Chapter 19
Elena could tell the great Samuel had given in.
Samuel knew nothing good would come out of it if he
kept fighting Emmanuel. Hence, he wanted to find an
excuse to give in.

In other words, Samuel was just a paper tiger. As the
saying went, the more one owned, the greater the fear
of losing everything. They were no longer the same
person when they had nothing.
Emmanuel, on the other hand, was giving everything
he had because he had nowhere to turn to.
He was no fool, either. He quickly questioned without

killed Emmanuel if not for his fear of losing to the latter.
“Are you saying you’re refusing to pay and want us to
leave?”
“Hold on. Let me ask the boss.”
