"Put me on the commission," Marcel requested.
"No," Eric rejected right away.
"Why?"
"The Luciano are no good there and I have worked so hard to put things together, I wouldn't watch my efforts crumble right before my eyes." He said firmly.
"It's me, not my father."
"Yes, I know, Marcel. You are a fair, ambitious, and hardworking young man and though your father might not control you any longer, the consequences do."
However, Marcel would not give up on this and was set to convince him, "I deserve that position. I have worked hard for it."
"I'm sorry, Marcel. But you would have to request something else."
"There's nothing else to request but the both of them," Marcel reminded him," It's five lives versus two requests, Eric and from what I see, you are the one gaining. Your brother took lives that can never be returned."
