Chapter 5 - Marcus Attempts to Justify His Secret Corporate Conspiracy

Marcus coughed against the cold marble floor as the bodyguards kept their heavy boots pressed firmly down.
“You never gave me the respect I deserved, Rocco! I built half this empire for you!” Marcus shouted.
“You built a house of cards on greed and treason, Marcus,” Rocco replied without a hint of emotion.
“The board members were tired of your old-fashioned leadership and your mafia ties!” Marcus spat out bitterly.
Rocco let out a cold, humorless laugh that echoed off the high vaulted ceilings of the historic venue.
“My family built this syndicate through honor and blood, things you could never possibly comprehend,” Rocco stated.
“And now you’ll spend the rest of your natural life rotting in a federal penitentiary.”
Marcus thrashed weakly against the guards, realizing his career, wealth, and freedom were entirely gone.
The elite socialites of Manhattan watched in stunned silence as the drama unfolded before their eyes.
