Why was she freely walking with the man who almost took his father's Life?"I know Chris, I understand your countenance right now but they've helped a lot and you will ask your mother why she allowed me to walk with them.""I don't trust them a bit!"

Melissa continues and gets confident that he would budge to her demands as that's the level of trust Vike has in her."I already released her a few hours ago, after your call which reeks of danger, I had to send my men over. I still can't believe or get over the fact that you're alive. Damn! I'm glad but what are you talking about?"Melissa smiled in satisfaction, she was surprised that he already released Violet even before she could arrive."Thank you Vike " She
