"There," Mr. King's lawyer said, "Mr. Dervish, sign here please and then you can be on your way." He passed the page over to Charles. Charles signed on the dotted line, completely unaware he had just signed his life away. He set the pen down.

"Would you like me to call one of my servants to escort you out?" Mr. King offered.
"No, that's quite alright I can find my way out," replied Charles. He exited the office and left the property, then called another carriage that took him to Chicago Union Station.
