Ron Hayes: Steps out of the shadows Well, well, well. Look who's still breathing. Thought you had me buried, huh?
I look at him did you know?
Raises an eyebrow Knew? Knew what, William? That you were plotting my demise? Oh, I was well aware.
I shift uncomfortably if you knew then why did you do nothing?
Smirks Oh, William, you always were a fool. Did you really think I'd just sit back and let you take over?
I remain quiet, looking at him
Steps forward, towering over William You thought you could just eliminate me and take control? How naive are you?
I stand up so what happened to your face?
Grabs William by the collar, his grip tight What happened to my face? You want to know what happened?
Tightens his grip on William's collar, his voice dripping with venom You wanted to know what happened, William? Fine, I'll tell you.
Releases his grip on William's collar, stepping back You know, William, sometimes I wonder how you managed to rise so quickly in the mafia.
Pours himself a glass of fine wine You see, William, the path to power is not an easy one. It requires cunning, strategy, and sacrifices.
Takes a sip of his wine, savoring the taste And you, William, you've always been lacking in those qualities.
William realizes the depth of Ron's knowledge and decides to seek his help to gain true power in the mafia.
I look at him can we continue this conversation in private?
Smirks Oh, William. Always so concerned about your reputation, aren't you? Fine, we'll take this conversation elsewhere.
Leads William to a secluded room Now, William, let's cut to the chase. You want my help, don't you?
