I’m Someone Else

Sean looked at William with a puzzled expression. “Are you telling me the truth? Is that the trouble Thomas is facing now?”

It was understandable that he found it hard to believe. From Sean’s perspective, this situation didn’t even qualify as trouble since Sean himself could resolve it without the intervention of his family.

“You still don’t believe me? Alright, let me take you to meet someone. Once you see them, you’ll understand,” William said while firmly gripping Sean’s arm and leading him toward one of the Peralta Family’s hourly hotels. They proceeded directly to the door of a room distinct from the others.

It was evident that this room stood apart from the others. Two imposing bodyguards stood sentry at the entrance.

“Mr. William!” The bodyguards respectfully greeted William.

William nodded in acknowledgment and led Sean inside.

The scene was chaotic inside the room. A middle-aged man lay helplessly bound on the floor while his muffled cries filled the room when he spotted the duo’s entrance.

William gestured for the bodyguards to remove the cloth from the man’s mouth.

“P-Please, mercy on me! I was wrong! I won’t do it again!” the man begged.

“Tell me, did Thomas kill Felice Lott?” William demanded.

“I… I don’t know!” the man stammered in response.

“Then, why did you fabricate evidence to implicate Thomas in Felice’s murder?” William pressed further.
