“Finley and Atlas can’t be trusted,” Dylan warned. “If you believe their lies, once they destroy South City, West End won’t be spared either.”
“Oh? What makes you say that?” Natasha asked with a smile. “Are you suggesting Northern District plans to take over West End as well?”
Before Dylan could respond, Atlas cut in, “Dylan’s just a brute–don’t take his words seriously. Northern District and West End have always maintained peaceful relations, and even if we wanted your territory, we wouldn’t have the strength after dealing with South City. That would be suicide!”
“Mr. Giordano is right,” Finley added smoothly. “In fact, West End stands to gain the most from this. The only reason we’re pursuing this vendetta against South City is because Dylan treacherously killed Mr. Giordano’s lieutenant. Such a betrayal demands justice.”
Their coordinated pitch seemed to sway Natasha, while her lieutenants behind her nodded approvingly.
“Madam, we should stay neutral and let them fight it out,” one whispered.
“We’ll be the real winners in the end,” another added. “Mr. Giordano wants revenge, and clearly, Mr. Moore has a score to settle with Andrew. No matter who wins, West End benefits.”
As Natasha prepared to announce her decision, Dylan’s face darkened, realizing she had fallen for Northern District’s scheme. Finley and Atlas exchanged knowing glances, barely containing their glee.
“Andrew, your support of South City means nothing,” Finley gloated. “You’re a nobody, and South City will fall regardless of what you do.”

statement.
“He’s probably just impressed by our alliance,” Finley smirked.
Atlas laughed and added, “Andrew, you’re quite capable yourself. Why not leave Dylan and join us? While you might not reach Mr. Moore’s status, you could easily become a lieutenant in Northern District.”
Andrew chuckled. “Northern District is too small and crawling with losers. I’m not interested. And regarding Madam Vostokoff’s question, I’m just amazed at how someone can be so easily played for a fool and still seem happy about it.”
Natasha’s expression turned icy. “Mr. Garner, your friend seems to have a death wish, speaking so boldly in my territory. Perhaps he doesn’t plan on leaving West End tonight?”
Dylan tensed up, internally cursing. He could not understand why Andrew would antagonize
