“Look... Yes, I burned down your auction house, but your men asked for it. Ryan’s death isn’t my fault. Maria tortured me for days. She’s lucky I didn’t kill her right away, and now you think you can just take her with you? Tosh... What do you want, then?” Seated in his father’s customary chair, Jim casually addressed Josh, who stood at the hall’s center.
“When my thirst for vengeance is quenched, then we’ll reassess my sentiments, he remarked nonchalantly.
Josh, maintaining a pleasant demeanor, proposed, “Why not set a condition, Mr. Carter? Your influence is considerable, you could make it reasonable for a young girl.”
With a visible display of disdain, even disgust, Jim retorted, “I wouldn’t take anything from your family, even for free. They’re disgusting.”
Seeing Jim’s firm stance, Josh appeared somewhat helpless as he suggested, “If you’re set on revenge, I’m willing to offer myself in exchange for my sister.”
