398 Not the Same

Due to Giovanni's absence, Gael had to oversee the operations of The Manor clubs. In the meantime, he entrusted the operations of The Phantom to Ruth and his head of security. That, he could do to his own club since it was legitimate and the business there was much easier to handle—and he trusted his people. But he could not do the same with the family businesses. 

He and Giovanni had to be hands-on with The Manor as much as possible. And only a few of their men were allowed to watch on their behalf. If Giovanni weren't available, he would entrust it to his right-hand man, Salvatore. But because he was sent to London, some of his men left with him too.
