ran after his son while Dillon stood in the room.

"I will need to prepare myself if I am to move into my office of course." Roberto chuckled hugging his son.

"Naturally, I'll warn you to be very watchful of my son because he might do anything unacceptable." Enzo grinned, enjoying what he had heard from his father.

"I will take all precautions father." Enzo spoke before leaving.

Everything was going as plan and Marcello would be dead soon.
