Sadie lunged for the check and upon seeing the amount, her face lit up with delight, "Two million dollars!! Thank you, Mr. Clemens!" "It's no bother; you've earned it," Micah's lips curved into a sly grin. "Consider it your bonus for getting Mr. Wood to swallow that laxative." "But, didn't you say you were going to deduct it from the necklace money?" Sadie's heart sank with an ominous hunch.
Coco trembled on her shoulder as if it sensed Micah Clemens as a predator.

Micah Clemens shot a glance at the creature.

Micah's eyes shifted from Coco to a remote control sitting nearby.

If you save me, I'll sign it right away..." "Are you sure?" Micah's voice taunted, "Just don't claim I forced you." "No, I won't. It was voluntary. Letin, now! The wolf, it's really coming-" "Alright, you beggedfor it." The recording stopped abruptly.

"Be good," Micah Clemens took back the debt agreement, folded it neatly, and slid it into his pocket, "Behave well and you might just be rewarded. Disobey, and the agreement stands with additional penalties." He stood up, patted her cheek, and added, "Think about which option is better for you." Sadie glared at him with deep-seated hatred but remained silent.
"I'm off then," Micah said, turning to leave without a backward glance) "I hape you've cto your senses by the tI return." As he walked away, Sadie shook her fist at his retreating figure, cursing him silently.
"Mia, Nathan, Noah...," Coco suddenly screamed, "Scared! Scared!"
