Three hooligans at.tacked a defenseless girl, tried to rob her, and were sure that they were simply looking at a frightened and helpless victim: but they could not even imagine what would happen a minute later.

“Exactly. Just you and me.”

One of them froze.

“Why are you smiling?”

“Because you have no idea what you’ve gotten yourself into,” she replied.

The leader stepped forward, irritated.

“Stop pretending. The phone and the chain. Now.”

And at that moment, from around the bend in the alley, from the shadows of the trees, two large men slowly emerged. They were the girl’s bodyguards. Tall, dressed in black, with cold faces. They moved calmly, without fuss, but their gait conveyed a sense of power.

The hooligans had no idea they’d just tried to rob the daughter of one of the richest men.

The boys turned around.

“Who’s that?”

One of the guards came closer and said curtly,

“Problems?”

Veronica didn’t even turn around.

“Not anymore,” she replied calmly.

The smiles vanished from the boys’ faces.
