Chapter 71 Certificate of Surrender

After hearing Selina's words, Falcone fell completely silent.

Looking at the silent Falcone, Selina sneered contemptuously, then took the gun she had snatched from the bodyguard and pointed it at Falcone's heart.

Facing the gun muzzle so close, Falcone took a deep breath and then lowered his head and spoke.

"More than 20 years ago, I met your mother. She was as beautiful as you, but had a much better singing voice than you.

I was completely fascinated by her, and we had a passionate affair until she asked me to become the mistress of the Falconet family.

Furthermore, she demanded control of more than half of my gang's businesses.

Only then did I finally free myself from her temptation.

Your mother has never loved me, she just wanted to get more through me. What she wants is not even money, but at least to share all my rights equally with me!

So I made up my mind to dump her and ruin her singing career. She was as naughty as you, Selina. I got my revenge on her and she got her revenge on me.

She secretly kept my child, that is you, and this was her first revenge on me.

Then she became a whore, fucking many men every night, and she even did it in my club, right under my nose!
Do you know how much I love her? I love her madly, and everything I endure for her is proof of that.

No other man could have endured her for as long as I had for thirteen years. No other man.

Can you imagine the humiliation I've endured? I'm Carmine Falconer.

They all call me the King of Gotham, but any man in Gotham can claim that he has fucked the King of Gotham's favorite woman, damn it!!!"

At this point, Falconet's breathing became heavier.

On the opposite side, Selina's right hand couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Falconet just sighed slowly and then shook his head gently.

"Even so, I still watched you grow up little by little. Your mother didn't allow me to get close to you, but I still protected you silently in the dark.

Every man who wanted to hurt you, they died at my hands.

I took your achievements as my own, and I watched you do well in your own way, with girlfriends and borrowed shiny gadgets.

But you know, it was me who reduced the impact of your theft behind the scenes, so that you haven’t been put on the wanted list until now!

If I were to speak from my heart, I love you more than I love Sofia. She is like a child who never grows up. She is always anxious, reckless, radical and impulsive.

And you, you are the one most like me among all of them. You love adventure, you are bold but careful, and most importantly, once you make a plan, you have never failed.

If possible, I really want to keep you by my side and cultivate you.

Selina, only you are qualified to be the next me, because you are the best, and you know it better than me, my child!"

As he spoke, Falcone boldly approached Selina, and he even put his chest against the muzzle of Selina's gun.

As he spoke, he raised his right hand and stretched it towards Selina's head.

Seeing Falcone's right hand getting closer and closer, Selina paused slightly and immediately wanted to take a step back.

But the moment she moved, Falconet suddenly raised his elbow and knocked the gun out of Selina's hand!

Before Selina could react, Falconet's left hand had already grabbed her neck tightly!

At this moment, Selina swallowed hard.

Just because the man in front of her was her father after all, she actually forgot that before Falcone became the king of Gotham, Falcone was the most capable fighter in the Italian gang!
Once upon a time, when there was no Victor Zsasz in the Italian gang, Falcone did Victor's work. Even though he is old, he is still as sharp as a sword!

Grasping Selina's neck tightly, Falcone's face could no longer remain calm.

His face gradually became hysterical.

"I love you so much, but why did you destroy my last hope!

The flesh, blood and even the hair of a dead soul will disappear completely after he disappears once. I can only hope that Sophia can get his genetic genes and use them to cure my disease!
I am sick, my daughter. I have incurable pancreatic cancer. I should have died in bed!

At this moment, the dead soul appeared. He was a gift from God to me and the only hope that could completely heal me. But you killed Sophia and you destroyed everything I had!
I should have known, you're a bitch, crazy like your mother, damn bitch!

I should have dealt with you long ago, whether it was by sending you to an aristocratic school or directly killing you, this little thing. In short, I really shouldn't have given you the opportunity to appear here!
Damn it, damn it, I have already transferred most of my assets. Even if I want to go back to Gotham, I have to lie dormant for months, but my illness can't wait!

You destroyed me, you destroyed the entire Falcone family, you destroyed the last hope of the Italians to rise in America, you…"

"You also destroyed a daughter's last imagination of her father, Carmine Falcone!!!"

Selina let out a sudden wail and thrust her left hand fiercely towards Falconet's face.

At the moment when Falcone leaned back to avoid, Selina's claws suddenly extended, and the barbed metal claws hooked fiercely under Falcone's eye sockets!
The next moment, Selina pulled back her arm fiercely, leaving three wounds on Falconet's left face.

"what!!!"

Falcone hadn't felt such pain for a long time, and he instinctively reduced the strength of his grip on Selina. Selina took the opportunity to inflict a huge wound on his arm and escaped from his grasp!

As soon as she escaped, Selina immediately went to pick up the gun.

But at this time, dozens of armed gunmen had rushed into the cabin door.

Bullets were fired at Selina, and she had to give up the idea of ​​picking up the gun. She relied on twisting and turning to avoid the barrage, passing through the bar counter on the plane and approaching the retreat point she had reserved in advance.

Selina kicked open the emergency door that had been opened a little, rolled out like a cat, and then rushed to a four-wheeled off-road motorcycle.

Looking at Selina fleeing quickly, Falcone's men quickly supported him and asked.

"Boss, you stay here to treat her, we'll go after her right away."

"Stop chasing!"

Even though his face and arms were in severe pain, Falcone immediately stopped his men's actions.

After arranging his men to quickly clean up the cabin, Falcone's plane rushed into the sky in the blink of an eye.

Only after the plane left Gotham did Falcone breathe a sigh of relief and then smiled knowingly.

From today on, he and Selina will be irreconcilable, and this... is enough to serve as Selina's token of allegiance.

Although Sofia's death was regrettable, as he said, Selina was the child who was most like him and the one he admired the most.

He has never been alone. The rise and fall of an entire family is on his shoulders, which makes him never act arbitrarily.

Regardless, the Falcone bloodline will run deep.

And most importantly, he has already lost one daughter. Is he going to lose his second one in the blink of an eye?

He was no longer used to losing.
