Henry sat at the interrogation center in the precinct, the odd smell of the walls and cement filled up his nose, there was a large desk in front of him and two other chairs which were meant for whoever was going to be interrogating him.

His gaze was fixed on the camera. He had been waiting for them for a while now, and it felt like he felt a sharp gaze from miles away.

He kept on tapping his feet and fingers at the same time, trying to comprehend how things had gotten so worse for him, and he found himself in such a situation, but no matter how much he thought of it, it did not make any sense to him.

After what seemed like forever to him, the door finally swung open as two detectives stepped in, one a male in his middle forties and the other a lady who seemed to be in her late thirties.

“I am not saying anything to you without my lawyer!” He snapped as soon as they were both seated.

"Shouldn't you go home to rest?” he asked, but a brief smile played on Liam's face as he stood next to his boss.“Sir, there is this new deal that was going to be handed to our company. In fact, we were already speaking to them along with the finance team, but all of a sudden, they had gotten cold feet and pulled backward.”“Cold feet, that is not something that is usually accompanied by working with our company. Why should they sudde

    As Henry lay on the couch, his heart was racing fast, his eyes swirling around the ceiling, and he could see his entire life trying to crumble before him and, no matter how many times he thought about what to do, there was no solution that was forth coming to him.“Dad! What are we going to do about it right now?”“Isn't that obvious? We have to go over to the bank to get some loan to resolve this issue.”“And then what, even if they agree to give us a loan, which I know is next to impossible, given that we still owe a huge debt, not to mention the fact that our company is already in ruins. There is no way that we will be able to pay back and, as a result of that, we are going to lose both our company and our mansion.”Max carefully explained the situation to him and even though Henry knew that was the mess they were in right now, he still had no idea how to go about it.“So what are we going to do now?” He sat upright and let out a strong sigh.

I am engaged to your sister and even though she has been treating me like trash lately, don't you think that I still have every right to be here?”“Of course you do, please pardon me. I was just surprised to see you, please have a seat”. Both men finally sat down. Max knew that he had no drink to offer and even if he did have one, a man like Brian wasn't the

After a while, he could not hold it any longer and decided to crack his throat.“Sophia, you were so happy when I came back today, and now it seems like Brian was the reason for all the excitement. Care to share what is going on?”“Brian has decided to push our wedding forward”, she blurted out.
