"But he is no longer part of us, he is no more family.""No no no, he is, he always would be, maybe not in your book, but in my book, now honey sit down and let us continue with the festivities."Mrs. Davidson's fury ignited as she laid eyes on Romeo, her expression was contorted with disdain. With venom in her voice, she leaned towards him, and the words that poured out her mouth dripped with malice. "You would never be accepted anywhere around here, do you hear me? So just take advantage of my husband's act of charity and eat to your fill. And if possible, take out the scraps from here because guess what, these scraps were meant for you."Romeo's response was stoic yet laced with intelligence.

Linda's fingers trembled slightly as she tapped on the video, her eyes fixed on the screen as it came to life with what looked like a video footage. The scene depicted Emily Blackwood, with a face that looked to be twisted in a mask of composed authority, standing in a dimly lit alleyway, however her figure was illuminated by the soft glow of a street lamp.Opposite her stood a shadowy figure, with features that were obscured by the darkness, however their body language spoke volumes of undercover dealings.

With a surge of urgency, Emily Blackwood abruptly rose from her seat, as her composed facade was now completely shattered.

The manservant replied."Where is Romeo?" she implored a maidservant, her tone was urgent as she scanned the surroundings for any sign of the Romeo's elusive figure."Where is Romeo Stewart?" she pressed a bodyguard, as her voice was tinged
Romeo took a long drag from his cigar, and the ember glowed brightly in the darkness as he turned sternly towards Emily Blackwood. His eyes bore into hers with an intensity that made her shrink back, and a mix of defiance and regret swirled in her gaze."Now I am the villain, huh?" His voice was laced with a bitter edge, cutting through the tense air like a knife."No... no, Lord... Romeo, you are not a villain," Emily murmured, her words were a feeble attempt to defend herself against his accusation, confusion and desperation was evident in her voice.Romeo's expression softened slightly, but the steely resolve remained in his eyes as he continued. "You know I don't blame you. I blame all the evil money-bag organizations, evil business tycoons that make their way to the top and out of wickedness, they decide to completely make life hard and unbearable for those below them."Tears welled up in Emily's eyes as she listened to his words, a mix of guilt and shame weighed heavily on her

Yet, as he scanned the dimly lit corridor behind him, there was nothing but shadows dancing in the flickering light. No one was there. Confusion knitted his brow, but he brushed it aside, chalking it up to nerves before the fight.But then, as he took a step forward, the voice echoed again, colder and more insistent this time, cutting through the air like a knife.
