Chapter 011- Tempête to the rescue
"Timo, what do you want now?" Madame Eliza snapped as she answered the phone, her voice filled with frustration."Hahaha, Madame," Timo chuckled. "Relax, I didn't call to stir up trouble. I just wanted to chat," he said from the other end."Really? you want us to chat? I've already set everything up for you and your gang to start fresh in Germany with new identities. Do you really want to risk getting caught by the cops for good? I don't understand why you reached out to me considering you don't work for me anymore," Madame Amelia asked, her impatience evident."Nah, woman. You want me to sit in Germany and wait for food to come to me?" Timo joked. "How do you expect me to survive? My gang and I engage in a bit of pickpocketing here in Heralzia, of course! By the way, I have some exciting news and a proposal for you," he announced.Madame Eliza sighed, "I'm all ears. Hurry and spill the beans, but don't get me in trouble," she pleaded, wondering what Timo would want to tell her."Can

Chapter 012- $15 billion premium cardFuming with frustration, Tempête brushed Mr. Thomas's hand away and pointed an accusing finger at him.

Leave before I lose my temper!" he demanded."I'm sorry, Lieutenant Tempête, but this poor commoner is not your Lord or anything related to royalty. I understand that you're just trying to let us free him, but we surely won't. We respect you so much, sir." Mr. Thomas whined but his plea was immediately met with a swift kick to his belly, causing him to wince in pain and cry out, "Ouch!''"If you don't leave here at this moment, I might be forced to bring out my gun!" Tempête yelled, making Mr. Thomas and his thugs hastily flee away in great fear of being shot.Throughout the ordeal, Logan and his mother remained silent as they sat on the dry, bare floor.

Did I ask for it? What do she and her mother think they’re doing, trying to manipulate me with unsolicited money?'' Logan fumed.Madame Amelia's tone was both advisory and concerned as she said, "I hope one day you’ll learn to control your temper.

"Young man, do you think I'm joking here? Look at your rough clothes. Do you think you're qualified to see the Manager?''Logan was taken aback as the security guard peered down at him with disdain, clearly judging him for not wearing expensive clothing.He opted to avoid a confrontation with the security guard, so he flashed a smile and spoke calmly,"I'm dead serious - I absolutely need to speak with the Manager.''As Logan kept repeating the same words, the security guard's anger reached a boiling point. With a cold stare, he lashed out at Logan once more."Young man, you don't have the right to enter so please leave now else I would be rude!'’As the security guard's icy words echoed for the second time, Logan's patience wore thin and a frown creased his face.He took a step forward and seized the security guard by the collar.
