Antonio viewed a character like Jagoan, who seemed to prioritize money over his own life, as a walking invitation to self-destruction. Despite openly disclosing his ties to the mafia, he had the audacity to request money from Antonio. Wasn’t this akin to bargaining for cash at the cost of his existence?

And how could he even consider handing him the money? You see, despite his net worth exceeding a staggering hundred million dollars, every single penny in there was hard-earned. He’d toiled and strained to wring it from the very pockets of the less fortunate. For any outsider to try and filch even a dime would be, figuratively speaking, akin to signing their own death sentence.

Initially, he was quite concerned that Jagoan might have already tipped off the cops, with law enforcement just moments away. Although he’d committed countless misdeeds in his past, He’d recently started mending my reputation. How could he possibly harm this kid in front of the police? Yet, little did he know that this boy would willingly accompany him inside the house, all in the pursuit of cold, hard cash. It felt like he was inviting a wolf into a tiger’s den.

Once he crossed the threshold, safe from prying police eyes, he could have his henchmen make quick work of him, then orchestrate a break-in scenario. When the authorities arrived, they’d simply find a burglar who had met a fatal end at the hands of his men. And with a savvy attorney at his side, the likelihood of jail time would be minimal. Even if the legal defense faltered and someone went behind bars, it would be his lesser brother, disassociated from him.

Hence, the very moment Jagoan expressed his desire to accompany him inside, he’d already resolved that he wouldn’t leave alive.

Simultaneously, the police officers sensed the impending disaster once Jagoan entered the premises. One of them kindly suggested, “Sir, if you have any issues, it might be better to resolve them outside. Going in could complicate matters.”
