"Ben, the president wants you to look after us, doesn't she? Now we have no money for food, so can you tell the president to give us our wages upfront?" The fishermen pleaded with Jay.

Jay had a fierce look on his face. The fishermen were blatantly asking him to reason with the she-devil, but he did not want anything to do with her at all.

"I have some cash on me. I'll lend it to all of you first."

Stan Hitchens said wickedly, "Ben, where is all this money coming from?" His tone was full of suspicion.

Jay glowered at him with an ice-cold expression in his eyes, making Stan cower a little. He always thought that hopeless piece of trash had a horrifying stare.

Tommy quickly diffused the situation and said, "Come on, Hitchens. If Ben is willing to lend us some money, he'll be helping us. We should be thanking him. Why should we care where his money comes from?' "That's right," the other fishermen echoed.

Stan watched the other fishermen being respectful to Jay out of a sudden. He felt bitter inside and snickered. "Hehe, his disease is infectious. What he has is all dirty money. Once we take it, maybe we'll get infected too. I'm not taking it no matter what. Those who are brave enough, go ahead."
