When There Is Nothing Left But Love

Some time had passed when John finally looked at me with misty eyes and queried, “Who did this?”

I lowered my head and tried to hold back my tears but to no avail as they flowed down my cheeks like a broken string of pearls. “Cameron and the Moore family!”

Furious, he threw the phone onto the ground, thus attracting the attention of others in the cafe.

A waitress then rushed over to our seat and asked in a timid voice, “Sir, i-is there anything that I can help you with?”

“Get out of my face!” he yelled angrily.

To prevent things from exacerbating, I turned toward the waitress and said with a smile, “Sorry to have troubled you! Everything’s fine here.”

With that, the waitress walked away quietly. “I’m gonna kill the two of them!” John sprang up from his seat and was about to head out, but I managed to stop him.

After regaining my composure, I turned to him and explained, “The Moore family is backed up by the mob. If I could get rid of them that easily, I would’ve done it myself months ago.”

After hearing my statement, he sat back down and looked at me, asking. “What do you want to do then?”

I went quiet for a while before saying, “Bro, you have to help me!” It was the first time that I had addressed him in such a way instead of his name since he moved to R Province.

He was stunned in place, unable to believe what he had just heard. “Letty, what did you just call me?” An elated expression started creeping onto his face.
