Honorable Hubby Behind Me

Chapter 59

After breakfast, Samuel sent Yvonne to the office. The general store was open for business, but there were clearly more customers going in and out of the place, and they did not look like your regular folk.

"What do you want to do now?" Samuel asked Manfred.

"Blake Coleman is dead. Someone has to clean up after the awful mess he left behind," Manfred replied.

Samuel nodded his head. It seemed that Manfred had decided to take up his old mantle again. This was good news because he could not rely on Johann's courage to accomplish great things. Now, he did not wish to invest any more time and energy into Johann.

"Tell me if you need anything," Samuel said.

Manfred's lips curled into a grin. "Blake Coleman is dead, yet the news has not caused a ruckus in Cloud City," he said. "You've helped enough. Instead, just tell me if you need anything."

"I'll remember that. A true man will always keep his word," Samuel answered, smiling.

Manfred whipped out a cigarette and thrust it toward him. "You've been quiet for three years now. What are you planning?" he asked.

Samuel waved his hand. "I still have errands to attend to. I'm going off first," he said.

Manfred flashed a rueful smile. "Any surprise that you will give me won't be small, will it?" he said to himself.
