Flavio Esposito is a cruel man. Or that's what most think. Being the italian mafia leader has its perks, but has drastic downsides.

No, not training her like his sons and keeping them there. Ha not that at all. Instead, he sent his daughter away to, what he thought, an ordinary boarding school. Let me tell you, he soon regrets that decision.
