One more dead

When Santiago and Persephone were lost in their world, there was someone else whose world had just shaken or was about to be shaken. 

Richard Costas!

He was sitting on the balcony, a lit cigarette held in his hand as his eyes were glancing all over his estate. He was a wealthy man but what was the benefit of all the wealth when it couldn't get him the status he wanted in his society? Just as he was about to be uplifted, his daughter threw him right back on the muddy and dirty ground.

He turned his head when he felt someone standing behind him but as he was about to shout, a palm closed his mouth and dragged him back to the room, shutting the door in the process. 

"Richard Costas! It's how you will welcome me now?" A hearty voice rang accompanied by a peal of evil laughter. 

"W-who are you?" Richard Costas managed to let out the word.
