A longtime Family member rejects his niece's expansion plan, then leaves after his fiancé takes her side.
Kelly, the Don's niece, enters the Family to modernize operations and purge elders who resist her expansion. During a Family meeting, the protagonist rejects her reckless plan in front of everyone. Kelly responds with a cold glance and a demand that he leave. His fiancé intercepts him in a corridor, agrees with Kelly, and claims he offended someone dangerous. Without protest, the protagonist signs withdrawal papers and departs. He stayed for years only because someone begged him to hold the Family together. After posting his departure online, the underworld reacts.
