"And you, Mr. Barzini." That was when Frank turned toward the dumbstruck Fredo, clapping him on the shoulder. "I heard that the commissioner is putting together a party for Carlo Group at Emerald Court tonight?" Content belongs to en.kikistories"Huh?!" Fredo looked up at Frank, dumbfounded.
How could Frank find out about that?! They even made sure to keep it a secret! On top of that, the party was to celebrate the fall of Zamri Hospital, after which Carlo Group would take over.
However, despite all their boasting, Carlo Group had completely failed their task.
In fact, Zamri Hospital did not just Vfoil their plans-they had really landed a solid punch back, and the purpose of the party was really moot at this point.

No one moved to stop them along the way, just as Fredo soon saw hundreds of security officers from the Lanecorp Health and Safety Department.
They were standing in formation, their hands clasped behind their back, their expressions impassive.
