Salvadore was the first to speak, his smiling face looking harmless.

"To be honest, I'm a little surprised to see you here... I heard you were a noble from Victoria, but I didn't know you were also friends with that Sicilian lady."

“…She is a very insightful woman.”

Maria turned her head and looked at Salvatore in front of her, her words full of hints.

Although she had just opened her mouth, Maria instantly realized that what Lady Sicily said was right. This little guy was full of courage and ability.

You have to know that her identity as a Victorian noble was just made up by Lady Sicily this morning to help her out, and almost no one at the venue knew about it.

But Salvadore said it the first time they met...

Maria turned her head and looked at Rob beside her.

But Rob just smiled as usual, and nothing could be seen.

"You seem to know a lot."

Without wasting too much time on the other party, Maria turned her head and looked at Salvatore in front of her.

"I don't know much, I just heard it from some friends at gatherings."

Salvadore also had a smiling face.

"Actually, I'm quite curious. As a noble, why did you come to a family gathering?" He spoke, his eyes slightly opened... Those were a pair of eyes that were extremely similar to Texas's.

But the difference was that Texas' eyes were filled with his own goals, and there was more fire hidden in his eyes. "I heard... Victoria doesn't seem to value our families very much?"

"...I just accepted my friend's invitation as a personal matter, just like I don't like to declare where I come from."

Faced with the other party's naked temptation, Maria was not at all flustered and spoke calmly.

She could see that although this guy knew her identity, he was not as afraid of this identity as Uncle Solo from the Sicilian family. The first thing he thought of was to come over and test her.

Maria's words were impeccable.

Because it matches her actions.

Her sudden appearance, her sudden conversation with Lady Sicily, her sudden appearance at the banquet...all these seemed to be evidence that Maria did not want to publicize her aristocratic status.

But Salvadore obviously won't give up.

"You and Lady Sicily are old friends? That must be an impressive story."

"maybe."

Maria didn't give the other party too many opportunities.

Although this little guy is full of abilities, he is still too immature for Maria who is of a truly high level.

A few simple vague sentences and some ambiguous words avoided the remaining questions from the medium.

Salvatore obviously wanted to confirm whether Maria's noble identity was real, but unfortunately, Maria never gave him this opportunity.

After several attempts, he had to admit that he had met his match.

"You are such a mysterious lady."

He lowered his head and seemed a little dejected.

Meanwhile, Rob finally spoke.

"Mr. Salvadore, several of your friends are waiting for you."

"……I see."

Realizing that his military advisor said they could retreat, Salvatore nodded.

"I hope we can gain your friendship if we ever get the chance."

After saying this, he bowed slightly to Maria and left decisively.

And Rob followed closely behind.

But before he left, he took one more look at Maria.

The complicated look in Maria's eyes made her instinctively realize what plan this cunning wolf was carrying out.

She didn't care about what these people were planning, but she had promised Lady Sicily to protect the child.

It's none of their business what they want to do.

But if things really get out of hand...

Maria narrowed her eyes and silently took a glass of orange-yellow wine from the tray held by the waiter beside her and tasted it.

But fortunately, things did not develop in the worst direction. Salvador Rei just went there to deal with people, moving among different groups of people and communicating with all kinds of people.

From not greeting each other for a long time to meeting again... there are all kinds of situations.

But what can be seen is that he is very good at handling interpersonal relationships. Although everyone has a fake smile on their face, his smile is much more sincere than others.

This is a talent that belongs only to him, and coincidentally, he discovered his talent and made use of it.

Maria could clearly see that many family members secretly revealed to her their family's views on this dinner.

Maria could even hear that several families had expressed their support for the Texas family.

This surprised Maria.

You know, although he has great abilities, there are many capable people in this world.

There are very few people who can truly bring their abilities into play.

Perhaps... this is why Rob, who always hated the choices made by his companions, is now with this child...

Maria was slightly distracted as she thought about it.

And in just these few moments, something strange happened in the venue!

"Oh!"

Salvatore's body flew backwards and hit the dining table beside him hard, and the glass and ceramic products shattered all over the floor.

Such violence immediately attracted everyone's attention.

They looked away.

Soon, the attacker was discovered.

It's the Sicilian family from Syracuse!

Chapter 108: Is This Really an Accident?

The turmoil lasted only a moment.

Before anyone could react, they could see Salvatore's body falling to the ground.

After being stunned for a moment, the few family members he brought with him almost immediately rushed to their head of the family and asked about the situation.

Rob, on the other hand, silently stood between the two sides, showing an obvious attitude of resistance.

"Is this how Sicilian families treat their guests?"

Rob spoke loudly for everyone to hear.

“We came here with good intentions, and this is how we’re treated?”

"Salvatore Ray, the patriarch of our Texas family!"

"Does your attack on him mean that the Sicilian family wants to go to war with the Texas family?!"

Rob's voice was loud and clear, and it quickly pushed the Sicily family to the forefront.

The invited family members around also began to whisper at this time.

"what happened?"

"It seems the Sicilian family beat up the head of the Texas family."

"Ah, well...are they angry because the Texas family took their contract?"

"Even if that's the case, it's not appropriate to take action here, right? Besides, he actually attended the banquet, so he probably didn't intend to swallow it all up. At most, he wanted to exchange some resources from the Sicilian family. That's nothing... Why did he take action?"

"This Sicilian family... isn't it a bit..."

Discussions and questioning voices arose one after another. Although no one explicitly expressed their disgust towards the Sicilian family, their words and deeds revealed their vigilance towards the other party.

After all, anyone with a discerning eye could see that this dinner hosted by the Sicily family was a planned assassination for the Texas family.

But even so, Salvatore Rey, as the head of the family, was still present, which shows that the Texas family wants to take a step back.

Logically speaking, no matter how much they look down on the Sicilian family, they should give the Texas family some face on the surface... After all, the other party is now carrying the family's name.

No matter how weak a family is, it is still a family, not a gang!

But the current situation is clearly not what should be happening.

As to whether this was an accident or simply disdain, thinking that the Texas family had no room to negotiate with them, it still depends on how the Sicilian family will deal with it next.

But unfortunately, now that Lady Sicily is not here, there is no one to take charge of the situation.

All the blame was directed at the Sicilian family spokesperson named Solo.

Just when everyone was closely waiting for his explanation, the fat man named Solo fell silent.

He also stared at his fist blankly, seeming a little confused.

When he turned around, he could see Rob's eyes with a smile standing in front of him.

Scarlet and brutal.

He had no recollection of what had just happened, but he felt his emotions explode in an instant.

Salvadore just said a few words casually...

But for some reason, anger suddenly erupted in his body as if it was out of control.

After a moment's thought, he had already achieved the current result.

What to do next?

His mind was a little confused.

But on the side, the people from the Texas family stood up.

Their eyes were drooping, like angry wolves.

Except for one person who was taking care of the injured Salvatore, everyone else was looking straight at Solo in front of them.

If the other party doesn't give them a reasonable explanation...then they will defend the honor of the Texas family even at the cost of their lives!

Obviously, it would be difficult to get the arrogant Solo to apologize to the Texas family, which was obviously not as powerful as himself.

He just stood there without saying a word, silent.

"I hope you can give a reasonable explanation... Otherwise, we should be able to understand it as a signal that the Sicilian family does not welcome us..."

Rob continued speaking, his words sounding a bit forced.

But Solo on the side frowned.

He didn't understand why the other party would say such words.

Texas is just a family that has just developed and been recognized not long ago.

Although the Sicilian family is not prominent among the other families, it has been famous for a long time.

The collision between the two will inevitably result in a one-sided outcome.

Logically speaking, even if it is just to save face, you should just force him a few times.

But Rob's attitude clearly showed that he wanted to completely break off relations with Sicily...

Where do they get the courage?

Solo fell into deep thought, but in those few moments, he missed the best time to express his opinion.

When the people around saw that the Sicily family did not deny their attitude, their expressions changed.

You know, all the families present here are losers from the battle of Syracuse, but the Sicilian family… they are not.

From this perspective, they are naturally more friendly to the Texas family that developed from Colombia, believing that they are all in the same group, rather than this group of Sicilian families from Syracuse who just want to make arrangements here in advance.

Does this silence mean that the Sicilian family has always intended to break off relations with them?
