352. Jasper - Business

When we found Olivia in the forest, I never once thought that she would turn out to be such an extraordinary woman. In the past three months, she has kept blossoming, coming out of her shell, and I can't wait to see what the next three months bring, and after that, the next three, and so on.

Her entire face lights up as she says to me, "We are in!"

I let out a shout of joy. It's only due to Olivia that one of my dreams will come true-to be my own boss. Olivia will be my partner. After all, she was the one who obtained the money we needed.

After Olivia healed my knee, I decided to go back to working for the Elders. I never liked that I had to retire so early. I always felt useless. That's why I tried to start a business on the farm, but it didn't go as well as I thought it would. Since my knee is now like new, I am eager to win my own money again since my idea of working with abused horses and finding new owners for them failed because of Jason and his father-I couldn't risk having more animals on the property only to have them killed. Many who work with abused animals already learned of what happened on the farm and are more than weary to let me know of cases of mistreated horses. I don't know how this happens, but I bet Jason is behind everything. That little shit. He must know how much Olivia loves horses, and he's trying to take it away from her. At least we have Artax, Speckles, and her filly. And then there's Juniper, who thrives being here. She escaped a few times yesterday, and I'm about to build a fence so tall she won't be able to jump over or put a GPS in her ass and let her be. At the end of the day, she always returns home. We also put an electric fence around the property because we can never be too careful. Especially when Olivia is still in danger.

Senator Deymar seems to enjoy a wonderful life in Washington, surrounded by Dukes and it is currently impossible to get to him. Ciro is looking for a way to breach his security, but it will take a bit more time.

We are patient because even if it takes years, we will make Senator Deymar pay for what he did to Olivia and for the deaths of our friends. Rueben even suggested going directly to Washington and killing the Senator when he is in public. We dropped the idea because we want him to suffer before we finally kill him, and because we don't want to give the impression that the USA is under some terrorist attack. It could send people in a panic, more so when they learn that the Lords are behind Senator Deymar's death. This has to be well planned. We are thinking of a way to show everyone who he really is first.
