"What matters most is that your father, Mr Louis complies to our request and resigns as the chairman of the financial union of the region immediately."

Eric Raymond said, his voice barely was a bit haunty as he stared askance at Alex Waynee and John Paul who were now downstairs with them.

The weight of what he just said hit Jose Louis and Kelly Louis like a ton of bricks, their expressions shifting from confusion to a mixture of fear and disbelief.

Kelly's eyes widened, darting around as if searching for an escape but the blindfold was really doing a great job blocking her eyesight.

"What are you talking about?"

"You mean you want our dad to resign as the chairman of the financial union of this region?"
