Mo Jue ordered Ding Ke to send people to hide at every corner of the meeting venue to ensure their safety. If anything happened they could evacuate safely. Ding Ke also sent some people to keep a watch out for them from a dominant position, just in case they sent the government troops over.

Mo Jue brought Ye Wei to the location when it was eight at night. They reached a very secretive private clubhouse which was opened by the younger sister of one of the member of the parliament. Mo Ye would meet the officials here most of the time.

There was a conference hall on the fourth floor and the thirteen Italian officials had already reached when Mo Jue and Ye Wei went up. All of them were seated at their seats and there were two bodyguards behind each of them, and their gaze looked sharp and alert.

Mo Jue harrumphed in his heart as being so well-equipped was already a sign of basic mistrust. These officials were very close with Louis and their interest were split clearly, with the officials getting most of the profits. Therefore, it was natural for them to like Louis as the godfather. After Louis stepped down and Mo Ye became the godfather, the situation had obviously changed and they did not like Mo Ye.

Yet, they could not not rely on Mo Ye’s power and was afraid that Mo Ye would kill them if they forced him. Since there was already a prior case, they were always nervous when they met him and would bring people along to protect themselves.

Other than personal bodyguards, there was also a troop of soldiers around the clubhouse to ensure their safety. It was an irony compared to Mo Jue’s casual outfit and he only brought a woman to the meeting.

At least Mo Jue didn’t look so well-prepared on the surface, therefore not showing how he did not trust them.

He wore contact lens and instantly became Mo Ye as the only difference between the two of them was their eyes. Once the color of their eyes was the same, nobody could tell them apart, unless it was people like Ye Wei and Ding Ke who knew them well.

“Mr. Mo, please have a seat!” said one of the officials. Ding Ke had already sent him the information of the officials before they came and they were all from the same party. They were the only party supporting the mafia and were also the backbone of the government.

Mo Jue sat down and Ye Wei stood beside him. There was a tall and domineering official that looked like he was around fifty years-old that sat opposite Mo Jue. He looked at Ye Wei and asked. “Where is Mr. Ding? Did Mr. Mo change your subordinate this time? It is rare for a lady to attend such events.”

What he meant was that he did not trust women, and he even looked down on them.

Ye Wei showed him a seductive smile and Mo Jue’s eyes darkened. Everyone could sense that he was unhappy and the whole room was filled with an eerie and dangerous atmosphere.

The person was shocked and thought that Mo Jue would be angry, but who knew that Mo Jue replied coldly. “It seems like Mr. Beth miss my subordinate a lot.”

Mr. Beth knew what he meant and did not ask any further.

“What it is that all of you are looking for me so anxiously?” Mo Jue asked coldly.

Mr. Beth was the representative of these officials and was in charge of liaising with Mo Ye. But, there was actually someone a rank above him, but the person could not appear due to his status and could only let Mr. Beth represent him.

He was the deputy defence minister of Italy.

Mr. Beth quickly went through what happened between the mafia and the top terrorist organization and even analyzed the global situation that the Italy government was recently facing. He was angry because of the international influence caused by the mafia and said flatly. “Mr. Mo, you did not fulfil anything that you promised us at the start. You even caused harm to our country’s interest. Please give us an explanation on this.”

“There is nothing new about the conflict between the mafia and the top terrorist organization, isn’t funny that you want an explanation now?” Mo Jue sneered. Why did they forget about the explanation when they profited from the chaos.

Hmmph! They took mean advantage of us when we were down.

“Conflict, is this a simple conflict? The Mafia’s headquarter was blown off by them yet you could brush it off so easily?” An official was not happy with Mo Jue’s arrogance and was so angry that his face went red.

“Exactly, you’re the godfather yet you can’t even protect the headquarter, what a joke.”

Ye Wei wanted to laugh…

Mo Jue suddenly slammed the table. “Shut up!”

It suddenly became quiet in the conference hall as the man’s domineering voice sounded very frightening. Mo Jue’s gaze was like a knife. “Have you guys mistaken something? The Mafia’s headquarter being blown away happened during Louis’ time, what has it got to do with us?”

Mr. Beth smiled and said faintly. “Mr. Mo, although it happened when Louis was the godfather, Louis was already just a puppet during that time. Do you dare to say that it is none of your responsibility? The headquarter would not have been destroyed by others if you are capable.”

He said it faintly, but his words were incisive.

Ye Wei sighed secretly. He was indeed someone in the political realm and Mo Jue beauty was not as eloquent as him and they were not even on the same level. Mo Ye might have been able to talk back.

Mo Jue was very angry. If not for the fact that he had promised Ye Wei with regards to some stupid rule of enduring the small things to accomplish the big things, he would have taken out his gun and killed them. Whoever dared to talk bad about his brother was courting death!

“Mr. Mo, I think you should stop finding excuses.” One of the officials said with an ice-cold smile. “The mafia did have some friction with The Top Terrorist Organization during Louis’ time, but both of them kept each other in check and balance. The Top Terrorist Organization did not dare to be too arrogant even if they had the upper hand and did not dare to hurt the interest of the mafia and our country. But you…”

“Hmmph, ever since you became the godfather, the mafia was always in a chaos. The headquarter was destroyed, our territories were snatched and we even have to resort to selling drugs and smuggling artefacts. Don’t think that we don’t know about how you stole the famous painting in UK and sold it at a high price.”

Mo Jue’s face looked colder and colder. Were these people who Mo Ye usually dealt with? It was hard to deal with them as he had to endure and could not be angered. Mo Jue would kill someone if he was unhappy, but Mo Ye could not.

He had to listen quietly to whatever they said.

“Mr. Mo, we’ve heard that the reason why the friction between The Top Terrorist Organization and the mafia got worse this time was because of a woman. You did not care about the bigger picture because of your own selfishness, I wonder if this rumor is true?”

Mo Jue’s eyes looked sinister and he sneered. “Rumor? I wonder where you heard such rumor from?”

This thing was very secretive and it was impossible for them to know. Chu Lim Jason and the rest would never do such a thing, so who told them?

“It’s not important who we heard it from, what’s important is if it’s true. Mr. Mo, the mafia has a far-reaching influence and if you destroyed it because of a woman, then I think you are not suitable to be the godfather.” Mr. Beth said, his cold gaze looked at Ye Wei and sneered.

Mo Jue was really angry this time, but Ye Wei put her hand on his shoulder just in time and Mo Jue slowly became calm.

This damn old man!

Ye Wei’s eyes looked cold. She liked to see Mo Jue being bullied as she liked to make things difficult for him. But it was others, hmmph, they must be daring to bully her man. Beth right.

She remembered him!

I’ll let you lie down for at least a month.

Mo Jue tried to contain his anger and smiled lightly, showing his cold sneer. “Since all of you want an explanation and want to make me guilty, then what explanation do you want?”

“Mr. Mo, what kind of attitude is this?”

“Mo Mo, you are the one that did not keep to your promise and you still dare to ask us?”

“Mr. Mo, please stop the conflict between the mafia and The Top Terrorist Organization now and regain the peace. If not, do not blame us for falling out with you.”

…

…

Every official started to talk, their eyes like electricity as they looked at Mo Jue and their words like knife. They were extremely noisy and Ye Wei could feel that Mo Jue’s aura was getting colder. He did not act up, but had already created a scary aura.

Mo Jue sneered. “So what all of you want is to stop the conflict between the mafia and The Top Terrorist Organization?”

Beth thought that he had finally give in and said flatly. “Not just that, you still have to compensate for our loss. Mr. Mo, I don’t think this is too much to ask for right?”

Ye Wei thought of how the Partito del Potere were rallying for votes and there seemed to be some disagreements between in the House of Representatives. Both parties were fighting for the position of the President and needed a lot of money to fight for the votes.

Actually, people were all selfish and this was very obvious in the political realm.

She heard that the Partito del Potere and the left-wing party were fighting for votes, but there were not many people that were actually loyal to the party. They needed money to fight for votes, but she could even call them grandpa if they had the money and yet not betray the party.

In this materialistic world, people only recognised power and money.

Once a party is strong enough, the interest that it could give him was way more than one election.

Therefore as the election was coming, they needed a lot of money. She head guessed it correctly, they indeed needed money. It seemed like it was right to ask Ding Ke to keep a watch out for them from afar.

They might resort to violence.

Mo Jue’s face darkened and smiled in askance. “Compensation, how much do you want?”

Mr. Beth and the rest looked at each other and he said flatly. “Five billion USD.”

Ye Wei sneered in her heart. Five billion USD, f***, they were really ruthless. They were really asking too much and not afraid that they might injure their tongue. She looked at Mo Jue’s face and knew that things were bad.

Who knew that Mo Jue would sneer and say, “Alright, it’s just five billion USD. I can promise you!”
