Chapter 28 - THE WHISPERS OF THE UNDERWORLD
Far away from the glittering lights of Chicago and Manhattan, deep within an undisclosed underground bunker in Eastern Europe, a secret meeting took place.
A group of shadowy syndicate leaders watched news footage of Marcus Vance reclaiming his corporate throne on international television.
"Marcus Vance survived the poison, destroyed Arthur Sterling, and purged his entire estate in less than two weeks," a gruff voice spoke from the shadows.
"He thinks he has won because he defeated local rats and corrupt corporate raiders," another voice sneered coldly.
A scarred hand slid a dossier across a heavy steel table, revealing classified intelligence files marked with red top-secret stamps.
"Marcus Vance controls the Midwest, but he knows nothing about the global cartel network that really pulls the financial strings."
"Then it's time to send a message he cannot ignore, one that reaches past his bodyguards and hits him where it hurts most."

The screen in the dark bunker flickered off, leaving only the ominous glow of a single red indicator light blinking in the quiet room.
