"Boss was right when he warned me," Bernard snarled, recognizing the man on the ground as Luke.

Luke glanced at Bernard with misty eyes before losing consciousness.

"Tie him in the basement and make sure he doesn't leave alive after I flee," Bernard told the two guards, who promptly grabbed up Luke and took him away.

Bernard knew he had to act swiftly after realizing his every action was being closely monitored. He had to leave as soon as possible before another person arrived.
