"What's going on?" Victor was entering into his office when he saw many of the secretaries carring some books to the meeting room.

"You don't know? We suddenly got a new accountant" Greg, one of his colleagues told him, and Victor felt strange.

"Hey, who's next to Shanon?" Victor asked, observing the smiling man whom was walking next to Shanon.

"That's Henry... amm Wallas, man you should be here earlier, then you don't get the things" Greg answered back to him being a little pissed off.

Through the clear glass Victor could observe how Henry was entering making Sebastian end his call.

Sebastian was standing observing the city, then he turned to smile to Shanon and then he shake and gave a hug to Henry.

Victor only lowed his head and went to his office.

"So... you have a suspect ha?" Henry talked after Shanon left.

"Yes, but I need you man, you are the one who help me to send him to jail"

"He mess with the 'Familia' " Sebastian nodded, and sat. "Well then, better if I start with this pile of numbers"

"Then I leave you to do your job, you are the 'money cop' " Sebastian fixed his jacket and left Henry checking the books.

"Hey, do you think that one of accounting is going to get fired? I mean, look at this mess" Greg entered to Victor office and sat in front of him.

"Probably" Victor answered indifferent, and he begun some report about proyects.

After a while he stepped out of his office and saw in the crystal walls the numbers of the books and some others in red... the numbers were the money that he stealed.

Marked with red, there, everybody could see them, especially him. Henry was explaining something to Sebastian and the man suddenly fixed eyes on Victor, just like a predator hunting his prey.

Victor went to the cafeteria and ate with his colleagues, but he wasn't hungry, yet he had to eat and remain calm.

He begun to regret his bad choices but he comforted himself, because I was going to take a while to catch him, and for that time, he could dissapear without any trace.

He returned behind everyone else, and he stopped went he saw the red numbers.

"Don't worry, we are going to find and catch the one who did this, Griffin" Sebastian appeared from no where and patted Victor's shoulders.

Victor observed Sebastian's eyes and he realized that Sebastian was bragging in front of him. Maybe things well be more complicated.

The vivid tension of the place make Victor feel weird. He began to think in the many options that he have. He sat again on his place and tipped an email for Valery.

The answer was quick, the words that he wanted to read, it wasn't there.

"Let's talk later"

Valery was acting different since a few days ago, but yet they stick to the plan.

The day was over, and it was time to go home. Sebastian, Henry and Shanon were talking in the meeting office and went he stepped out the three of them look at him with severe eyes.

He opened the door, and Marvin didn't ran into him, like he used to, so Victor walked with precaution and heard the smiles on the kitchen.

"Daddy!!!" Marvin yelled meanwhile Nina and Charlotte face him, with big smiles.

"Welcome home" Charlotte put a plate on the table and Nina put the salad.

"Hi Victor" Nina smiled to him and they waited for an answer.

"Hi girls, are you making the dinner?" He tried to smile but his voice tone were anxious.

"Cheesy fingers" Marvin show his food to Victor.

"Sit, let's eat together" Charlotte pulled him and made him sit at the table and she served the food.

"How was your day?" Charlotte walked inside the studio and stood in front of Victor, she only heard a "mmph" from Victor and she made a move.

"Don't worry honey, everything will be okay" She hugged him, and he felt her love, and Victor hugged her back, while she was peeking in the monitor.

Some page about bank was open and Victor separated from him.

"I'm fine Charlotte, thank you" She smiled to him, and left the studio. She went to Marvin's room and she sent a message to Sebastian.

Back to Victor, he was chatting with Valery, and they accorded a place to meet.

"Victor, I'm going to sleep, you?" Charlotte was standing next to the door wearing a black pijama.

"Nope" He turned off his computer and stood. "I'm going to go out for a drink, don't wait for me" He stood next to Charlotte and she gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"Be safe" And she walked away from him. That make him feel odd, he expected some yells, fights but not that. It was more like she didn't care for him anymore.

"You'are smiling, is a woman right?" Henry told Sebastian after he drank his whisky.

"Have you f*cked her? Henry smiled at Sebastian's poker face and then he drank again.

"A gentleman's dignity" Sebastian left his cellphone on a table and he took a sip from his drink.

"You have dignity?" Henry mocked of him.

"I may not, but you have someone to catch"

***

"What are we going to do now?" Valery had her arms crossed and she was upset with him.

"Stick to the plan, and wait, soon this will be over."

"Yes, soon will be over"
