Episode: 8
Shock sweeps the banquet hall after Kyle hits Rien Volkov. Rien threatens him with his Mazano family ties, while Lina Ashbourne tells Kyle to leave town. When Rien demands a night with Lina in exchange for Kyle's safety, Kyle slaps him down. Vito arrives with his guards to handle the disturbance. Instead of attacking, Vito strikes Rien and drops to his knees, calling Kyle his lord in front of the stunned crowd.
Banquet guests react with shock following Kyle's physical attack on Rien. Rien warns Kyle that the Mazano family will make him pay. Fearing for her bodyguard's safety, Lina urges Kyle to flee M City right away.
Rien announces that he already summoned Vito. Lina tries to settle the dispute by offering Rien a share in S Drug's development. Rien rejects the deal and demands a night with Lina, prompting Kyle to slap him to the floor.
Vito enters the hall flanked by his bodyguards. Lina steps forward to beg for Kyle's life. Kyle casually brushes her aside, greets Vito as Mazano boy, and asks if he wants a fight. Rien screams at Kyle for disrespecting Vito.
Vito suddenly turns and slaps Rien across the face. Then Vito drops straight to his knees on the floor before Kyle. He bows and addresses Kyle as his lord, leaving Lina, Rien, and the entire room paralyzed in disbelief.
“Let him go? Only if you spend the night with me.”
“Mazano boy, are you here to teach me a lesson?”
“My lord, I didn't know it was you!”
Vito remains bowed on the banquet hall floor, declaring his loyalty to Kyle. Lina, Rien, and the surrounding guests stare at the mob enforcer in total shock. How will Lina react now that she has witnessed a feared mafia figure kneeling before her personal driver, and what will Vito do with Rien next?
