BACK IN MR. TOM'S APARTMENT. Tom walked towards the stranger, eager to understand if there was anything wrong.

Julie couldn't believe her eyes; a sense of remorse set in. But as she turned to the man, she knew that she had to make a choice, and the better choice wasn't Dickson.

Eleanor walked sluggishly into the room, having received the info of their flight back to Chicago. She never wanted to return to a clingy and busy environment like her home in Chicago.Romsey sat, his face buried in a newspaper, "The Times," which sounded more different, more subdued, more questioning than it used to be. Even the looks on the guards' faces were different, except for Robson, who was happy that he would reunite with his wife and daughter.Romsey dropped the paper on the table, looking at Eleanor. "You didn't tell me everything you wanted to," he said. She smiled. "You will find out more, young master," her face showing a mixture of pleasure and turmoil.She thought of the strict nature of her father, who would always insist that she take over one of the mini-companies.
