Several other men were in the room, each holding a gun, their faces set with grim determination. “What are you doing?” Richard asked, his voice trembling as he caught sight of the item in the briefcase, which looked alarmingly like a bomb. “I’m about to send you all to the devil,” James scoffed, his tone dripping with malicious disdain. Richard’s eyes widened in fear. “You’re insane! You can’t do this!” James chuckled darkly. “Oh, but I can. And I will. It’s time for the Richmond empire to fall, and you’re just collateral damage.” Mr. Blaq shifted uneasily, glancing at the other men.

They've served their purpose and it's time to look into the bigger picture,”Julio's respect for Lee Chan had always been massive seeing how much he reasoned like himself.

That's Dexter's biological mother.” Stephanie replied, causing Ivy's mouth to open wide in awe as she had never expected it.
