Tony stayed silent, still fiddling with his antique.
Manny turned to Susan.
Susan read the papers, wearing her reading glasses. Sensing Manny’s gaze, she replied indifferently, “Manny, you should know that I have never interfered with the family affairs. It’s not like this is in my power.”
During her younger days, she put up with Tony’s affairs. Now that Manny had taken over from Tony, she finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel.
However, Susan remained discreet at home since Tony was still alive.
Tony was a cold-blooded monster.
Susan did not want to be killed at her age.
“I’m up there in years now. I don’t have the energy to deal with these matters. I’m sure there’s nothing you can’t do at your age.
“You’re not a child anymore. You’re the head of the Longbottoms. Sure, you might only hold an acting position, but you’re still the leader. Show what you got and command some respect.
“It’s not about brute force at this age. It takes wits and wisdom to succeed, or people won’t have your back.
“It’s not like you can earn loyalty by killing those who don’t respect you.”
Susan did not even meet Manny’s gaze when expressing her opinion.
Tony was able to pull off the coup to kill the previous family head because the direct lineage had dwindled. All Tony had to do was kill that family.
