Maxwell just paused transfixed like he was a statue.

He couldn't chew, eat, or swallow.

It was like he has no idea how to do any of those anymore.

"Does it taste great?" Linda asked with enthusiasm waiting for a response from the man she loves.

Maxwell Shawn would have said it was not at all good but seeing how hopeful she looks and was waiting for her approval, he uttered smilingly;

"It tastes good, it really is delicious darling."

"Oh okay, glad you loved it, you should eat more then." Linda Pierre uttered.

"Right…" Maxwell uttered reluctantly as this was too much for him to eat since it wasn't at all delicious.

He just doesn't want to hurt her feelings that was why he didn't tell her it doesn't taste good.

'I just know I will have a running stomach after eating this, what have I gotten myself into?' He thought as he did his best to eat breakfast.

So, Linda, seeing that he was eating the food, went to get him juice. So Maxwell used the opportunity to pack the plate of food and place

"You of course, you sure make one laugh out loud… I mean for someone who should be scared of serving jail time forever you feel you are perfectly good." Ivan Louison retorted. "What do you mean?"

Mr Emiliano uttered."Sure you don't enter children trafficking and so many more just the tip of the iceberg I know what you doing behind the scene and it will be best if we stopped disturbing my business here in Costa Rica because if you don't I am not my father who does things nicely I will take you down and you will serve jail time for all your trust it it is either you let this go or you let your freedom go your choice."

Mr Emiliano retorted."Your reply will determine how much I will let you know, if it doesn't suit me, then you can find how much I know in the news. Look I believe you called me here because you felt like I know something more dark, so rather than play games like hide and seek it will be best if you made a decision right now."

She's my ex-wife, yes we got divorced due to her betrayal to me that doesn't mean I want to go back to her. What does hugging have to do with going back to her?"

    The gate to Ivan's home opened and their car drove in.

Bryce asked."Yeah we have the land." Ivan simply said."I would never have thought that you would resolve this with just a little bit of anger and rage from just one man?" Bryce uttered and added; "I guess everything went according to plan, it was a good thing your fiance got kidnapped, else we wouldn't have ownership of those lands at all. I believe when we want you to do something for us, we will have to involve your woman.""Probably… but keep in mind that you won't be as fortunate as Finn Monroe was, because that could literally mean death for you." Ivan Louison uttered.They both chuckled and the call got disconnected.Not long after that the news of his job well done spread out amongst his organization that everyone, both the members in the in

    Ivan was actually close to Finn Monroe's house when he heard him say the word 'please' of course he was upset but this could bring more wealth and fame to his organization if he (Finn) was truly being sincere about letting go of some properties that was initially theirs back to them to prevent that from happening."The truth of the matter is I am very much upset that two of your hoodlums laid their filthy hands on my women. Of course I taught them a lesson they will never forget, but for them to be working on your orders means you actually tried to hurt someone that I love which I will not forgive you for that easily." He stated sternly."From the reports you've already destroyed two of my headquarters that should be enough for just a little bruise and your woman. I know it doesn't justify what we do, but I will make it up to you tomorrow. I promise please I have enough on my plate just hear me out tomorrow you and I will meet and discuss these things."

    "Talk to me, do you have everything on record? Because we really need to show it to the boss." Morris immediately said.But what happened next was shocking to Morris because he never thought that it would be Ivan who would be answering the call in his subordinate's stead."You must be Morris, the right hand man to Finn, because I am pretty sure such a member of low ranking would not have the real boss's number. I want you to deliver a message to Finn Monroe telling him that I'm coming for him and for everything he holds dear, no one challenges Ivan and goes scot-free, no one." Ivan Louison uttered."Oh please shut up, you are nothing but a wimp all you ever do is hide behind your men and advisers, nothing more, you are a disgrace to all Dons. If I were in your organization I would have plotted to kill you. You are not as ruthless as you claim to be." Morris uttered."Of course I do not claim to be ruthless. I am ruthless, and just so you know, I have people even in your organization.

Maxwell Shawn uttered."Well she does and I am someone who she relies upon to bring her out of that place." Finn Monroe retorted."So if it is about you being able to help her how come you are not there doing that why are you here?" Linda Pierre asked skeptically."I have spent a lot of money on this case, but it is not forthcoming… her freedom that is, because to be honest I wouldn't lie to you I really need her out of there it was her fault, yes but please give her a chance."

    ***Some few days ago****Finn was busy patiently waiting for Sophia to come out of jail he really needed to see the woman he loves, the issue on ground was too much for them to bear and since her parents were not interested in helping her out in any way he needed to make sure that she comes out of jail in one piece and for him to do that he needs to see those who make complaints against Sophia Hills.It wasn't going to be an easy task as he doesn't know how to act in a calm manner. All he ever does is yell and give orders but to ask them to drop the case he would need to be more calm and tolerant.As he knows yelling at them wouldn't help in any way, rather it would intensify issues.Watching his woman being brought out of jail to visit him was painful but it was better than not seeing each other at all."Hi Sophia, how have you been? What's really going on? Have they been treating you right, what's with all those bruises?" Finn Monroe asked, staring at Sophia.It turns out that Sophi
