It was early morning, and the sun was shining brightly across the city. A magnificent Audi RS7 automobile screeched to a halt in front of the company, drawing the attention of not just one but the entire crowd who stood outside the company's front. Everyone's jaws went open at the sight of the most prohibitively expensive and breathtaking four-wheel drive they'd ever seen.

"Wow, that must have cost a fortune." "Who could that be?" a man asked a friend.

"I hope he's a man since he has to be filthy rich. I'd simply throw myself on him and let him do anything he wanted with me." Two gorgeous ladies gossiped.

All eyes were drawn to the magnificent car—all around, curious as to who on earth could afford such a vehicle.

When the front door opened, their excitement grew. After a while, the person behind the door revealed himself.

    "What makes you shake?" Dave asked as he walked towards the manager.The manager stuttered, "Um, nothing, sir. Just a little cold, I guess."Dave wasn't convinced. He could tell something was bothering the manager. He walked closer to him and looked him in the eye."Oh, I see. Don't act like a child. You're a man, and Madam Charlotte is a nobody," Dave said, trying to ease the tension in the room.The manager nodded in agreement, but his eyes showed a hint of fear. Dave noticed this and asked him what was really going on."I don't think I'm going to be in safe hands when she realizes that you came to buy the company she owes," the manager confessed. "It's been a tough time for us, and she has been bugging us for money every day, threatening us with consequences if we don't pay her back."Dave's face turned into a frown. He had never liked people who used fear as a tool to get what they wanted. He knew he had to do something to help the manager."I think you're not in this country. Do

    "The doctor walked out on me." Madam Charlotte muttered to herself in a confused way.She took a step and was about to call the doctor back when Amelia asked when the medicine was needed."He said anytime from now, or else he's going to lose his life."Madam Charlotte glanced at her wrist watch and blurted out"It's getting late; what should we do now?" She asked, and Emily answered with tears."I don't know where to get this money from.

Look who's back," he said with a smirk.Amelia took a deep breath and pushed her pride aside. "Dave, I want to apologize for the way I treated you in the past. I was a terrible person, and I know that I hurt you. I'm here to make things right, if you'll let me."Dave raised an eyebrow and studied her for a moment before speaking. "You think an apology is going to make things right? Do you have any idea what you put me through?"Amelia shook her head. "I know I was wrong, Dave. I just want a chance to make amends."Dave laughed mockingly. "Make amends? like taking me out for dinner? Giving me a million bucks? Don't make me laugh. You think you can just stroll in here after all these years and make up for everything? You've got another thing coming, Amelia."Tears welled up in Amelia's eyes. She knew how hard it was for D
