“Castillo, you have a visitor,” Stanfield spoke. I looked through the little glass of the steel door and furrowed my eyebrows.

“I’m not expecting anyone. Tell them to leave.”

Stanfield opened the door and pushed me against the wall before he forcefully put me in handcuffs. “Hey!” I spoke, irritated. “Did you not hear me?”

“I did.” Stanfield chuckled. “But I’m not going to tell Mario Castillo to come back another time. You can do it yourself.”

Wait a minute.

“My dad came to visit?”

“The one and only,” Stanfield confirmed while he guided me out. The times he came to visit weren’t many, and I could count them on my hands. When he visited, it usually didn’t mean any good and often meant Santiago had screwed up again.

The only thing I could hope for was that this was perhaps just a fatherly visit and had nothing to do with Santiago. “Is this necessary?” I frowned at the handcuffs. Stanfield gave me a sarcastic look. “You’re like a hyena. Who knows when you’ll attack?”

“Smart boy.” I chuckled at Stanfield. He was undeniably still traumatized from the first two years, but I had changed a lot. No matter how much anyone would provoke me, I would not start a fight and especially not

I turned my head and looked through the steel door glass to make eye contact with some guy. He showed his wrist and pointed at his tattoo with a smug grin on his face. It was a member of the Hernandez, and judging by the fact that he had the nerve to do this, it probably meant he had no idea who he was dealing

with.

“He’s new here,” Stanfield commented. “Yes, I can see that.” I chuckled. “He’s lucky I’ll be leaving soon.”

We continued walking, and before I knew it, we were already in the hallway. “Nervous?” Stanfield asked. So he did care about me?

“Boss, how is your relationship with your parents?” I teased him. “Do you have a wife? Children?”

“Is that a threat?”

“Oh, please.” I laughed at Stanfield. “If it were a threat, you would’ve known.”

“I’m happily married with three children,” Stanfield spoke. That hideous-looking man, married with three children? Not possible.
