"Georgia?"
Efren's voice was noticeably softer as he spoke her name.
Gone was his usual cold demeanor, replaced now by tenderness and cautious care.
At that moment, the men understood that this young girl must be the rumored apple of Efren's eye.
To be honest, they felt a twinge of panic. They all knew Efren treasured Georgia like a precious baby.
Whenever there was good news about her, Efren would be in high spirits for days. He might even turn a blind eye to employees embezzling company funds or rival gangs encroaching on his territory.
But bad news triggered terrifying rage. Even if business was booming, Efren would make everyone miserable.
The most memorable flare-up came when word spread that his precious baby was dating someone.
During that time, the staff of the Serrano Group worked overtime daily. The slightest wrinkle on a document brought severe reprimand.
Poor sales figures or unsatisfactory reports elicited fury.
Under such pressure, employees lost an average of 15 pounds each.
Efren's friends fared no better.
They, too, lived under storm clouds.
Though none had met Georgia in person, through these experiences, all knew that her well-being determined Efren's mood.
So when they saw the scene and guessed Georgia's identity, they felt sure Peter would suffer.
At the same time, they worried their idle gossip and failure to help might make them suffer as well.
As the men fretted, Georgia heard Efren's voice and opened her eyes.
