Joanne’s shrill cries rang in the house again.

Marcus found it lame and dusted his hands with a clap. He pulled William’s wallet out of the latter’s pocket and left.

If there was no meal at home, he would go eat at a restaurant!

After Marcus left, Joanne sat on the floor in a daze for a very long time with despair brimming in her eyes.

William groaned and moaned as he struggled to get off the floor and then limped into the study. He felt in his pocket—luckily, Marcus only wanted money and had not taken his phone. There was not much money left in his wallet, and on his phone were the last of his savings.

William sighed and dialed a number. It rang for a long time without being picked up. Just as he was about to hang up, a sinister voice said, “Mr. Jenner?”

“Hah, you remember me?” William could hear the mockery in the words but he did not have time for that, so he asked directly, “Phil Nelson, when are you taking Marcus away?”
