Alex had just finished talking to his secretary on Skype because they were talking about the ifi-feature of the State Trend Tourists Magazine when he heard the door of his house open. He didn't close it because security was tight in the village where his house was located.

A few seconds later, Brandon Hill entered the living room.

"You are welcome," he said. He closed the laptop and gave him his full attention. "Do you have a report on the information I'm looking for?"

Brandon nodded, then sat down on the single sofa. "Yes, there is. I can tell you over the phone but first, I need to know what you will use the information you need." He stared at him intently as if reading his thoughts. "Tell me... do you intend to destroy Rowan Mandez's life like you did with the Charlie Carlyle Shipping Line?"

He smiled coldly. "I did that to Charlie Carlyle Shipping Line because of my business. Rowan is a different story. It's something personal."
