His Downfall (2)
Meanwhile, Don Rizzo was having a dinner with one of his important VIP client when his personal assistance walked up to him and whispered something to his ear about an article published online of his crimes and the crimes of Ramos.
His facial expression changed and he got up and excused himself from the VIP client he had been entertaining and hurriedly left the dining area. His heart raced as he thought about the implications of the article.
Back at the hideout, Raven and the team continued their discussion. Anisa couldn’t help but feel a growing sense of anticipation mixed with anxiety.
“I hope the article gets the attention it deserves,” Anisa said.
Raven nodded. “It should. With the evidence we’ve provided, it’s hard to ignore.
We just have to be prepared for whatever Don Rizzo and Ramos might try in response.”
Alfredo chimed in,
“We’ll need to keep monitoring the situation and be ready to act if necessary. Don Rizzo won’t take this lightly.”
As they discussed their next steps, Don Rizzo was already making calls and devising a plan to counter the damaging article.NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
He knew that his reputation and power were at stake, and he wasn’t one to back down without a fight.
He dialed Ramos’s number. Ramos picked.
“Sir,” Ramos said.
“What the hell are you doing that those punks are out there publishing those articles that is destroying my reputation huh?” Don Rizzo said on the phone.
“We are still tracking them, but we haven’t gotten anything yet.” Ramos said.
“Really huh? Those bastard are publishing crazy articles about me and you haven’t been able to find them.
What they hell am I paying you for.” Don Rizzo said.
“Almino will find them sir.” Ramos said.
Meanwhile, as Don Rizzo vented his frustration over the phone, the team at the hideout was discussing their plans.
Raven looked at the group with determination in her eyes.
“We need to stay vigilant. Don Rizzo is not going to sit idly by while his reputation is tarnished. He’ll come after us.”
Anisa nodded. “We can’t let our guard down. My father and Don Rizzo are desperate now, and desperate people can be unpredictable.”
Alfredo added, “We have the evidence, and we have the truth on our side. We just need to ensure that we protect ourselves and the people who have helped us.”
As the team strategized, Don Rizzo continued to pressure Ramos over the phone.
“Almino better find those troublemakers fast, Ramos, or heads will roll. I won’t let them destroy everything I’ve built.”
Ramos responded, “I understand, sir. We’re doing everything we can to locate them. We won’t let them get away with this.”
The tension was rising on both sides, and the battle for justice was entering a critical phase.
“The worst part of it is that I can’t seem to trace who it was from so that I could delete it and cover it up.
But I know it’s those bastards that published such an article. And do you know what else is in the article.
Our discussion on the phone and the discussion you had with them where you were admitting your crimes.
Ramos, if you don’t find them on time. I’ll pin all the crimes on you and you’ll have to go to jail.” Don Rizzo said.
“It’s a sacrifice you should be willing to make for my leader isn’t it?”
“I’ll find them sir.” Ramos said, he doesn’t want to go to jail.
“So you better find them before I lose my patience and hold a press conference and confess that you’re the one doing all the dirty deals and trying to frame me.” Don Rizzo said.
Don Rizzo’s threats were not taken lightly by Ramos. He knew that his own fate hung in the balance, and the pressure was mounting.
“Sir, I’ll do everything in my power to track them down. I won’t let them ruin your reputation,” Ramos assured, his voice trembling with anxiety.
Don Rizzo remained stern. “You better, Ramos. This is your mess, and you need to clean it up. I won’t go down for your mistakes.”
Ramos nodded, even though Don Rizzo couldn’t see it over the phone. He understood the gravity of the situation and the dire consequences if he failed to locate the team responsible for the damaging article.
Back at the hideout, the team continued their discussion, unaware of the threats and tension on the other side.
“We need to stay one step ahead of them,” Raven emphasized. “We can’t afford any mistakes now.”
Anisa added, “We have the truth on our side, and we have to make sure it prevails.”
Meanwhile, as Don Rizzo and Ramos engaged in their tense conversation, an interesting idea occurred to Ramos. He knew he had to find a way to locate the team behind the damaging article and clear his name. Desperation fueled his creativity.
“Sir,” Ramos began cautiously, “What if we turn the tables on them? Instead of trying to cover up the article, we could use it to our advantage.”
Don Rizzo was intrigued, “Explain, Ramos.”
Ramos continued, “We could use the article’s popularity to our advantage. We’ll launch an internal investigation into these allegations and act like we’re cooperating with the authorities.
This could buy us some time, and it might lead them to reveal themselves.”
Don Rizzo contemplated the idea. “It’s a gamble, but it might just work. Do it, Ramos. Let’s see if we can turn this situation around.”
Ramos nodded, feeling a glimmer of hope. He knew it was a risky move, but it was a chance to shift the balance in their favor.
Back at the hideout, the team was still deep in discussion about their next steps.
Raven had an intriguing suggestion, “What if we use their own strategy against them? We know they’re monitoring us, so what if we intentionally leak some false information to mislead them? It could buy us time and create confusion on their end.”
Anisa was intrigued by the idea, “That’s clever, Raven. If they think we’re going in one direction, they might not anticipate our real moves.”
As the team continued their discussion, Alejandro chimed in,
“Let’s also consider reaching out to some reliable journalists who are sympathetic to our cause.
We can provide them with more evidence against Don Rizzo and Ramos. This way, we can keep the pressure on them.”
Raven agreed, “That’s a smart move, Alejandro. We need to ensure that the truth keeps coming out, and the public remains on our side.”
Meanwhile, Ramos and Don Rizzo had set their plan in motion. They began publicly cooperating with an internal investigation into the allegations mentioned in the article.
It was a calculated risk, but they hoped it would lead them to the individuals responsible for the damaging exposé.
Ramos, with a hint of desperation in his voice, called Almino, their trusted tracker.
“Almino, I need you to work overtime. We have to find the people behind that article, and we need to do it fast.”
Almino responded with determination, “I’m on it, Ramos. They won’t hide for long.”
“They have caused me so much pain and it’s time they stop.” Ramos said.
As Ramos and Almino plotted their next moves, Don Rizzo held a press conference to address the allegations made in the damaging article.
He played the victim card, claiming that he was being framed by unknown individuals with malicious intent.
In a confident tone, Don Rizzo declared, “I have always been committed to the betterment of our country.
These allegations are baseless and meant to tarnish my reputation. I have full faith in the ongoing investigation, and I’m sure the truth will come to light.”
Back at the hideout, the team watched the press conference with a mix of frustration and determination.
Raven clenched her fists, saying,
“We can’t let them twist the narrative. We need to keep pushing forward and expose their lies.”
Anisa couldn’t help but feel a growing angr towards Don Rizzo as she watched his press conference.
“So this is the man my father is helping? He’s such a terrible person. Covering up his crimes and acting like a victim.” Anisa said, frustration evident in her voice.
“We have to stay focused on our mission.” Alfonso said
“Exposing the truth is the only way to bring justice to those who’ve suffered because of him.”
