Christopher sat in the train station in South Bend as he waited for another train to take him back to Chicago. Soon, the correct train pulled into the station and Christopher got on. He rode for about an hour, got off at Millennium Station, then signaled a carriage that then took him to the King Estate. He knocked on the door and the butler answered.
"Christopher Knight," announced Christopher. The butler's eyes widened, "Yes, Yes, please, come in," he ushered him in then looked up and down the street before closing the door.
"He's in his study. Can you escort yourself over there or do you require my services?" asked the butler nervously.
"No, that's alright Alfred," replied Christopher smiling crookedly. He loved making people squirm when they knew who he was. Alfred sighed in relief and walked away. Christopher walked down the hall to Mr. King's office and knocked on the door.
"Enter!" said Mr. King. Christopher opened the door and stepped inside.
"Oh!" said Mr. King surprised, "I wasn't expecting you Christopher. What can I do for you?"
"I just came to tell you the deed has been done," he announced calmly.
Mr. King nodded silently, "Well then, I guess I better get started on the legal business for the company," he reached into his desk drawer and pulled out a wad of cash. "How much do I owe you this time?" he asked Christopher. "500 dollars a month, for 12 months," replied Christopher. "Right, right," he counted out the initial amount then handed it to Christopher.
