"Shush!, it's me". Not believing her ears Rhea went into a phase of shock from disbelief. The bodyguard that had followed Benjamin turned on a flashlight putting some light into the darkness.

Jeremy's POV "Are you threatening me?" She asked, somewhat scared. I laugh inwardly. I have to admit that watching her walk into the restaurant to meet Michael without stopping her was a hard fit for me. But seeing how things proceeded I am quite relieved. He deserves all he had coming his way. The main issue now is how to make sure Dad and mom doesn't find out about this. Uncle Miles is a shrewd man and he might have informed Dad already. "Jeremy, am I going to be jailed for this?" She asked bringing me out of my thoughts. "You are too smart for the question you just asked, what do you think will happen?"
