The Romano Mansion had never looked more magnificent.
After months of uncertainty, fear, and whispered rumors about Rafael Romano's condition, tonight marked his official return to the world.
And the entire city knew it.
By late afternoon, the estate looked like something out of a dream.
Crystal chandeliers glittered through the grand ballroom windows.
Luxury cars arrived one after another through the enormous iron gates.
Hundreds of staff members rushed through the mansion preparing every last detail.
The Romano crest decorated the entrance. Fresh white roses and black orchids lined the marble hallways.Security surrounded the entire property because tonight wasn't just a celebration.It was a statement.
The Mafia King had returned and everyone was coming to witness it.
Inside the mansion, Aria barely had time to breathe.
"Make sure those flowers go to the ballroom."
"Check the guest list again."
"The champagne arrangement needs to be moved."
"Have the musicians arrived?"
