When Rani reaches the office, she mutters to herself: "I expected worse."
Vassili blinks and adjusts his position, standing against the wall, and asks: "Gauthier sent you?"
Rani pauses by the chair and asks: "What good did either of you get from scaring Kronos away?"
Nadja looks at the girl with a thoughtful expression and says: "Kronos left on his own."
Rani nods silently and mutters: "We can't fight each other. Lily may not have been in the situation herself, but... she knows."
"Of course she knows! Lily is one of the most influential mafia queens in Italy, how could she not...!" Vassili grunts bitterly.
Rani silently rolls her eyes and says: "And she's the queen of the Criminal Empire."
Vassili raises his eyes to Rani and says: "Lily is merciless to a fault."
Nadja glances at Vassili and adds: "Not always.."
Vassily looks at Nadja and says: "I don't..."
Nadja blinks and says: "I think everyone in this room understood what you were trying to say."
Scipio knocks quietly on the door and says: "Lily gave me permission to stay with you. Since they can't get in touch with Adrian about something..."
Rani nods quietly and says: "Step forward then, Scipio."
Scipio does just that and quietly stands behind the chair where Rani sits and lazily places his hands on the back of the chair. His fingers are so close to Rani's bare shoulders that, on closer inspection, you could tell that the man's fingers were brushing her shoulders.
Vassili stands a few steps away from the table, leaving Nadja sitting on a chair at the far end of the cabinet. And... they all waited until Lily entered the office with Kro and Alina.
When Lily sits down, she puts her crossed arms under her chin and says: "It has come to my attention that Nikita - Nadege Genesis and Rani - Akita Neroni Wang, due to circumstances, migrated to Rome about 4-5... or rather 1-2 days ago because... why?"
Nadja looks at her fingers and says: "My queen..."
Lily straightens up more at the table and says: "Yes, prl Genesis - Than?"
Nadja bites her lip and says: "I hadn't originally planned to take Rani with me. And I didn't originally plan to disobey your orders, but... when my sources told me that Lev was moving at high speed towards Milan to make plans with Don Beaumont...."
"You decided to go ahead with your plan without my orders and attack on my behalf. Or am I wrong?"
Nadja tightens her grip on the armrests of the chair and hisses: "Everything I did was in your name. For you, for Kronos, for Rani, for... the entire Criminal Empire. Because I'm your left hand, and apparently Cronus' left hand too."
