The Mafia Heiress's Comeback: She's More Than You Think novel Chapter 354

Chapter 354 Taking Over

Four Cities

“Alright.” Carl had no room to argue.

Even within the Williams family, Shawn’s authority had limits. His own two brothers openly defied him, challenging his rule without the slightest hesitation.

Just then, Carl’s phone buzzed. A message from Shawn blinked on the screen. “Agree with her.”

In three succinct words, Carl understood everything.

“I agree,” Carl told Maren.

Something in Maren’s earlier remarks struck a nerve. Removing her from Sawyer’s side would surely ignite his

fury.

Anyone wielding arms superior to the Williams family likely had a serious military foundation. They couldn’t afford to provoke such power. Letting Sawyer have two cities through Maren was a tactical advantage.

“Then it’s decided, I’ll have my people begin the takeover of Criala’s four cities.” Having sealed the deal, Maren stood with quiet confidence, signaling the end of the discussion.

“Okay… Wait!” Carl had a swift change of heart and called out to stop Maren before she could leave.

“What is it?” Maren suspected another message had come through from Shawn.

And she was right.

Carl had received another message from Shawn.

He was confidere Maren would chase the bait of power, but he had contingency plans in place–always.

“I see now, Maren might think she’s gaining ground, but we can pull the rug from under her anytime,” Carl stnurmured.

Meanwhile, Maren and Sawyer strolled along the city streets.

Maren called Simon to draft the paperwork. When Simon learned of the unexpected acquisition of four cities he nearly burst with excitement.

“You’re incredible, Ms. Morgent Simon exclaimed, doing into his task with zeal

“Have you thought about how challenging it will be to take control of the Williams family’s four cities?” As they strolled side by side, Sawyer turned to Maren, his voice thoughtful
