They entered a room that looked more like an executive office in a high–end corporation than at warehouse. It was furnished with top–of–the–line office furniture, Including a large black leather sofa. 

“Go ahead, make yourself comfortable,” Brandon said, guiding her to the sofa. 

Deborah settled into the indicated spot, watching as the blond man moved to the desk in the room, retrieving something from the drawers before returning to her side. 

He handed her a box and then sat down directly across from her. 

[What’s this?] she wrote. 

“Let’s just say this is the reason I’ve been looking for you.” 

She was even more confused by his words but, seeing the look in his eyes, she opened the box to 

examine its contents. 

The contents didn’t seem extraordinary or special–just two letters, a folder with some documents, and a jewelry box. 

The jewelry box caught her attention as it was identical to the one her mother had owned. Upon opening it, she could confirm that it was her mother’s, filled with her jewelry. This confused her even more because she remembered Vanessa had kept that jewelry box. So why was it here with this man? 

“Heh, judging by your expression, you’re probably wondering what all this means,” Brandon said, noting her nod. “Before I explain, tell me something. Deborah, Do you know who I am?” 

[You introduced yourself as Brandon.] 

“Haha, right you are. You know, I like you, so you’re one of the few who can call me by my real name. But most people know me as the Great Shadow of the Light, or Vox.” 

[Those are interesting nicknames.] 

“Aren’t they?” He laughed. 

[Why do you need to hide your identity?] 

“For safety. In my line of work, I’m always up against the police, and I need the fastest and safest routes to escape or hide from them,” he said, noticing that she was paying close attention. 

[So, you do things outside the law?). 

“Exactly. I handle special jobs that involve getting rid of people or selling objects you can’t find in any regular store,” he said, shifting in his seat. “For example, I took on a request from a certain individual to kill a beloved father and grandfather so that his daughter would inherit his fortune immediately.” Deborah’s eyes widened in fear as she looked into Brandon’s eyes. This was very specific, confirming her worst fear. [Are you telling me my grandfather died because you killed him?] 

“Strictly speaking, I’m innocent. That job was done by my father,” he clarified, standing up to approach her. “But as the new boss, I must know all the missions of my predecessors, including the special missions I inherited because they couldn’t complete them.”
