“Good morning Barrister Evans.” Melissa greeted the lawyer as she took her seat.

She was always polite and soft towards the barrister because he never tolerated anyone being rude to him. He was the royal house lawyer and didn't care about anyone other than her father.

Regardless of her being the king's daughter and first daughter at that, he cared less about anyone.

“Who are you and what do you want me to do for you?” He asked as he didn't look up and continued typing on his computer system.

“I am Melissa, the eldest daughter of the king.” Melissa replied and just then, the lawyer raised his head up to look at her.

“What do you want me to do for you?” He asked her.

The cab driver had to drive so fast and follow many short cuts to catch up with them.“There! That's the car, chase after it and stop it!” Leo said to the cab driver.“How do you mean that you can't stop it?” Go after that vehicle now!” Leo yelled at the man without thinking twice.“It will be suicidal. That is a moving car. We can only go after it to block it from moving further.” He said to Leo. Leo knew that it wasn't an option to do that as Melissa's car would only crush them both and three of them could lose their lives in that.“What do you want us to do?” He asked the cab driver.“I have an idea. Open the drawer and remove any tool you see there.” The cab driver replied.“What do you mean? What for?” Leo asked.“Ed can

    "What's that?" Melissa asked the driver as they could see what was happening behind them. The car that was almost crashed into was the one immediately behind them."Some careless driver taking on the road again." The driver said to her."That's crazy, at least he should learn how to drive properly especially when on big roads like this with heavy traffic." Melissa added as the driver nodded in response to what she said."I will lose my driver's license and also my job if you keep doing this. You either tell your friend to shut up and let me do my work or you two get down and look for another taxi or bike or whatever."

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

    "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.

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.
