Chapter 134: Announcement

Cage stood at the podium, facing a sea of reporters and cameras, his demeanor composed yet tinged with a hint of gravity. He adjusted the microphone, the room falling into a hushed silence, anticipation palpable in the air.

"Ladies and gentlemen, esteemed members of the press," Cage began, his voice steady and commanding, "I regret to inform you of a profound loss to the Falcone family and to the world at large. Charles Falcone, the patriarch of the Falcone empire, has passed away."

Gasps rippled through the room, flashes of cameras capturing the solemn moment. Cage maintained his composure, his words carefully chosen, each syllable weighted with significance.
