Negotiation fails

"Look...we can negotiate and come to a middle ground," Santiago said to Covrado. Although Covrado was carrying the gun, it couldn't be denied that he was equally frightening and foolish. But it was this foolishness of his which was making him a very dangerous enemy currently. He could shoot all three of them and get away with consequence because he had the privilege of being called 'dumb.'

Covrado sneered. As a petty and narrow-minded man, how could he let this woman, who made a fool out of him, get away just like that? 

He was the boss's son. No one ever dared to talk back to him, much less make fun of him. But today because of this woman, he was mocked by the mere foot soldiers and not to mention that smug and lazy Matteo. 

Starting now, he would kill this woman along with her lover and their accomplice to avenge his mocked honor. Yes, they had stained his honor.
