Victor tossed the envelope back onto the table, his eyes burning with a mix of annoyance and reluctant admiration. "Convincing or not, it's a leash. And I don't like leashes."
Anna the new "sister"spoke again, her voice steady but tinged with iron. "Then wear it long enough to choke Conrad with it."
The men in the room erupted in laughter, but the operative's smirk never wavered. He leaned closer to Victor. "Welcome to the Dane family. Better learn your lines.how about we all go the new house to see how you familiarize yourselves?"
"Sounds like a plan ,y'all go and prepare the ground,me and Victor will meet you there in 30 ." Carl commanded while looking forward to see Victor flustered .
In less than 30minutes they set the table like it mattered.A handful of men and Carl standing in the corner quietly like spectators.
