I still remember the day I told Nash about it. ("Hey, Nash…") (The bearded old man looked up from his news tablet. "What is it, child? I'm busy.") ("I don't understand.

Perhaps getting to the street, I would find a decent person to ask for help. These people looked like they were enjoying the way they were. They looked like they loved poverty very much and relished in it. How could one be happy living in a slum? They looked like they enjoyed it anyway. Walking further, I realized that this vicinity was the same. There were a lot of homeless people who stunk. It was very obvious that they hadn't had their bath.

Those children immediately jumped on them like wild dogs and began to fight for these candies. Looking at the scene unfolding before his eyes, Sol gently touched his lips and muttered to himself, “It’s true that all places are the same. The Golden Triangle was like this before, and now the slums of this country are the same too. Poverty is the original sin.” After saying that, Sol lit a cigar and walked into the slum under the accompaniment of two of his men. After they walked through the alley, Sol and his peers went deep into the slum. In the end, they arrived at a building that was built on a hillside.

“Shut up.” But Nadia only smirked, her confidence unwavering. “Do you know what happens to people who kidnap someone like me?” She looked at them one by one, her dark eyes glinting with challenge. “My fiancé is Theodore Thatcher. A billionaire. A man with more power than you can imagine.” The men stiffened at the mention of his name.

They had landed at the airport that morning and had gone from one meeting after the next and now had only just arrived at the hotel they were staying at and all she wanted was a hot shower and a good night's sleep for tomorrow's busy schedule. Sadly,Mr Gabriel wasn't done working, and that meant no sleep for Reid until he said so. “Yes, Mr. Gabriel”, She said keeping her voice emotionless.
