Chapter 17

Sitting inbetween two hefty guys gave me a familiar feeling. Back at the underground arena, I'd sit or stand but if I sat down, there were always others sitting next to me and they were mostly guys.

Opposite me presently, was a woman dressed all glamorous and fancy like. She had orange hair just like me but her face was that of a total stranger. Sitting next to her was a guy of about 22 or so. These people were completely strange to me but if I'd guessed right then, the woman who sat in front of me must've been Claudia and the guy, Oliver. In other words, Oscar's stepmother and halfbrother.

"You've refused to meet me before, true?" She asked and I nodded.

"True!" I answered

"You do realize that I can make you rich, right?"

"Right!" I answered once more.

"And at the same time, I can make you disappear." She said and I fell silent. What was she getting at? "I need you to complete a task for me and I'll make you rich."
