- Good evening, Valentina. Thomas replied.
- May i know, how the hell did you get into my house? I asked, pouring myself a glass of whiskey.
- A maid let me in.
I should have known better.
- And what do you want?
- How did your dinner at the Mosley's go?
- Not very well.
- Tell me more. He ordered firmly.
- And why should I? I asked.
- Because I'm asking you to.
- Interesting, except that's not how it works. No, I'm asking the questions, so tell me; did you or did you not try to have Ostwald Mosley killed?
- Yes. he answered after a few seconds of reflection.
- Well, I'm disappointed. I thought you were gifted enough to succeed in this kind of thing. For once, I was wrong.
He didn't answer, but I knew I had hurt his ego.
- Oh yes, Ostwald told my father that you were fucking me. So my father sent the dining table over and threatened to emasculate him. Lucky you, I'm a wonderful liar. Otherwise, you might not have any balls left by now.
Once again, he said nothing. I was pissing him off, I could tell by his clenched jaw and firmly closed stitches. I love getting him in that state, I find it hilarious.
- I also heard that you are a monster, and the worst kind. But who am I to judge? I added, lighting a cigarette.
- You see, that's what's funny. You ended up telling me everything. I thought you were smarter than that. For once, I was wrong. He said, a sly smile hanging on his lips.
My smile quickly faded. I'm going to kill him.
- What is even funnier, is that you drink my words, you have not questioned any of my statements, did I not tell you that I am a wonderful liar? How do you know I'm not lying? Maybe I settled up an alliance to assassinate you, like you did with Ostwald. The only difference is that I will not miss. I retorted with my natural assurance.
Of course, I had no intention of murdering him, at least not yet, but evoking this idea will probably remind him who he is talking to.
- Maybe it's me who's planning to kill you. Have you thought about that?
