Everything was starting to add up for Jovani, in what he hoped would be a positive way. Samuel was taking over which meant that he was going to get the chance to step back and take care of the things that he needed to focus on while helping his younger cousin learn to take over.
He could now finish the deal with Julian and work with more open terms than he had originally been. The trading route would be very useful for the expansion he wanted to do with the Vedova Nera. It would also be useful in helping to block Marcus out from expanding in that direction as easily.
All that would be left after that was dealing with Genson and helping to get the rest of the family settled in their correct roles. If he could manage to do all of that, he would be able to enjoy his position as Samuel's right-hand man rather than being the one who had to be in charge all of the time. He was good at it, but that didn't mean it was what he wanted to do with the rest of his life.
