"Yes, the bonds are in my possession."
In a dimly lit hut, Orlando uttered these words to a gathering of Alfalfa City's underground bosses.
By now, he knew that no matter how much he denied ever seeing those bonds, nobody would believe him anymore.
Since that was the case, Orlando decided to confess outright and prepared to make a big hit out of it!
His opening line immediately left the bosses gasping for air.
No one could remain calm faced with such immense wealth.
Orlando's eyes slowly swept over everyone's faces as he calculated his next move.
"So, do you all want me to hand over the bonds to Capen?" he continued.
After a moment of silence, someone stepped forward and asked, "Orlando, what do you want?"
Orlando gave a faint smile. A trace of madness flashed in his eyes as he stirred up the crowd.
