134 In Demand

The next day, Anton received a meeting request from one Farhad Salib, of Afganistan. Anton had an inkling about purpose, but he would not stain his office with this man's dirt. Instead, he agreed to meet Mr. Farhad at the Imperial Palace Hotel.

In a private room, Anton came with his best men, Ha-joon and Chun-Ho with four more under his command. The second he entered, Farhad Salib was already there. Ten of Farhad's men stood behind him. 

The man wore an Islamic robe and a cap. His beard grown long and had very handsome features. His clothes down to his shoes reflected luxury. It was as expected of a drug lord. 

"I'm only going to give you five minutes," said Anton as he took the seat in front of the round table, opposite to Farhad. "What do you want from me?"

Farhad Salib smiled mischievously and said, "I've heard… you are having problems… I thought I come here and lend you a hand."
