The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5941

Instead, they split all the illegal transactions and gave them to those seemingly unrelated puppet gangs below. In secret, they continuously pushed those gangs to expand their influence in New York and even across the entire East Coast, aiming to increase their power and overall illegal income.

Meanwhile, the Zanos’ public face, led by this generation's head of the family, Antonio, was doing its best to whitewash its identity and ingratiate itself with high society.

Antonio knew very well that the higher echelons of society needed tools like the mafia. However, their hypocrisy meant they wouldn't allow any open cooperation with the mafia. This meant that for a mafia family to get their attention, the first thing they needed to do was to cleanse themselves.

To put it simply, what high society needed now wasn't something hidden under the bed, like a night pot. They needed something they could openly display in the bathroom, which was clean and odorless like a toilet.

Traditional mafia families were like dirty and smelly night pots. So, Antonio was eager to lead the Zanos family in transforming themselves from a night pot to a toilet.

At this moment, Antonio was commanding his family members and trusted subordinates at his estate to arrange everything splendidly. Today, he was hosting an important guest at his estate. All members of the Zanos had put down their tasks early and rushed home to prepare. This invited guest was crucial for the Zanos’ next step in development. If they could reach a cooperation agreement, the Zanos would advance to a higher level.

In the main hall of Zano Manor, a table over ten meters long had been set up. Imported flowers from France adorned the table, along with the best crystal tableware and metal cutlery. Forty-seven-year-old Antonio watched the maids bustling about, arranging everything meticulously, his face filled with anticipation.

At this moment, his seven or eight siblings, their children, and their spouses were all dressed up and ready, approaching Antonio to greet him one by one. Antonio acted as the head of the family and warmly greeted each of them, exuding gentlemanly charm.

After almost all the immediate relatives had greeted him except for his twenty-two-year-old daughter, Antonio couldn't help but ask his brother beside him, “Marko, where's Jilian?”
