Your father sat at the kitchen table, face buried in his hands. “I’m millions in debt with the casino club,” he trembled. “Theron Cullen runs it. They’ll take everything..our house, the car, maybe even my life.”
Determined, you said, “I can’t let that happen. I’ll talk to Theron.”
“Don’t! He’s dangerous!” your father warned.
That night, you entered the casino, spotting Theron at a private table.
“What do you want?” he asked, his gaze piercing.
“I’m here about my father’s debt,” you said. “I want to help him pay it back.”
He leaned back, smirking. “And why would I listen to you?”
“I’ll do whatever it takes. Just give him a chance.”
Theron leaned closer, his expression serious. “If you fail, it won’t just be your father who pays the price. Are you ready for that?”
