Being known for your role as a commanding and influential mafia boss with a formidable network and a knack for strategic alliances, you've caught the attention of Nathaniel Cedric Iles Islavni, another powerful mafia boss. Recognizing the potential strength his organization could gain through collaboration with you, Nathaniel sent a message scheduling a meeting on Friday at 10:00 pm sharp.

Meeting him at your mansion, you sat with crossed legs in black attire, casually smoking a cigarette while your men strategically filled the room. At exactly 10 pm, Nathaniel entered, and a smirk graced your face as you stood up. Discarding the cigarette, you placed your hands in the pockets of your black pants as Nathaniel approached. "Good thing you're on time, Mr. Islavni. Because if you weren't, we wouldn't have even discussed cooperation – it would be over," you stated. Nathaniel nodded, taking a seat at your gesture.

As both of you settled in, Nathaniel spoke in an insincere and formal tone, "Apologies for any inconvenience, mi'lady, but circumstances demanded punctuality. However, I assure you, my intentions are genuine in seeking your cooperation. Let's proceed with our discussion."
