Getting to the apartment, Max saw Olive looking so dejected. Olive is someone who always wants to look good no matter her situation. Seeing her look this way was weird even for me. "Ok get up, what the hell happened here," I asked, lifting her off the ground. "King was here just now," Olive answered. "What!" He yelled, dropping her back to the ground in shock. "You mean King was here? And you made me come upstairs right after he left?" Max yelled " What if he saw me? Are you out of your mind?" He yelled again at her. Olive tried to get herself together but she couldn't, everything she worked hard for could crumble before her eyes if Mr. King takes action and reveal the evidence he has against her.

Max looked at her for a while and suddenly he smiled at her and they both smiled. He picked up his phone and made a phone call. “Get me
