"So what's your decision? Mr. and Mrs. Jones?" The man asked, breaking the silence in the room. Making both parents draw their eyes at him. He chuckled, this is enjoyable. "Mr. Alexander Hamilton, we don't know yet?" The man said, shivering. He didn't know what to do, whether to release his daughter or lose the company he had worked tirelessly to build. This time his heart was racing faster than normal. He can't afford to lose it to some bastard after the years and effort he had put into the company. If he had listened to his wife years back, he couldn't have signed the contract with Hamilton, but he needed more money to show off how big and progressive he had become. Hamilton is the biggest company in the whole of western Europe. How can he allow a big opportunity to slip out of his hands? No way! Everyone had the dream of becoming richer, wealthy and established in life, but his greediness has made him sign a deal with the devil, putting him in a tight spot, and now he can't help himself out. "You don't know yet?" He asked with a mocking tone. Of course, it seems funny to the man. He remembers when he was signing the contract he couldn't wait to get his signature done on the sheet. He was so in a hurry to complete his agreement with Hamilton, but now the cheating man is acting innocent? Not on his watch! "S-sir is not what you think. See," he turned and looked at the quiet girl waiting to hear her parent's conclusion to this. "She's my only child. And I can't lose her please. I thought you said she would be with you for a week before we raise the money" the man said, looking terrified and sweating. It was obvious the unknown man's face scared him, since his laughter had died, of his lips.. showing a cold icy face. "You say what?" The man asked coldly, glancing angrily at the man. It seemed he had held on to his patience enough. "What if you didn't pay up the money a week before? What will happen then?" He sits up and continues. "How will you raise that money? I'm even giving you a better option and you refuse?" Suddenly the woman cuts in, "No....sir"she stammered "is not what you think Sir. What my husband is trying to say is time......" But before she could complete her words. She was immediately interrupted by the man's thunderous voice. "Trying to say what!" He growled, causing fear for both the couple and their daughter who was behind them. But this time, she couldn't take more of the man's actions despite his thunderous voice. She chose to bury her fear and speak up to the man. "Don't you dare shout at my parents that way, you scumbag!" The girl snapped back. She had no clue who she was yelling at but all she knew was the man had no right to shout at her parents even though they held his money. The girl's parents were more terrifying. Haven't they told this girl not to speak out a word? They're trying to get things, but here is the worst case for them. They turned to the man with pleading eyes, not to mind what the girl was saying. Hearing her thin voice yelling, the man smirked, loving this..his eyes turned in the girl's direction , calmly. "Let's make this easier for you. Mr. Jones. Since I know you can't rise to that money even though I give you a year", he paused and watched the girl's reaction as her bit-on her lips wished to see the face of that bastard who was controlling her parents like prey. He loves it, the way she bit sexy on her lips without her not knowing how deadly hot she looks. And back to her parent's watery eyes. "Let's do it this way. I'll give you back your company and all the profits even add more interest for the company to grow more in all of western Europe." The parent's faces were delighted parents hoping the monster had changed his mind towards them, but not knowing they were expecting the worst. His eyes turned to the girl, she seemed cool now and he chuckled devilishly, not yet darling. You'll soon be mine. He thought. "Except you offered your daughter to me in exchange for the company." The lovely warmed smiles on their faces died off instantly at his words. How can they release their daughter to a mean man in exchange for company, a man she doesn't even know? "B-B-but Sir" "No, but Sir?" The man harshly cut the father short. "If you don't want it, then make a choice! Your daughter or your company! You only have two minutes to think about it!" The parents were shocked at what to do or say. This is their life and their daughter the man is making them choose from. If they choose their daughter, they'll eventually end up in the street again! Back to square one! After all these years of fighting to get to the top, would he fully let it go just for the sake of his daughter? What if he chose the company, he would become richer overnight? And that was a big success to grab. "Dad, Mum! Please don't leave me with him", the girl cried. She doesn't want to be in the hands of that monster. The parents looked at each other confusedly. What to do? Were the questions battling in their minds? The man sitting on the massive chair like a king looks at the parents and the weeping little angel at the other side of the room. To him, this is more than entertainment!
