44. Burn! Burn Alive!

"Don't divert your gaze from the screen! This is going to be an interesting and super exclusive show!" commanded Roesli to Hazel and Irina.

The two women exchanged glances, neither confirming nor rejecting Roesli's command.

Roesli didn't care; he knew his captives would follow his orders because even without his order, they would undoubtedly witness the upcoming spectacle.

"Hey, you! Fetch me some popcorn! This is going to be an exciting watch; oh, I can't wait." Roesli instructed one of his guards to get what he asked for.

The guard then went to the pantry and shortly returned with a large bowl of popcorn. The tempting scent of roasted corn filled the air, and Roesli and Nareen began enjoying it.

After that, the screen, initially dark, lit up, revealing at least twenty men dressed in black and wearing face coverings circling the Smith mansion, evenly spreading fuel on its walls.

"Oh!" exclaimed Irina, standing up from her seat, but a guard restrained her shoulder, keeping her seated.
