Maurice had been looking out the car window for some time now.

Darius instantly understood what the boy meant and responded with an unexpectedly calm tone, “That I am.However, I don’t think poorer people should get killed at random or have their dignity attacked by others.I know what you’re thinking—I shouldn’t have executed Austin Anderson.”

Those candid words made Maurice’s eyes widen.
