Enrique paused, the chess piece still between his fingers. He hadn’t intended to get involved, but this unexpected turn-his youngest son getting mixed up in things for the sake of a woman-truly caught him off guard.

‘Well, that’s a first,’ he wondered.

Enrique asked, “What exactly happened?”

Gareth’s face lit up with hope. He immediately put on a pitiful act and wailed, “Enrique, you know how worthless my son is, but he’s my only child. Lately, he took a liking to some girl. Who could’ve known she was under Mr. Turner’s protection? That’s how this whole mess started.

“After all, our families do have ties. It’s one thing for my son to get beaten up by Mr. Turner disciplining a younger one. But now he wants to put my son behind bars? Isn’t that just blatant bullying?”
