"I already know what's going through your mind Smile," Jacobi said. "I know you want to go and help Alberto and see what's going on in the place where you've lived all your life. It all boils down to you Mount. You're making the final decision. Smile goes or he stays?"
Mount stared at Smile for a while and Jacobi unlike everyone else could see the spark of envy in his eyes. The one thing that he wanted the most, Smile had it on a platter of gold – the trust and love of Alberto Moraéles.
"You can go," Mount sighed. "If I know Alberto well, then there is one thing I know about him and that is the fact that he would never lay his hands on Smile. He might go crazy and decide to kill every single person in the world but I tell you this – he would never kill you, Smile. You're safe in his presence. Go and see what's going on there, try and negotiate with him and get back to us all in one piece would you?
