章節 657: Abort The Baby - 2

For the first time in her entire life, Adele dreaded coming to the base, coming to see Marcel - the cousin that she had always looked up to and who inspired her. She had hoped to be like him thanks to his bravery in overthrowing his father and his unique leadership so far. 

Unlike the previous leaders of the family so far, Marcel was the most flexible and impartial. She knew that no other person would have taken her as an underboss even if she worked herself to the limit. No matter what, she would always be below a man - no one believed women had major roles in the Mafia except being their wives and mistresses. 

The only woman that had made any substantial difference in the family business was Carmine, Victor's mother. But it was obvious that she had only supported her brother in the first place to take over the family business - a move she regrets - and since then, has been keeping minimal involvement.
