Man of less words

"Daddy!", the little girl who was sticking close to her mommy meekly came to life as she ran towards the man.

"Ruby", the man cried with a voice full of affection as he hugged the little girl tightly in his arm. He checked to see if everything was fine or not. "Ruby, are you hurt? Did anyone do anything to you?" The man was flustered and once again kissed the little head in front of him.

"Honey", a silky smooth voice called him drawing his attention from his daughter to the woman who was standing in front of him. She was a fair and simple lady. He hurriedly went to her and hugged her tightly. "You okay? What are you two doing here?"

Thousand thoughts were running in his mind as he resumed his action of hugging the two of his beloved people. 'He might be thinking to kill me before them giving them more mental torture or this devil might be thinking about ruining the life of these two people who were the apple of his eyes.' He tried to think positive that he might have brought them to threaten him to spill out the beans about his boss. Although he was loyal to his boss it didn't mean a shit in front of his family. He was willing to anything now as long as the two people in his arms were safe and well.

"Honey, we are fine. Nobody treated us badly but we are also confused why we were invited to such a big mansion. They said something about you being sick….but you look fine… only a little worn out." The wife asked with concern as she noticed his pale lips and the heavy bags under his red shot eyes. Although she didn't know what the situation was she could tell something was wrong. Listening to his wife he felt relieved realizing his line of work was still unknown to her. She would have to know it sooner or later but he wanted to be the one who will tell her after she was ready to accept it.

Rena looked at the man who looked so high and mighty even as he sat there expressionless. Rena was a smart woman. She knew her husband wasn't a normal security guard but whenever she tried to pry further into his profession her husband used to change subject and pretend as if he didn't listen to it. Looking at the present scenario he must have done something wrong but what? Countless thought ran across her mind as an unknown fear crept into her heart.

Looking at this family reunion the three men sat in silence. When around five minutes had passed a cold voice spread throughout the room. "Since it looks like all of us are here shall we talk about business?"  "You know what I want from you, don't you?" He stared straight into the eyes of the pale man. The man felt that he wasn't asking question but rather he had already decided everything and was just passing down his decree.

The man fell down on his knees as he spoke trembling. "I am ready to offer anything in exchange for your mercy to my family." Rena didn't know anything but she also copied the action of her husband. "Whatever he has done to offend you I beg you to let me also pay for his crime."

Looking at the scene which looked identical to a historical setup Chris couldn't help but sigh deeply as he knew they had misunderstood his brother. The problem was also with his brother who was really a man of few words.

He could only understand him as he had been with him for the longest period of time. When he turned to look at specimen of a human kind that is  his brother another heavy sigh left his mouth before he could even realize. The man was expressionless as ever but his eyes couldn't betray the confusion brewing inside him.

He had always been an observant man so he had felt like he had seen the man somewhere before. When he was studying crime and psychology as an additional course in university he had gained accessed to some of the cases and he had been interested in this particular case which seemed to have been modified and changed to match the interest of certain individual and party.

Although it was old he dug up all the events surrounding it. He wanted to know the truth tho it didn't meant a thing for the convicted person now. He had been successful in finding all the facts surrounding this case.
