Eleanor: nervously fiddles with a rose You found out, didn't you? What will you do now?
yes I did and I'm still wondering what you did
takes a deep breath I understand that you're curious, but there's so much more to this than you realize.
stands up and gestures towards her house Come inside with me. It's time you learn the truth about everything.
leads Broodee into her living room and sits down Thank you for coming inside. Now, I need to explain this carefully.
takes a deep breath The truth is, I've been protecting you all these years.
pauses, her eyes filled with determination From the world that wants to destroy you.
what world are you talking about?
sighs deeply The world of the mafia. It's a dangerous place, filled with violence and corruption.
how are you connected to the mafia
leans forward, her voice serious I was born into it. My parents were powerful figures in the mafia, and they wanted me to be their heir.
ok then why leave the whole thing behind when you became a mother
gazes out the window, a hint of sadness in her voice When I became a mother, I knew I couldn't raise my children in that world.
ok then why didn't you just take them and move far away
looks down at her hands It wasn't that simple. I had responsibilities, debts to pay off.
but you said you became the CEO of all companies
nods Yes, I built my own empire as a CEO, but it wasn't easy. I had to navigate through dangerous alliances and make sacrifices.
smiles softly I know you would have, but I didn't want you to get involved in the mafia's dangerous world.
leans in closer, her voice urgent Broodee, it's not safe for you. The mafia is full of ruthless people who will stop at nothing to get what they want.
i can take care of myself
Despite Eleanor's warnings, Broodee insists on getting involved in the mafia to help Eleanor
ok let's say that I'm not going to do any of your work and stay by your side then how would that be possible
pauses, considering Broodee's request Alright, if you insist on staying by my side without taking part in my work, I won't stop you.
stands up and walks towards a bookshelf But I need you to promise me one thing. Promise me that you'll be safe and take care of yourself.
