Do you have any idea what that would have cost you? Your life, for one!” He yelled at her. Betty's face paled, the night seemed longer than she expected with unexpected events but she refused to back down. "You don't know what you're talking about, Mateo.

She walked to the door, Her hand trembling as she reached for the door handle. When she opened the door, she was met with unfamiliar faces. Two men stood outside her room. One of them was the guard who had restrained her earlier, the other was a new face but there was someone she was expecting to see, a common face she had grown too acquainted with, she was expecting to see her guard standing outside and he was nowhere to be seen. “Where is he?”.
