The five million dollars

"How is the call with that woman?"

In the office, Adelio asked Luke. The whole company was under silence. Darkness swallowed the halls. The CEO office was the only bright room in the entire building. "Sadly, no one answered" Pouting, Luke shook his head. Bringing a frown upon the man's face. "Tsk…"

Luke attempted to contact Adelio's mother, Morana, trying to talk it through the call and settle the debt by doubling the price. But the call was rejected. No one answered it. After a few attempts, the number even turned out to be out of service. "What should we do now?"

Worried, Adelio mumbled. He pressed his temples; squeezing eyes in vexation. "Does that woman know you would be paying it off? Maybe, she is avoiding you because of that. Everyone knows she likes to torture people who can't repay. Her target must be Risa at the moment"
