Duke is leaning forward from behind Mister Jimmy as he reads through what he is showing him. " So what would you do in this case?" Mister Jimmy asks him. Duke looks at the data very carefully and then he thinks even more carefully. " If Mister A doesn't pay back, the whole business will be plunging into debt. " Duke points out. " Mister B should be given because he has paid back many times and has proven to be trustworthy. "Mister Jimmy nods. " But what if Mister A is a close family member?" He asks. " If you asked me, sir, I would say that business comes before family. " Duke shrugs. " That's what keeps the business running. "Mister Jimmy laughs and claps his hands at the same time." When everyone thought I was going crazy because I hired you as my bodyguard, I knew I wasn't wrong. " He chuckles. " Look, consultation comes with the package too. "Duke only smiles, he is still on his guard as he knows that no amount of praise can turn this man into his friend. " I am just doi

Melody hears her frightened breath that doesn't calm down no matter how hard she tries. Halfway through the kidnap, she was injected with something that made her pass out and now she has woken up with her eyes blinded by a cloth. She feels herself still in a moving vehicle and it's still frightening. " Help. " She gulps. " Please, someone help me. " " Lady, be quiet. " A voice shuts her. " No one is coming to save you. "The voice is not hostile, but she is scared to her bones because she doesn't know what's going on around her. The car finally comes to a stop and she is taken off the seat and into someone's shoulder like a bag of flour. " Please, don't kill me!" She cries. " I beg you. "" Quiet, please. " The annoyed voice repeats. " Does this have to do with my grandfather? I do not know about what they have done to you, please don't take it out on me. " If the people who took her heard this, they wouldn't answer. She is crying now because she feels like she is doomed, she

And to think that Duke thought he was different from his father. " You said you killed him with only a punch. "Duke's voice is low. " Why does he look like he has been run over by a train?" Mister Joseph takes out his cigarette and looks at it as he laughs. " I

Duke feels his throat dry up. For six years, he has been dreaming of setting his eyes on this man and for almost a year now, he has dedicated his life to that goal.

Duke feels like he is in an unreal world. He is sweating so much and struggling to keep his eyes open as he leans against the window. He knows that he is in a moving car, he knows everything that has happened too, but he just feels terrible to think completely right. He struggles to open his eyes for a second and he shuts them again. He recognizes the road even though the night blanket is slowly being pulled over the sky. They are in drought side, he knows that barren land anywhere and anytime. His hands are tied so tightly that he feels his hands getting numb from the lack of circulation of blood. He adjusts his head and he winces, all he feels is pain, raw pain. The car keeps going through the dusty road and finally, it comes to a stop. He opens his eyes and he sees the only mansion – the only building, rather – in drought side. The doors fling open and air meets his tired face. " Get out!"He is pulled out of the car very roughly as he is shoved between people, but he manag
