Sir Patrickson drove to the International Court of Patrickson and stopped his car before the main entrance of the court. He was a popular capitalist, so the paparazzis came in their numbers to question him.

He waved at them. "Not ready for any questions."

He walked into the court, painted white. His presence here created a scene.

"What's Sir Patrickson doing here?"

"What's he here for?" Everyone who set eyes on him murmured among themselves. He didn't look at anyone but walked directly to the elevator. He pressed the tenth floor which was the registry hall. Here all cases were registered.

The staff working here at the registry room were busy on their system with their headphones when they got an alert through their sound system that an important personality was here to see them.

    Henry Patrickson sat at his desk, staring at the bank statements in front of him. He had lost so much money in the robbery, far more than he could ever afford to lose. And as the reality of the situation sank in, he felt his rage building. He began to tremble, his fists clenched so tight that his knuckles turned white. He stood up, knocking over his chair, and began to pace back and forth, his breath coming in gasps.He started to smash things, throwing books and papers across the room, kicking over furniture.Finally, he stopped, panting and sweating, his heart pounding in his chest. And as the rage subsided, he was left with a deep sense of shame. He had lost control, acting like a child instead of a man."Leo, you bastard!" Henry seethed, his voice hoarse with rage. "You took everything from me! You took my wife, my money, my reputation! And now you've taken my dignity, with your little puppet, Melissa. I swear I'll make you pay for this! You'll regret the day you ever crossed me!"

    "What?" he snapped. "What is it?""Henry, I know this is difficult, but you need to hear me out," his father said, his voice calm and patient. "I know the outcome wasn't what we wanted, but we need to figure out what to do next.""What do you want me to do?" Henry asked, his tone bitter."The judge was not happy with the case you brought to him," his father said. "He felt that you didn't have enough evidence to sue the royal government, and he said that if you continued to pursue this, you could face serious consequences. He said that you needed to drop the case, and focus on fixing the problems within your company.""But they robbed me!" Henry protested, his voice rising. "They stole from me! They deserve to be punished!""I understand that you're angry," his father said, "but you need to calm down and think about this rationally. I know this is difficult, but we need to think of a way forward. The judge was clear that if you continue to pursue this case, you could end up in prison.

You know what I am talking about. I'm in for the discussion we had the last time we met.” Henry replied.“I've heard you.” The man replied.“Dennis, stop joking around please. So, is it still open? I'm fully ready for whatever you need me to do.” Henry replied with a desperate tone.“You are not serious, or are you?” Dennis asked him again with a serious voice now.

    Henry was calm and secretive, which made everyone to be surprised. Clara came visiting but his countenance towards her was also shocking.“Why are you so quiet and calm when there is fire out there, raging all around you??” Julia questioned as she couldn't understand why and where he got this calm attitude from when he was supposed to be worried and flaring up in anger.“What? Shouldn't I have peace of mind again? Or just because your little puppet and his toy are playing games on me, should it make me to panic and start begging them??” Henry spoke so derogatory to Clara that she felt insulted.“I am trying to make things easier for you and stressing my fucking ass out there but meanwhile, you are here like a bitch doing nothing!” Clara yelled in anger.Clara glared at Henry, her eyes blazing with fury.

He felt the darkness closing in around him, and he couldn't see a way out."I don't understand it," Melissa said, her voice full of confusion. "It's like a miracle.

    It was early in the morning, on the day Leo would be made the prime minister, when Steve brought his boys and supporters to the coronation venue. His aim was to distort the event before it even started. Unfortunately, they were met by very armed military officials. These men were armed to the teeth and ready to take down anyone who would cause a scene. This was so frustrating for Steve and Colton. They could barely do a thing. The soldiers had their guns ready to fire. Just then, the king arrived with his entourage. "What's going on here?!" He asked. Steve was mad. "You really want to go through with this?!" Steve asked. "Giving such a critical role to a common person. A low life." He fired at the king. "Leo is no low life. Maybe he was, but he proved to us all that where you come from is only but a mirage of what you can achieve. His great feats have made him a perfect man for the job." The king explained. "I can not sit and watch this happen." Steve said. "You can and you w

    Soon, Leo and Melissa sat down and the coronation began. Some people at the back muttered. "How old is he?" They asked among themselves. "Isn't he too young to be a prime minister?" "The king is obviously being sentimental here, making his daughter's love interest the prime minister." They continued to gossip. However, that wasn't the case. He did this because he believed that Leo's kind, determined and creative mind was what the country needed for better development. The gossip and mutters didn't help. The Royal house had made its decision and no one could oppose it especially when there was really nothing against Leo. He had no history of crime or law opposition. "Let us to Rise to our new Prime Minister, Mr. Leo Luke." The moderator of the coronation commanded. Everyone rose to their feet, including the king to pay his respect.

He said to her as he slapped her again. "She held her cheek firm. "What was that for?!" She asked out loud, almost crying. "You will know when I am done with you!" He said in a very angry tone. He then took his belt out and started to flog her brutally. She cried so loud, the security guard outside could hear her voice. He felt pity for her because of how she was always maltreated by her husband. He sat outside and wondered at reason would make a man treat his wife this way. Her cries were very loud and disturbing. "Why does this man maltreat his wife this way?" He asked himself. "He is ill mannered." He added. Normally, he heard we cry many times, but today's cry was too loud to a avoided.

    Capone could not believe this. "I said it has been disposed of in the ocean where I always dispose of my bodies." He said to the prince again."I do not care, I want it out." The prince said. "I am sorry my prince. I can not do that." He said to the prince. "It is deep under the sea and is along with all the bodies I always out there. It will be hard to find." He replied to the prince. "It does not matter. I can pay divers to go in there and bring the bodies out. I can be you in a day, he will be found." The prince said to him. "I am sorry. That place is my disposal spot and it is a secret, even to my men. I can not let anyone find it." He said to the prince. The prince was disappointed. "Don't you have at least a picture of his full body after death?" He asked Capone. "I do not, my prince," Capone responded. "You should have saved something to show me as proof." The prince said to him, looking upset. "That was not the deal of our agreement," Capone said to him. "The deal wa

    Capone stared at the bodies in Charlie's apartment for a while. He wondered how to clear them out. There were three dead bodies and he was just one person. He thought about calling his men to come and aid him, but he settled for not calling them at all. "If I do, they will figure I did not kill the target when they do not see him." He thought to himself. "And words could get out to Prince Colton. I can not have that happening." He also thought. He decided to do it himself, but he also had to be smart about it. He went out and looked through the window of the apartment. The window was facing the back of the building. He observed the scene and noticed it was a dead part of the street. No one ever got into it. He then had an idea. He quickly went out and ran into his car. He brought out bags and tapes. They were meant to be used to wrap Charlie after looking at him and taken away, but since things took a dramatic turn, they would now be used for another purpose. To wap his men

    "I know I've seen you somewhere before." The security guard said. "Do you mind taking off your glasses?" He asked Charlie politely. "Yes, I do. The lights aren't good for me." Charlie said, trying as much as possible to remain unknown. His wife soon felt there was a problem. She stood up and turned to her husband. "Honey. What is the matter?" She asked her husband. "Nothing. I am just thinking I know this guy and trying to figure out where we last saw each other." He said to his wife. He very well knew he saw Charlie somewhere and it was not for a good reason, that was why he was interested. "Please can I just have a glimpse of your face without the glasses?" He said to Charlie. Charlie knew now and here that this man was not playing. He was kin on knowing who he was. Charlie knew that to escape this, he had to pull a new stunt. "Why are you harassing me?!"

    "Well, I can not just leave like that. You have to give me something. And I have to clean this mess up."Capone said, pointing at his dead men. "I have two hundred and fifty thousand dollars cash," Charlie said. "If that will do." He asked Capone. "Yes. " Capone said. "It sure will. " He added to Charlie. Charlie then walked to his bag and took out money wrapped in a paper bag. He gave the money to Capone. "Here it is," he said to Capone and he gave the money out. Capone took it, quickly tore through, and looked in. "This is good, man," Capone said to him. "Make sure you stray very far from this place. " Capone said to him.

"I can't. " Capone said. "You know, I am just like you, I have failed at work before. I always deliver." He added. Charlie's heart was now racing. He knew he was. getting out of there, so he wanted to pull the trigger. Capone knew when someone wanted to pull the trigger. Anytime someone wanted to pull the trigger especially to kill another person, they always experienced an involuntary rise in emotion. It was something that learning to control took years. When he saw Charlie being that way, he knew that Charlie wanted to pull the trigger. "Do not do it. " He said to Charlie.
