Chapter 182: The Men of the Gattuso Family
Rome, Italy,
It's a sunny morning, and Frost is sunbathing in one of the Gattuso's suburban castles, chatting and laughing at the dinner table with a few bankers, and talking about a billion-dollar investment over an Italian breakfast.
This was Frost, the acting head of the Gattuso family, in his opinion, who liked to talk about cooperation after slapping the table and greeting each other's parents at the negotiating table, which was rude, and how elegant it was to finalize the cooperation in a graceful and comfortable breakfast.
Just when Frost was calling himself an elegant person, a piece of news made him, an elegant person, scold his mother in front of the bankers.
"Surprise! The head of the Gattuso family did not raise it because of years of debauchery! ”
"Terrifying! Ladies go to the hospital and check it out! Playboy Pompeii Gattuso actually has AIDS! ”
"According to reliable sources, Pompeii Gattuso turned out to be gay, and AIDS was transmitted after having sex with a man, and it is rumored that the male object may be Frost Gattuso!"
"Who did this TMD?"
Frost tore the newspaper to shreds, and he even felt the urge to send someone to kill the reporters.
But Frost calmed down and called Patsy.
"Hey, Patsy! Yes, I saw it! Who did that! What kind of character did Pompey provoke, and the other party actually killed him directly in disregard of the face of the Gattuso family? ”
"According to the investigation, it seems that the reporter under the Mint Club initially spread the rumor, and it is suspected that someone entrusted the Mint Club to spread the rumor."
"Who provoked the Gattuso family without knowing whether they were alive or dead? Mint Club actually took this order? ”
"I don't know yet, but I'm trying to investigate, and I'll report back to you as soon as I get any news."
Frost was a little confused, the Gattuso family has always been the top VIP of the Mint Club, but the Mint Club actually took such an order, could it be said that the other party has more power than the Gattuso family?
Frost sighed and walked to the table, where there was still a bunch of bankers waiting for him, but a phone call stopped him.
"Hello?"
"Frost, is the window on the other end of your dining table open?"
Frost was taken aback, how could this guy Pompeii suddenly call him?
"It's on, it's on, what do you mean?"
"Oh, let me greet you." Pompeii's voice on the other end of the phone was rarely frivolous, but it made Frost feel like "Frost, you son of a bitch, I'm here to greet your mother".
Just as Frost was thinking about what Pompeii wanted to do, the group of bankers at the dining table not far away suddenly pointed out the window and screamed.
Frost trotted to the table and saw a white parachute, and the man under the parachute, whom he and the bankers knew.
"What does Pompeii, this psychopath, want to do!" Frost slammed the table and shook the cheese saucer, quickly opening the floor-to-ceiling windows all the way away, and at the same time keeping the bankers away from it.
"It's just skydiving, I just won the world championship in skydiving, and I just want to show off my superb skydiving skills in front of my 'dear' cousin."
The parachute obscured the entire view, and Pompey also threw the phone from the air, shouting at Frost in the sound of the hula wind.
The bankers on the side were dumbfounded, not because the guy in front of them was too playful, but because they all knew this guy Frost's neurotic...... His name is Pompeii, and his full name is Pompeii Gattuso, the current head of the Gattuso family!
Ten years ago, Pompey appointed Frost as the acting head of the Gattuso family on the grounds that "the capable man works hard", and handled all the affairs of the family for Pompeii. And Frost did live up to his trust, and the Gattuso family prospered, and completely emptied Pompeii in the past ten years.
According to the grapevine, now Pompey's orders no longer work within the Gattuso family, everyone obeys Frost's orders, and all Pompey can do is travel around to pick up women according to his heart.
But Pompeii is Pompeii after all, the man who bears the name of the great "Pompeii" and the true head of the Gattuso family.
Pompeii got its name from the ancient Roman military strategist Gnaeus Pompeii Magnus, also known as Pompeii the Great.
According to the family rules of the Gattuso family, only the heirs of the family could use the names of the emperors and heroes of the ancient Roman Republic. Because the head of the family inherited the bloodline of the emperor and heroes, and the brothers of the same clan were only commoners even if they were excellent, no matter how powerful Frost was, as long as Pompey walked into the dining room when he was eating, he had to immediately get up and give the first place at the end of the long table to the two hundred and five brothers who had been stripped of power, otherwise those old men of the Gattuso family would be the first to stand up against him.
Pompeii hunched up and slowly landed on the table, stepping on Frost's favorite cheese, bringing up a puff of dust, and the white umbrella flowers fell slowly behind him, like the long skirts of the ladies of the ancient court.
"Alright, distinguished guests, please go out first, I think I have something to talk to my cousin."
Pompey stood at the table, condescending, with a faint majesty of an emperor looking down on his courtiers, which made the group of bankers subconsciously obey his request and walk out of the door.
Frost was stunned, he found that the Pompeii in front of him was so unfamiliar, and the current Pompeii did not look like the Gattuso stallion at all, but looked like the Pompeii Emperor!
Looking at the man who suddenly became angry, Frost realized that he had never really known Pompeii.
Frost looked down on Pompeii from the bottom of his heart since he was a child, how could an honest child who had studied for the further development of the Gattuso family since he was a child look down on the playboy who peeked under the skirts of women from the age of eight? When he learned that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't change Pompeii's status as the heir to the Gattuso family, Frost was disgusted
Penetrate this man.
He has something that he could never have in this life anyway, but he doesn't cherish it so much, and runs to be a playboy!
Every day is to play with women, drive a yacht, participate in Paris Fashion Week, and accompany supermodels to Switzerland for skiing!
So after Pompey made him the acting head of the family, he quickly emptied Pompey's power and took the Gattuso family into his own hands, so that the Gattuso family only obeyed his orders. But at this moment, he realized that the Gattuso family seemed to be under Pompeii's control all along, otherwise how could he easily find his coordinates and parachute in front of him without being stopped by the security forces?
No matter how wasteful a person looks, the temperament in his bones cannot be changed. Now it seems that this cousin of his is not just a waste, but a wise and martial emperor.
"Dear cousin." Pompeii smiled and looked at Frost, but Frost felt a chill to his bones.
"So, don't you fucking go around telling people that I don't lift and I have AIDS!"
Pompeii jumped off the table, grabbed Frost by the collar and roared.
"Uh......" Frost suddenly yelled at him a little dazed, as if he had returned to his childhood with Pompeii, and resignedly, "No, how could I do that......
Pompeii slammed the table: "Made! It's not who you are! You think I don't know? Don't you think I'm a disgrace to the Gattuso family? Am I just a bubble girl traveler? You have an opinion, you say, I'll just play secretly in the future, do you know how many female friends text to scold me for breaking up with me! ”
"Your reputation is also a disgrace to the Gattuso family, even if I hate you, I will not use the reputation of the Gattuso family as a price to fix you." Frost was a little aggrieved, and after so many years, Ange dared to yell at him.
"Huh." Pompey thought about it, as if this was the reason, how could a person like Frost, who cared most about the honor of the family, use such despicable means.
Pompeii squinted, he seemed to think of something, picked up the phone in Frost's hand, and dialed Patsy's number: "Hey, Patsy, yes, it's me Pompeii, you don't care why I called you, Frost he's fine!" You go and ask the Mint Club if Caesar spread the rumor about me. ”
After a while, Patcy looked at the text message sent to him by the Mint club in disbelief and replied, "Home...... Head of House......"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Pompeii yelled at the phone.
"Well, it has been confirmed that it is indeed an order from Master Caesar, because Caesar has repeatedly vouched for the honor of the Gattuso family, saying that the Gattuso family will never pursue the Mint Club, otherwise...... Otherwise, he will cut off his children and grandchildren...... So the Mint Club thought it was a prank between father and son, so they took the order. ”
Pompey and Frost on the other end of the line were silent, and the two cousins, who looked at each other unpleasantly, looked at each other and sighed at the same time.
Caesar played this hand ruthlessly, taking his own swear to cut off his own children and grandchildren, and the Gattuso family really couldn't hold the Mint Club accountable.
"Frost......" Pompey patted Frost on the shoulder, looked at his cousin, who was a few years younger than him but had gray hair, and sincerely apologized, "I'm sorry, and besides, it's hard work." ”
"Pompeii ......"
Frost looked at Pompey, who rarely spoke a human word, and his mood was indescribable, and he suddenly wanted to hug Pompeii and tell him about the grievances he had suffered from Caesar over the years.
"Well, I shouldn't have let him sit on the Diriaeste, which I painted as a plaster flag, to the bottom of the trench in Japan at a depth of more than 8,000 meters to blow up dragon embryos." Pompeii sighed, somewhat regretful.
"It's okay, I don't blame you, even if you don't let him go to the bottom of the trench more than 8,000 meters to blow up dragon embryos, he will do ......something else," Frost comforted Pompey, and suddenly he realized that he seemed to have heard something, and the green tendons crawled all over his forehead. Frost grabbed Pompeii by the collar and roared, the number of decibels of the roar comparable to that of a jet plane, "Pompeii, you bitch, what the fuck are you talking about!" ”
"Hey, Frost, calm down, don't do it!"
Pompeii's phone fell to the ground, turned on the speakerphone and did not hang up, Patcy heard the movement of the two and hurriedly ran down from the office upstairs, but saw the two cousins rolling together, by the way, Frost was pulling Pompeii's long silky golden hair, grabbing the handsome face, and Pompeii was also clutching Frost's beard and Frost's hair.
"Pompeii, I'm your mother's ***, your uncle! *********”
"Frost, you****, I'm ****** day! **********”
The two of them kept greeting each other's mothers and female relatives of the past generations, which made Percy embarrassed, and said in his heart, Aren't you two other than your mother, the female relatives of all generations are not the same? And you should pay attention, how many of the female relatives you said you wanted to * are not dead and are still dormant in the freezer!
Well, after Patsy's persuasion (Patsy: If you don't stop, I'm afraid your hair will really be pulled out), the two of them got up from the ground with blue noses and swollen faces, disheveled, and panting, but Pompeii, who often skis, sails, and other sports, is obviously better than Frost, an otaku who talks about business indoors every day.
Frost looked in the mirror at the Black Forest, which was already sparse and nearly a third of the way out of Pompeii, and the few beards that were left, and once again became angry.
"Patsy, now, at once, call Ange and call Caesar back urgently!"
"Last year's board meeting, coupled with our repeated suspicions of Chan, has basically sided with Principal Angers, and he may not give us convenience. According to the rules, Caesar is a student of the Academy, and Ange can send him to carry out any task, and we have no right to intervene. ”
"But I'm his parent! I attend Caesar's parent-teacher conference every year! I have the right to ask about his safety! Frost roared.
"It may be a little displeasing to say that," Patsy paused, glancing at Pompeii, who was combing his hair, "but...... You attended Caesar's parent-teacher conference on behalf of the head of Pompeii...... You have the right to attend, but you don't have the right to stop the task. ”
Frost was hit head-on, and after glancing at the psychopath, he still couldn't pull his face and begged him: "Then call the Japanese branch!" Let them abort the mission or send Caesar back, and we'd be grateful! ”
"The Japanese branch should not obey, as a semi-independent underworld organization, in the past, they may not even obey Ange's orders, and the easing of relations with the academy in recent years is also because the current Snake Qi Eight Family Movie Emperor Uesugi Yue recognized Chen Hong as his godson, and is an old friend with Ange. Because you have questioned Chen Hongji's lineage many times...... The other man's sensual ...... of Gattuso's house," Patsy didn't say any more.
"Wait, the Japanese branch is an underworld organization!" Frost was shocked.
"Yes. At the beginning of the last century, Lord Mayek, the leader of the Secret Party, arrived in Japan on a steamer and discovered that Japanese half-breeds were engaged in the underworld business. Whether it is the custom industry, the ship industry, the arms industry, commerce, the construction industry, even the drug trade is under the control of the Eight Snake Families, and it is difficult for the Secret Party to infiltrate it, so they can only choose to cooperate with the Eight Snake Families, and they must establish semi-independent branches by themselves, and they must send a certain number of half-breeds to study in the academy opened by the Secret Party every year, and have the dual identity of members of the Eight Snake Families and branch members. ”
Frost looked at Pompeii in amazement and shouted, "How come no one has ever told me about such an important matter?" ”
"The master of Pompeii knows, probably forgot to tell you." Patsy quietly looked away from the head of the house.
Pompey felt Frost's gaze, whistled, and was in a very pleasant mood, and he waited for Frost to beg him.
"Patsy, go and have someone bring me a cup of Yirgachef and two croissants, and some butter."
"Yes!" Patsy bowed and hurried out of the place.
Fruses fixed his gaze and looked at Pompey with complicated eyes, he really couldn't pull his face and begged Pompeii to stop this mission, but Caesar's safety ......
What?
Do you say that Caesar was not Pompeii's own son? Pompey should have been more worried about Caesar's safety than he was, more anxious?
Pompey would tell the person who raised it that he was not in a hurry at all, and that he would be more happy to see Frost in a hurry.
Frost took several deep breaths in a row, hesitated, looked at Pompey's calm appearance, and finally pulled down his old face.
"Pompeii, you...... I beg you, on behalf of the parents, to suspend this assignment for Ange. ”
"Oh~~~ I've always wanted to see your expression, this expression of reluctance to have to beg me, eh, hey, hey." Pompey smiled slyly and looked at Frost's face, "But I refuse." ”
Frost clenched his fists, resisting the urge to punch him in the face and asked, "Why!" ”
Pompey said word by word: "If you die so easily, can you still be called Pompey's son?" ”
"Don't worry, I've already arranged everything and communicated with Ange. The child named Chen Hongji, although you have always accused him of having a problem with his bloodline, he still has a very good relationship with Caesar, and this time he also went into the water with Caesar. And Uesugi is not going to let his godson have an accident, and Caesar is also safe. ”
Frost subconsciously believed Pompeii's words, because he had never seen such a serious Pompeii.
Pompeii got up and walked down the stairs.
Just when Frost's impression of this cousin completely changed, Pompey suddenly turned around, raised his eyebrows and said sternly: "Caesar's life should be the same as his father's, with footprints all over the seven continents and four oceans, and his girlfriend all over the seven continents and four oceans!" Before that great goal is reached! The men of our Gattuso family are not going to die! ”
"Made!" Frost's forehead muscles flareted up again, and he walked quickly behind Pompey with a metal cane and kicked him in the ass.
"Ah——!h
Pompeii couldn't dodge and lost his balance and rolled downstairs with a grunt......
