Mr.

Berry, its time to make your choice .

Before you make your choice , can we first confirm who the victim is ? Griffin asked , his voice dripping with sarcasm .

Damn ! You guys are trash ! You set me up and even got me involved with this old hag ! Mr.

and Mrs.

Mr.

Newton continued with his threat : Even if the person you forced wasnt Hope , shes still one of our servants ! This is a crime of assault ! Youll either cooperate , or youll go to prison ! No matter what , the collaboration had to be finalized !
