"I'll sign! I'll sign right away!" He desperately clung to the table, his legs swaying uncontrollably, devoid of any inkling of hope.
Alexander was no ordinary man. He was a devil, a tyrant, a ruthless character who knew no bounds. A lawless outlaw. The document must be signed, or death awaited.
"You could've avoided all this trouble," Alexander coldly snorted, shattering the palette in his hand. He released
Paul's head, his voice chilling, "you have one minute, don't makewait any longer!" Paul, his head throbbing with pain, raised a hand to cover the wound on his forehead. He staggered to the back of his desk, trembling as he fumbled to retrieve the official seal from the nearby safe.
