Chapitre 69: Leandro Joins the La Cosa Nostra

Meanwhile, in Maharlika, news about Senator Ramon's involvement with Leandro's drug cartel spread like wildfire. The old Senator was also captured by the police and with the strong evidence of his crime, he was bound to face a heavy punishment. The old Senator's subordinates who were involved in the drug trade were also detained by the police.

The citizens who once received the Senator's help were saddened by the news. The people's trust in the government declined and many activists even protested in front of the Malacañang Palace, the official residence and workplace of the President. 

At this moment, the current President of Maharlika, President Ferdinand Maracas Jr., was in a meeting with his trusted aides.

"Mr. President, what should we do now? The police have already captured Senator Ramon. That old man might sell us out!" A middle-aged man with spectacles muttered in a grim voice.
