The old godfather was finally discharged from the hospital.

After more than a month of treatment, the old godfather's condition was completely stable and he was able to go home to recuperate. The old godfather was taken back to the Corian Manor.

Hardy visits the old godfather.

The old godfather looked at Hardy and said, "Hardy, I want to thank you again. You stayed in New York for a whole month and a half to help Mike."

"You're welcome. I hope you get better soon." said Hardy.

Hardy didn't expect that he would stay in New York for so long this time. It was raining and snowing in New York on the day he arrived, but now it is spring and flowers are blooming.

But Hardy also gained a lot from this visit.

Help Michael and gain the friendship of the Corrion family.

At the same time,

He created an airline company out of nothing, increased assets by several million, became friends with General Williams, deputy director of the Army Logistics Support Administration, and gained a lieutenant general advisor to HD Security.

"Mr. Vito, I come here to say goodbye to you and prepare to return to Los Angeles," said Hardy.

The old godfather nodded. "You have so many businesses. You should definitely go back and take a look. Hardy, if you need the Corrion Family's help in the future, just call me. I have some friends in New York, the legal community, Washington, and the business community. Maybe I can help you."

The old godfather's network of contacts is the Corrion family's greatest asset. Saying this to Hardy is equivalent to indicating that Hardy can use his network of contacts.

Hardy does need these connections in many areas. His business needs to expand the market. If he has the help of the old godfather, he can save a lot of trouble.

After a family dinner at Corian Manor, Hardy said goodbye and Mike saw him out.

At the gate of the manor, Hadi patted Mike on the shoulder and said, "Although the other families have temporarily stopped, it does not mean that you are safe. You still need to be more careful on weekdays. Call me if there is anything."

Mike smiled and said, "I'll keep an eye on it."

......

Hardy came to the airport with his subordinates. He brought 70 people with him when he came. When he returned, the team had increased a lot, including Lanster and Andy's team, and HD Airlines' new president Franklin, the total number of people has become more than 80 people.

However, this time they will not be chartering a plane, but will be flying back on their own. Franklin has already contacted the Los Angeles Airport and is planning to use Los Angeles as the main airport on the West Coast. This time, 10 planes will be sent there at once.

As for the pilots, they are all borrowed for the time being.

Running an airline is not that simple. There are many things that need to be prepared, such as setting up a management team, recruiting pilots and crew members, recruiting technical personnel, signing contracts with major airports, arranging routes, etc.

There are so many things to do.

But Hardy left all these to Franklin. What's the purpose of recruiting a president? Isn't it to work for yourself?

Hardy was sitting in his own B-29 Flying Fortress. Although it was a bit bumpy and noisy and not very comfortable inside, so what? He just felt good.

The plane arrived at Los Angeles Airport smoothly.

Before getting off the plane, Hardy said to Franklin: "Find the aircraft manufacturer to help me modify the aircraft and change the cabin into a private airliner mode. Also, make the cabin as quiet as possible."

"Okay boss."

This B-29 Flying Fortress is Hardy's personal aircraft, so it must be built to be comfortable. In addition, there is a bomb bay on the belly of the aircraft. What if the pilot accidentally presses the bomb button and throws himself into the Pacific Ocean?

......

Since Ava was not in Los Angeles, Hardy did not go to live with her, but came to his own Beverly Hills mansion.

There are housekeepers and servants here, but Hardy just doesn't like quietness.

After taking a shower, the housekeeper made him some black tea. "Mr. Hardy, the chef asked what you would like to eat."

Hardy shook his head. "Let him do what he wants."

As he spoke, he picked up the newspaper on the table and started reading.

After flipping through a few pages, I saw a report that HD Films announced that it had completed preparations for a new movie and would begin filming soon. The movie was called "Ghost" and many people expressed their anticipation.

This should be a promotional interview for HD Films, the kind that pays the newspaper. It looks like an interview, but it is actually an advertisement.

Hardy thought of the beautiful woman.

I picked up the phone and called Hedy Lamarr. After a few rings, the phone was connected and Hedy's slightly lazy voice came from the receiver.

"Who?"

"It's me."

"Ah, you're back."

"Yes, I just got home."

"If you have time tomorrow, I would like to talk to you about the movie." Heidi said.

Although the film was directed by Nolan, Hardy also assigned a job to Heidi. Hardy had been away for more than a month, and it was estimated that some problems had accumulated for him to make the final decision.

"Why not come over now?" said Hardy.

"Now..." the woman was a little hesitant.

"I'll ask the driver to pick you up." Hardy said somewhat domineeringly.

Soon the driver took Hedy Lamarr to the manor. After dinner, the two took a walk in the garden. Hardy told Heidi that he didn't come here often. Heidi was a little surprised, "The house is so beautiful, why don't you live here?"

“Too quiet.”

"Then find a hostess and have some children, and then this place will become lively," said Heidi.

Hadi shook his head. "I never plan to get married in my lifetime."

Heidi was surprised. "Why?"

"Because I don't want there to be just one hostess here, but a woman in every room," Hardy said with a bad smile.

"How many rooms do you have here?" asked Heidi.

"32 in total."

Hedy Lamarr was surprised and said, "You are so philandering that you want to find 32 women."

"The true nature of a man."

night,

Hedy Lamarr did not go back.

Hardy said he didn't like being alone and asked the woman to stay with him.

The two chatted until very late.

The next day, Hardy called Elizabeth Taylor and spent another day playing with little Lori. When the little girl came back, her lips were slightly red.

While Hardy was enjoying his quiet life, a series of major events occurred in Sicily, New York and Las Vegas.

......

Sonny killed Bruno, the son of Philip, the patriarch of the Tattaglia family. Philip was unwilling to let it go and kept instigating other families to take action against the Corrion Family.

On that day, the patriarchs of the four major families gathered together and conspired in the conference room for a whole day, and then started to act separately the next day.

sicily.

Sonny came to Sicily for refuge. This guy was a natural playboy. A few days later, he saw a beautiful woman and used just a few tricks to get her into bed.

The woman's name was very beautiful, Canalis, and she was a rare beauty. Sonny would come to meet her almost every night.

That morning, Sonny said goodbye to Canalis with satisfaction and got into his car and started.

"Bang~!"

Sonny's car exploded into pieces.

Sonny was also blown to pieces.

At the same time.

Mike in New York is getting ready to go to the TV factory.

Before leaving, Hardy told him to be careful of retaliation from other families and not to take it lightly. Mike took this to heart and always had a few bodyguards with him every day.

His bodyguards are all from the Corrion family. They are loyal and have all served in the military. Their fighting ability is no less than that of the people from the security company.

The car drove to a gas station to refuel.

The driver got off.

Just then, a black car stopped next to them and the window rolled down quickly. Mike glanced inside the other car and found four men, all dressed neatly, and their eyes were all fixed on this side.

Mike felt that these people looked at him unkindly.

At this moment,

Several gun barrels were sticking out of the other car's windows.

Mike was shocked and fell to the ground subconsciously.

“Tut, tut, tut~!”

The opponent fired wildly at Mike's car with a machine gun. The bullets instantly blew up the car glass and killed the two bodyguards beside Mike.

Fortunately, the bodyguard on the gunman's side died and fell on top of Mike, taking all the bullets for him.

Mike's driver was under the car at the moment. When he saw this, he immediately pulled out his pistol and shot at the gunman's car.

The driver's shooting was very accurate. He killed two people with a few shots and shattered the windshield. The other driver was startled and immediately stepped on the accelerator and rushed out, quickly disappearing.

"Mr. Mike, Mr. Mike, are you okay?" the driver opened the car door and shouted.

The corpse next to him flipped over, revealing Mike's figure. At this moment, Mike was covered in blood, his eyes full of anger.

He's fine.

But all his bodyguards were dead.

Mike asked the driver to drive away quickly and drive directly back to Corion Manor. Their situation shocked everyone, and they immediately notified Tessio and Clemensa to bring people over.

But at this moment,

The Corian estate received another telegram from Cicely.

Sonny was killed.

When the old godfather heard the news, he was so angry that his body was shaking. He knew that this must have been done by several other big families.

......

las vegas.

The Flamingo Casino is now closed, but the lights are still on here.

Siegel insisted on his ideal. He always believed that as long as he turned Flamingo into a resort with complete facilities, it would definitely become a holiday paradise for wealthy people and he would make a lot of money.

He used his remaining shares as collateral to borrow $2 million from Hardy. After the money came back, he was anxious to hire workers and continued to build the Flamingo Casino.

Siegel is gambling.

Bet on yourself to succeed.

He also firmly believed that he could succeed.

After Siegel sold his mansion in Los Angeles, he bought another mansion on the edge of downtown Las Vegas. Although it is not as luxurious as Beverly Manor, it is still luxurious.

That day, after inspecting the progress of the project, he and Fred drove back to the manor. It was already June and the weather was getting hotter. After returning, Siegel took a shower and changed into a comfortable bathrobe.

His woman Virginia was not in Las Vegas, but was attending a party with friends.

Virginia is an uneasy woman, but Siegel just likes her. It can only be said that it is fate.

In the living room.

Siegel and Fred were chatting about things and discussing how to open the casino once it was ready. He had come up with a lot of ideas and it was sure to be a hit this time.

At this moment,

Suddenly, two gunshots were heard at the door.

Fred and Siegal were shocked.

The door was suddenly kicked open and several gunmen rushed in.

If they were going out, they might have brought weapons with them, but this was home and there were bodyguards outside, so they had no weapons at all.

“Bang bang bang~ bang bang bang~!”

There was a burst of crisp gunfire.

Sigurd and Fred were both lying in a pool of blood.

Siegel, the underground king of the West Coast, died tragically on the spot, and Fred, the boss of the Los Angeles Jewish gang, also turned into a corpse.

When the gunmen saw the two men fall to the ground, they stepped forward and shot them two more times. They left only after they were sure they were dead.

......

Los Angeles.

After dinner, Hardy and Andy were chatting about several businesses when they received a call from Henry.

"Boss, I just got some urgent news."

"What news? How many?"

"Sonny was killed in a car bomb in Cissili."

Hardy was startled and was killed by a car bomb. The original plot of The Godfather was that Mike went to Sicily for refuge, and the enemy chased him and set up a car bomb, but it didn't kill him but killed Mike's bride. Mike escaped the disaster.

This time it was Sonny who went to Sicily and was killed in a bombing on the spot. It seems that Sonny really does not have the fate to be the protagonist.

"Any more news?"

"On the same day, Mike was assassinated. A group of gunmen ambushed Mike at a gas station. Fortunately, his driver reacted quickly and shot back. The gunmen escaped. Mike was not injured, but his two bodyguards were all killed." Henry said.

Hardy was shocked.

Being ambushed at a gas station, isn't this Sonny's ending? Fortunately, Mike has the halo of the protagonist, otherwise he would have lost a good friend.

"Boss, there is another piece of news. This evening, Mr. Siegel and Boss Fred were attacked by a group of gunmen who broke into their home and were shot dead in the living room."

This time Hardy was really shocked.

"You said Siegal was dead?"

"Fred is dead too!"

Hardy asked.

"Yes, Boss. Sigurd and Fred are both dead."

Hardy sighed in his heart. It seemed that Siegel still couldn't escape the fate of being shot.
