Frank looked at the two women in silence, his eyes were sharp, and he looked like a refined and malicious noble with those regal clothes he was wearing while sitting in the old chair.
He was not losing this fight, he already knew a lot, and he would never be easily convinced with lies from these two women who were willing to sell of a little girl because they thought she and her monster pet could sell for some coins.
However, the two continued in denial, trying to convince him of brand-new lies.
"P-Please, you have to understand!" said Felicia. "That money is always stolen from us by the thugs, there are so many thugs here…"
"Yeah! They always come knocking at the door and asking for more money, if we don't give it to them, they say they'll kidnap the kids and sell them off as slaves or even worse… s-sexual slaves!" said Cecilia.
"We have to lie about this or else they'll come for our heads…" said Felicia.
