Nana rushed inside Shannon's room, without knocking she burst inside the room.

    Ryan, without thinking, scribbled his signature on the contract."Is there anything else?" Ryan inquired."Yes!" With a gun aimed at his head, Ryan raised his hands in surrender."Do you think I'm going to be so stupid to let you go after signing the contract? I thought you were smart, but then again, you're nothing but a dummy," Reuben cocked his gun and pointed it at Ryan.Ryan gulped. He was more concerned about Dennis.

Let's get in and talk business!" Ryan tried to keep his voice steady."There is nothing to discuss, Ryan. The contract is already signed, and that's it!" Reuben smirked. His eyes sparkled with a glint of triumph, the smugness in his gaze unmistakable.
