As Sergio continued to plead with El Patrio to leave the casino, emphasizing the urgency of his meeting with the Beast, El Patrio remained obstinate. His pride and determination to see the wine stain cleaned had taken precedence over all else. The tension between the two men was palpable, and it seemed as though they were at an impasse.Just as their heated argument reached a boiling point, the situation took an unexpected turn.
