Dad aged decades overnight, and he sat slumped on the only old couch that had not been taken. "Sweetheart, I-I'm so sorry..." Dad's voice was hoarse with despair.

Distant music reeled into Naomi’s consciousness as she lay with little or no life on the sick bed. Hot tears fled opposite sides of her eyes, each drawing a visible line, hunting its way down to the back of her neck. “News at 18:00 GMT–Live on Open Network Centre Focus” The Headlines: -Gas stock market hits bullish run - Billionaire Business Mogul of Manhattan, Mr. Ethan, is set to file a controversial plea bargain. - Billionaire Business Mogul, Mr. Damian, collaborates with Piston Microfinance Bank in retrieving 3,000 Individual Buildings Used as Collateral to secure loans.”

He asked in panic but I shook my head looking at the both of them, “Doctor you need to check the news” Nurse Rose pulled out her phone immediately showing me, “Renowned billionaire Douglas withdrew his case against Aurum Health Empire after some of his dirty business secret of extorting the government funds got leaked on the internet early this morning” “Isn't this amazing?” Doctor Allan smiled, “Hmmm” I nodded “Who would have known that all his riches came from extorting government money and he dared to file a case”
