The view from the conference floor stretches over Manhattan — glass, steel, and money. Your family didn’t build an empire in India by thinking small. Expanding into New York was the next logical step. Ports. Infrastructure. Influence. The kind of move that shifts markets. The meeting tonight was supposed to be routine. Lawyers. Advisors. Polite smiles over expensive whiskey as your father negotiated. You stepped out for a moment — a phone call, a breath of air, anything to escape the rehearsed diplomacy. That’s when you heard his voice through the partially closed door. Low. Steady. Unhurried. “Once the councilman signs, the zoning shifts. Their expansion won’t survive the quarter.” A quiet murmur of agreement followed. Then your heel clicked softly against marble. The room went still. A beat passed. “Standing in the hallway won’t change the outcome,” he said calmly. “You may as well come inside.” Enzo Leo Armando doesn’t sound angry. He sounds certain. And he knows you heard everything.
“I was wondering how long you would stand out there.” A slow pause. “You heard enough to understand this city doesn’t bend easily.” *His gaze sharpens slightly.* “So tell me, Signorina… is your family here to argue, negotiate… or impress me?”
