"Well... I don't have one right now"
Toby who stepped up quickly immediately paused for a moment. "You were so quick to get a solution when m3managed my case with Billy money, even you also immediately have an alternative name for my future wives"
Albert could only be silent. It's hard to dismiss Toby's opinion when his mind isn't clear. Obviously, the two cases are very different. The case of Toby and Billy money is not related to life. But the one now... Toby's life is the stakes.
Only one mistake, then Albert can end up being the killer Toby indirectly.
*******
Right now I'm looking at a paper with a line of words that string together sentences about the benefits I get when I leave Toby, of course by pinning the title of widow and widower on me and Toby.
The main thing that is most tempting is the word peace. Tidal has a camera, fans, or hater. I'll be back to being the ordinary man I once was before I knew Toby.
And so will our daughter. The normal life. At least until he had to go home to become his father's successor. At least he'll get 50% if Toby also has a child from a previous marriage.
Wh why?
Because I saved Toby's career before. That sounds.... An outrageous calculation. I feel less sincere with the rewards that are fairly expensive.
Wh why?
Simply put, in my life formula there is nothing from my life that can be measured by numbers.
So when I have sacrificed, can I recompense with sacrifice as well?
I grumbled softly and turned my gaze to my daughter who seemed to be sleeping soundly and satisfied after taking a sip of her favorite food from me.
"If you were me... Kira - what do you think you chose, baby?" I whispered in my heart while rubbing her chubby and blushing cheeks.
I chose to re-enter the paper. I plan on reading it a few more times before the deadline is over.

" Three months.... I think it's enough for you to make a decision, as well as for your daughter to take a flight" Papa said the sentence quietly and firmly.
I'm still frozen, though,
"On your agreement with Toby, you can do it. I'm sure Toby didn't force you next to him for free, did he?"
I wanted to tell Papa back then, that I never sold myself. Even though the man was Tamlan, popular and wealthy. It even became the dream of almost all women.
But....
"I'll consider Pa... But I need a break to think straight"
"Of course" Papa began to move from his seat and began to prepare to leave. "Three months Sandra, no more"
"And if it doesn't...."
"Nobody likes to be rejected"
"Can I count this as a threat?"
"As much as you think, I'm just expressing my feelings"
Papa turned his steps opposite to my position. His aging body was still strong even though his body movements had signaled old symptoms.
"Pa..." I ventured to stop the powerful old man's steps.
"Did Papa never like me even once?"
Papa who was about to hold the doorknob immediately pointed his face at me.
"Don't get me wrong, Sandra... You have almost everything I love, we discuss the same topic even have a similar taste in art. It's just.."
This time Papa's face again looked straight at the door leaf which was only 10 centi away from him.
" I'm just a business man who of course has a perspective advantage "
" Do I have any at all? "
" It's not your fault.... But the fact that you're your father's son, who hid his pancreatic syndrome in his late practice. It hurt confidence in my bussines who are also engaged in chemistry "
" Daddy got pancreatic syndrome? "
"All alcoholics have that potential"
I nailed and smiled.
The door rattles back sounding.
"Do you know that your son has the same thing?"
