Arianna’s family was falling apart and facing a tragic demise, however, her heart sank when she clearly saw Travis Cooper’s name on the acquisition papers. She had no choice but to negotiate with him.
Arianna lowered her head and relaxed her shoulders to ease the tension. She should show him gratefulness to make him happier, she thought, but she just couldn’t do it.
“How would you be willing to leave my grandfather alone?”
He casually poured her a cup of tea and placed it in front of her before replying, “I think the correct person to ask is the judge, no? The offenders are usually punished. This is a matter of justice, isn’t it?”
Arianna was beginning to grow tired of his mood swings.
“He is old, and his body is failing him. He would not last long in prison.” Arianna continued to try to sway him.
“What can I do? I always admire devoted children.” His voice carried some ridicule, “But I’m not a charity. I only do transactions with interests. What would you do in exchange for the freedom of your grandfather?”
Travis intertwined the fingers of his one hand with the other and rested his hands on his stomach as he leaned back in his chair once more. His expression was a bit lazy, “Since you entered this door, I’ve been waiting for the drama of you selling your body and soul to me in order to save your family member.”
When Arianna didn’t reply, Travis explicitly said, “Maybe I’m just bored. I’d like to try something fun.”
Arianna’s stomach felt like it flipped. She looked at the handsome face that was now showing evil.

Since he came into the room, Travis had been watching Arianna insert the two crystal wires into the hole of the bead with a needle tip. No one greeted him.


Arianna was working at a lower efficiency than normal. After ten minutes, she had only put two beads on the string.


Travis coughed and walked towards the door. Arianna thought he was bored, but Travis said to someone outside the door, “Could you get Miss Jenkins a fishing line or something like... a couple of inches long should be enough.”


Shortly after, the line was delivered to him. He folded the fishing line in half, sandwiched the two crystal wires in the middle, and handed it to Arianna. She could easily put all the beads on all four lines this way.


When she finished, she made several attempts at tying the four strands together. After watching her struggle, Travis said, “Put the strings into one group and loop them around each other. Then just pull on the knot to tighten it.”
