tightened, masked with pain and fury.
The room filled with files and photos

legacy that Awaits him.
"Come on, you can do better than
that! You will never beat me with
slow moves. You have to move
faster." Lucas mumbling while
grinning at one of the locals.
"How do you make it look so easy?"
The local guy breathing heavily
as he intoned.
"Years of practice and a little
talent. You will get there."
Lucas mumbling, trying to stare
the guy.
"He's growing stronger, Alex and
More restless. the longer we wait
the more anxious of knowing the
truth he becomes. He's starting to
ask Questions about his parents."
Thomas mumbled with worry
In his voice.
"You can't tell him yet, Thomas.
His safety comes first, and until
Leonardo says so."
Alex uttered, with warning.
"I'm afraid it's only a matter of
time before he finds out on his
own. You and I both know how
smart he is. And everytime I try
to make him feel convinced.
He senses that something is
not right." Thomas mumbling
With worry in his voice.
"If he finds out before it's time,
He will be in danger. The enemies
of his father are still watching.
From now on, we need to put
more eyes on him." Alex uttered,
with worry in his face.
