Aman couldn’t help but notice that by sparing his life, Jagoan was showing a touch of benevolence in the midst of all this malevolence. He knew he needed to seize this opportunity without begging any further. The idea of Jagoan having a change of heart was too disheartening to even consider; the alternative could be much worse.

In his desperation, Aman felt compelled to speak to Jagoan. “Rest assured, Mr. Jagoan, once we reach Syria, I’ll work closely with Commander Hamid and give my all…”

Jagoan acknowledged Aman’s words with an approving nod and a smile on his face. “You know, Mr. Ramovich embodies the essence of Taoism, as we Chinese say. In this society, very few truly understand the principles of Taoism.”

Jagoan checked his watch and turned to Wesley. “Wesley, it’s getting light outside, and people are starting to arrive. Contact the ship, then head upstairs and have a serious talk with our associates. After that, set sail and get them out of the United States.”

Wesley nodded respectfully and asked Jagoan, “Mr. Jagoan, any specific instructions for this ‘talk’?”

Jagoan raised a single finger and spoke earnestly, “I have just one request: make them feel fear. Let their encounter with you leave a lasting mark, whether they leave or stay.”

Wesley understood the gravity of the situation and quickly reassured Jagoan, “You can count on us to handle it.”
